We received a call to pray for some ministers who were at a threshold of change and in need of direction. That night Marty and I both had strategic dreams specifically for those ministers. That had never happened before. In my dream, Marty and I were in a car with one of the ministers who was driving. The road we were on was one of the back-road highways in our county. When water started coming up over the road, I was able to give the driver instructions that would lead to another highway that was safe. When I awoke, I realized the waters represented troubling circumstances that meant the ministers would be wise to take another road before they reached a dangerous cross current in the path they were traveling. In a vision, I then saw from an aerial view, a map of my region. That map became instructions for a way out for the ministers. Each intersection on the map symbolized a choice they would soon face. Making a “right” turn would take them to a town whose name meant a place of refreshing and resource. Making another “right” turn would take them between the court house and some antique stores. That signified they would be dealing with legalism and traditionalism for a time. But, they would then be on their way to their original destination. The place they were headed was a place of rest and apostolic networking that the Holy Spirit brought to remembrance from another dream. In Marty’s dream, water was rising dangerously also and he was warning people to move out away from a lake. In his dream the emphasis was timing. There was a window of time to move before circumstances became overwhelming.

Overcome Powers of Darkness
May the people of God stand hand in hand facing the same goals with the same determination that the first century church had: to confront and overcome the powers of darkness in their nation with the compassion and resurrection power of their Lord and Savior, JESUS.
“For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotisms, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere.” (Eph.6:12, Amp)

Confronting Elements of Dreams With Prayer
To open the understanding of the symbolism of Buddha to the boy who had the dream, I explained that people who believe in Buddha believe that you have to give offerings to “make merit.” That means they believe you earn favor from Buddha because of giving gifts and behaving a particular way. You get merits for good behavior so that you will deserve acceptance and favor and protection from Buddha. That element of the dream revealed that his friend was upset either because she had messed up or fears she will mess up and God won’t bless her or accept her or protect her, etc. That misbelief that her acceptance and righteousness are based on her performance has her troubled and fearing failure. Understanding the conflict in his friend’s heart gave him strategy for intercession in her behalf. Just encouraging him to realize that the Holy Spirit will bring him strategic dreams about people and situations so he can confront it with prayer is an awesome awareness for his future and fulfillment of his purpose.

Right Questions Are Key
Those aforementioned questions are the kind of questions that lead down a path of deliverance, healing, and action. When we ask the right questions we are able to hear the answers we need. When we ask fear-based questions we have already come to the wrong, statistic-based, society-experienced conclusions. These soulish conclusions make it really hard to hear a Spirit answer. So, a good place to start asking the right question is to ask the Holy Spirit, “What questions should I be asking about this situation?” He will tell you, and most of the time these questions carry the answer in them. The right questions are a key to unlock doors and chains. The right questions give you the right perspective.

Training For New Norms
A twelve-year-old boy I spoke with recently received a word of knowledge in a dream about what was troubling his friend as well as a word of wisdom that gave strategy to address it. Those gifts of the Spirit activated in his dream are marks of a new norm for him. Rather than a random one-time experience, those gifts are already active in him for his lifetime purpose. His dream started with a black dog and a white dog. That setting indicates a conflict in the soul, the black dog (which represents negative or wrong thoughts and feelings) was bigger than the white dog (which symbolizes right thinking and feelings and behavior.) In the dream he heard someone say that his friend was crying and upset because someone had brought a Buddha into her life. This twelve-year-old did not know dogs can refer to the soul in symbolism. I doubt he even had a working definition for the word “soul.” It is also highly likely he had no knowledge of the culture and beliefs of Buddhism. Yet these symbolic elements were in his dream, so that reveals the need for training and equipping him for new norms in dreaming in the future.

Asking The Right Questions
Now that it is settled that (1) you are not junk, (2) You have not messed up your “one shot”, and (3) you do not have to live with sickness and pain, let’s step back to get an even bigger view, and ask the right questions:
– So, due to the above stated facts, is what I am going through right now because of what I carry and NOT because I have been forgotten?
– Is this physical issue I’m dealing with simply the poison being pulled to the top so that I can be delivered of a long-cycling issue?
– Is this heaviness from the war in the atmosphere, and I carry the words to change that?

New Norms
I have sensed for several months that the Body of Christ is in an important time of transition into new norms. One of the new norms I believe we can expect is strategic dreams that equip us for the purposes of God. I consider strategic dreams to be those timely telegrams that confirm direction or give instruction or release insight and understanding for a mandate and call to action.

Speaking Bible Truth
As the people of God assemble today, may they be of one heart and one mind to hear the
truths of God in His Word and to “speak the same thing” that the Holy Bible declares so
that the truths of God Most High, that represent His character and that bless and give life,
may not be considered arguable by regional or culturally preferential viewpoints.
“Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak
the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined
together in the same mind and in the same judgment.” (1Cor.1:10, NKJV)
Open Doors You Have not Even Imagined
Recently, while ministering in another city, we were staying in a hotel. The second day I happened to notice the slip cover for the room key. On the front it said “Doors are opening that you have not even imagined.” May the Lord work His wonders to open doors that have not even entered the imagination of His people for His Kingdom purposes.
“[ Pray for Open Doors ] Pray diligently…” (Col.4:2, Msg)
