(Kathy Gabler) — When considering a dream, knowing whether a dream is from God or not may help bring clarity. Sometimes we figure out in hind sight that a dream was from God, but it is still a valuable insight for future reference. If a dream is from God, it is a God-to-Man communication, revelation, realization or confirmation coming down to us. If a dream is a self-to-self communication it is coming up from our heart or core to get information and conditions up into our mind-awareness. (Fourth excerpt from Kathy’s article “Considering Dreams and Visions”)

As the people of God assemble on Pentecost Sunday, may they hear afresh their Lord as He charges His followers: “He commanded them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for what the Father had promised,” (Acts 1:4) “And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost” (John 20:22) and then Apostle Paul throws in: “And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;” (Eph 5:18). The tense used in the original language actually reads: “BE YE BEING FILLED WITH THE SPIRIT”. In other words, there is to be an ongoing filling or a series of fillings.

Mighty Jehovah acts in a moment of time. People can be up against an insurmountable wall of opposition in one moment and in the next moment, the Lord God has acted upon people and circumstances to bring about a whole different outcome. The “perfect storm” can be formed and can be thrashing you about until you believe that there is no way to survive and there certainly is no way through. But, in a moment of time the Master can speak to the storm and, because the wind and storm know His name, you are surrounded by calm and then there is the shore. ”Who has heard of such a thing? Who has seen such things? Shall a land be born in one day? Or shall a nation be brought forth in a moment? For as soon as Zion was in labor, she brought forth her children.” (Isa.66:8, Amp) (Remember May 14,1948?)

(Kathy Gabler) — Although the Holy Spirit sometimes gives a word of wisdom which reveals a dream’s message, meaning and purpose all at once, it is just as fulfilling to get to the message, meaning and purpose through the process of prayerfully searching them out. We can sit at the Lord’s feet and lean against His knee and ponder the pieces of a dream. Sometimes we don’t even have to completely dismantle the dream to get the gist of it, but it if it does require more effort, then we research the Bible and reference books and friends until the concepts connect and open our understanding. God created dreams and visions to communicate and He will certainly help us get to understanding. (Third excerpt from Kathy’s article “Considering Dreams and Visons”)

The Lord DOES give His angels charge to guard us. If it had not been for that very wonderful means of Jehovah’s intervention, I would have fallen off our second story porch headfirst yesterday on to our cement driveway when a banister broke loose that I had all my weight on! BUT I was kept from falling! The name of the Lord be praised! ”He ordered his angels to guard you wherever you go. If you stumble, they’ll catch you; THEIR JOB IS TO KEEP YOU FROM FALLING.” (Ps.91:11-12, Msg)

Perhaps you have experienced how the Holy Spirit sometimes gives you a word of wisdom which reveals a dream’s message, meaning and purpose all at once. It is like a light suddenly coming on or subtitles coming across the scenes. I love it when God does that, as was the case recently. On a three-way call with intercessors, a lady told her dream about a friend who had just been notified he had an aggressive cancer. The dreamer was surprised because her friend didn’t even look sick. In fact he looked in the peak of health and fitness. As she told the dream, I heard, “It is not physical cancer. It is bitterness that is targeting him, but has not successfully overtaken him.” God revealed an assignment and a call to intercession through word of wisdom revealed by the Spirit. (Second excerpt from Kathy’s article “Considering Dreams and Visons”)

May the Lord help us to communicate clearly what we need to communicate to others and may we receive the clear communication from others that we need to receive. “Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment, so that it will give grace to those who hear.” (Eph.4:29, NASB)“You are worthy of it all”

When considering a dream or vision, the goal is communication. Understanding the way you dream and the language that may be unique to your dreams, is equipping for life. This “understanding” is a major part of “having an ear to hear”. You may already understand most of your dreams and already know when they are from God or for a God-purpose, so your only challenge may be figuring out how to follow up or walk them out in real life.
