Vision: Coffin Analogy

This happened when we had a corporate prayer with other churches in Bay Area. So after all the prayer was done, I got a vision of a coffin. It was kinda scary and weird. Why would God give me a vision through something so frightening? Plus I even saw the corpse inside and it came to life... But, this is not a horror story.. Don't worry..

So after asking God about it, it turns out it had quite a good meaning.

Vision: The lid of the coffin slid open all by itself.
Meaning: Imagine when you were trapped inside the coffin, and the lid suddenly opened. Wouldn't you feel like you finally can move out? You can gain freedom! You can escape death! And it used to be so dark inside, but now you see light again.
Message: We may feel trapped in this world. Everything is so messed up - so many murder, rape, cheating & etc.Or maybe you feel like you sinned and did some bad things yourself. But don't worry, the door is now open! You can move out from all those negative feelings and bondages. There is a way out once we move into the light. And the light, is no other than Jesus Christ.
"When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." - John 8:12

Vision: The eyes of the corpse that was closed, is now open.
Meaning: The blind will be able to see. If previously they can't see because something was blocking their eyes, it is now free to see.
Message: People who don't believe in Jesus will be able to see that He is real. The Bible isn't a fairytale. They can't see Jesus physically, but they start to believe in Him by FAITH!
"Then the eyes of those who see will no longer be closed, and the ears of those who hear will listen." - Isaiah 32:3

Vision: The corpse slowly began to move and came out of the coffin.
Meaning: The dead will be reborn. There is new life.
Message: So after believing in Jesus, the next step is to embrace the new life. To symbolize this, there is the water baptism or Holy Spirit baptism. It is a sign that the old you is dead, and you are now reborn as a new person who walks together with Jesus.
"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!" - 2 Corinthians 5:17
