Humbled for Service
Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, For wisdom and might are His. – Daniel 2: 20 b
Today, Sunday morning, the 1st December 2019, I was resting on my bed and then drifted into sleep. And the Lord gave me this dream, whose message I believe is telling us that the hour is later than we could be thinking.
In the dream, I was at a touristic hotel, possibly on the Kenyan coastline, but I am not sure as it could have been elsewhere.
It was a beautiful afternoon and I was outside at the back side of the hotel that was facing the sea. There were tables and chairs, small restaurant type tables that seat a maximum of 4 persons. And these tables together with their chairs were placed about 30 meters (100 feet) from the shoreline of the sea. The tables were spaced out about 3 meters (10 feet) apart, so that you could not hear what the people on the next table were talking about. The ground was slightly higher in level, and provided a flat place for sitting and observing the surroundings and the sea. There were many such tables at the back of this hotel, and many guests were there seated and also walking around the shoreline.
I was there seated alone on one such table enjoying the picturesque panorama of the sea. It was quite a clean sea shore, and the sound of the crushing waves was somewhat soothing and relaxing. Many guests too were enjoying themselves. And I could see people from all walks of life here. All colors, all races, all beliefs, were represented here.
The time was exactly 4:00 pm, and I said to myself that I would spend another hour there and leave at exactly 5:00pm. A waiter came and brought me a lovely fruit cocktail juice with a fruit garnishing at the rim of the glass. I cannot remember the particular fruit that was used for the garnishing, but inside the glass I could see the meltdown of various colors of fruits that had been put together to make the cocktail. It looked very delicious, and my taste buds could hardly wait.
The waiter was a native African, my fellow dark skinned man, and this is why I believe that the hotel could be somewhere on the shores of our country. He served me with a lot of humility and selflessness, I remember noticing and appreciating that.
I asked him, “What time are you closing the hotel?”
He answered, “At 3:00 p.m.”
“But it’s already 4:00 p.m.” I said.
The waiter answered and said “Yes, we are supposed to be closed by now”.
Relevant Scriptures:
Matthew 24: 36 – 44
[36] “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. [37] But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. [38] For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, [39] and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. [40] Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left. [41] Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left. [42] Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. [43] But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. [44] Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.
The Coming of the Son of Man
Luke 17: 26 – 30
[26] And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: [27] They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. [28] Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; [29] but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. [30] Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.
The Day of the Lord
1 Thessalonians 5: 1-11
[1] But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. [2] For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. [3] For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape. [4] But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. [5] You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. [6] Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober. [7] For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk are drunk at night. [8] But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation. [9] For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, [10] who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him.
[11] Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing.
