Dreams~Part 1

Now, the subject of dreams is one of the most mysterious, least understood and least spoken of subjects in today’s society. But dreams are very powerful and just as important today as they were in times past. Many people ignore their dreams altogether because they are considered to be dark sayings; because they come with a lot of symbolism, many find them either difficult to interpret or to understand.

As a result, they forget them as soon as they have dreamt. But people have dreamt and risen into palaces as rulers while others have also dreamt and gone to the grave, all in fulfilment of what happened in the hour of the night. Dreams tell you what is going on in your spiritual realm. This is because when you are dreaming the actual truths: your spirit man is in action. That is why you cannot afford to ignore your dreams. If you do so, it is to your own peril.

Joseph the earthly father of Jesus dreamt and from what God spoke to him he went ahead and took Mary as his wife. If he had refused to do it, Mary would have been stoned or would have had to run away, Jesus would also be without an earthly dad He listened to God in the dream and of course, the rest is history. If Joseph [son of Jacob] had not had the dream before his trials, he would have given up in the midst of it all. This dream strengthened him to eventually become PM of the most powerful nation of the time, Egypt.

Now, when God gives you a dream, He will most likely use symbols that you have encountered at one point in your life. He will not come through things you have never seen but will use what you can relate to and also understand. As such it is normally within your power to know what was revealed to you. For example, when God revealed the future to Daniel, He did not show Him specifically what it would entail, but the concept of it was clear. We see this in his visions concerning the future kingdoms, going on up until the time Christ would return (Daniel 8, 11).

God used symbols that Daniel could relate to in order that he may understand the message but today we know that He was seeing different things in symbolic language. The same things happened with much of what John the Revelator saw in his visions. Likewise with us, when God speaks to us He will often use symbols from what we can presently understand.

Dreams may either come from you (i.e. your spirit man- see Ps.4:4, 17:3 or, soul man-see Is. 29:8), from the Spirit of God (Job 33:14-17, 29), or from the kingdom of darkness(Deut.13:1-3). First, when the dream comes from your soul, it will entail what is presently going on in your life, or [if you are in touch with them] you may also have dreams that show you what is presently happening to other people.

When the dream comes from your spirit man, it will be more of a judgment-dream. Your spirit man will be showing you current weaknesses that are in your life and need to be adjusted. These are the kind of dreams that reveal to you the real you.You may count yourself very highly in your waking life, but when your spirit man will communicate to you via dreams, then it will depict to you how you really see yourself. These are not direct Holy Spirit dreams, but they can be taken to be indirect dreams from Him since every child of God is connected to the Spirit of God in the spirit realm

Second, dreams which come from the Spirit of God are dreams which bring to you a message from God. They may be direct, or they may be symbolic.Direct as in you do not need to interpret anything, everything is as clear as you can see, and, symbolic as in everything is in symbols which will need to be interpreted before the dream can be properly understood.

To understand symbolic dreams, you will need to either pray for the interpretation or connect to someone (usually prophetic)who has the gift of interpretation of dreams.Both Joseph and Daniel had this gift in their times and helped save many in their generations.
