What Your Dream Might Mean

Dear Believer


 
Keys to  Unlocking Revelation
 
God is a talking God!  He is never not pursuing you, did you know that?  Yes, that's right- God is always pursuing us.  One of the ways He speaks to us is at night, when we are asleep.  I like to tell people that God has to speak to me during dreams so that I won't talk back!  You see, during the day my mind is busy and I might not  fully receive from Him.  I have experienced times that I almost argued with God.  I'm referring to times that He leads me to do something and I might not believe I'm qualified. My response was similar to Jeremiah or Gideon..... Who me?  Surely not me! Yes, that is a perfect example of talking back to God,  right?  However, at night He bypasses my mind and speaks directly to my spirit. I can't talk back to Him during a dream.  My spirit receives fully when He speaks during the night season.   He does the same with you also.
 
In my previous posts (and you will want to read the last three as they will help you more in understanding dreams) I wrote about this being a season where heaven's revelation is being released.  Revelation means  to lift a veil  and to expose whatever has been hidden.  In my personal journey with God I have realized that different strongholds (demonic opposition that have gained a strong-hold) were revealed during dreams. I had gone through very difficult seasons and I did not understand that there was demonic opposition that held back my breakthroughs. When God spoke during the dreams I knew where the opposition originated and also how to pray against the barriers;  And, as a result I experienced much personal deliverance.
 
Strongholds Revealed in Dreams
 
In my book  Dream On:  Unlocking Dreams and Visions  (you may order by clicking on www.lifegatechurch.org) I wrote an entire chapter on deliverance through dreams.  I went to great lengths to explain how to document dreams for interpretation and then how to seek revelation concerning different symbolism within each dream.
 
One common stronghold in dreams is a Jezebel spirit.  Those of you who understand the functions of this evil spirit know that it operates in several different ways.  For now, I want to focus on a few manifestations of Jezebel that might be revealed in your dreams.  I desire to help you understand this spirit because it will be one of the main spirits that will attempt to block your breakthroughs in 2014.

Going through Gates of Revelation




  • Going through Gates of Revelation
  • through Dreams and Visions
The Bible says that in the last days that God will visit us through dreams and visions.  When He  is speaking, it's important for us to listen-wouldn't you agree?  And, since we are in what is referred to biblically as  the last days we can be certain that dreams and visions will increase. God has always been a protector of our destiny, and, He will use dreams and visions to continue to speak to us concerning our future. I believe that 2014 will be a year that we go through gates of revelation.  One of the areas God will release revelation will be through dreams and visions.

 
Nothing is Always

It will be very important that we learn how to interpret dreams  and visions as revelation is being released in this season.  (I have several previous posts that will help you with interpreting- to a degree).  With dreams and visions I tell people that  nothing is always  when interpreting dreams.   By that I mean that no particular symbol always means the same thing.  I can dream about a horse and to me it usually represents fear. This is because a horse fell on me one time and since then I have had to continually overcome my fear of them.   But, at times, the horse (and it's a more biblical understanding also) represents strength.  So, with the  nothing is always   in mind when it comes to dreams and visions, you might not always be awake when you get caught up in a vision.  I have had times that I was asleep and then upon awakening to a degree I  then found myself completely caught up in an open vision!  It was difficult to tell the difference-but it really doesn't matter if we do or not.  Why? Well,   it's important to  keep the main thing the main thing!  Just realize that God wants to speak to you in your dreams and visions.

My Oh My! God is Getting Our Attention!



Unlocking Revelation in Dreams


God is attempting to get our attention- through unlocking revelation contained in your dreams!
I have always believed that God is never NOT pursuing us! One of the most prominent ways He pursues us is through our dreams.  And, dear believer,  He sees you and I completed- not defeated! I want to encourage you today and say to you that God desires to reveal avenues for transformation through dreams.

 God watches over us and His promises concerning us.  (an encouraging study as to how God "watches" is for you to read Jeremiah 1:1-12)  Just as He promised Jeremiah that He would watch over His Words, He is giving us the same promise today!  And, dear one, he is attempting to get our attention during this season so that we remain focused and determined to shift and fulfill divine destiny.  One of the ways He does this is through dreams.   He is a loving God and that alone reminds me of His faithfulness.  What I mean is this; because He loves us He attempts to get our attention-He will speak to us-even at night-through our dreams.

Interpreting Your Dreams Is Not That Hard





I have often stated in my Dreams and Visions Seminars and have even written about this in my book  Dream On; Keys to Interpreting Dreams and Visions,  I wish I had known much earlier how to document my dreams.  In fact, it wasn't until I understood that God desired to talk to me through dreams and visions that I even believed they were important!  For years, I treated dreams like junk mail!  Maybe you have also.  However, dreams are one of the most common ways that the Spirit of God speaks to us.

We are entering into the celebrations surrounding Christmas.  As believers, we celebrate this time because we are celebrating the birth of our Savior.  Yet, if you recall, it was through a series of dreams that Jesus' life was spared.  Actually, God sent Gabriel to tell Mary that she would be the mother of Jesus.  But it was dreams that God used to speak to Jesus earthly father, Joseph.  In fact, Matthew Chapter One documents several times that an angel appeared to Joseph concerning the safety of Jesus. Joseph's obedience to adhere to the dreams saved Jesus' life.  Precious believer, dreams are important.  And yes, they can even save our lives today.

Dreams Reveal What is Hidden

I recall a time about eight years ago when my husband, Mickey, became very ill.  The doctors could find nothing wrong with him.  While in prayer one night for him I became sleepy and fell asleep.  I had a dream in which the Lord instructed me to tell Mickey to go back to his cardiologist and ask for a different type of heart test.  Within a week, a different test was done.  He had four major heart blockages and was immediately scheduled for open heart surgery!  I am so thankful for that dream. The dreamed saved his life! This is an example of how even mysteries are being revealed through dreams.
