Eric serves as a called and confirmed Chief Apostle in the restored government of God. He is the founder of s8w Ministries, and it is through his stewardship that God ushered in a new season of restoration for all believers who desire to walk in the fulness of Christ.  View my profile.

Have you seen how God is stirring ministers today… sending them dreams to warn them of their spiritual condition?

God has already transitioned the church back to true apostolic stewardship and true regeneration and sending out a second wave of invitations to those who missed it, to join Him in this shift.

God is moving. Many prophetic dreams are being shared by ministers today in answer to their questions:

  • Where is the true apostolic ministry to be found?

  • Why does it seem like my faith is meeting so many roadblocks?

  • True prophecy is not what I thought it to be.

  • How to get out from under the pretense in false prophecy.

Beware, the whole of what has been shared by these ministers as they post their dreams and visions, remains under the shadow of Satan’s influence as he moves deceptively to avoid the New Covenant of Jesus Christ.

As God challenges ministers to come into covenant with Him, they are doing as Laban had done to Jacob. Laban used the dream God gave him as leverage against Jacob. God had appeared to Laban in a dream to warn him against his evil intent saying, “Take heed that thou speak not to Jacob either good or bad.” (Genesis 31:24)

But Laban turned the grace of God to lasciviousness (he took the revelation to himself) saying to Jacob, You see, Jacob, God speaks to me too! What he had intended to do with the revelation was to take back from Jacob all that he thought belonged to him. Laban began searching for his idols in the tents of Jacob, emboldened by his dream to do so.

Yes. That’s true, God DID speak to Laban, but not for his good. God was rebuking Laban and he could not (or did not) want to see it that way. But Jacob saw it and he, as the steward of God’s house, spoke plainly to Laban saying, “God rebuked you yesternight.” (verse 42). And God is again rebuking ministers through dreams and visions today. I want to share one in particular.

A Prophetic Revelation

A“Prophetic Vision of Two Banquets Speaks Volumes” was shared by Helen Madeline Cobanov, May 26, 2016 and posted at Charisma Magazine. In this revelatory vision, the Spirit of God rebukes her. God revealed to her that she was serving at the wrong table and what she was serving was not pleasing to Him.  She confessed saying, “The more food I put out the more they devoured, and the more food I seemed to prepare the more revolting it looked!”

This table at which she served (the false religious system) was contrasted to a secondary table (a second banquet) of which she knew nothing, but knew that her faith and hope would be OK there. In other words, her faith was NOT ok at the table where she was serving (ministering) and those to whom she was ministering were also NOT ok.

Should Cobanov be trusted to lead and teach God’s people just because she came forward with a dream in which God is clearly rebuking her? No. She should not be trusted any more than Jacob trusted Laban.

Jesus equated food to truth and said He is the bread of life and that we should eat of Him. Serving and preparing revolting food means that Cobanov was preparing and feeding corrupt knowledge that does not fill the soul or give divine substance to the soul, and thus misdirecting faith and taking away the hope of those influenced by her teachings.

We can see that in the dream. The more she fed believers at her ministry table, the more they devoured, but their appetite for God was not being filled by the knowledge that did not reflect Jesus Christ.

Always remember: Faith will follow the rhythm of the kingdom it is working with or tethered to. If your faith is challenged by the knowledge of this world to reverse circumstances then your faith is following the rhythm of the flesh and that is harmful to you, dear friend.

Should Cobanov be trusted just because God is telling her that she needs to transition to the table where His steward is serving the true bread of life? Consider that the transition has been taking place publically since 1999. This means that in order to be still teaching, preaching, and believing false knowledge 17 years later… she hadn’t made the transition. At some point in time, she resisted the shift.

Once ministers receive a dream like this and Labanize it, they assume (as Laban did) that they stand in a place of authority to point people towards a transition they are not a part of. That doesn’t make sense, does it?

Back to Cobanov’s dream. After having received an invitation from a waiter to join the others at the other table, she approached with great doubt and misgiving. And according to her testimony,  it was Jesus who sat at the head of this other table, which again points to the re-emergence of apostolic stewardship. Jesus is the head of the Body of Christ when His apostolic stewardship is allowed to function.

God Reintroduces the Apostolic Stewardship & Truth

This amply describes the transition of the church now in this season and God’s generous invitation to come and eat at His table. Ministers who have been serving at their own ministry tables must first humbly accept the Lord’s rebuke that they are not equipped to disciple believers for they do not have the doctrine of Christ to feed them. And those they had been teaching need to be reeducated.

Repentance means to accept and acknowledge that they cannot go on serving the church the food (truth) they had been serving the Body of Christ, for it is garbage—unsuitable for the soul to consume – rotten knowledge, detestable to God.

I had a dream vision back in 1981 that parallels this revelation, so I want to share it with you. In this dream vision the Lord showed me a prison house that represented the state of the church. I was inside Jesus’ body during this dream vision. I saw what He saw and I heard what He heard. As I visited each cell, the Lord said, “The church is in bondage.”

He showed me the place of their feasting. I entered into a banqueting hall and saw long tables. I saw the inmates feasting at this table. Food was being served and was plenteous, but the Lord showed me that at the end of the meal the inmates were still spiritually hungry, empty, confused, and angry. There was much in-house fighting amongst them.

It was at this point that I, still inside Jesus’ body, said to them in the voice of the Lord, “You have desired the true bread of life. Only God can fill the hungry soul.”

I had in my hands the truth God wanted to feed His Church. As I began to distribute the true bread of life to each of them, the heavenly bread was suddenly multiplied to all. There was a great explosion and all the inmates were instantly clothed with garments of white, representing the righteousness of Christ.

We are in this season of multiplication of the blessing of God as His invitation goes forward to all ministers to stop feeding the Church false knowledge and come to the table where His steward is distributing the true bread of heaven. Accept the invitation of the Lord today, for the Lord does indeed ask, “Now, which table would you like to go and sit at?”
