God Talked

[Kansasdad]

On August 3, 2005 between 4:00am and 4:30am I awoke from a dream that pierced me. not as in a nightmare but as in this is vitally important, pay attention. In the dream I was with a friend. This friend had no form, or face, I never saw him but I was not alone. Also in the dream were two buildings, we had to walk by one building on the way to the other building. As we walked by the first building protruding from the corner was a snake. It wasn

Hi Kansas, do you feel this dream was God talking to you?

What do you feel He was saying to you?

Isn't it funny how we have weird dreams.

Peace and Blessings..

Yes I do feel God was talking to me. The symbols to me are crystal clear. The snake is sin. It could be all sin, but when applied personally I think it is a specific sin. I think the whole scene is a trap set by satan, the presence in the second building, to lure me to the sin. From the very first I could have left it completely alone. It was contained in the first building, and could not escape, and now that I think about it, at first it wasn't deadly, it was just a snake. But I listened to the taunting, it appealed to my pride, (I can destroy the snake) Even though my friend (the holy spirit) was warning me not to listen, to talk to him first. of course I didn't listen. I challenged satan to his face, just me and him one on one. So when I went back to destroy the sin, it changed and became deadly, and on my own I end up letting the snake free to torment me, and no matter how hard I fought on my own I could not contain the snake, when all along all I had to do was ask my friend (the holy spirit) for help.

Part of my inturpretations was wrong. i was sharing the dream with my wife and we were talking about what it ment. she asked the question, why would satan (the old man) have directed you to seek Gods help in the end. The answer is that it was a twisted message from satan. His message was why didn't you ask your friend (God) to bring over a rake, ie. pin the snake down so that I could cut its head off. The problem is that satans answer kept me in control, I had the cutters. It was still me defeating the snake (sin) with alittle help from God. The only thing God (the friend) told me was stay away, don't listen to him, and talk to me first.

Excellent interpretation! Isn't it wonderful when the Lord speaks to us in our dreams.

Thanks for sharing!

Yeah to me it seemed like satan was involved in your dream, Kansas.

What did the camera represent? Is there some sort of sin, that is bothering you at the moment, or temptation? Just we feel convicted where there is sin. God gives us the strength to fight satan, and evil. We can't do it alone.

Peace and Blessings..

I don't know what the camera was about. That one has me alittle baffled, any thoughts?

Why do you think satan was involved with the dream. This is the most important question to ask.

Hmm.. i am not sure exactly what the camera represents at the moment, maybe it has a bearing on you going it alone, so to speak. Ok, i believe satan was in the dream taunting you.. that could represent him trying to tempt you into something, or pushing you to do something alone. And the 'friend' is God saying.. no wait, you can't. Or that you are trying to overcome or deal with something on your own, instead of putting it in Gods hands. Why did you go after the snake? It didn't really appear to be a threat to start with, yet it ended up as one. As you said if the snake represents sin, it started off small, then grew. And got out of control. No matter how much you tried, you weren't able to control it. Was God telling you, you need Him to conquere the problem? Is the bite, or the cut a wound of that sin or problem?

Peace and Blessings..

Ok I was confused by your statement. Yes I agree that the presence, later, older man was satan. I thought by your statement that you thought the entire dream was satan communicating with me, ie: a message from satan not from God, and that concerned me if you were seeing something I was not.

I think the camera represents a direct communication with satan. And you re right the snake was no threat at all to begin with. It was firmly encased in the first building wall. If I would have walked away, it would have had no influence at all.
