Bible Study With Jairus

Acts 26 was the most important turning point and transition in Paul's life as he testified about the Lord from Jerusalem to Rome.

I felt the Lord tell me “Do not leave Maryland. There will be a great revival coming from Maryland, and it will spread all over the world.”

We preach the gospel in the material realm, but there are still many activities going on in the spiritual realm. These activities include the work of God, the angels, the saints in glory, and even the evil spirits. If God didn’t open my spiritual eyes, I would be ignorant of these things. But they do exist.

A woman shouted, “You can’t slide at the lobby,” which represents the difficulties and opposition we face in preaching the gospel in Japan. But I walked through a door on stilts with wheels. This is a picture that shows I don’t need to stop. God will open a miraculous door for me to preach the gospel in Japan. If God opens the door for us, no one can stand against us.

The Chinese family I saw later may represent the Chinese that God wants to raise up. The family preached the gospel from village to village. But the roadblocks indicate the hardness in the Japanese people’s hearts.

From this dream, my inspiration is that the future revivals of China and Japan are somewhat related. In other words, the revival may start in Japan and then spread to China; or perhaps after the great revival comes to China, it will lead to Japan’s revival.

The first detail is growing vegetables in shoes. Shoes in prophetic dreams often represent the gospel. As Ephesians 6:15 mentions, “As shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace.” (ESV)  You can’t grow vegetables in shoes, but that is what happened in my dream.

Numbers 8 has two different stories. The first story is about Jehovah instructing Moses and Aaron how to place the lamps in the golden lampstand.  Numbers 8:2 (ESV) records: "Speak to Aaron and say to him, when you set up the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the lampstand." We keyed in on the phrase, "the seven lamps shall give light in front of the lampstand."  The lamps must light in front of the lampstand.  The second story is about Jehovah telling Moses how Aaron should offer the Levites as a wave offering.  The main verse we discussed at this meeting was verse 11 (ESV), "Aaron shall offer the Levites before the Lord as a wave offering from the people of Israel, that they may do the service of the Lord."  The phrase that stood out was Aaron offering the Levites as a wave offering.

After our Bible meeting finished, we were still puzzled over Numbers 7. We didn’t understand some of the questions in this chapter. For example, the twelve tribes of Israel offered the same gifts twelve times. Each time, they were exactly the same. Yet, they are described repeatedly. We know that one written word of the Bible is worth a thousand pieces of gold. The Holy Spirit would surely not record unnecessary words in the Bible. However, from the perspective of efficiency, it seems a bit wasteful to repeat the sacrifices offered by the twelve tribes. This was a question that everyone had during our meeting.

My name is Sean Song. I also have a nickname, Jairus, which comes from the name of my ministry, Jairus Bible World Ministries. There is something in my heart that I want to share with you about a revival that is coming. Before I do that, I want to share a little background about me.
