ARE YOU WONDERING ABOUT DREAM
EXPERIENCES…?
Job 33:14-18 (MSG)
14 “God always answers, one way or another,
even when people don’t recognize his presence.
even when people don’t recognize his presence.
15-18 “In a dream, for instance, a vision at night,
when men and women are deep in sleep,
fast asleep in their beds—
God opens their ears
and impresses them with warnings
To turn them back from something bad they’re planning,
from some reckless choice,
And keep them from an early grave,
from the river of no return.
when men and women are deep in sleep,

Scriptures:
Genesis 37:1-11, Genesis 40, Judges 7:12-15, Daniel 2, 4
You’ve
probably spent at least some time wondering about your dreams. Do you have vivid
dreams? Maybe you feel like you don’t dream at all or you may not remember
them? You might ask yourself: “What exactly are dreams and do they mean
anything”?
Dreams have
been studied so many times and it’s easy to see why. We spend a huge amount of
our lives sleeping, and the things we dream can be everything from down casting
to heart-warming, and everything in between those. According to some psychologists,
getting a better handle on the nature of dreams can boost self-knowledge and
aid personal growth. However, the experiences we have in our dreams can be
mysterious.
This book
will look at a range of interesting spiritual, scientific and psychological
details about dreams and what they mean, as well as scriptures and prayers to
handle all manner of dreams.
SPIRITUAL DREAM TYPES
God
continues to use dreams as a means of communication in the New Testament age.
But, "Are all dreams from God?" The answer is no. Some of our dreams are just
the result of natural everyday human activity.
Isaiah 29:8-10 (TLB), Says:
8 As a hungry man dreams
of eating but is still hungry, and as a thirsty man dreams of drinking but is
still faint from thirst when he wakes up, so your enemies will dream of
victorious conquest, but all to no avail.
When
to know a dream is from God, i.e. a "spiritual dream," and when it's
just a natural dream can sometimes be hard to discern. No doubt it's a very
subjective experience but most of us have had the feeling that some dreams are
not like the rest. The images linger, the emotions are strongly affected, and
we get this feeling that what we just experienced is a message from above; a
message that needs explanation.
When
we do receive a spiritual dream they are usually one of three types.
1. Warning Dream - This type is meant to
warn us about some future attack from the enemy or some difficult time ahead.
This could be a warning about a friend, spouse, or child. These are given so
that we might pray and intercede for the individual. Often times the calamity
is not decreed from above and through prayer the hardship can be avoided.
Example from Scripture: Abimelech warned
not to sleep with Abraham's wife. (Gen. 20:3-7)
3 But that night God came
to him in a dream and told him, “You are a dead man, for that woman you took is
married.”
4 But Abimelech hadn’t
slept with her yet, so he said, “Lord, will you slay an innocent man? 5 He told
me, ‘She is my sister,’ and she herself said, ‘Yes, he is my brother.’ I hadn’t
the slightest intention of doing anything wrong.”
6 “Yes, I know,” the Lord
replied. “That is why I held you back from sinning against me; that is why I
didn’t let you touch her. 7 Now
restore her to her husband, and he will pray for you (for he is a prophet) and
you shall live. But if you don’t return her to him, you are doomed to death
along with all your household.” –
Gen 20:3-7 (TLB)
2. Confirmation Dream - This dream simply
confirms that what you believe to be true about a person or situation is in
fact true. This type of dream is used to give you the emotional impetus to act
on what you already know to be true but have thus far been unresponsive
towards. Example from Scripture: Pilate's wife's dream confirming that her
husband should release Jesus from custody. (Matt. 27:17-19)
17 and as the crowds
gathered before Pilate’s house that morning he asked them, “Which shall I
release to you—Barabbas, or Jesus your Messiah?”[a] 18 For he
knew very well that the Jewish leaders had arrested Jesus out of envy because
of his popularity with the people.
19 Just then, as he was
presiding over the court, Pilate’s wife sent him this message: “Leave that good
man alone; for I had a terrible nightmare concerning him last night.” – Matt 27:17-19 (TLB)
3. Prophetic Dream - A dream which reveals
the future concerning yourself, another individual, a nation, etc. Example from
Scripture: As a 17-year-old, Joseph dreamt about his future place of honour and
high governmental service. (Gen. 37: 5-8)
5 One night Joseph had a
dream and promptly reported the details to his brothers, causing even deeper hatred.
6 “Listen to this,” he
proudly announced. 7 “We were
out in the field binding sheaves, and my sheaf stood up, and your sheaves all
gathered around it and bowed low before it!”
8 “So you want to be our
king, do you?” his brothers derided. And they hated him both for the dream and
for his cocky attitude.
-
Gen 37:5-8 (TLB)
Spiritual
dreams are God's sole prerogative, so we must always be ready. When they do
come we need to quickly record them and then begin to pray for the
interpretation. Spiritual dreams when heeded keep us in the will of God and
remind us that we do indeed serve a God who knows us intimately and who takes
the time to speak to His children individually for our own safety and care.
