I saw Nigeria as a field of grain and grass and I heard, ‘Reap the grain, leave the grass.’
The harvest was massive, and there were also many harvesters, but they were not enough to work on the entire field. Jesus was standing behind us and when I looked at Him, I had the impression that we were the 11th hour workers. Other workers had labored, and we were entering into their labors.
Jesus knew that some of us were slow and fearful, but the impression I had when I looked at Him was that He would complete the harvest by cutting the work short in righteousness.
The thing I noted was that the Lord didn’t see the work the way we did. There were different fields for different people, and some of these fields extended outside the geographical borders of the country.
Also, He saw the parts of the field that would roll over on each other and reap themselves; all one had to do was kick start an order of events that would lead to a chain reaction. It also seemed like He was a bit peeved that we kept looking at the field from above and tried to harvest like we had always seen others do.
It was then that I saw that some of us had brown wings, others had white wings folded behind us. It was as though we were to fly to the skies and harvest from there with our feet in nets. Some of us tried to fly, and the winds bore us up.
From the sky, I could see that it was not just one field, but different fields with different kinds of plants. There were even grapes and olives at one far corner, surrounded by wooden fences.
I landed on a pawpaw (papaya) field that I actually didn’t choose but was assigned to me. When I landed, the field was all I could see. Most of the fruits looked like bats and birds had eaten from them and in the process, damaged them. There was so much debris on the field. I found a wooden stick, and as I picked it, I saw that a vine plant was growing on it. It felt as though there were other people in the field, but I couldn’t see them yet. I used the stick to push down the bad fruits so they wouldn’t rot and spoil the good ones. There were very few good fruits, and I wondered whether I couldn’t just leave some bad ones that weren’t rotten on the trees.
At this point, I saw Jesus standing behind me. He still didn’t say anything, but it felt like I was supposed to leave some of the good fruit on the trees, and plant the seeds from the bad ones so nothing would waste. I wondered where I was going to plant the new trees since there were so many trees already. That was when lots of great egrets landed on the field and I was worried they would eat the good fruits. However, they ate the bad ones that had fallen, and then, they flew away. That was when I realized that they were the ones to do the work of planting, this meant that the work I thought I couldn’t handle weren’t necessarily going to be done by me.
Then the Lord put His hand on my shoulder, and I saw that all the pawpaw trees were people, and the stick I was holding was a shepherd’s crook. I cried, because I thought the pawpaw trees were maybe truths or church related, and not humans who all seemed to tower over me in height. I also realized that the great egrets were angels and people with them who knew how to discern good from evil, bring out water from a rock and honey from a lion’s carcass.
After that, I saw the angels and people in white moving eastward like the clouds above us were, and I followed them that way through the tall people. Then it looked like the people became shorter, some of them were crying, others were crying tears of blood.
I didn’t understand what was happening to them, and when I tried to touch one of them, I saw bloodguilt everywhere. I had an impression that the man I touched had killed people and felt like dying which connotes that he was supposed to die.
It was scary because I didn’t know what I could do about it. Then I felt Jesus’ hand on my shoulder, and it was like He had power even over death, so it wasn’t about the how, it was about the when.
