Confronting Elements of Dreams With Prayer

MoonCloudsDreamTo 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

HandOnKey
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

StudentsTeacherA 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

ThinkingLookingUp
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

SkyRedSunriseI 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

GroupTalking
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

Open doors
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)

Character For Order

SunCrop
The “THY” of “Thy Kingdom” redeems a person, redeems a thing to bring them back to their path to God’s original intent (Kathy G.). Creation is groaning for the manifestation of the sons of God who will be manifest in the character of the “THY” of “Thy Kingdom” so that it can get back to its intended order. His character observed in His sons identifies them as His sons to people, to powers and to principalities. May we be so full of the character of this awesome “THY” that no demon ever need ask, “Jesus I know and Paul I know, but who are you?” (Acts 19:15; also Eph.3:10).

Here To Make A Difference

HelpingOthers
Having a relationship with the King is an eye-opener: You are not junk.  You have not messed up your fictitious “one shot”.  You do not have to live with sickness and pain.  You most certainly DO have something to deposit where you are and where He takes you.  You/we are here for a purpose beyond occupying space and time.  You are here to make a difference.  There is healing in knowing this!

Redemptive Character Resolves Issues

RainbowOverCity
Opportunities for redemptive acts, for releasing the character of the “THY” of “Thy Kingdom” are everywhere everyday. Redemptive character does not look for opportunity to take advantage but looks for a way to get others out of the path of destruction. Redemptive character gives and plays a part in the resolve of the issue or need. It does whatever it takes to heal. It puts itself on the line, just like Jesus, in order to bring back the captives from destruction and set them free.
