Bro. John!
I want to share with you a wonderful dream I had last night. It was short but so absolutely defining of who our God is. And how much we need Him.
In the dream, we were singing and dancing around with our hands in the air. It was a scene likened unto the Old Testament people praising God with dance and timbrels. We were thanking Him and praising Him for all the things He was and what He had done and what He had saved us from. When I woke up, I could not remember all the things we had praised Him for in song, except for one significant line:
“He saves us from delusionary thinking”
I looked up the meaning of “delusion”: Something that is falsely or delusively believed or propagated (to cause to spread out and affect a greater number)
I also saw that the opposite of delusion is TRUTH!
It was so sweet to my soul this morning – – “He saves us from delusionary thinking” Realizing that HE is the reason we believe what we believe. That it is HIM saving us from the lies of Xty affecting this whole world. It is HE who is saving us daily from the deceit. Oh, how desperately we need to be saved from our own thoughts and ways! As the Spirit spoke through Sister Lou several years ago: “The whole world is deceived.”
I am so thankful that the Lord comes to remind us that it is HE who is keeping us, and not we ourselves. Our Creator, our Shepherd, and our Savior!
Mmmmm, what a great start to the day! I feel all wrapped up in Jesus!

Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.” Psalm 149:3
