Hi,

I get quite a lot of dreams. I believe that some are God speaking, but I'm not yet spiritually mature enough to discern what is from God, what is a product of my imagination/stuff I've read in the news, or other influences. I'm going to post a couple here and see what you make of them.

1.) (this was 15th January) I'm in a castle setting. My friend is keeping watch in one of the high towers in the castle. There is an enemy inside the castle walls and we are spying on him with some kind of levitating camera. Suddenly my friend spots something from the tower, and in an instant I can see from his perspective, high up. Down below me is woodland, and on the horizon an army of footsoldiers, stretching a long way into the distance, marching towards us. This large army is sudden and unexpected, but a small number of our soldiers are already standing prepared. The army meets them and they start fighting in the front lines. The dream ends.

2.) I'm on an island, part of a chain of islands which seems to be a sort of conglomeration of the UK, USA and I think France. I was living in the british part. In the South part of the island was a city, which had in the past developed nuclear fission bombs. The threat now was coming from fusion, hundreds of times more powerful and deadly than fission. My friends from church and I were trying to get away from this town, further north, by car. The problem was, all the roads North seemed to be blocked by police tape, and the only open roads led Southwards again. In another part of the dream I saw from a satellite view that there was a part of one of the islands that was 'paradise', and a couple of my friends had gone there before me. In my dream I sort of flew there, and landed in a wooded area with my other friend. Here we were safe from the threat.

:confused:

I'm in a castle setting (Something traditional, built over many years & enduring over many years. Provides protection for those inside, & people can live there. Could symbolize the church.). My friend (Perhaps a reference to Jesus. Sometimes his humanity is revealed in dreams & in ways He wasnts us to grow in our understanding of aspects of who He is) is keeping watch in one of the high towers (From a position closer to the Lord, perhaps refering to watchman. Is 62:6-7) in the castle. There is an enemy inside the castle walls (The enemy endevours to attach the church from the inside using Christians as well as the ourside) and we are spying on him with some kind of levitating camera (Visions, dreams, prophetic revealation of the enemy's activity). Suddenly my friend spots something from the tower, and in an instant I can see from his perspective (From heaven's perspective, things we cannot see from a human perspective ), high up. Down below me is woodland, and on the horizon (Something coming from a distance, in the future) an army of footsoldiers (Note there are many but they are limited- no chariots, horses), stretching a long way into the distance, marching (suggests order/strategy) towards us. This large army is sudden and unexpected (but revealed in the dream, prophetically ), but a small number (Maybe this is a point for prayer, more people ready to do battle. People I spend time with, including me seem to pray less than we did 10-20 years ago. Not sure if this is a general churchwdie thing or stage of life. Since the 90s, spiritual warfare has gone out of vogue & I think less people are prepared for battle) of our soldiers are already standing prepared. The army meets them and they start fighting in the front lines. (The dream finishes as the battle begins)

This dream has as kind of end times feel to it to me. People on the forum regularly have dreams that reveal or highlight different aspects of things that are ahead of us. But there may be a current message in relation to your church or denomination. It may be good to seek the Lord about this. How could you pray in response to the dream?

The dream seems to highlight the importance of the watchman role- people who spend a lot of time with the Lord & hear things from Him, understanding the enemies strategies & timing. See 2 Kings 6:8-12 & ehlping the church to be prepared.

Jesus has a lot to say about keeping watch ...

Thanks Firewater, your reply is really helpful and kind of how I interpreted it, though you provided a lot of clarification :) At the moment God is doing things in our church, there is a women's prayer warriors meeting that has recently started, as well as a meeting for waiting on God which just started last Friday. Intercession and spiritual warfare is something that's definitely increasing, as well as prophetic words from God. It's quite exciting, really, to see all that He is doing.

Anyway, thanks again for the insight... I guess I could pray for more spiritual warriors in the church & preparation for attacks from the enemy. I know I need to pray more in general myself... I've a lot to learn...

It's usually the case that the remnant of God is outnumbered. Few are willing to stand for God when the heat is turned up. This also works for the glory of God, lest we believe that our own strength has won the battle, and place our trust in it. One good example of this is Gideon fighting the Midianites (judg 6).

In the second dream the threat comes from the south, or down below, and escalates. I'm not a scientist, but I think whereas fission is a uphill process all the way, fusion involves a reaction that at some point becomes self-sustaining. Your dream does have an eschatological sense to it, and we are approaching a point where things are going to take on a destructive life of their own, wholly out of anyone's control.

All the natural ways of escape are blocked, but with spiritual vision, represented by the satellite, you find a refuge in the wilderness. This is how it will be in the spirit for the saints of God as times continue to degenerate.
and the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, in which she is to be nourished for 1,260 days. -Rev 12:6

Thanks, Just. One other little tidbit. It was police tape that prevented natural escape. This suggests the authorities turning against us and hemming us in, which is increasingly the case.

I view the islands as a place where there is 'isolation'.. in context of the dream this may be about segregation or being set apart (both in a good and a bad way depending on what each island represents)... There is going to be some upheaval but the Lord is showing you that in the end, you will over-come (flying symbolizes rising above things in the Spirit). You will also be led out from a place where you feel very alone (island) and brought into a place where you are surrounded by believers (trees in the Word often symbolize people).. a safe place for you - paradise.
I pray that 'pings' in your spirit
God bless
