“And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it.”
Genesis 28:12 KJV
Jacob when fleeing from his brother Esau, had this dream where he saw angels ascending and descending on a ladder and God Almighty told Jacob that He would bless him and his descendants and the whole world through him. God speaks to mankind in dreams. The ladder up the heavenly realm is where our true riches are. Our true riches is Christ Himself. Ascending the ladder progressively reveals God’s purpose for our lives in Christ. Jesus is the only One to connect us from earth through His human nature, to heaven, His heavenly nature. This Jesus ladder is what Jesus spoke to Nathaniel about when Nathaniel first met Him and acknowledged Jesus as the Messiah God. We must be born of the Spirit, that is, born again, to be able to ascend the Jesus ladder. Jesus is the only Way to ascend. Let’s acknowledge that through faith in Jesus’s death, burial and resurrection opens us to the newness of life where we can ascend to the spiritual realms, not only in the hereafter but right here and now. Let’s abide in Christ and dream dreams where He speaks to us to reveal the purpose He has created us for and accomplish His will on earth as it is in heaven. Amen!
