Dream Of The Father!!

[Edward]

I had a very cool dream last night, out of the blue, I haven't been praying about anything special or anything like that and I had this dream.

I was someplace else, I don't know where. I can't even say that I was in heaven for a visit but I also can't rule that out because I don't know and nothing stood out enough to make me think either way. It was someplace reminiscent of a big house, I know that because many people besides me were there. Father God was there also and He was dressed in White and I could clearly see His face and while He had no bright glow of light like many others describe, it was obviously Him and His presence of Love could not be mistaken.

I remember that in the dream, I was feeling just a wee bit awkward and slightly anxious being in His presence. Kind of scared in a way but I couldn't take my eyes off of Him. I think He sensed this and looked my way and gave me a very nice loving smile. That made me feel somewhat better but...did not completely take away my anxiousness, lol.

He was interacting with many of His children there and it was...a little loud because it was like other people were vying for His attention and trying to talk to Him and so forth. (Think news conference where one reporter asks a question and all are silent, then the question is answered, then bedlam breaks out with the other reporters shouting to be next...like that)

Sometimes He would walk out of the room I was in, presumably to see His other children. I was feeling a little shy about screaming for His attention so I sat down and leaned back in the room I was in to wait for a better chance to speak with Him. IIRC, He came to the doorway once and gave me another loving smile and then others in the hallway got His attention and He was gone again. While I was waiting and thinking it occurred to me to ask Him to heal me when I got the chance.

Then He was there again and said something to me and I answered Him but forgot to ask for healing, and then He was gone again. I knew He was in no way ignoring me, just trying to fairly spread His attenion among all the children.

So I'm sitting there waiting and being patient and suddenly He walk in, over to where I am sitting and sits beside me...but of course everyone is shouting and wanting to talk with Him them self. He leaned over me sort've to speak with someone, and laid a hand upon my chest. So I took this opportunity to give Him a hug and then He stood up and looked down at me sitting and so I said, Lord, will you please heal me?

And He said to me, Do not call me Lord...and I realized that I was to call Jesus Lord, and He wanted to be called Father or Abba...

(Now I have no clue if that is scriptural or not, but it was what happened in my dream)

...and then I woke up. Feeling peaceful and also sorry for the dream to end and for not having called Him Abba or Father...

I didn't have pizza last night, lol! I dunno if this dream means anything or what, I just thought it was cool and wanted to share.

Wow, how interesting that we both had inspirational/spiritual dreams last night.

 

[Edward]

Yeah, this dream took me by surprise. And Jesus was not in the dream either. I went wow a little on that, lol. I kind of figured a spiritual dream would have Jesus in it somewhere.

Aren't the Father and Son one in the same?

Aren't the Father and Son one in the same?

Well uh, now that you mention it, yes. That is correct and realistically, Jesus had to be there. In the same perspective, we think,,,Jesus in us and us in Jesus, so the Father is always here also. I think most think of the Father being in Heaven on His throne and we focus on Jesus.

Jesus said He only does what He sees the Father do, or say. That He is in the Father and the Father, in Him. That's scripture. And the Holy Spirit also.

So I think I'm right in saying, The Father speaks to Jesus...Jesus speaks to the Holy Spirit? and the Holy Spirit bears witness to us and teaches us..., right?

but we know that Jesus does visit people and/or allow people to visit Him. So...the Father could too! That never really occurred to me before, lol. So when I was awake and thinking about the dream and the Father, I sort of thought it odd, thinking why the Father in this dream and not Jesus? I pray to Jesus to manifest Himself to me and teach me, whatever, His will.

It's a little vague and confusing sometimes trying to get this all straight. In how we are to look to the unseen, and have never seen it before and try to understand how it is...like spirits can be in more places than one at the same time, or join with one or more other spirits also...It sounds like some good science fiction actually, lol. But is not. Lord help our unbelief.

Scripture says that, jesus said He will manifest to us, not sure that it is said of the Father. It does say I and the Father will make our abode with him..too, ...?? but I never expected even a dream out of my own imagination of talking with the Father. So it probably is a real spiritual contact dream I think?

And I would think that using "Lord" would be acceptable for any of the trinity, so it blows my mind that He said don't call me Lord, and I know how it was meant in the dream. He wanted to hear Abba Father! Have you ever heard anything like that before?! I haven't. Is it right though?

I mean, at this time, the dream is unconfirmed to me, so I dunno. It was very cool though!

Job 33 talks a lot about how God speaks to man in dreams and why.

15 In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;

16 Then he openeth the ears of men, and sealeth their instruction,

17 That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.

18 He keepeth back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword.

19 He is chastened also with pain upon his bed, and the multitude of his bones with strong pain:

20 So that his life abhorreth bread, and his soul dainty meat.

21 His flesh is consumed away, that it cannot be seen; and his bones that were not seen stick out.

22 Yea, his soul draweth near unto the grave, and his life to the destroyers.

23 If there be a messenger with him, an interpreter, one among a thousand, to shew unto man his uprightness:

24 Then he is gracious unto him, and saith, Deliver him from going down to the pit: I have found a ransom.

25 His flesh shall be fresher than a child's: he shall return to the days of his youth:

26 He shall pray unto God, and he will be favourable unto him: and he shall see his face with joy: for he will render unto man his righteousness.

27 He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;

28 He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.

29 Lo, all these things worketh God oftentimes with man,

30 To bring back his soul from the pit, to be enlightened with the light of the living.../

That kind of hit close to home for me and I found myself on my face. Our Christian duty is the relationship where we take on the Character of Christ and His mind and become literally one in Christ and Christ in us, and the Hebrew culture sees this as not just a spoken thing but to live it, for living it speaks louder of the name and character of God than mere speech. Unto the world, on earth as in Heaven...

So any sin done by us actually would profane the name and character of the Lord God and who He is, that we are called to represent and introduce Him to others...and I'd have to admit...I am no where near being even close to perfect at this task, I fail daily. My sin is ever before me. No wonder He says to pray without ceasing. So it was a warning dream to me, but done in a very sublime and encouraging way to me which just screams of His love. He did not bring condemnation to me in the dream (Romans 8:1). And that, my Brothers and Sisters, is about as cool as it gets! What a wonderful God that we have!

Tonight I prayed for the Lord to reveal to me what this dream meant, if anything...and He poured this into me so fast that it blows my mind. A small explosion, lol. But I am filled with much joy now as I go to sleep again.

Once again very cute emoji, but just so you know I didn't understand ninety-nine percent of that.

your posts are very inspiring - thanks for sharing

Thanks Brother, but He caught me off guard with that dream, lol. And I have been trying to pay attention. I think that if God initiates contact with us in any way, we have to figure it's important.

I meditated on it for a bit and had little clue. Then I did pray about it...and He gave those Job scriptures.

I gave thanks for that and then He gave me this one yesterday as a followup, lol!

Every bit of it is scripture and I looked them all up, except some that were already well known to me.
