In last night’s dream I was given a badge. That was it. No gun.  

We know that the badge is a metaphor but what does it mean? In the context of the dream, I understand it to be a “grant of authority”. Further, in the context of what you are most likely to hear me speak about, this Authority is that which is delegated by Him Who sits on His Throne beyond the firmament. His instructions to one group:  

Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.  

And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick. (Luke 9:1-2)  

Those guys must have had badges. Not necessarily the ones that you pin onto your shirt pocket but the kind that shines forth as a Bright Light or comes forth as Fire for certainly the diseases and devils referenced in the following passage were arrested.  

And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name. (Luke 10:17)  

Please expect to see a follow-up to the interpretation of this dream.  

Jesus Christ is Lord!

Tonight we will have a visiting minister at our Church. Last night (early this morning) I dreamt about the service.

I dreamed that from the very moment the minister (let’s call her Joan) entered the sanctuary the Holy Spirit fell — means was manifest. The nature of It was like only what I have heard of in the past. It was as a heavy cloud.

The folks (Saints mostly) were behaving as if they were under the influence. They behaved in an unorderly fashion (lovingly unorderly). The whole room was affected.

As I am an usher, my job is to minister comfort and order and to remain on the administrative side of the service and so that is what I did to the best of my ability.

Whole families were ministered to by the administration of the Holy Spirit. It was a wonderful thing.

I am headed there now!

And it came to pass, when the Lord would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind, that Elijah went with Elisha from Gilgal.
And Elijah said unto Elisha, Tarry here, I pray thee; for the Lord hath sent me to Bethel. And Elisha said unto him, As the Lord liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. So they went down to Bethel.
And the sons of the prophets that were at Bethel came forth to Elisha, and said unto him, Knowest thou that the Lord will take away thy master from thy head to day? And he said, Yea, I know it; hold ye your peace.                                                                  And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.
He took up also the mantle of Elijah that fell from him, and went back, and stood by the bank of Jordan;
( 2 Kings 2:1-3, 11-13)

In February 0f 2007 the Lord spoke 2 Kings chapter 2 to me. Upon refreshing my memory regarding this scriptural passage, I understood that it is important to have a mentor (spiritual father or mother) and that it is important to stay near them, lest they be taken up in your absence.

Additionally, that night I dreamed that I was taking a karate class and that the instructor had to leave and instructed me that I was to take over the class. I told him that I was not experience enough to take over the class. He instructed me that he would help me and that I would be well able to take over.

Now, here it is 12 years later and I believe that the Lord is about to launch me into a level of ministry that I can in no wise handle on my own. I am now reminded of this scripture:

And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

This particular dream has some very detail symbols for an interpretation that I can not divulge now but am prayerful that I may revisit it and open it up soon.

 

 

SNAKES (serpents)

Views: 204

The snake (serpent) or reptiles in general is probably the most prominent symbol representing the devil, Satan the adversary. The devil hates God and he hates us. In his mind there is no atrocity too harsh to be inflicted upon mankind. It has been this way since the fall of man in the Garden of Eden.

My guess is that when the Satan heard the Father give dominion over the earth and everything herein to mankind he flew off into a rage from which he has not, nor shall recover.

It is not nearly as widely known as it aught to be that the devil was crippled by the events of Calvary and that the victory that we (believers and those destined to salvation) have because of the same, renders his works destroyed by the invoking of the name and authority of Jesus Christ.

Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. (Luke 10:19)

The problem is that the situation  is akin to one having a bank account that is chalked full  of money but not knowing that the funds are there and ready for use. So too is our situation in the world today not knowing that sickness, premature death, poverty, oppression, depression or any thing that diminishes or cause the quality of our lives to be anything other than perfect are illegal conditions (works of the devil) that need only to be rebuked and caste out in the name of and by the authority of Jesus Christ.

Speaking of serpents or “that old serpent“, I’m going to tell you a story about an encounter in my life a few years ago that is yes, inclusive of a dream. You will love this story.

Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? (Genesis 3:1)

I wrote this down in February of 2004. “For a few weeks now I have had some discomfort in my right shoulder. Initially I thought it was due to some lifting while moving furniture. After having the discomfort for some time I had a dream in which it was revealed to me that there was a serpent attached to my shoulder and it was revealed also that the serpent would have to release the hold.”

Well about ten days subsequent to having had the dream I heard the Lord say in a dream “loose him.” The discomfort didn’t immediately subside but I knew that it would because I had heard the Lord command that it be so.

Do know that I had my shoulder looked in the meantime by an orthopedic doctor. I thought that there was a chance of perhaps a rotator cuff  tear — but wasn’t the case. Seeing a doctor while waiting to be healed is probably an excellent idea as sometimes that where the Lord has arranged for the healing to be.

About eight years later, one day on the way to church, I asked the Lord to move on the Pastor to pray for the sick as part of the service. The Pastor did in fact pray for the sick that day. He asked that everyone that had sickness or discomfort in their body stand and that all of the people positioned near them to lay hands on them while he prayed. I, of course, was one of those receiving prayer. I had no more discomfort in my shoulder after perhaps three or four days. Nor since.

 

 

The Five Most Important Dreams, Ever!

Views: 294

The earth has likely been around for eons. The earth in her current state is about six thousand years old. Chapter one of the book of Genesis  in the Bible tells of what is commonly referred to as The Creation. A better way to describe what occurred is a restoration as a careful study shows that what is conveyed is that the earth became “void and without form”.

The Bible tells us that at the time of the most recent restoration of the earth that God found it to be a ball of water existing in complete darkness somewhere out in the universe. We know that the devil was already in the earth as he showed up shortly after the creation of Adam and Eve to beguile them. In little or no time, he had had become the ruler of the earth.

Adam and Eve had handed over to the devil that which belonged to the Lord. This had to be undone. What to do? Man was found to be unreliable so God started the process of doing it Himself.

Even so, God had to work through man because of the way He set the world up – giving man dominion and all. So, just as He had restored the earth by voice command (Utterance) he set about regaining control by speaking. He spoke through man. But, more was needed.

Using mortal man was helpful to God in in moving closer to coming back into ownership and management of His property the earth. Noah, Abraham, Joseph, Moses and the prophets are examples.

Operating in the earth in a legal fashion, as a man, required a more robust strategy. He had to become a man. These five all important dreams laid the groundwork:

But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. (Matthew 1:20).

And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way. And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him. (Matthew 2:12-13).

But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, Saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are dead which sought the young child’s life. (Matthew 2:19-20).

But when he heard that Archelaus did reign in Judaea in the room of his father Herod, he was afraid to go thither: notwithstanding, being warned of God in a dream, he turned aside into the parts of Galilee: And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene. (Matthew 2:22-23).

Why all the drama? Well, God knew that He couldn’t just send the Saviour into the world without getting some pushback from the devil. Because … from the beginning, it was known that the intent of the devil was to devour the Seed of the woman Who was to bruise his head.

Every precaution was necessary to protect the coming of He Who was to become the Anointed Saviour of the world. We see from the above scriptural passages how God through dreams advised Joseph that he should not concern himself with fidelity matters as they pertain to Mary and advised the wise men not to kowtow to Herod. He further advised Joseph to relocate to Egypt and await instructions the murderous intent of Herod.

God later directed Joseph to Israel and Galilee (Nazareth).

In theory without the referenced dreams salvation of all mankind would not be a thing.

 

 

 

 

The Wind and the Sun

Views: 388

Last night when the Father gave me this dream, I thought huh? what? 

Here it is. What I initially saw was a vessel (vehicle of sorts) that looked like the Wright brother’s airplane. The creator (entrepreneur) of the craft was doing some initial testing of the design by harnessing available wind at the ground level. 

As the wind blew the craft began to move. Because the initial experiment was in an urban area there were starts and stops to avoid buildings to change direction for farther forward movement. 

It is at this time that I came upon the scene and encountered the gentleman that was working on this project. As we discussed his endeavor, he began to show me what looked like solar panels and he explained to me that he expected to harness energy from the sun that would cause his contraption to soar. The dream was over! 

Yep, like I said, huh? what? 

Did not seem so simple initially but the interpretation of the dream is quite simple; the Father was talking about Himself in the Form of His Spirit and His Sonthe wind and the sun. 

I originally posted this on Oct 27, 2018, and now here it is a year and a half later (4/13/2020) and the Lord is giving me Light that the Solar Panels are my inner man having been built up in my most Holy Faith by praying in the Spirit (Praying in Tongues). 

The Father wishes us (the Ecclesia) to consider and put into perspective all His Attributes for a more complete walk and relationship with him so that we may soar Spiritually. 

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen. (2 Corinthians 13:14) 

  

 

 

Sheep and Lambs

Views: 246

This dream starts with me being in a city’s downtown area. It was raining and there were portable shelters available. They were like umbrellas. I was able to move one to an area that I chose to stand. I was waiting for public transportation.

While I waited, I noticed that there were Christmas decorations present there in the city, so I took some pictures of them with my mobile phone to send to a friend who lives in California. It was then that I noticed that my phone was broken. Half of it was missing and the face of it was gone exposing the inner workings.

Fast forward. I am now in a country setting. Feels like Colorado. I approached this farm/ranch house to see if I could use the phone.

As I approached the house and was walking up the long walkway the sons of the owner came up behind me and one of them picked pocked, my wallet. He was not a particularly good pick-pocketer though because I realized right away what had happened and was able to wrestle my wallet away from him.

I continued and entered the home where I met the owner/father and after telling him that one of his sons had just lifted my wallet. His reprimand to his son was quite mild. I explained to him that I needed to use his phone.

Now I am again at the front of the property where there are two groups of sheep. They were in two distinct stages of development. One group was to be delivered inside of (onto) the property and the other was to be taken away by me.

There appeared now a third party who was to take the in-going sheep into the premises. The outgoing sheep were to be transferred to the vessel in which the in-going sheep were once they were taken out. I asked the Third-Party Person to be sure that the vessel had plenty of water when He brought it back to be provided to the sheep that would be taken away.

Interpretation (partial):

The Rain is the presence of the Holy Spirit. The shelters/umbrellas are spiritual covering. I am transitioning from one Spiritual covering to another. The mention of public transportation speaks to the sometimes fluidity of life in the Spirit.

The lambs and sheep are the people all saved but at various levels of spiritual development.

I expect more revelation relating to this dream and will bring it to you when it is received. It might do some of you a world of good to know why the Lord started this dialogue with me in the first place. I may be shedding some light on that as well.

To God be the Glory!

 

That’s Not Enough Money!

Views: 186

Last night I dreamt that I was approached by a gentleman who wanted to rent a truck. I used to work in the rental car/truck industry many years ago. As we discussed the matter, I could see that all the money that the man had was a fist full of coins. 

I suggested to him that he would need more money than that and enquired as to where his other money was. It was clear that he had no other money. 

I asked him where he was going with the truck, and he said New Jersey. New Jersey! New Jersey is several hundred miles from where we were. This person was confident that the rental would take place. There was just no doubt in his mind. The dream was over. 

Earlier in the day yesterday, I made a note to myself due to some light or revelation that I received during my early morning study time/meditation. I wrote this down: “Speak to the Mountain.” I knew that it was inspiration from God so I carefully took the note and secured that it would make its way to my desk for safe cataloging. 

Mark 11: 22-23 reads as thus: And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God. 

For verily I say unto you, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart but shall believe that those things which he saith shall happen; he shall have whatsoever he saith. 

Also consider Matthew 6:25-34. 

Interpreting the dream, for me, is simple. It is a very gentle and sweet admonition to me from the Holy Spirit to move forward, nothing wavering, toward that which He has called me. 

The nice man requesting the truck was operating in faith. 

 

 

I Can Do That With My Eyes Closed

Views: 218

Last Friday the nice gentleman who cuts my hair told me about a dream that he had. We talk a lot about the things of the Bible when I visit with him. He is not yet Filled with the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in Tongues.

He said that he dreamt that he was in circus-like setting (atmosphere) and that Tongues came pouring out of him. He said that he recalls laying hands on a woman, a magician of some sort. The Tongues came pouring out and he felt as if he were not in control of his body.

Additionally, he said that the ringmaster was nearby.

He said that he also remembers speaking to the lady in a very stern way and admonishing her that the Lord is saying that His people need deliverance, and they are not living the way in which He intended.  These words were, too, pouring out of him.

I believe that this for my friend is the genesis of his Spiritual Development to a higher level of Baptism with the Holy Spirit, Speaking in Tongues, Spiritual Gifts and Ministry of The Great Commission work.

His actions in the dream were Speaking in Tongues, and Interpretation of Tongues which, as you know, equals Prophecy.

Symbolically, the circus is the world, the woman is the church, and the ringmaster is the Satan.

The prophetic utterance is a reminder to the Church of Her charge to conduct The Great Commission (Mark 16: 17-18).

STRINGS ATTACHED

Views: 235

Yesterday at Church the Pastor talked about a dream that he had relating to his wife. He dreamed that he was having spiritual warfare with two invisible entities. These spirits were waging an attack on his wife, and he was doing his best to fend them off.  

One of the foes was more aggressive than the other and Pastor fought furiously with it, even to the point of biting it. While the battle went on the second demon maintained a more restrained position (for some reason).  

Later in the discussion we surmised that the dream had something to do with Pastor having encouraged his wife to move forward with some ministry endeavors that she desired. Ministry that the enemy preferred that she did not do. Pastor was desirous that the congregation would pray regarding the matter. 

Upon hearing the dream, I suggested that we should pray without delay. So, we prayed, rebuking the devil, and proclaiming victory in Jesus Christ over such devices or harm intended by their spiritual wickedness. 

Immediately after having prayed, one of members present announced that he had a vision during the prayer and would tell of it. He said that he saw in the vision that Pastor’s wife had had many strings attached to her like those of a puppet. He said that he then saw a Hand from Heaven begin to cut the strings, freeing her and releasing the burden of the strings. We rejoiced in our hearing. 

But there was more to come. Immediately thereafter another person from the Church came forward with a prophetic word addressing the matter.  

She said that she had had an impression of having seen a large spaceship. It was modular. It was burdened. She related it to some contemporary cartoon or similar media. Point being, Pastors wife was able to begin to “push buttons” jettisoning some of the modules eliminating the burden to fly freely. 

This is a clear example of God allowing danger to be revealed in a dream so that prayer could be offered to bring about safety. He did also graciously show that the prayer had been answered. 

 

BREAK EVERY CHAIN

Views: 269

Yesterday I popped into the Publix Market to pick up a couple of sandwiches that I ordered online. At the check-out counter there was a person in front of me. He was an elderly gentleman. He was bowed over and moved slowly – very much so. I had compassion in my heart for him. Once he was checked out, I was led to share a thought with the check-out lady. I had to ask her to move her ear in closer to me as the gentleman was still close by and, also there was a nice lady in the line behind me.

So, I whispered to her that the day when those of us in the church will lay hands on the sick (such as this man was) and see them recover (Mark 16:18) is near at hand. I can most often discern the flavor of those with whom I am interacting – as to whether they are Christians. But we must have been thinking the same thing as she displayed the most genuine smile and gave a gracious “thank you” comment. All the while she was working  on getting someone to help the man out to his car.

Where is the dream? you ask. Here we go. Last night I dreamt that a person who was once a client  of ours stopped in to complain about something that he felt did not work out as he expected in the work that we had done for him. I started to do research to see what the matter was by contacting those who were staff at the time. As I worked at trying to get the situation resolved, I noticed that the man was in stocks, both hands and legs. By now, he was starting to break down and I was able to see that his concern had nothing to do with a previous business transaction but rather with great current distress.

My initial thought was to try to find out where this person had escaped from and to get them on the phone so that they could come and pick him up. That thought was short lived. By now, he had started to weep uncontrollably. Feeling compassion, I embraced him from behind and he went down onto his knees. Shortly thereafter I really feeling concern for him, suggested that he put his legs out in front of him to be more comfortable. My concern was not to get him back into a lockup but to get him free.

This scripture was immediately brought to my attention. “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised To preach the acceptable year of the Lord” (Luke 4:18-19).

What does it all mean? It means that the Church will now recognize and receive the Outpouring of the Holy Spirit and will operate within His Power.

Break Every Chain. Shackles.

 

Barley Bread

“And when Gideon was come, behold, there was a man that told a dream unto his fellow, and said, Behold, I dreamed a dream, and, lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the host of Midian, and came unto a tent, and smote it that it fell, and overturned it, that the tent lay along. 

 And his fellow answered and said, this is nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel: for into his hand hath God delivered Midian, and all the host. And it was so, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream, and the interpretation thereof, that he worshipped, and returned into the host of Israel, and said, arise; for the Lord hath delivered into your hand the host of Midian.” (Judges 7:13-14) 

The above scripture is just one of many instances in the Bible where God used symbols to communicate with His people. In this case, Gideon, a “show me” kind of fellow was given added assurance that he would succeed in his assignment against the Midianites. 

Somehow this is my favorite dream story from the Bible – there are many to choose from. 

Tumbling barley bread – Nice! 

BLUE HANDS

Views: 588

I had this dream on the morning of 12/01/2017. I dreamt that I was driving to Church on a Sunday morning. I believe the setting to be Atlanta, Georgia. 

This was a church that I had previously visited but there was a tricky turn, and I ended up on the wrong road. As you know, we sometimes do irrational stuff in dreams as did I when I parked the car and started to walk; walking up to a Church that was not the planned one. 

 I entered the Church foyer and requested information. I sat down in the foyer next to a man and shared hellos. As I looked over the material that I had received, I noticed that the palms of my hands had turned blue. There was a texture to the blue. It was like a thin hairy or firry covering. 

To be sure I was not seeing things I asked the gentleman sitting next to me if he saw it and he said yes. At a second glance my hands had turned yellow (or amber, the color of fire), which we both saw. Then the color of my hands turned white and then back to their normal color. 

Next in the dream I was walking down the sidewalk back to my car. The nice man from the church was walking with me. As we passed two people walking in the opposite direction, I was led to touch one of them and found that there was power in my hands, which was evident by the physical reaction of both as I touched just one of them. 

 The dream was over, and I was awake. The time is about 6 AM. In a “first ever” I endeavored to go back to sleep to know more about these “Healing Hands.” 

 

Swirl Painting

So, Swirl Painting! 

I do not recall ever hearing the term before but, last night there it was in a dream and vividly; you know, in color. This dream must be for someone. I have not adapted it for myself yet, though I may as I gain more revelation as to what it symbolizes. 

Here is how it went. Picture a map of North Carolina fixed in a wide flat pan. In it are several paint colors. The person doing the painting is holding either side of the pan out in front of them and gently moving the pan up and down and from side to side to move the paint in a color specific manner to for example, put green where they want it and yellow or brown or black in just the right place. The painting was complete. Fascinating, huh? Remember now this is a dream. 

There! Obviously by now you have some question as to my state of mind but, do not shoot the messenger. There is a profound revelation here and it will hit us soon just like the proverbial “ton of bricks”. Fairly sure. 

Oh! I forgot to ask the Lord what it means. 

I will do that right now. 

Swirl Painting. Techniques are all over the place but we only want to know what is being symbolized; right? 

 

Who Told Me That!

Views: 254

The Reverend Leroy Jenkins is/was a television minister who is well known to minister miracles and healings. Some thought/thinks that he is a fraud. I am not dealing with that one way or the other here. He never did anything to me. 

Reverend Jenkins use to somehow know what was ailing the people who came to him for a miracle or a healing. He would ask the folks saying, “who told me that?” The folks use to always reply, God (or Jesus). 

What I would like to bring to light here that there are ways to have firsthand information regarding people, things, or events. This information is usually brought to us by invisible persons who place such in our minds or in our hearts (spirits). 

Familiar spirits are persons (invisible evil spirits) from antiquity up until now which go about broadcasting unfruitful words that cause confusion, chaos, division and yes even death. True historical stories are these as they were witnessed firsthand by the teller of them. Make no mistake this is evil work. 

The Word of Wisdom and The Word of Knowledge are entirely different resources, however. The Word of Wisdom is the prophetic divulgence by the Holy Spirit (God Himself) of an act or process that is related to a Kingdom action that is to take place. A good example of this (there are many) is the Hope of the coming Rapture of the Church. The Word of Knowledge relates to divulgence by God to a person (or persons) of information that could only be known through this Supernatural source and is given for the exhortation, edification and/or comfort of the believer. 

Sometimes when we dream, God gives us information that can be used for Kingdom Business. Remember, we are always to pray when we have a dream because it is likely that God needs our approval (authorization) to move forward with His desired action regarding Earthly things. Do not forget, He gave us Dominion and The Keys to The Kingdom of Heaven. 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Save The Baby

Views: 291

Last night I had two dreams (that I remember). I was disturbed by the first dream and woke up and prayed to The Most High regarding it. I rejected and renounced the dream. I did, however, leave the door open for The Most High to give illumination and or revelation as to whether or not it was a message from Him. It is probably best if I don’t give details of the dream.

“So anyways” (as BJNT use to say), down to business. I dreamt that there were two very small children playing in a puddle (not pool) near by where I was sitting in some place. Then, there was just one and I noticed him playing okay for a while but when I looked away (remember now I wasn’t necessarily charged with looking after these babies but was just there  present) and looked back on him I saw him face down in the water and pretty much drowned as he was not moving.

I immediately removed him from the water and applied a lifesaving technique that I was taught “back in the day” in which a drowning victim was placed on his stomach and the water is forced from his lounges by placing pressure on his back (please refer to current techniques).

Because in the dream I was aware that I had applied an outdated process and the fact that the baby hadn’t responded I called my nearby sister who is a nurse and asked for help. She looked at me dumbfounded as the only child she saw was going about its’ business as normal.

The baby had revived!

Wow! it is amazing how working on these dreams and writing them down actually brings Revelation and Illumination as I go. A key word here is revive as the verb and baby as the noun.

I digress, though, as I remind you that a baby in a dream usually means “a baby’ or something else that is in its’ infancy like a new job or business for example.

So, what is the takeaway? A good result (report) for the baby likely means something positive has happened regarding one of my endeavors. I say “has” to allow for the time-lag between the Spiritual event and its’ natural (corporal) manifestation.

 

“Kill and Eat”- Visions & Dreams & Trances & Angels & Voices, Oh My!

Views: 447

Not to mention the dream symbols found in this story. Long story short, Cornelius a righteous and giving Italian Centurion had a vision in which he saw that an Angel (which frightened him) had come to bring him a message from God that his giving and prayers had not gone unnoticed but had come up as a memorial before God. He was instructed to send for Peter (and told exactly where he would be) for further instructions. 

 As his men drew near to where Peter was residing, Peter fell into a trance in which he saw, as it were, a sheet lowered down from heaven that had all matter of unclean animals (Peter was Kosher you know) on it. God instructed Peter to “kill and eat”. 

Peter reminded God that he has never eaten an unclean thing. God admonished Peter not to call that which He has cleaned, unclean. He said this to Peter three times. Peter contemplated the vison as the vessel (sheet) was taken back into Heaven. 

So now, the Spirit advised Peter that there were folks at his door and that he should go with them “doubting nothing” as they were sent by Him. The men identified themselves as having been sent by Cornelius and were provided lodging for the night. 

The following day Peter and “certain brethren” of his went with Cornelius’s party back to Cornelius’s home (Caesarea) where Cornelius had invited a welcoming party that included his friends and relatives. 

Peter arrives and after some conversation with Cornelius he preaches the Gospel to these gentiles (the first gentiles to receive the Gospel) who are all saved and baptized in the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in Tongues. 

This story demonstrates the vast richness of “dreams and visions” and all the associated intricacies including the trance, direct communication from God (via the Holy Spirit and Angels), dream symbols (the unclean animals representing the gentiles) and certainly several others. 

 

Help when you need it

Views: 460

I had this dream on November 6, 2016.

The setting was in an office building. We were near the elevator. A Third Person and a very good friend of mine were present.

I was quizzing my Friend about the job that he was apparently there to see about.

Skip ahead to my observing my friend on the other side of the building. He was in great distress and gasping desperately for breath. I motioned for him to come where we were, but he couldn’t.

He was now more desperately gasping for breath and all seemed lost. I asked the Third Person to call for help. I flew (yes flew) over to where he was and began to assist him.

The dream was over and I knew that essentially the dream meant that I was to immediately pray for my friend. And so I did.

I called my friend and left him a message that the Lord had shown me in a dream that there was some stuff going on in his life and that I had prayed for him. We played phone tag a couple of times but I got to speak with him yesterday. It appears that the problem was actually a marital matter that had caused great dissention in the marriage and for several months. I believe that the third person was the Holy Spirit. I believe that the prayer offered was successful in helping to bring about healing (and there was healing) in their marriage.

I always say that the first thing that we should do when we have a dream is to pray.

 

MOST SWIMMINGLY

This morning I dreamt a dream that was a split screen dream. In one screen (stage left) I was in a coffee shop like setting with several other men and we were discussing how the recent river change was affecting their current living quarters. They all lived in a multi-level apartment building that stands by the river. The river had risen and some of them needed units that were on higher floors. My home was not in the building and so my concern was nil. 

The discussion then moved on to putting in our orders for something to eat later. One of the fellows was going for the takeout order. The day-of-the-week setting must have been Friday because I ordered fish and chips. 

In the “stage-right” scene, I found myself walking in a dry riverbed in the direction from which the water would normally flow. To my surprise water started coming down the river. Initially, I was able to sidestep the water and stay out of its way. Increasingly, though, the flow of the water became greater and greater. It was like the dam broke or a great rain had taken place up stream. 

Meanwhile (stage left) I was having a change of mind about the fish and chips. I had remembered that I already had fish at home. I was trying to get my order cancelled. 

I woke up and knew immediately what the dream meant; mostly, I think. 

Now folks, many of you know how that the Lord says that in the last days He would pour out His Spirit on all flesh and you know about how he says that rivers of living waters shall flow from them that believe on him. I propose to you today that the increased flow of the waters in the river in this dream represents a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit of God. 

Just as a note, the river is another way of saying the Holy Spirit, fish could be representative of in this case unsaved folks. I am sure that some other symbols are included here. 

The advent is at hand. We are walking on the dry riverbed, but the water is coming. 

 

 

 

THE SAILBOAT DREAM

Views: 508

On September 22, 2016, I dreamt that I was out in a sailboat sailing on a river. 

There was a great stone (big rock) adjacent to the river and in the mist of some trees. 

We had word that the stone was about to explode. 

We were currently not moving as we had encountered an obstruction. The waters of the river were flowing nicely. 

I recall adjusting the kick-up rudder to clear the obstruction to be able to sail on. 

The Stone did explode as we began to sail and flow freely. 

As I have said before in this work, the interaction with God in the process is regular. This dream is a good example. 

The message (interpretation) to me is clear; the Stone is the Lord Himself. The river is that which flows from Him eternally (Utterance), the trees are the people (the Saints). The explosion is symbolic of the Spirit of the Lord being poured out on all flesh in this end time. 

The obstruction that was overcome by the navigation adjustment is symbolic of the Enemy. The navigation adjustment represents the Church (Ecclesia) adopting proper protocol where walking in (and by) the Spirit (of the living God) is concerned. 

Utterance is spoken forth through the Saints throughout all the World. 

 

 

Robin, Robin, Robin

I Dreamt that I was walking along the base of a coastal mountain along with Pastor Preacher. There was another person or two with us. As we neared the water, Pastor’s little dog, Robin, took off running and ran down to the water and jumped in. As the waves washed her out to sea, Pastor began to call for the dog. He called out, Robin, Robin, Robin. His little dog was lost. 

The next morning, I told my wife that I thought she should call and check on Robin, a lady from our church. The Lord was directing us to do so. My wife was a little reluctant to do so initially. 

Later, that day, though, she called me to say that she had contacted Robin and was able to determine that Robin and her two young daughters were really in desperate need of some assistance as their power was about to be turned off and they needed to go grocery shopping.  

We were able to provide money and take her shopping. 

Since having this dream, I have had many others in which the Lord has given me the names of specific folks or dreams about them. Circumstances pertaining to these people are usually vague. One certainty is that I am to pray for them. And I always do. 

 

So, we were able to assist the Lord in answering the prayer of one of His own by carefully sorting out some aspects of the dream. Any time there is a series of 3’s in a dream one should take notice as this is one of the more prominent symbols in dreams. Other details of this dream such as the location, characters and any actions taken may have meaning that is yet to be revealed.

I WILL PERFORM IT!

FOR MANY YEARS YOU HAVE BEEN DECEIVED BY YOU BROTHER (probably not literal). HE HAS MISLEAD YOU, TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF YOUR CHILDREN AND SPOUSES. HE HAS SAID I AM YOUR FRIEND AND I HAVE YOUR BEST INTEREST AT HEART. BUT, HE IS A LIAR.

 WHEN YOU FOUND HIM OUT AS TO HIS DICEITFUL WAYS, YOU TRIED TO OVERCOME HIM ON YOUR OWN, YOU HAVE GONE TO FRIENDS, NEIGHBORS AND TO THE GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITIES, BUT NONE WERE ABLE TO ASSIST YOU AS HE WAS ALWAYS ONE STEP AHEAD OF YOU.

 NOW THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD SAYS TO CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LIVING GOD AND I WILL DELIVER YOU FROM THE EVIL THAT BESETS YOU. I WILL GIVE YOU FAVOR AMONG MEN. I WILL GIVE LIFE TO YOUR DREAMS IN MY PURPOSE AND YOUR BLUEPRINTS AND PROTOTYPES WILL BE PRODUCED AND THE MANISFESTATION OF YOUR VISIONS WILL APPEAR.

THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD SAYS CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LIVING GOD. CRY OUT TO GOD FOR DELIVERANCE AND I WILL CAUSE THESE THINGS TO HAPPEN.

 THUS SAITH THE LORD “FOR I HAVE SPOKEN IT AND I WILL PERFORM IT”.
