The Dreams Thread...

[Edward]

In another thread dreams came up but wasnt the topic of the thread. But it got me thinking and I'm not sure that we'vr ever had a dreams thread so I made one. I don't want to take the other thread off topic.

Let's start with the scripture Job 33:14-18
14 For God speaketh once, yea twice, yet man perceiveth it not.

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.../

So God brings us dreams and teaches us through them or gives us warnings or wot not and so it is always nice to have these dreams. Of course they are full of symbolism and need interpreted and some interpretations are better than others. I doubt that all dreams are from God, some may or may not be pizza dreams. The Lord has given me quite a few dreams in the past which I had interpreted and most were very cool and encouraging to me. Some I thought were bad dreams but when interpreted they were actually good dreams.

They say that we dream 5 to 7 times per night every night. But I hardly ever remember them. Since I've moved to Ohio I am not having as many dreams as I used to. So last night before going to sleep, I prayed and asked for the Lord to speak to me in my sleep and give me a dream of whatever He would like me to know. And please Lord, a lucid dream that I can remember. And He did. (PTL). I'm not ready to recount this dream yet because I need to get it interpreted and confirmed first. But! Do you dream? Do you think the dreams are from God? Can anyone here interpret dreams or know of a good source to have one interpreted?

I used to have a good interpretation source, but I had an incident awhile back with my kids and was talking to her for advice and she advised me to prosecute my kids. I didn't take her advice and decided the high road instead...so she got mad at me and banned me. Oh well...

But anyway, I'll recount a different dream I had before.

I was in a mountainous park with quite a few other people who I don't know but I did know that they were Brothers and Sisters in Christ. Quickly a storm rolled in a we all could see a tornado coming our way. So everyone was trying to get to higher ground (I know!) to reach safety from the tornado. It felt like the thing to do in the dream. So we did and the others split off from me and I was alone and still climbing up...and then I was sucked up inside the tornado and was spinning around with it and I just knew inside myself that, I have to get to the top of this tornado somehow. So I began sort of swimming the tornado and did eventually get to the very top of the tornado. And found myself above the storm in blue sky and sunlight. I knew if I could keep my head above the top that I would be ok. I looked down at the storm below and felt concerned about my Brothers & Sisters and hoped they were all ok...and then I woke up.

I never did get that interpreted. But I have a good idea what it means. Not 100% sure so I wont speak of that. What do you think?

If you've had dreams, post them. This is the dream thread. Anything goes about dreams!

I have had many flying dreams before. I had a couple where Jesus was teaching me how to fly and He would hold me by my ankles and talk as we flew. Sometimes we would land on someones roof and take a break and talk. He taught me how to land on someones roof without disturbing the occupants!

Flying dreams were weird for me. The first ones I would have to run and jump into the wind and sort of ride the wind and it wasn't so easy all the time. But later on I started being able to just run and jump regardless of the wind and fly like that superman style. Then in later dreams I was able to take off flying Neo style (Matrix) straight up.

I remember I had a couple dreams that I was a flight instructor teaching others how to fly and land and so forth And I would teach them by telling them to keep up and I would try to lose them by zig zagging and going fast and real high, all the way up to the edge of space. Those were all very cool dreams.

No takers? Let's hear about your dreams. Everyone dreams. Come on.

The first half of this one is saying similar to the other dream. Love that Jesus is showing you the way and you are finding it hard to get it right at first.
Second half you have got it so well you are showing others the way.

I'm really tired so I will post a dream tomorrow.

My dreams are mostly struggling type dreams where I want to be heard as I have important things to say, but no one gives me a chance to speak as they ignore me.

I remember one time I was sleeping on the couch and when I woke up my husband said I was speaking in tongues while I was asleep. Have no idea what that was all about. I do remember one dream that when I saw the abomination of desolation Daniel spoke of I was running away from it so not to be taken captive and was trying to preach the Gospel to all I passed as they were running to the beast and tying to tell them to turn away and run to God. It's been a long time since I have had any prophetic dreams.

BTW Edward, when you need interpretations for certain dreams just ask the Holy Spirit who will interpret them for you. The Holy Spirit has used me a few times to interpret others dreams

No takers? Let's hear about your dreams. Everyone dreams. Come on.

Jesus teaching you how to fly while holding your ankles might mean that He was preparing you to go out into the world to teach the Gospel to others. It's like learning to walk on your own as you first hold on to someones hand until it's time to let go and walk on your own. Combining that with your flight instructor dream of flying and landing this may have something to do with your own Spiritual growth as I have seen where you have begun in the word to where you are now teaching others over the years.

Just my thoughts.

Hi Edward. Good topic. I went to bed last night and did what you did. I asked God to give me a dream to remember. So, here is what he gave me.

Backstory to why I think I had this dream. I have been estranged from my sister for 4 years now. And, this past weekend I had a conversation with my dad about what he is doing about his Will/Estate when he dies.

The dream started off with my sister, dad and me riding this tandem bike thing to a family gathering. My dad was steering it and we were coming from my house and going to my aunt's house. Lots of family but I only talked to my stepbrother. (In real life my stepmom died 2 1/2 years ago) After I talked to Ryan, we left. My sister was kind of rubbing it in that she talked to everyone and I'm not popular.

We got back on the bike and I was in the front, but turned around backwards to face my dad (who was steering) and my sister was on her high horse....sitting up high gloating. We get going on a highway at night and I'm the one who knows where we're supposed to go because it's my house and they live outta state. I'm trusting my dad but he gets off an exit and then my part of the bike breaks off. I start flying down the road and pass a bunch of construction men waving at me.

My part of the bike finally stops and they catch up. We have to find "water" to fix the bike. They have an elephant lift my part of the bike (with me in it) up with is trunk and dunk me in water. Well, that didn't work. I realize that we can just turn my bike around and I can pedal and then they can pedal their part.

Before we left that area, we had to eat stuff. The people around there told us to gather mice to eat. We had to get a certain amount. It was taking too long and I realized we could just go through a drive-thru and get fast food, but first we wanted to release the mice and there were some other animals we released at the same time. At the end of my dream cute purple chicken was released and then I woke up.

I used to have a good interpretation source, but I had an incident awhile back with my kids and was talking to her for advice and she advised me to prosecute my kids. I didn't take her advice and decided the high road instead...so she got mad at me and banned me. Oh well...

I don't know anyone who can interpret dreams, but this is kind of sad she suggested this to you.

The earliest dream I can remember was a frequently reoccurring nightmare that I had as a youngster. This dream continued, but less frequently, into adulthood.
I would dream that I was in a tremendously large room. The room was all white, even the floor, and void of anything except a large pile of logs in the middle. The logs were as big as redwoods. I was somewhat near the logs when a giant lumberjack or hunter walked into the room. He was cursing and yelling. I always ran for the logs to hide. I would be so tiny. I remember feeling more and more tiny as the giant continued cursing and yelling. He saw me run for the logs and wanted to kill me. As I became tinier, he would become more angry and searched for me among the giant logs. I would be so afraid and kept becoming even tinier. I would wake up at that point each time. I had that dream maybe 3 dozen times. One day I had an epiphany about my life and the dreams stopped. It was when I realized I wasn't my "Dad's" kid.
