Here is a lady's dream that I interpreted and her response...:D

Her dream:

I dreamt that I was promoted at work to a job grade 4(we do not have such job grades in our company). When I went to the back office, I found the employees praising and worshipping, (this is unusual as I work in a secular environment). I wanted to share Phil 4 verse 14 to the staff, however, I found that the scripture had faded in my NKJV bible, and I commented to the people it could be that it is the most read scripture in my bible. Before I could get my Amplified bible to read the scripture, I woke up.

What is amazing, is that when I did read the scripture in the morning, it was the first time I ever read it. It reads from the New International Version" Yet it was good of you to share in my troubles" ??????

My intrepretation:

Sweet Shalom!

Your dream seems to be God commending you for your Christian witness in your workplace! The NKJV of that verse exhorts YOU HAVE DONE WELL...it being faded would signify you have INDEED DONE that WORD sooooooooooo much that it is no longer something only read on a page, but has actually become God's Word living powerfully and continually within you!!!!!!! God will surely promote you, a wholehearted doer of His Word!!!!!!!


NKJV Philippians 4:14 Nevertheless you have done well that you shared in my distress.

Also surmising that because of your Christian witness where you work that Jesus been drawing your coworkers to Himself, so they will be praising and worshipping Him! Another verse in Philippians 2 vs 13 exhorts For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure. I read this means God works in YOU what will draw others to JESUS!

Since your dream included Philippians 4 vs 14, stands to reason that the whole chapter has more blessings for you giving you much to rejoice over, as there is certainly a harvest of blessing accumulating to your account because of your considerateness for others!

James 3:17-18 But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. Peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness.

Dreamer's feedback...My daily prayer is to reflect God's heart. I have been working at the current company for only 10 months, as a manager, and I walked into an environment where there was alot of cursing, backstabbing and racial victimization. I was "permanently" on my knees and had to keep my focus on God, and you know what, He carried me. For the past month or two I noticed a difference in the the attitude of the people. They started telling me about their problems and I could minister to them. All praise and Glory to God.

Also to let you know, I did get a promotion today, with a big salary increase, and the reason given to me was that I came and made a difference in the work environment. This can only be God as the job offer is again to an environment that I have never worked in before. There is also a lot more people and a younger crowd too. When I was told of the job offer, it was such a humbling experience, as I again saw how small I am and how BIG GOD IS. There is also a bigger challenge awaiting me in the new job, but if God before me, who can be against me, and...


"I can do all things through Christ Who strengthens me"
"His GRACE is sufficient"
"When I am weak, HE IS MY STRENGTH."
"The JOY of the Lord is my strength" and I can go on...

God bless you!

Here is one for you Humble Bee:
Last night I dreamed I was riding in the pickup with my husband and we are both only wearing bath towels and we are traveling down a country road looking for a good church. we are in a different part of the country (not here in the desert, somewhere with thick green grass). Someone makes the comment that good Churches are hard to find. The road runs north-south

tes, rejoicing with you as your dream does have an uplifting message! A pickup truck symbolizes being ministered to and or spiritual warfare. Bath towels could symbolize intimacy, comfort and encouragement through meaningful relationships. Country road could indicate that you and your hubby have felt isolated. Grass is a symbol of growth, since it was so thick, surmising God is about to plant you and your hubby in a church where you both will be deeply ministered to and also where you both will spiritually flourish! :D As for the road running north-south, think that would be an exhortation to rather than be downcast, keep looking up! ;)

Psalm 42:11 Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise Him, my Savior and my God.

Psalm 52:8-9 But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in God's unfailing love for ever and ever. I will praise You forever for what You have done; in Your name I will hope, for Your name is good. I will praise You in the presence of Your saints.

Psalm 84:1-4 How lovely is your dwelling place, O LORD Almighty! My soul yearns, even faints, for the courts of the LORD; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God...O LORD Almighty, my King and my God. Blessed are those who dwell in your house; they are ever praising you. Selah

Psalm 92:12-13 The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, they will grow like a cedar of Lebanon; planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God.

Psalm 121:1-2 I lift up my eyes to the hills-where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.

Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.

Proverbs 13:14 Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.

Isaiah 55:8-13 "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the LORD. "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands. Instead of the thornbush will grow the pine tree, and instead of briers the myrtle will grow. This will be for the LORD's renown, for an everlasting sign..."

Hey I have a dream, if you could please try to interpret it.
BKGRND info: There is a guy from my church (about 5- or 6 yrs older than me) that I am friends with. He's totally been there to support me and help me through some very hard times in the past two years. However, very rarely does he choose to voice his problems or air what may be bothering him.
The dream: All that I remember is, In this dream the guy looked at me and said something to the effect of "What if I never meet my future wife" and I reached out and grasped His hand and said, "I'm sure that one day your wife will hold your hand and be very happy with you." The guy looked sheepishly away but a slight smile had begun to form on his face. I continued, "And if not, when you get to heaven, your Bridegroom will be more than happy to be wed to you forever"-- At that the guy grinned a wonderful smile... and thats all I remember.
Let me know if God speaks to you. Thanks and be ever blessed

Thank you HumbleBee,
Your interpertation fit so well that it brought tears to my eyes.
Let it be so,
Amen

Wow Templeton!

God is obviously showing you that this dude both hopes for a wifey, yet worries about trying to find her. Agreeing that the love of Jesus surpasses comprehension and even human love, though God certainly loves us through people! :hug: Share this dream with him, yet reword the "And if not" (tiz a hope fizzler, sort of negative sounding) though surely do encourage him to enjoy Jesus :D ...to look at this waiting time as Divine preparation for marriage, and even to pray for his yet to be revealed wifey. :prayer:

Here be a handful of Bible verses to help hearten him...

Psalm 37:3-5 Trust in the LORD, and do good; dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. Delight yourself also in the LORD, and He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass.

Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.

Jeremiah 29:11-14For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart. I will be found by you," declares the LORD...

Matthew 6:25-34 Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life...For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well...

Romans 15:13 May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Ephesians 3:16-19 I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.

Ooh...I'm really enjoying these!

I had a vision as I was waking up. I was shown a mountain...almost an outline of a drawing of a mountain. There were two men at the bottom...a lean man and a 'rotund' man. They were instructed to go up the mountain. The lean man took off and the large man just stood there. I heard the words..."The fat man doesn't even go five feet up the mountain...No, he doesn't even try."

I have an opinion about what this may mean, but was curious as to how it spoke to your spirit.

Also, several times when I've prayed for a good friend's son (22yrs. old, married looking for his career)...I've seen a bright green vine or the color green. Another time, I prayed and saw a big honeycomb with honey oozing out of the comb. The parents are praying that he'll want to seek the Lord.

I'm pretty fresh out of the box in all this...filled with the Spirit last Nov. I've gotten many, many visions and words and dreams....It's rather amazing.

They were instructed to go up the mountain. The lean man took off and the large man just stood there. I heard the words..."The fat man doesn't even go five feet up the mountain...No, he doesn't even try."

The mountain would symbolize living as a Christian, certainly an upward climb, not at all easy, requiring much perseverance and much personal energetic participaction! The lean man would represent a Christian who has died to self, setting their heart wholly on walking in the Spirit, doing the Word, living for Christ, Himself and bringing glory to His Name! :D The fat man would symbolize spiritual complacency, a Christian still full of self, who been weighed down by worldly appetites, making them dull in terms of ambition to seek higher spiritual experiences with their Lord! :sigh:

Matthew 11:28-30 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.

Mark 4:18-20 Now these are the ones sown among thorns; they are the ones who hear the word, and the cares of this world, the deceitfulness of riches, and the desires for other things entering in choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. But these are the ones sown on good ground, those who hear the word, accept it, and bear fruit: some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some a hundred.

Philippians 3:18-19 For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame--who set their mind on earthly things.

Hebrews 12:1-2 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.


Also, several times when I've prayed for a good friend's son (22yrs. old, married looking for his career)...I've seen a bright green vine or the color green. Another time, I prayed and saw a big honeycomb with honey oozing out of the comb. The parents are praying that he'll want to seek the Lord.

Well, for this young man, a bright green vine would tend to represent new spiritual growth...he being attached to Jesus, the True Vine and honey would symbolize the impartation of wisdom from above...oozing...overflowing with Divine understanding! God certainly answering your prayers! :holy:

Proverbs 24:13-14 My son, eat honey because it is good, and the honeycomb which is sweet to your taste; so shall the knowledge of wisdom be to your soul; if you have found it, there is a prospect, and your hope will not be cut off.

John 15:1, 4-5 I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser...Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me...I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.

James 3:17-18 But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. Peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness.

1 John 5:14-15 Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.


I'm pretty fresh out of the box in all this...filled with the Spirit last Nov. I've gotten many, many visions and words and dreams....It's rather amazing.

Please do share onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn! :hug:

Ok...this one from summer 2003. I can't stop thinking about it. Before the vision and dream a tiny bit of background.
A friend, Cathy, shared about her friend 'Jane' who had agressive cancer.
As I was driving down the road, I prayed for Jane...whom I didn't know. During my prayer, I heard these words in my spirit..."She CAN be healed. It's a spiritual attack. Satan is trying to destroy her testimony." (Jane had just recently accepted Jesus...though she had been attending Catholic Mass, she had never truly accepted Him)
A few nights later, I had this dream.
I went to Jane's house. Several things were boxed up as if they were moving in or out. There was a big, five-foot tall crucifix in the living room amongst the boxes. I went over to it and said,"You have to get Jesus down off the cross. He was buried and rose again. There's needs to be a ceremony. Something that will represent His rising up from the grave....Just as you'll rise up and have a new body....Yes, a ceremony...there needs to be a ceremony."
I woke up....wide awake...with every vivid detail full up front. It was 4:51 a.m. I laid in bed thinking about the dream and asking the Lord if it was from Him. At 5:00 a.m., the downstairs clocked chimed to mark the hour...only this time...instead of playing the westminister chimes.....it played amazing grace. I was completely awake....sitting up in bed with my eyes wide and my mouth dropped open I'm sure. Of course, hubbie was out of town, so no witness. I was shocked as you can imagine.
I tried calling Cathy to share this and no answer for a week. Then I had a dream that said,"Call Cathy right now...she's home." I woke up...called..and she was just walking in the door from Canada. Cathy eventually shared this with her and she said I was the third person to dream about her. Anyway, to make a long story short, I had another vision while praying for this woman's testimony. I saw a tree branch that was growing and spreading with the leaves branching out. Jane died this spring. If these were from the Lord...what was the purpose (and I don't mean to be disrespectful) if she just up and died....did she maybe need deliverance?. I kept thinking about going to her and praying over her...but I was scared. At the time, I had not received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, but had been hearing,"I want to use you for healing..." I carried some false burden, wondering why the dream and vision. I really thought she would be healed and have an awesome testimony. Any thoughts? :sigh:

Hello,

If you would please, an insight into this dream.

In the dream, I own 3 houses. Two of them need work done to them, and we live in one of those needing work. The others seem to be rentals. All of a sudden, I am looking at what seems to be the front of the smallest house. The one that needs no work. There is no "front walkway" to the house, but the front of the house is plain looking, and there are rocks of varying sizes strewn all over. the next thing, both my wife and myself are inside the house. It seems to be quite expansive. We appear to be in a large room, and looking at the back wall is a open door, which has a stairway leading down into water. Clear, glasslike water, with the water having no movement, being able to see the bottom. Back in the large room, and next to the door is a a very large bay-type window. Looking out that window, I see a large expanse of water, the same body of water as outside of the door, with a very large monolithic rock jutting up into the sky. end of dream.

The only background I have, of course is a Christian nature, and an ongoing restoration of an old historic house that takes up too much of my spare time, and it also being my second spare time restoration work, while living in it.

Anyway, thanx, and just curious....

Hugggggggggggggs Hisgirl! Insight interspersed in red...

***Ok...this one from summer 2003. I can't stop thinking about it. Before the vision and dream a tiny bit of background. A friend, Cathy, shared about her friend 'Jane' who had agressive cancer. As I was driving down the road, I prayed for Jane...whom I didn't know. During my prayer, I heard these words in my spirit..."She CAN be healed. It's a spiritual attack. Satan is trying to destroy her testimony." (Jane had just recently accepted Jesus...though she had been attending Catholic Mass, she had never truly accepted Him)***

About the above, "She CAN be healed." This doesn't necessarily say that she would for certain be healed in this life. Jesus well able to heal her, though He reigns supreme in having not done so.

***A few nights later, I had this dream. I went to Jane's house. Several things were boxed up as if they were moving in or out. There was a big, five-foot tall crucifix in the living room amongst the boxes. I went over to it and said,"You have to get Jesus down off the cross. He was buried and rose again. There's needs to be a ceremony. Something that will represent His rising up from the grave....Just as you'll rise up and have a new body....Yes, a ceremony...there needs to be a ceremony."***

Surmising this dream was a foretelling of Jane's death. She moved into heaven! Maybe was Jane about 5 feet tall? The crucifix could represent her and that just as Jesus died, was buried, and rose again, so too Jane will be! She indeed will rise up and have a new body!

1 Corinthians 15:50-54 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption. Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed--in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory.

***I woke up....wide awake...with every vivid detail full up front. It was 4:51 a.m. I laid in bed thinking about the dream and asking the Lord if it was from Him. At 5:00 a.m., the downstairs clocked chimed to mark the hour...only this time...instead of playing the westminister chimes.....it played amazing grace. I was completely awake....sitting up in bed with my eyes wide and my mouth dropped open I'm sure. Of course, hubbie was out of town, so no witness. I was shocked as you can imagine.***

Amazing Grace, commonly sung at funerals, was another Divine foretelling of Jane's death...grace has indeed led Jane home! 5 actually represents the grace of God! His grace is sufficient for you. Though you felt you should pray for her, you didn't because of God's grace and Sovereignty! He was protecting you from praying in presumption, preserving your testimony! Had you prayed for Jane's healing in person and then she died, you would have been discouraged, as would those watching would have had reason for cynicism. Had God wanted to heal Jane through your prayers, He would have given you such exceeding joy, peace, and a clear hopeful expectation that He would indeed do just that. So since you had fear, tiz an indication that you were not to go to her house and pray. You didn't go, so rejoice you passed a Divine test! Tiz certainly wise to recognize the Holy Spirit's leading. If you fearful or not willing to do something, pray and find out why. Knowing God's Will makes one bold! ;)

Philippians 2:12-13 Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.

***I saw a tree branch that was growing and spreading with the leaves branching out. Jane died this spring.***

This could represent Jane and her testimony...how she affected others while she lived is still bearing fruit.

Mark 4:30-32 Again He said, "What shall we say the kingdom of God is like, or what parable shall we use to describe it? It is like a mustard seed, which is the smallest seed you plant in the ground. Yet when planted, it grows and becomes the largest of all garden plants, with such big branches that the birds of the air can perch in its shade."

John 12:23-24 Jesus replied, The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds.

***At the time, I had not received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, but had been hearing, "I want to use you for healing..." I carried some false burden, wondering why the dream and vision. I really thought she would be healed and have an awesome testimony.***

Surmising since you have a Divine calling for a healing ministry, this experience of yours about Jane was a test that the devil tried to turn into a scheme for discouraging you from getting into the ministry...to try and prevent you from being God's instrument to bring liberty to others! However, God works all for good, so view it as a lesson in discerning His Will more carefully.

Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

Sent my interpretation of Daneel's dream via pm, so here it is my now edited version with his permitting-to-post reply, plus his own interpretation. Mine was in the right ballpark...;)

Certainly rejoicing with you Daneel that ye and your wifey are lovebirds! :hug: O what manner of love the Father has lavished on you both! (1 John 3:1)

Daneel,

Hmmm dream theme seems to be restoration!

The stairway leading down to the water could represent times of refreshing will come from Jesus! :D

The clear, glass-like water with no movement would represent peace, utter tranquility! Even to be still and know that God is God and be still before God that He may minister restoration to your souls and marriage if need be.

Window tends to represent, a coming Divine opportunity and certainly sounds like your dream foretells of you and your wifey having a reviving encounter with Christ! Even to remember Him in your day and marriage...He is your Chief Cornerstone, your Rock of Gibraltar!

Psalm 18:1-2 I will love You, O LORD, my strength. The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

Psalm 23:1-3 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake.

Psalm 61:1-4 Hear my cry, O God; listen to my prayer. From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I. For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe. I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Selah


Isaiah 58:11-14 The LORD will guide you always; He will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail. Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins and will raise up the age-old foundations; you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls, Restorer of Streets with Dwellings. "If you keep your feet from breaking the Sabbath and from doing as you please on my holy day, if you call the Sabbath a delight and the LORD's holy day honorable, and if you honor it by not going your own way and not doing as you please or speaking idle words, then you will find your joy in the LORD, and I will cause you to ride on the heights of the land and to feast on the inheritance of your father Jacob." The mouth of the LORD has spoken.


Ephesians 5:1-2 Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

Colossians 3:12-15 Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.

In the dream, I own 3 houses. Two of them need work done to them, and we live in one of those needing work. The others seem to be rentals. All of a sudden, I am looking at what seems to be the front of the smallest house. The one that needs no work. There is no "front walkway" to the house, but the front of the house is plain looking, and there are rocks of varying sizes strewn all over. the next thing, both my wife and myself are inside the house. It seems to be quite expansive. We appear to be in a large room, and looking at the back wall is a open door, which has a stairway leading down into water. Clear, glasslike water, with the water having no movement, being able to see the bottom. Back in the large room, and next to the door is a a very large bay-type window. Looking out that window, I see a large expanse of water, the same body of water as outside of the door, with a very large monolithic rock jutting up into the sky. end of dream.
Hello, and thanx for your reply. I just happened onto this particular forum today, and your thread interested me.

lol. Yes, it is about Restoration;) And the dream is entirely biblical. The Lord took me out of a worrysome world.

(different sized rocks) are different sized trial and tribulations.

(no pathway) to home means I couldn't walk (work) to house He provided.

THe wife and I are great together (per se) like most couples in love. ;)

I have an open door to peaceful waters, that are deep and calm.

I have a large bay window to look upon my Rock of salvation. My Lord and Savior. All I have to do is look.

And my wife is a believer also, that is why she is in the dream.

Thanks again. You are very close in your interpretation. Good job!

Hi HumbleBee ,

This dream is clear to me , but I'm interested in what you can see in it .

I'm walking with Jesus , he is on my left , I am on his right .

We walk across a lawn , and up to the right side of a plain white church .

There is a side door there , and The Lord opens the door , and I look inside ;

And there from floor to ceiling is jammed all kinds of worthless junk , like the kind of stuff left over from years of rummage sales . It's horribly dusty , and full of cobwebs .

The Lord turns to me and looks me straight in the face , and solemnly says, " I want you to clean up my house " .

I am suddenly gripped with an almost overwhelming sense of the enormity of the task ; And I nervously begin to fidgit with something in my left front pants pocket .

Then as I simultaneously pull out what is in my pocket , wondering just what it might be , I say to the Lord , with my head slightly held down , " Lord , I don't even know where to start " .

Then at the very moment that I recognize that I've pulled out of my pocket , a wad of old gum / candy wrappers , and am holding them out a little in front of me in the palm of my hand -

The Lord firmly says to me , " start right there , with what you have in your hand ."

And that ends the dream . [ This was quite some time ago .]

But it's still vivid in my mind .

Nod dream message is clear! What more I see...wad of old gum (would be hard, flavorless, and inedible...gum is also manmade) so symbolizes how many churches been stuck on old religious traditions (spiritually worthless) and manmade doctrines completely void of Divine power (no spiritual nourishment to bring abundant life and liberty to hurting people!). Jesus said His food to do the will of Him who sent Him, meaning empty religion obviously departs from the Will of God! Since gum gets easily stuck on a shoe and a shoe has a heel this would represent that with vain indoctrination some churches have indeed lifted up their heel against Christ! These churches are steeped (from floor to ceiling!) in legalism...keeping only the letter of the law, but not the Spirit of law...having sold out for a secondhand type of Christianity...one that isn't at all personal...a superficial, cheap religion that costs them nothing (symbolized by the rummage sale), rather than experiencing the Person of Christ and marvelling in a meaningful, eternal relationship with Jesus that cost Him His Life!

Your dream would be a Divine Call to start where you are...impact people around you by the example that you live!

Matthew 21:12-14 Then Jesus went into the temple of God and drove out all those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves. And He said to them, "It is written, "My house shall be called a house of prayer,' but you have made it a "den of thieves."' Then the blind and the lame came to Him in the temple, and He healed them. Zowie on the results of God's House being cleansed! :clap:

John 13:18 I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with Me hath lifted up his heel against Me.

Colossians 2:8-10 Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power.

Appreciate your gift and effort HumbleBee .

The interpretation you gave fit rather well , with what I was shown .

You expanded the significance of some things , but didn't cover a few others .

But overall , it appears you done well !

Zowie on the results of God's House being cleansed!

Amen. and Amen . May The Lord see to it !

Ready for another one ?

wayfaring man,

In your clean house dream, what else would you like insight about? Thought the rest seemed obvious, tho glad to finish one job to your satisfaction, before starting another...:D...sooooooooooooo...from de top...

Jesus and you side by side...tiz good...you in step with your Lord! :clap:

Walking across a lawn...grass a symbol of new growth...spiritual renewal...(Psalm 23 God leading you to green pastures).

Plain white church...would seem to be a symbol of Christ, His holiness, simplicity, and sincerity. Some churches have lost sight of who Christ really is.

Looking into the side door of a church symbolizes being shown its heart...what influences and controls its actions.

You experiencing the enormity of the task would be a Divine call to pray the Lord of the harvest, asking for workers...you are part of Christ's Body, so plead for Him to wake up the other parts! (No action for a long time would allow much dust and cobwebs to accumulate.)

Anyting else?

Luke 10:2 Therefore said He unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that He would send forth labourers into his harvest.

Ephesians 4:11-16 It was He who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets, some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teachers, to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into Him who is the Head, that is, Christ. From Him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.

HumbleBee ,

Okay , now you touched on most all of it .

I took note of how we ( Jesus and I ) , didn't come through the front door .

Like one would normally , if attending , or visiting a church .

Also the fact that there was no one else around .

And that the place looked pretty good , until the inside was exposed .

Gum / candy wrappers = my own cleaning / purification .

Me on the Lord's right side , and the door on the right side = honorable place in God's eyes to be clearing out / cleaning up what others neglect to do .

That's about it .

Ready for another ?

He is our Peace .

Okay , your gonna like this one too !

I'm planting pine seedlings in SE Texas . I live out of and sleep in a van .

I work hard all day , and fall asleep easily at night .

The rest of the crew are pretty much non christain , except the two brothers who run the business , I'm good friends with them .

I go to sleep one night , and sometime in the middle of the night I have this vivid dream .

It starts out with me as a small boy , I'm practicing casting a new fishing pole out in the yard .

The line gets tangled in the sour apple tree . I try pulling and whipping the line , but it only gets worse .

A diminutive oriental man of considerable age , coaxes me over to the base of the tree . I look at the trunk and every foot or so , there are short boards nailed onto the tree , like as a ladder , they're nailed on crooked , with far too many nails , and a lot of them were bent over , the way young boys who build tree forts do .

The Chinese man ( he appeared Chinese ) , says to me encouragingly , " you can do it , you can do it ! Climb up there and get your line down . Ha Ha Ha Ha !

So I start climbing , I get up a ways and then have to go out on a limb to reach where the line is .

Well , I'm just about to reach it , when all of a sudden the whole tree starts spinning around , faster and faster , it goes so fast that my entire body is flying perpendicular to the ground , with only my hands making contact where they are grasping the limb , I was on .

Then it goes even faster and I can't hold on any longer , and I'm flung to the ground with tremedous force .

I don't have any sense of how much time has passed , it's like I was knocked out cold : but when I come to ; I'm now a young man ( late teen ) . The Chinese guy is gone and the tree is bigger now , but standing still .

Since my fishing line is still stuck in the tree ; I decide I'm going to go get a chainsaw and cut the tree down !

I seem to have trouble finding the saw , and all that goes with it , so I'm gone for some time . Finally , I've got it all together and walk back to where the tree was : but now there is no tree only a huge stump , like 2,000 yr old redwood kind of stump ( the tree was no where near that size ) , the stump appears to be about 20 feet across and 15 feet high ; there's a bunch of people mulling around the base of the stump , they remind me of the tree planters which I work in the field / forest with .

They seem to be partying and there's a pronounced air of excitement building as if something really intense is about to happen . Since , I'm a little bit leary of the small crowd , I stand on the outskirts of their gathering .

For some reason , because of the way they were acting and carrying on , and because I can barely make out some of what they are saying to each
other , I have the impression that a beautiful naked , or nearly naked woman with long red hair is going to appear on the top of the stump and do some kind of a performance .

Part of me is telling me to get out of there , and part of me is intrigued by what might happen next .

Well, before anything else happens , I hear a still soft voice say from behind me , " Now watch this !! "

Well all of a sudden , like a huge tornado drops down out of heaven and wrenches that huge stump and all of it's root system clean up out of the ground , way up in the air in a straight upward motion .

And immediately everyone including me slide into the enormous pit , which ripping the stump out of the ground created , and as soom as we're all in the bottom of the pit the stump is violently jammed back into the ground in the position it was before .

And I am packed down extremely tight under humungous pressure with wet clay and other bodies packed so tight around me there is absolutely no air and I can't even take the smallest of breaths .

At this point I lurch into an upright sitting position in the van where I was sleeping .

I'm in a state of shock , my eyes are wide open , I'm looking straight ahead , but it's dark .

Then I see myself walking like a zombie , down a long straight dirt road . there's a light way off in the distance , it slowly but steadily gets closer and closer , then I notice that it is really two lights , but I just keep plodding along as the lights come closer ; then they're suddenly very close , too close ! But I can't seem to move out of the way .

The car hits me at about 15 mph as the driver slams on the brakes . I fall on my face on the hood of the car and a woman screams in horror .

The man and his wife get out of the car , ( a station wagon , the man was driving ) they reach out to me asking , " Are you okay ?! Are you okay ?! "

I can't speak , or even frown or smile . they support me as I shuffle into the back seat - passenger side . they turn around and take me to their home . They're very nice to me . But I still can't talk . I go to church with them , and there I meet an elderly widow , that lives alone and has a spare room . I move in with her and do little odd jobs around the house and yard in exchange for room and board .

Then one day she sends me out to the mail box with a hand written letter , which the mailman will pick up later . I still haven't said a word and it seem like I 've been there for months , maybe a year or two . Well the widow has taken to calling me Johnny , cause no one could tell who I was , or where I was from ; and as I head out the front walk with her letter in my right hand , she calls to me to say something about remember to put the flag up , and then I turn toward her and say , ( what would be the first words I've said since I was found wandering down that dirt road ) , " Remember what Johnny says , either you send the Devil away , or you'll be hugging him next !! "

With that the dream fades , but I see , that after that , I would talk every once in a while , but only to say something of great seriousness ; yet I could sing beautifully in the church choir .

Now I'm still sitting erect in my van wide awake and still somewhat in shock .

I don't think I went back to sleep for a while either , this was about 20 years ago .

May the Lord Be Pleased To Bless .
