Prophetic Dream About 2 Timothy 2:2

I had a prophetic dream the other night. It is a message for some—not all.
In my dream I had a child of someone who I had invested in spiritually for years staying with me. After a couple days the child (probably somewhere between 6-9 years old) came up to me tugging on his diaper asking me if I was ever going to change it. I was filled with all kinds of questions and felt as though I had let my friend and her son down by not noticing he would need his diaper changed. At the same time I kept thinking that I hadn’t even considered that this child would still be in diapers. At his age he shouldn’t need someone to help him in the very basics of growing up—to be potty-trained. He should have even been able to help a younger brother or sister by now, but he couldn’t because he wasn’t trained himself. Sounds like Hebrews 5.
When I awoke I felt bad like I hadn’t done enough for my friend. Then, knowing it was prophetic, I began to pray asking the Lord what He meant by the dream. The Lord answered and gave me 2 Timothy 2:2, “And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.” His message was not about my friend and me, it was about passing down the value of discipleship to the next generation.
Have we done a good job discipling others, if we have not instilled in them the same value of making disciples who would in turn make disciples, who would in turn make disciples…? Some have, I am sure, while others have not. This is a call from the Holy Spirit to focus on making disciples who will reproduce disciples. It is a call to focus on the generations to come by highlighting the necessity of 2 Timothy 2:2.
