Hello, and thank you for joining me today for Give Him 15. The title of today's post is

The New Wine Dream, Part 4. We are continuing to explore a dream given to Dr. Greg Hood. If you've not

been able to see the first three segments, they are available for you here.

And as we have been doing, the portion of the dream I comment on today will be shared at the end of today's post.

And if you're just starting this series, you really should consider reading the first three or listening to them.

It was now time for the second poor.

I called for a black leader, one of my friends and a spiritual son to add this wine.

You have two bottles, I said. What vintages are they?

He replied, I have a full-bodied vintage, a 1741 angry god from the Enfield Winery. And in 1841, angry god from the infield winery, and in 1862 from the Bounds estate.

The first of his two bottles is an obvious reference to the message given by Jonathan Edwards in 1741, sinners in the hands of an angry God.

In Field, Connecticut, the name of the winery in the dream was one of the two places he preached this message,

which has typically been considered the catalyst for the first great awakening.

The emphasis is not on the fact that God was angry, but rather on the great awakening that occurred.

I believe the second bottle refers to the great writer on prayer, E.M. Bounds. The date corresponds

to shortly after he began his ministry. Bounds, books on prayer, have long been considered

classics. The two wines or movements speak of awakening and prayer. One produces the other. We are being told this new wine

Holy Spirit is preparing will be fueled by prayer and will result in another great awakening. The two go hand in hand.

My friend and son also said to me before climbing up the ladder to pour the wines,

may I take a spiritual son up with me to merge the wine?

I don't want to do this without one of my sons.

What a great picture of generational synergy.

I said yes, of course.
