Last night I had a dream and I'm not sure what it meant.
I was in a creek about waist deep walking up stream then all of a sudden this ball of water raises up out of the water and it's spinning and of course I was scared but before I could even blink the ball of water was hurled at my by an unknown source and it hits me and breaks apart but I fill something hit me and inter inside my body with force .( It didn't go threw me ) and as I feel it going threw out my body then i am paralyzed and I sink into the creek and I wake up. Any thoughts on that? I have been baptized but not with the holy spirit as far as I know . But when I felt it hit my body it felt so real but I knew I was dreaming. if it's Good talking to me I really would like to know what it means. And to know if it is God speaking to me thru my dreams because that's super exciting to me. Anyway thanks for taking the time to read this and any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks

I had a similar dream where I was running down a mountain that had massive rocks. One of them was the size of a house. It started falling towards me, so I ran down this mountain, but tripped and fell backwards into a crystal clear pool of water. My body was perfectly flat, fully submerged, and with open eyes I seen through the clear ripples of water, the growing shadow of this giant rock closing in.
When it fell...everything went black. I felt incredible peace within me.
You could relate this verse to Jesus' teaching: "He who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed."
Baptism and getting crushed by Jesus, 2 in 1 dream? I don't believe so.

I would say, no yours wasn't a baptism.

Dreams can be from God, but also from evil. Sometimes they are meaningless. Dreams can result from overthinking about one particular thing.
Also, this seems like a forced baptism, which the Bible doesn't teach.

Typically dreams and the physical can be interlaced, where you experience what you dream to what you feel in the physical. So paralyzation in the dream would be a normal sleep paralysis. I assume this dream was in the early morning.

hmm no idea what it means but the waist deep caught my attention because of the reference to Ezekiel and Isaiah because of the gentle flowing waters that didn’t correspond with the dream but more to the river...

Again he measured a thousand cubits and led me through waist-deep water. Once again he measured off a thousand cubits, but now it was a river that I could not cross, because the water had risen and was deep enough for swimming—a river that could not be crossed on foot.…Ezekiel 47:4-5

“Inasmuch as these people have rejected the gently flowing waters of Shiloah
And rejoice in Rezin and the son of Remaliah;
“Now therefore, behold, the Lord is about to bring on them the strong and abundant waters of the Euphrates,
Even the king of Assyria and all his glory;
And it will rise up over all its channels and go over all its banks.
“Then it will sweep on into Judah, it will overflow and pass through,
It will reach even to the neck;
And the spread of its wings will fill the breadth of your land, O Immanuel…. Isaiah 8:6-8

Does that strike any truth (belt of truth) in your life ;(

That sounds more like the fight between voldemort and dumbledor in Harry Potter. So first I would wonder if you had watched that episode.

My first thought is that God would never impose something on you without your full knowledge, free will and choice so while I believe the dream may represent a desire you have deep within your spirit or God trying to lay baptism of His Holy Spirit upon your heart through a dream I don't believe you received this gift in a dream. He requires us to choose and to receive and that involves our will and consent.

If at any waking moment that you've thought about being baptized by the Holy Spirit.. then the dream is the result. The content shows you as far as you might think it would be like.
For the most part dreams show us what we'd been focusing on, experiencing or thinking of during our waking hours. Dreams also show you what you might not have been consciously aware of too.

When the baptism of the Holy Spirit occurs He does not enter you from outside of you with force, because the Holy Spirit is already inside you by virtue of the new birth.

If you felt nothing then, you'll feel nothing in the baptism for operating in the gifts of the Spirit. Remember how the Spirit came upon Jesus as a dove? Those birds are not forceful creatures.

Any feeling that you might initially experience will be joy, but that would be entirely you.

The first result of the baptism of the Holy Spirit is speaking in tongues, as evidenced by every occasion throughout the book of Acts when someone received.

Perhaps more study of the Bible regarding the topic would be helpful to you.

Thank you for your responce. When I imagined being baptized in the holy spirit I imagined it would feel kind of like that. When I said by force it wasnvpike forced apon me but I could feel whatever it was entering my body and that's what I kind of imagined. But I really don't feel any different and I dont know if there is some kind of action I need to take in order be able to use the gift given if I was baptized. I haven't spoken in tongues yet either. I'm anxious for the holy spirit . I study daily and watch my local preaching channel soaking up all I can. But anyway thank you for responding. I appreciate it. I love learning about God I'm sorta addicted. I've learned a lot in the last year. Gods love for us is beyond words and Jesus is our sweetest friend. It's a whole new world knowing that.

Now that you are awake, do you find yourself gifted with the gifts of the Holy Spirit as described in 1 Corinthians 12?
I really don't feel that much different. I know that I am anxious to receive the holy spirit tho.

I am very willing to receive the holy spirit. I prayed to receive it but feel no difference. Some ppl say they feel different and I've heard others say they don't and they have to practice speaking in tongues and their prayer langue. So I'm just not sure.

Glory to GOD! Your dream is beautiful.

The water is THE WORD.

Eph 5:26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

Joh 15:3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.

Heb 10:22 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.

Jer_31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.

Rev 21:6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
Rev 21:7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.

Yes.... I do believe that you can be baptized in the Holy Spirit during dreams.

It is pretty amazing what this author was shown for England during a series of dreams. He certainly grew from the dreams as well.

I pasted this in a previous thread but it really got me interested. I had a dream similar to some of your dreams. If you don’t mind me sharing, could you look into it. I’ve recently been asking God to fill me with the Holy Ghost prior to this dream:

Dream 04-28-2020

I was in this big city and somehow I knew that the rapture could be at any moment. It was a clear bright beautiful day. Hardly any clouds and the sun was beaming.

When I looked in the sky I saw birds circling like they were forming a cyclone. Like a tornado before it comes down to touch the earth. Also in the sky were all kinds of animals, elephants, giraffes, you know name it. They were just sitting there like they were waiting to be taken up.

I was hungry for God and i had been praying for Him to fill me with the Holy Ghost. So I was in the back of a pick up truck that was going super fast; I don’t know who was driving. There was this old man in the back with me. I was so earnest and zealous to be filled. I would look on the back of cars where the license plate was and God would give me instructions through words, but I had to read them off of different signs and cars and such. He would tell me what to pray about. And most times it would be the same thing but with something new added each time. This went on for a while. It got to the point where I was like “is this gonna happen?”

So finally I got a little restless. So I looked up directly at the sun, took the old man’s hand and placed it on my forehead and said “by faith I believe You (God) will fill me.” And all of a sudden it was like the wind overtook me and I started screaming but as I was screaming it felt like my tongue was going 100 mph! I knew this was the Holy Ghost! This went on for a little while. It was beyond what I ever imagined!

Finally the truck stopped and I immediately got out and started shouting and dancing and glorifying and praising God. I couldn’t help myself. People were looking at me crazy but I knew they had no idea of what I’ve been through.

At that point I just wanted to get to my wife and son to tell them what had happened so I started running I didn’t know where I was going but I knew that they was there.

Then I woke up........mad lol
