THE OLDER WORK HORSE: LABOR OR RETIRE?
12/19/25 THE OLDER WORK HORSE: LABOR OR RETIRE?
I saw an older work horse and he was pulling a large flatbed type wagon. The focus was on the horse and I only saw the front of the wagon, enough to see how wide it was and that it was large. My sense was that he was pulling a load. The focus was on the one horse, but there was another work horse yoked to the first connected to the same wagon. The horses were the same type of horse in the above photo.
Then I heard the Lord speak this scripture: Proverbs 10:22 The blessing of the LORD, it makes rich, and he adds no sorrow with it.
PROGRESSIVE STAGES
Later as I pondered seeing this work horse, I heard Allowed. I wondered why He would say this and felt it connected with this scripture, that there are 3 levels of the will of God. (Good, acceptable and perfect. They are each in progressive stages of growth until completion.)
Romans 12:1-2 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
GREEK:
Good: Beneficial
Acceptable: Well pleasing, fully agreeable.
Perfect: Complete and fully grown
UPDATE 12/22/25: I have had 5 confirmations about this vision in 5 people’s private lives. Perhaps this vision is about the timing of those who are preparing/ praying over retiring but still with the need to work.
About the 3 stages of God’s will: It reminds me of completing 30/ 60 or 100 fold fruit. If we want to totally complete God’s will and produce 100 fold fruit, we need to run the full course.
PRAYER: Lord for those who are at a crossroads, praying and or preparing towards retirement years, I ask that You would set the final provisions they need into place. Let the timing of this be done in the perfect time where they are able to complete what You have asked them to complete. I know many are tired and need a change and they are pulling heavy loads. I ask that You will make a way where there is no way. That You will bring the passion, energy and desire to complete the work You have called them to do. And that You will prepare a new road for them in retirement years that will bring glory to You as they partner with You in Your kingdom business. In Jesus Name.
