A series of dreams in the last week or two have been very compelling. These dreams stir me to seek the Lord. I ask what are you saying to me through these dreams? What are you saying in a wider context – to the church? The prophetic is for the purpose of building up the church to make us mature. When I say the church, I mean not a building but the family of God. Those who have put their trust in Jesus and are following him and no other, become the family of God.
The kingdom of God is at work and like yeast in a batch of dough it will rise and like the tiny mustard seed that grows and flourishes. It will fill the whole earth. And the glory of the Lord shall fill the earth as the waters cover the sea.
- Dream 1: The persecuted
- Dream 2: Being transformed by the word of God.
- Dream 3: Do not love the world system
- Dream 4: Waiting on the Lord and The Eternal purpose of Christ
- Dream 5: Rescuing the lost
- Dream 6: The kingdom of God and the earth.
Through reading and praying about these dreams may you be touched by the Spirit of God and experience more of Him.
For me, I began to realise that they are like a letter. They contain a message and in order to understand the message you have to understand the world of metaphor and symbols. There are some simple questions that you can ask: who is the dream about? You can tell if the dream is about your life because you are the star of the show. You can tell if it’s about something you’re involved in because you’re a small part of the story. Or you can tell if you’re having a dream about somebody or something else because you would be observing it like a DVD; you’re not actually in it, you’re looking at it. So, immediately you begin to ask who this is about and then you would ask where is this from? Is this my own soul talking, or is there another perspective that actually doesn’t reflect my feelings, it brings an answer to my feelings. That is when you begin to look at what is the source of the dream and that’s where your own personal worldview will come in with interpretation. If you do believe in a ‘higher power’ then it’s very easy to look at that as a higher power is speaking to help me. If you didn’t believe in a higher power you would probably think your subconscious was providing an answer. From our perspective we sometimes see each of those happening.
