Do You Still Have This Type of Dreams?

Jesus says in Matthew 13:25

"But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went hisway"

The greatest danger that we face in the spiritual world happens when we sleep.

There are 40 kinds of "tares" i.e. problemsthat can be introduced into a person's life while she's asleep.

If you've had any of these dreams, it'stime to take action:

1. do you eat or drink in the dream?

2. do you have sex in the dream?

3. do you swim in the dream?

4. are you being chased or bitten bycats or dogs

5. do you get shot at in the dream?

6. do you have accidents in the dream?

7. has anything been stolen from youin the dream?

"I don't dream, or I don't remember what I dream if I do."

That's a feedback I've been getting from an overwhelming number of people.

But what has God to say?

In Job 33:14-18, we read:

"For God speaks once, yes twice, yet man perceives it not.

In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls upon men, in slumberings upon the bed, then He opens the ears of man, and seals their instructions, that He may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.

He keeps back his soul from the pit, and his life from perishing by the sword."

So everyone dreams. Even scientists agree.

In my new ebook, "40 Common Dreams People Have and 101 Prayers to Deal with Them," (due for release shortly), I tell this true story of a newly-wedded woman in England.

She dreamt that a blonde woman she'd never seen before walked into her Home, made straight for her closet and grabbed her wedding gown. She was gone before you could say, "Jesus is Lord."

At breakfast the following morning, she told her husband about it. He just laughed it off.

Tell you what?

On that exact, same date two months later, the husband filed for divorce. He packed up and moved in with - you guessed it - the blonde woman who first appeared in the dream!

Dreams in the Bible

There are at least 28 accounts of dreams in the Bible. A few of them are:

(i) Joseph had a dream (Gen.20)

(ii) Pharaoh had a dream

(iii) Solomon had a dream

(iv) The wise men had a dream

(v) Joseph was warned in a dream to run away with Baby Jesus

(vi) Pilate's wife had a dream

Sources of dreams

Your dreams can come from 3 sources:

- God
- Satan
- The flesh

When a dream is from God, it

- Encourages
- Assures
- Comforts
- Directs
- Instructs
- Guides
- Corrects
- Reveals

When a dream is from the enemy, satan, it is

- Absurd
- Mysterious
- Unreasonable
- Confusing
- Terrifying

When it comes from your flesh, it generally mirrors what's been occupying your thoughts throughout the day, e.g.

- Negative news from the media
- Idle conversations

Danger of NOT dreaming

If you feel you don't dream at all, the real problem is that of recall. If you cannot recall your dreams when you wake up, you face a double danger:

- If God wants to speak to you, you will not hear.

- The enemy's presence and activities in your life will

remain largely undetected.

The Result?

1. you'll be clueless about the things happening to

you, your finances, health and marriage.

2. you may end up living from crisis to crisis, and

wondering why your prayers are not working.
