'The Dancing Groom' and 'The Dead Bride'
In one of the stories of the late Apostle Joseph Ayodele Babalola that I read, it was written that the man of God once had a vision in which a wedding ceremony was being held.
In the revelation, the man of God was said to find himself among some people where a wedding ceremony was being held. The groom was dancing joyfully but the man of God did not see the bride. He looked around for the bride. Then he saw the bride lying dead on the floor.
What shocked the man of God most was that, though, the bride was dead on the floor, yet the groom was still dancing, not knowing that he was getting married to a a dead woman.
It was said that the man of God prayed for the interpretation of the vision and the interpretation the Lord gave him was the following.
It was said that the Lord told him that the dead bride was ‘the world’ and the groom dancing joyfully as he was getting married to the dead woman was any human being that is grossly attached to this dead world and the worldly things.
The interpretation continued that this present world is comatose and dying and yet many people are pursuing the dying world and the things of the world without knowing that the world is dying. This was the same manner that the dancing groom did not know that his bride that lying on the floor, was dead.
15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
The world is passing away. All the evils of the world- lusts, rape, homosexualities, sex dolls, masturbations, cultisms, drunkenness, blasphemies, pleasures, gamblings, and the rest will pass away with it. All those are married to the world will pass away with the world.
Cut off your attachment to the world. What Can a dying world offer you? At best, Money, Fame and Power. Contrarily, none of these things is worth going to hell for, but sadly many have gone to hell for such. Be wise. Seek Jesus. Seek life.
Jesus is coming. Rapture is imminent. Stay ready in absolute repentance, righteousness and holiness.
Shalom.
