In the Care of The Holy Ghost
A Gift of Knowledge
I had a dream that a black woman, dressed in white, had a baby and it was a very precious child. The black woman loved her child so much I could see it in her eyes. With her was a white woman (also dressed in white) who saw the black woman with her child and could see the great love the black woman had for her child. The black woman asked the white woman if she would take care of the child for her. The white woman was amazed at the thought of it. The black woman told the white woman that the white woman was free and she could offer the child more than she could. All she had was her great love for the child. The white woman said the child was better off with her because of the great love the black woman had, but in her heart she knew that, in a way, she had more to offer the child. She also knew her love for the child was nowhere near the love the black woman had. The black woman handed the child to the white woman and then she took her own life. The white woman couldn’t believe her eyes and she felt such a great sense of responsibility for the child knowing the price that was paid so that she could care for the child. – END OF DREAM –
A few days later the Lord told me the dream was about Jesus (the black woman) and the Holy Ghost (the white woman). –

INTERPRETATION:
______________________________
When Jesus ascended into heaven to be at the right hand of the Father he promised to return again for his bride, the church. What we often overlook is that this means Jesus is not with us in the flesh. We should know and understand the effect this reality ought to have on our faith and relationship with God. When we say we wait for His return we are necessarily conceding that we know He is not here on earth with us. To put it in another way, if you are waiting for someone to come, you are, by default saying he is not with you.
So how is Jesus with us then? Whose care are we in? Jesus has left us in the care of the Holy Ghost until His return. This is an undeniable truth revealed by the Holy Scriptures. Remember, Jesus said to His despairing disciples when He was leaving them that they should rejoice, not just for Him because He was going back to be with His Father, but also because it was expedient that He should leave and send the comforter, even the Holy Ghost to abide with them. By the presence of the Holy Ghost, Jesus can dwell with all of us all at once. The Holy Ghost is the omnipresence of God.
It is by the Holy Spirit that we have fellowship with the Father and the Son. Ephesians 2:18 says, “for through Him (Jesus) we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.” Through the sacrifice of Jesus, who gave His own life (for no one took it, He gave it up willingly just like the black woman in the dream), and by the power and care of the Spirit (Holy Ghost) believers can come to the Father. The Holy Ghost is our teacher, guide, comforter and the means by which we have access to the Father. Of course, it is all made possible by the shed blood of Christ on Calvary. So it is through Jesus, by the Holy Ghost, to the Father. Through, by and to. This is the working of the Trinity and the Holy Ghost is critical for the integrated workings of our fellowship with God.
The Holy Ghost is a person, the third person of the Trinity. The dream shows that the Holy Ghost is our nanny. We should throw ourselves into the care of the Holy Ghost until the return of our Lord and Savior. If Jesus were here we would have to make a pilgrimage to see and hear Him and to sit at His feet and be taught. We would all have to go to where He was to be in His presence. But now, by God’s great design for this age of grace, we can all be with God constantly and instantly thanks to the loving care and presence of the Holy Ghost who can give us spiritual access to God who is a spirit.
Jesus said it was expedient for Him to go and for Him to send the Holy Ghost. Every believer can be with Jesus every moment if they rely on and trust in the Holy Ghost and His power. Wherever the Holy Ghost is received, revered, yielded to, and embraced (not just in word but in all reality), there is liberty. The body can only be one in the Spirit and have fellowship with Jesus and the Father by the Holy Ghost. Jesus has given us over to the Holy Ghost until He calls us to heaven with a shout and the sound of trumpets. Until then, let us throw our lives into the arms of the comforter, teacher, and guide – the gentle Holy Ghost.

Lay Your Burdens down
A Word from the Lord given to T. Myers Smith Feb. 15, 2009
My children, why do you so carefully pack your concerns and your cares every day when you wake up? As if a person going on a camping trip makes sure that they have all of their necessary items. Why do you pack all those things, my dear children, so carefully? Take stock in all of them and count them and itemize them and make sure that you have them. Haven’t I told you even in this very day, the words that came forth? Haven’t I told you many times that I’ll take up your cares and your concerns?
Why must you always be as Martha caring about every detail? And letting slip at any time, that one thing that matters. That Mary, that good thing that I would not take from her. Why must you hold onto these things? I have said that there is a rest. I said that I would take up your burdens and your troubles for I truly care for you and every care that you have. Why don’t you believe? What happened to those who were cast off and fell in the wilderness, but those who did not believe? I will not take that good thing away from them. Why are you so proud of yourself when you pack so tightly so neatly and so carefully all of your burdens. To take off for a nice weekend camping trip, every day. Why are you so proud of that? Should you be proud that you don’t believe me? Should you lay your burdens down? Should you give them to me? I have spoken to you, prophetic words even by a stammering tongue, lay your burdens down. Why do you take such pride in them? I Am. Your, Father.
