Encouragement

---

A time came in our lives when we (me & my wife) decided to leave the house where we lived with my parents and move to a rented house closer to my clinic. There was opposition regarding this from several relatives and we were in a quandry whether to shift or not to shift. We knew that it was God's will that we should move out for a while, but the opposition was real too.

One night as I slept the Lord showed me a dream in which I am in a precarious situation. I see myself standing in my parent's house wearing a shirt which is covered on the front and back with live scorpions. The scorpions are not stinging me but just clinging onto my shirt and body. I fear they'll sting me and try frantically to remove them but to no avail. Suddenly my father comes in to the room and takes his bath towel and strike at the scorpions. they fall to the ground and I heave a sigh of relief.
The dream ended there.

What the Lord showed was that, though my relatives were clinging onto me with arguments of their own for us not leaving the house, my father would help me in this. And that was what happened exactly. When the time came, my father gave us the "go ahead to move out" quieting all the people who had their opinions against us moving out.

This dream also could mean "the Heavenly Father" helping us in the process of moving out (my father being shown in place of the Heavenly Father)

The Psalmist says,
"Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings." (Psalm 63:7)
And so will I, because He is my help too.
