I am reminded of a dream I had in my old apartment.  We were in a friend's living room, but similar to UFO abduction reports, we were each being tied down by little impish nothings.  My mouth would not speak the name of Jesus, as hard as I tried... So I thought JESUS over and over until my mouth slowly pronounced Jesus.  One of the nothings looked at me and said, "Don't say that name."  I said it again and they were stopped from their whatever they were up to.  I then got bolder and louder speaking, JESUS!  I then was freed in my mouth to COMMAND these things to leave.  They left immediately and the chains they were using to tie us up with were immediately loosed and me and my other two friends were freed to have tea and chat.  It was the best fellowship we shared there.  Both of them were my current friends at that time, smoking buddies, I guess you'd say. 

 

I hope that helps you in some way as you are being perfected and the Lord perfects all that concerns you.  The Lord inhabits the praises of His people.  His mercy does endure forever.  We are all the work of His hands.  What more to say than Thank You, Lord JESUS!
