dreaming about naked people

[janny108]

Hi my sis had a dream about the whole family being naked and she felt left out and she walked in the room saying this was not appropriate. Any thoughts what this might mean?

Is the whole family saved (those in the dream)? Including your sister? And if so, does everyone really have an intimate relationship with God?

Sorry hit submit to soon intentionally - not trusting God.

I asked those questions because of what came to me and I was looking for justifcation in what came to mind.

What came to me was the nakedness we are to present ourselves to God with. He wants us bare and naked confessing all to Him not holding anything back. So if there's something that she is holding onto she needs to let it go and give it to God because He knows anyway. The feeling of being left out might be because God is trying to tell her that He doesn't want her to be left out of fellowship with Him.

Do have some insight to offer tho...who is saved and who isn't will shed much light, so waiting to reply...

In sis 1's dream she says "everyone in her family" (including us I guess, or maybe not since we live across the country) was naked except for her. And basically ignored her feelings, rights, her. She is not the kind to be ignored, nor is this true in life that she is ignored. Even after she says "this is inappropriate" she is ignored by her husband and he is socially with her family. Again, I don't know if we are in it or not.

My husband and I are saved, sis 1 (with the dream) says she is saved along with her husband that I believe they are as they have fruit in their lives.
I don't know if my aunt is saved or not along with her daughter; my aunt says she is.
Same with sis 2; looks like her husband is saved, maybe she is too, not sure. Reason I say not sure is there is never word other than they are going to church.
My dad? Good question; don't know if he is saved either.

I am presently writing her about something she said she had a gift for and she did not care where it came from. I wrote and told her it does matter because whom you serve is who your gifts will glorify, or something to that effect. Also they were at an occult wedding earlier this summer.

Is there something that the family is doing (eg gossiping about someone or hiding) that your sister is concerned about? There is possibly a indictaion of being shamed in soem way.

Tell her she really needs to pray and continue to seek God. You are right, God gave us our gifts and we are to use them to glorify Him to glorify anyone or anything else is rebelling against God. She can't allow the enemy to trip her into using her God given gifts to benefit any other kingdom other than the Kingdom of God.

I copied what I put in my second post to you below: Explaining is in blue.

Everyone was naked except for her. As humans we look at nakedness with shame because of sin. However, God wants us naked before us and Adam and Eve were naked until they sinned. Unconfessed sin in our lives makes us want to hide and cover ourselves before God. The only way to get cleansed is to bring our sin to God. He already knows but He wants us to tell Him so that we have an open and honest relationship with Him.

So if there's something that she is holding onto she needs to let it go and give it to God because He knows anyway. The feeling of being left out might be because God is trying to tell her that He doesn't want her to be left out of fellowship with Him.

All the people in the party were naked and fellowshipping. What I get is not so much the fact of her family was in the dream but God is trying to tell her that He desires more fellowship with her and I believe she is seeking to know more of Him. Well He wants her to lay all of her sins, hurts, frustrations, etc on Him and rest in Him. Doing so will have her naked before Him and she wont be trying to hide and cover her. The covering and hiding of us is His job, not ours.

Frustration comes when we try to do have something done by ourselves or other people, when God is the only one who can meet that particular need.

Oops!!! When I said:

It should have said:

Gossiping and telling all has always been a bit of a problem.

Well, since your sis is a Christian with good fruit would seem she be God's instrument of correction. Naked could symbolize exhibitionism...vainglory...doing things to purposefully draw attention to self...is that what some in the family do?

 

[janny108]

I'd say that is possible, perhaps the one who had the dream. That is interesting about being God's instrument of "correction, instruction,etc." That is the way I'd felt years ago as I was the only believer back then. But now I'm in another state.

I'd always thought nakedness was being vulnerable to God.

Exactly. It's not easy letting ourselves be vulnerable, being vulnerable opens us up to hurt, because we will be vulnerable with people but then put our guards up with God.

This is why I said I believe God is telling her to become naked before Him for the fellowship with Him.

 

[Johnnz]

Ok. Then the dream is suggesting that your sister dislikes all that 'undressing' that goes on.
