Psalm 126 "Daydream Believer"
John Stewart wrote a song entitled Daydream Believer, recorded by the Monkees.
"I remember going to bed thinking, 'What a wasted day, all I’ve done is daydream.'
And from there he wrote the whole song.
1. The Revelation Of The Dream -
His Person - 1 When the Lord
His Purpose - turned again -
AMP - When the Lord brought back the captives to Zion (Jerusalem),
His Power - the captivity of Zion,
His Perfection - we were like them that dream.
2. The Restoration Of The Dream -
It's Timing - 2 Then
It's Treasure - was our mouth filled with laughter,
It's Triumph - and our tongue with singing:
It's Testimony - then said they among the heathen,
It's Truth - The Lord hath done great things for them.
3. The Reflection Of The Dream -
The Source of Salvation - 3 The Lord
The Scope of Salvation - hath done great things
The Sense of Salvation - for us;
The Satisfaction of Salvation - whereof we are glad.
4. The Resolution Of The Dream -
The Prayer - 4 Turn again our captivity, (the remaining exiles) AMP
The Premise - O Lord, (The Same God can save others also)
The Promise - as the streams in the south.
5. The Recognition Of The Dream -
The People - 5 They
The Price - that sow in tears
The Prize - shall reap in joy.
6. The Remuneration Of The Dream -
The Restrictions - 6 He that goeth forth and weepeth,
AMP - He who goes back and forth weeping,
The Rigours
i. The Sower's Task - He that goeth forth
ii. The Sower's Tears - and weepeth
iii. The Sower's Trust - bearing precious seed,
iv. The Sower's Triumph -
6 shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
The Resources - bearing precious seed,
The Reassurances - shall doubtless come again with rejoicing,
His Return - shall doubtless come again
His Rejoicing - with rejoicing,
His Riches - bringing his sheaves with him.
The Rewards - bringing his sheaves with him.
Those who go out carrying seed, will return carrying sheaves.
Matthew 25:20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.
21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
YLT `And his lord said to him, Well done, servant, good and faithful, over a few things thou wast faithful, over many things I will set thee; enter into the joy of thy lord.
The Comfort - And his lord said to him,
The Comment - Well done, servant,
The Commendation - good (In Character) and faithful (In Conduct)
The Comprehension - over a few things thou wast faithful,
The Commission - over many things I will set thee;
The Completion - enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
