Dorthy sue, here's what oracle means.
In Classical Antiquity, an oracle was a person or agency considered to interface wise counsel or prophetic predictions or precognition of the future, inspired by the gods. As such it is a form of divination.
The word oracle comes from the Latin verb ōrāre "to speak" and properly refers to the priest or priestess uttering the prediction. In extended use, oracle may also refer to the site of the oracle, and to the oracular utterances themselves, called khrēsmoi (χρησμοί
in Greek.
Oracles were thought to be portals through which the gods spoke directly to people. In this sense they were different from seers (manteis, μάντεις who interpreted signs sent by the gods through bird signs, animal entrails, and other various methods.[1]
So...the star was the oracle of God? It set itself up on a plaque thing? Could this be referring to a false prophet of God coming "out of the box" and setting itself up on an alter to be a false prophet?

This dream is telling you to watch Israel, because events happening there herald the end of the age and the coming of the Lord. This is a scriptural message.

I know He will tell you what it means. He doesn't show us a thing and then leave us to our own imaginations.
What bothers me is that the material is bronze, and in the bible this is an inferior metal (as opposed to gold or silver), and the other thing is that it is a Jewish symbol and not a Christian one. This could indicate "Old Testament", as opposed to New.... or as Clay Vessel said, it could apply to Israel, if this fits with something you have been praying about.
I do like where Glorify said it comes "out of the box". It feels right. God doesn't like us to "box in" (limit) Him and what He can do. He does bringsthings up and out and sets them before us....good or bad....so that we can see and understand more clearly.
Where you said "the Holy Ghost said an oracle of God " was this a exact quote "an oracle of God"? Was this a disc-like wall hanging type object, or was it a medallion that one wears around the neck?

In this case, the meaning of the word "oracle" would be, according to dictionary.com: a divine communication or revelation. Israel is boxed in on all sides by enemies. It is my belief that they will soon "break out of the box" and with God's help, stop Iran. We'll see.
I think the bronze aspect in interesting, too, Humblewatchman. What do you see?

Sometimes we just cant "figure it out" with our own minds. We just have to wait intently and pray on the Holy Spirit to tell us what it means. When He does, please let us know, DorothySue!

That would be great, as it is interesting to us too.
Does this vison/dream relate to anything that you have been praying or thinking about lately, or is it just "out of the blue" unrelated to your waking life? Also, did you search on google images to see if you could find anything that looked like it? I didn't find much until I typed; "medallion" of star of david , bronze
Origins of the Star of David
The origins of the Star of David are unclear. We do know that the symbol hasn't always been associated exclusively with Judaism, but was used by Christians and Muslims at various points in history. Sometimes it was even associated with King Solomon instead of King David.
The Star of David is not mentioned in rabbinic literature until the middle ages. It was during the latter part of this era that Kabbalists (Jewish mystics) began to associate the symbol with deeper spiritual meaning. The Star of David was eventually cemented as a Jewish symbol when it became a favorite architectural decoration on Jewish buildings and then during World War II, when Hitler forced Jews to wear a yellow Star of David as a "badge of shame." (Jews were also forced to wear identifying badges during the Middle ages, by the way, though not always a Star of David.)
In the past seventy-five years Jews have reclaimed the symbol, beginning with Zionists who gave the star national significance during the founding of Israel. Today the flag of Israel is a white banner with two horizontal blue lines that have a blue Star of David in the center.
Symbolic Meanings
There are many ideas about the symbolic meaning of the Star of David. Some Kabbalists thought that the six points represented God's absolute rule over the universe in all six directions: north, south, east, west, up and down. They also believed that the triangles represented humanity’s dual nature – good and evil – and that the star could be used as protection against evil spirits.
The structure of the star, with two overlapping triangles, has also been thought to represent the relationship between God and the Jewish people. The star that points up symbolizes God and the star that points down represents us here on earth. Yet others have noticed that there are twelve sides on the triangle, perhaps representing the Twelve Tribes.
The symbol’s association with King David comes mostly from Jewish legend. For instance, there is a midrash which says that when David was a teen he fought the enemy King Nimrod. David's shield was composed of two interlocking triangles attached to the back of a round shield and at one point the battle became so intense that that the two triangles were fused together. David won the battle and the two triangles were henceforth known as the Shield of David. This story, of course, is just one of many!

I don't know if this had anything to do with the star or box but the day after I saw the star and box The Lord spoke two words to me divination and Chaldeans and I do know that there are a few in my church who are thought to have a spirit of divination

info copied and pasted from Jewish site;
In order to secure the territory of Judah, Nebuchadnezzar brought Jehoiachin and Zedekiah, the two kings of Judah (in succession) and held them in Babylon. In keeping with Assyrian practice, the "New Babylonians," or Chaldeans forced a large part of the Jewish population to relocate. Numbering possibly up to 10,000, these Jewish deportees were largely upper class people and craftspeople; this deportation marks the beginning of the exile in Jewish history.
Are there people leaving or being forced out of the church? It seems to be related...as both applies to the Jewish people, or people of God and divination (one of the definitions of oracle

Those practicing divination have been at your church for about a year? What does the pastor think?
