I am a serious backslider and I need help. I don't know the last time I went to church (maybe it was after 9/11) Well last night I had a dream in which I was fighting witches and then I suddenly found myself on the phone with somebody. I found my self saying I want to make a deal then the person on the other end asked me "you want to make a deal with me" then I said yes. I soon as I realised this my mind told me I had been talking to the devil then I woke up terrified. I immediately prayed to God and Jesus. I now feel awful thinking I may have made a horrible deal with the devil in my dream. Can someone ploase let me know if dreams mean anything at all. I recall a verse in the bible sing dreams and visions have no significance? I'm going to church this Sunday to try and reconnect with God again. Please help me and give your opinions on this. I feel awful right now...

First, welcome to Worthyboards Autismom!

First, let me say this - dreams don't always mean something. This one could be a wake up call or a big supper the night before. Regardless, you DO need to submit to God. You don't have to go to church to do that sis. You can do that whereever you are, right now. You go before Him in prayer, and tell Him what is honestly in your heart. Now, I'm certainly not telling you not to go to church, because I do think that you get a lot of good fellowship there. But don't wait for church. Do it now. Next, get back into the word. Read your bible often. Pray often. And fellowship here with other believers.

And yes, I will pray for you. Remember, God will not leave you, nor forsake you. He is still there waiting for you.

YSIC :rolleyes:

Hello Autismom,

Let me also Welcome you to the boards!

I don't believe that you can "make a deal with the devil" in your dreams. I believe that one must be conscience to make a choice. But I do think that perhaps your dream was a wake up call.

Whatever it was, you have now become aware of your need to get your heart right with God. Trav is right, you don't need to go to church to do that. Call upon the Lord and He WILL hear you. Confess your sin and turn away from that to Christ.

Church is a wonderful place to go to help you grow in the Lord and to make Christian friends that will encourage you and help you along the way.

You are also welcome here. There are some wonderful people who will pray with you and listen when you need a friend.

IR :il:

Traveller is 100% correct. Don't wait until Sunday to reconnect with the Lord. Do it right now! A very wise person said once, "The difference between your problem and a solution is the distance between your knees and the floor."

That's great! This is a good place to learn and to grow and to fellowship. We have some good people here. :blink: I'm glad you've decided to hang around. :rolleyes:

BTW - most of us DO know what it means to be given a second chance. We've all been there. :):P

:rolleyes::blink: That goes for me!

Thank you Lord for Your GRACE, and MERCY and DIVINE LOVE! Thank you Lord for 2nd chances! We praise YOU, all the GLORY is Yours. AMEN

Through the Blood of Jesus Christ, we have full remission from the penalty of our sins.

Romans 3

21 But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. 22 This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 25 God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood. He did this to demonstrate his justice, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished-- 26 he did it to demonstrate his justice at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.

Let me tell you from personal experience- Satan will attack you anywhere- especially in your dreams. Before I was born again I cussed like a sailor- after I made God 1# priority, He stopped the cussing. I didn't even think of a cuss word! I was so excited! But very soon after, I would have dreams of me cussing like crazy again, and I would wake up repenting! God knows your heart- He knows if it's your thoughts or Satans. He's such a conniving sneak, isn't he (Satan, that is)!

Be careful of the state your are in- lukewarm.

Revelation 3

16So, because you are lukewarm--neither hot nor cold--I am about to spit you out of my mouth.

I'm not judging you, but strictly going by your post, so please don't get offended. That is not my intention! :t2: Pray for the Holy Spirit to lay a conviction on your life. He consistently convicted me for over 2 years, and I ignored it, until I saw The Passion of the Christ. Before the movie, I asked for God to give me what I needed out of it. And He certainly did! I can honestly say for the first time in my entire life, if I died tonight, I KNOW I would go to Heaven. No doubt! Keep praying and the Lord will show you what to do. I'll pray for you! :rofl:

God Bless,

Shannon

BTW- Welcome to Worthy! Glad to have you!!! :t2:

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
