When the Department of Government Efficiency started laying off workers, I was concerned. However, for those of us who have worked in the private sector, this is nothing new. In fact, I have been fired once and also taken a parachute package, a buyout. For us who work in corporate America, this is normal.
Nonetheless those that chose the government sector as an employer, do so for a very basic reason, I believe. Security. Think about it. Very rarely one gets fired from a government job; you get a pension for being a good worker bee if you’re fulfill your time.
Imagine what it would feel like if it was taken from you, which is what is going on currently in the mass firings and layoffs of our federal government. It is unbelievably scary for people that don’t know the Lord or follow Him closely.
The Lord recently gave me a dream to explain what He is doing with these firings. To some, government has become their God. Here we go…
I am with my Daddy outside of a large government building. The parking lot, walkways and the front foundation had been turned up, excavated. The front entry area waiting for a new update and paving.
The government building, now more of a museum where we were to take a tour. Daddy used to work in this building, but not anymore. As we entered, no one recognized Him.
We went from room to room, and as we did, He held His arm out for me to interlock my arm in His. This happened every time we walked to a new room. He was showing me each room, arm in arm and each had a bathroom in it. I commented on the bathrooms, “You like to keep a bathroom nearby!” I awoke to scripture.
I form the light and create darkness, I make peace and create calamity; I, the Lord, do all these things. Isaiah 45:7.
And they shall rebuild the old ruins, They shall raise up the former desolations, And they shall repair the ruined cities, the desolations of many generations. Isaiah 61:4.
Those from among you shall build the old waste places; You shall raise up the foundations of many generations; and you shall be called the Repairer of the Breach, the Restorer of Streets to Dwell In. Isaiah 58:12.
As for the meaning of the dream, it is evident the building as a museum, is a place of historical importance. Our government. Daddy is the Lord. He used to ‘work’ there yet is still around after they retired Him!
Jesus is our security and the one that holds us up if we follow Him as illustrated by Him walking me through each room arm in arm. The restroom is a place to ‘rest’, regroup and cleanse.
The excavated front entrance signifies a rebuilding for future use. I believe each room represented each department that is being overhauled. And the restrooms indicate the need for those employees to come clean with the Lord for their futures. Quote from Trump; "We are building a foundation for the future", on Maria Bartiromo show.
With my own personal experience of being fired and downsizing of a large corporation, it brought a time of seeking my Creator. It was a time of fire. It readjusted my life to His will; a time of repentance, prayer and submitting all to God.
He can bring no revival in people souls if there is no fire in their lives… Firings. I was fired and it brought me back to Jesus. The fire of a firing is purging, burning out the old to make room for the new. It is a time of readapting and inventorying of one’s gifts. God given gifts to work for His glory; to exalt the living God. And if we let the Lord do the work, He will guide, protect and show us His best will for our lives.
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11.
Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me. Psalm 50:15.
As I look back, I can see the hand of God that guided me through the process, but also initiated it and brought me into His perfect will for my life. But while in it, I certainly couldn’t see it. Let’s pray for those going through this fire.
There is hope in your future, says the Lord… Jeremiah 31:17a.
