ALL NIGHT LONG DREAM

[Believer1997]

I think that maybe you are disturbed about things you are experiencing or seeing in life each day - that could affect your dreams and your perceptions. Pray and submit all your concerns to God.

I disagree.

God spoke through dreams and visions before. Why would He cease now?

Or do you not believe that God still punishes sin?

Why would you even ask another Believer if they do not believe that God still punishes sin? Not that I feel I must explain to you what I believe - Of course He Does. Does God continually give people dreams that seem to be rather obvious in their interpretation?? I'm not sure.

While i agree the insinuation from Nebula was probably unwarranted, i think it mightve been unintentional?, but i would also ask why do you lean towards these dreams being from something Chiquta ate or other disturbance?.

IMO vivid dreams involving God are usually just that, and these were not fleeting or completley vague as in the workings of our sub conscious.

I dont think warning dreams from God are fatalistic, and are sent so we can avert the danger or warn others to change. They are different from Satanic dreams which are disturbing on a different level, or false dreams of granduer. IMO God does use symbolism and this could be to get us to seek Him more.

Peace to you.

The person posting this has indicated in a subsequent post that she did not feel the dream was of God. Fear is not of God. Things we ingest prior to sleep can affect our subconscious thoughts and dreams.

There is another possibility here, and that is perhaps God is warning her to be careful, because things may happen that will temp her to go in this direction. Make sure you keep prayed up, and in the word.

I said I didn't think the last dream was of God because the content was so disturbing. I said in my first dream I felt fear for God's wrath, like we should not fear of evil.

As far as eating anything... Let's just lay this to rest already, I hadn't eaten anything in HOURS before I went to bed as I didn't go to sleep until 11:30ish. Would you like to know what I did all day and examine that???

It was an all night dream because it went from one to the other to the other - the dreams obviously were not three hours long each - I didn't realize I had to explain that either because I though when I posted this, I would get constructive advice, thoughts, scriptures, experiences - not nonsense like questioning that I might have eaten a bad piece of pizza before bed time.

I think this might be all it is - Although the last dream was ugly - it might have been God allowing the enemy to influence me in my dream to show me what abomination I could possibly commit if I don't get to praying - I might have already opened the door in error. I am only human - a sinner. I am still in prayer for this and will not simply dismiss this dream ESPECIALLY since that is EXACTLY what He was warning about in the dream - that we ignore HIM!!!! Only HE can judge me.

Thank you all for the constructive thoughts -

No one is perfect, we all stumble at times. we just have to ask forgiveness. and move on .

Why would you even ask another Believer if they do not believe that God still punishes sin?

Because I'm puzzled by the high negative attitudes about this dream everyone keeps responding with. I'm trying to understand by throwing out suggestions.

Why not?

Thanks! That's what I was thinking/feeling, but not able to express.

Well, just remember that the lord commanded Isaiah to walk around naked for 2 years.

seems to be intresting in that point, if ppl who are confessed their sin to the church, walking a way naked cuz they will be observed and get an attantion putted on if their way really get changed from the wicked.. and yes it can be taken about yrs if they totaly be changed...sometimes shorter...

but also think about this:

Rom.14:13

Therfor let us stop passing judgement on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumble block or obstacle in your brothers' way.

Ohhh - well if that's what you were trying to do - now I fully understand. I never responded with anything I would have determined negative. The poster, herself, was concerned with this being of God and seemed to have fear and concern. My response was to her regarding her fear and concerns.

Perhaps writing the dream down as you did here and speaking with your pastor? One of your posts indicated to me that you were afraid and worried that it was not of God. That is why I attempted to offer suggestions on what dreams are sometimes affected by and the pathology of dreams in that they usually don't last during every sleeping moment of the night. You are obviously concerned about the dream - talk it over with your pastor. Pray and stay in the Word. Those are the most constructive thoughts I can offer anyone who has concerns. Blessings.
