Before Sunrise Saturday morning, I had a dream, and although
was not too unusual, the implications were.
In the dream, someone’s future spouse was upset that
he would not become the husband of this person. He was what seemed to be the
prophetic destiny of someone I knew, and yet I had to tell him he needed to let
go.
When I woke up, I went to my Saturday morning prayer, and
during prayer, God directed me to look into Daniel about the Stone being CUT
OUT without hands.
Dan 2:34 Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet [that were] of iron and
clay, and brake them to pieces.
Dan 2:35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the
silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of
the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was
found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and
filled the whole earth.
Dan 2:44 And in the days of these kings shall the God of
heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall
not be left to other people, [but] it shall break in pieces and consume all
these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.
Dan 2:45 Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut
out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron,
the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to
the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream [is] certain, and the
interpretation thereof sure.
The word CUT OUT (Aramaic) comes from the Hebrew Strong’s
number 1505. It is also translated “soothsayers”,
but is would better be rendered “determiners”.

It is the same word in Hebrew is 1504.
1504h = divide,
decree, cut in two, cut off

1Ki 3:25 And the king said, Divide the living child
in two, and give half to the one, and half to the other.
Est 2:1 ¶ After these things, when the wrath of king
Ahasuerus was appeased, he remembered Vashti, and what she had done, and what
was decreed [01504] against her.
If you remember, because of Vashti’s dishonor, a royal
decree went forth:
Est 1:19 If it please the king, let there go a royal
commandment from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and
the Medes, that it be not altered, That Vashti come no more before king
Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal estate
unto another that is better than she.
Est 1:20 And when the king's decree which he shall make shall
be published throughout all his empire, (for it is great,) all the wives shall give to their husbands honour, both to
great and small.
Est 1:21 And the saying pleased the king and the princes;
and the king did according to the word of Memucan:
Est 1:22 For he sent letters into all the king's provinces,
into every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people after
their language, that every man should bear rule in
his own house, and that [it] should be published according to the
language of every people.
After the prayer Saturday morning, I and another guy are
about to leave, and in walks someone who got there late, and she brought her son
and daughter-in-law. We decided to stay and pray with them. Afterwards as we
are sharing, the lady kept saying “cut out”, but speaking of other
things. Hmmm….
After prayer, I think I realized (perhaps by revelation or
assumption), that in order for God’s plan and purpose to be fulfilled,
that time has to be cut short. There are things that would happen, but at the
moment the rock is cut out without hands, it is as if time makes a sharp turn,
and all the scriptures have appeared distant, are here and rapidly being
fulfilled.
Very strange…. It is like in the spirit, you can see
the things that should be coming, but in order to break away, you have to close
your spiritual eyes and let God navigate by placing complete trust that He is
able to lead you around a blind corner.
It is almost like God was showing me that there are
destinies that will not take place when the stone is cut out and the Kingdom of
God is set up.
