Wheat Field Dream

[Nessuno]

Just was curious if anyone else has this very simple dream ?

Dream 1: Guy standing in a huge, possibly endless field of wheat. Hill rolling in the background also had wheat on it. Hands lowered to around 40 degrees from striaght down with palms facing me. Though wheat was higher than hands so could not see them but arm position or angle would indicate facing me.

- That’s all I remember, well, that’s all I recalled right after I woke up as well. After I woke up, I had the realization that it was Christ standing in the field. Since the big question that was on my mind (since I have not yet achieved the first goal that has been set upon me), is “What do you want me to do?” Up till yesterday or day before have been content with Farmer regarding this dream. And I still think potatoe is a more logical choice for getting carbohydrates in mass quantity to sustain life, or even corn for that matter. But have ended up with “Alright, ya want me to do wheat, I’ll do wheat.” And have done reasearch regarding farming since then. Have even learned how to make Lime to balance the Ph and have actually gone thru most of the process myself already. Alternative means of fertilization, and approximated acreage per person, though would need to recalculate that because had originally based it on corn. Apparantly I’m still fighting logic and haven’t completely submitted to this wheat thing. Bah, He knows I can’t seem to find the right way for lasting happiness by following my own insticts, so he wants wheat, guess I’m doing wheat. Although, wheat does make some darn fine bread, so it may just be worth it. Why do I still need to find logic behind it.. He wants wheat, wheat it is. End of story.

Think about whether it might have been switchgrass.

The big biofuel boost is going to raise the price of corn so dramatically, that biodiesel companies will need to include switchgrass and other materials that we are less dependent on for food. (Wheat byproducts, possibly?)

Usually when Christians dream of wheat fields, it's about
revival. But it seems you have some very specific instructions, especially considering the hand positions... whatever that means.

Notice how the crop production in South America and other locations lately, changes what the farmers need to grow here. God knows the plans of men. Keep praying, and stay open to His wisdom.

Nessuno,
Seeing that you've been researching this for a while, consider that
the climate for the next few years might be safer for wheat than potatoes or corn. Floods... winds... heat... whatever. Sometimes the best logic is not enough.

Corn is going to be erratic in the next few years... a huge demand and price increas in the next 1-3+ years, then probably a sudden drop when companies find replacements.

I ran across something else on farming dreams today -- not looking for it. A farmer can represent work ethic, and a farm can represent abundance (due to the work ethic). Maybe it relates more to recognition of your efforts, and assurance of provision.

 

[Nessuno]

The farmer and the work ethic makes a ton of sense to me. Although I have enjoyed the thought of being a farmer with a smaller plot of land for excactly that reason. It's good honest work. Provides food for yourself and extra can go to those who need.
Assurance of provision, that is definately a possibility.
OOO, if you've even gone hungry than you know that feeling. But then why not corn. I'm not even sure if I've ever even seen a wheat field. Corn and soy definately. Although, going thru the OT again recently or currently, it does seem to say "just trust in the L-rd and He'll provide for you" which is where my current thoughts are. If He feeds me, He feeds me. If not, well, it's His will that's being done either way and that's fine with me too. hehehe, like if it wasn't, I'd be able to actually do anything about it. The realization of a total trust in the L-rd is well, new to me. I guess it must have happened sometime within the last couple weeks and reallly didn't notice it till now. Hrm.. I guess I also feel that I need to trust Him completely.
The dream was sooo long ago, and at a time when I wasn't thinking abou tthe L-rd as much as I should have been.
Although, something that I realized just yesterday when writing some stuff down, the L-rd does seem to answer my questions before I ask them. It usually get's me confused and indeed, I was confused.
Revival is a definate possibility too. A couple months after it, I got one of those DVD ones that you read along with. 5 months later and i'm going thru it again, but more by sections that I had notes that I should go back and study more depth on. Oh my, i'm babbling big time.. hahaha...
Biofuel, who knows... i'm pretty green but not extremely green. Car get's around 32mpg, rear wheel drive that handles like poop in snow.. but that 32mpg has me stuck to it. I do heat with wood and split by hand, but that's more economical motivated than green. The wood, for the most part I get from after a lumber company takes the main log, leaves the tops. I take the tops and whatever the electrical company leaves on the side of the road every spring. Usually it's the tops though, road side stuff dissappears very quickly.

Had thoughts regarding that "revival" thing because I have had many many thoughts regarding like missionary work, although I am no preacher. Thought about using the works of some guy Edwards that some guy used to quote, but I'm just not the preachy type. Tzedakah i've found to be very pleasant on the mind. Anyways, I've taken myself down a road of thought that led me to the realization that indeed I do have a fear that isn't yet conquered. I had just posted in the prior msg that I had not.
I must retract that as of now, but I will continue to work on it.

 

[Ajax 777]

Nessuno....read about the Wheat and Tares.

Maybe this dream was to simply let you know about the upcoming judgment, and the harvests of both. Perhaps it has nothing to do at all with what you plant when you are awake, for all foods are fit to be eaten. I assure you, God WILL reap the wheat that He wants, for He is able to make it grow and increase, and although the workers are few, there IS still a harvest to help bring in...perhaps this dream, as it showed the Lord all alone in the wheat field, is an appeal to you to help Him bring in the harvest? Pray about it, and ask Him if it means this, and ask Him to show you what else to do.

He may be standing at your door and knocking right now, Nessuno. He may be calling you to serve Him...you should try to find out.

Oh, and this is just my 2 cents. I am not saying it is interpretation from the Lord. You should get that from Him ONLY.

Sure, that's another possibility to ponder.

Remember how the hands were positioned in the dream. It sounds as though they were extended in a way to show you that all this is possible, or yours, due to your intentions and His involvement in your plans (standing in your field).

That might mean efforts in general, not just crops. He might have been saying that He sees your intentions, and there has been a lot growing (that you haven't noticed)due to you.

Hearing more of the picture, I think it's more about provision than specifically wheat-- that He's going to take care of you. Notice He is standing in your field -- your world, your work and efforts.

Assurance of provision, that is definately a possibility.
OOO, if you've even gone hungry than you know that feeling. But then why not corn. I'm not even sure if I've ever even seen a wheat field. Corn and soy definately.
Are you just starting to get into farming? It was hard to tell from the first post. If you haven't seen wheat fields, maybe the soil in your area isn't suited to wheat? Be careful of jumping into a major decision based on a dream. Ask God to show more confirmations of what you need to do, and more clarity on the dream.

Most Christians have times when they don't hear and times when they do. If you're not getting a clear direction, make the wisest choices and keep doing the research. He will still walk beside you.

If anyone were to tell me this dream without discussion of farming, I would think it was God showing them that blessing and opportunity stand before them. It takes some work to harvest, and a choice, but it sounds like abundance is there when you become more active in the process. (Whatever one that is!)
Biofuel, who knows... i'm pretty green but not extremely green.
I mentioned fuel that because of incentives that are encouraging ethanol plants to spring up all over. These plants have a huge demand for corn, sometimes more than the area can support, and plants are willing to pay higher prices than the food companies. The next couple years will be great for certain corn farmers, and not so great for Agway and General Mills and Taco Bell.

After I wrote that, someone mentioned to me that corn just went up Friday to $4/bushel... it was below $2 in 2005. (Commodity prices.)
The dream could also mean that God is encouraging you to start farming while the corn prices are high -- but only you can get God's clear answer for you.

The prices will impact all of us in the grocery stores -- so much is made with corn. Probably some food producers will switch their ingredients to wheat. (Flour tacos vs. corn)

It could be a very important time to start farming -- God foreseeing what it will take to feed a country when much of the grain base is taken out of the food market.

Car get's around 32mpg, That's great! rear wheel drive that handles like poop in snow.. but that 32mpg has me stuck to it. I do heat with wood and split by hand, but that's more economical motivated than green. The wood, for the most part I get from after a lumber company takes the main log, leaves the tops. I take the tops and whatever the electrical company leaves on the side of the road every spring. Wow! Free heat!!! (With work attached.)
Usually it's the tops though, road side stuff dissappears very quickly.

The dream was given to you, and intended for you, so even though we're giving ideas of what it might mean, you were the one intended to know. Look at how you felt during the dream about each symbolism.

He's in my field, or I'm in his. Or I have thought about this much, I'm not sure what I originally thought.

Are you just starting to get into farming? It was hard to

The only reason I looked into farming at all was this dream. I tend to be literal at first.

Ajaxx also had the Harvest and work thing. It seems when I talk with the L-rd, he's always telling me to do something. Ofcourse, i'm usually asking, "what do you want me to do?" or "Can help me do one more wheellbarrel of wood?" .. that response was interesting. End up doing 4 times the amount that I'd normally do. So be careful what you ask for. He does force ya to take breaks too, which is very nice of Him.
Matter of fact, I now enjoy splittin just cause I get to chat with him.

Recent prayer about it has me coming to the conclusion that it's a kick to butt to get focused on the other chore. The first one... seems to always get me back to that. If I get that done, he's going to allow me to work in fields.

Just thought I add a question, "You checking dreams for market forcasts?" Futures... I got no clue on market stuff.

Now I get it. You sounded so serious at first, as if you were changing which crops you plant. It's a terribly expensive investment, so don't jump in unless you're sure. Farming or not, it still seemed related to provision and compensation.

Oh! I'm glad the dream is starting to come together.

Heh heh heh, is that insider trading? No, I just have friends who talk futures. I don't like to trade. (If I were trading from dreams, I would invest in tidal wave insurance.)

Shoudl have been "or have I thought about this too much. Sorta like if you say a word over and over and over. In highschool, a friend of mine made me do this experiment with him. I picked a word. We said it each 100 times. The word that I picked, no matter how I said it, quit making sense and didn't sound right no matter how I said it.

Now I get it. You sounded so serious at first, as if you were changing which crops you plant. It's a terribly expensive investment, so don't jump in unless you're sure. Farming or not, it still seemed related to provision and compensation.

Well, actually for a long time I was, I just couldn't figure otu how to get it started. Figured in the mean time look for efficient means, estimated crop yield.. money saving techniques (providing that your using the food for personal consumption.. nevermind.. let's not go there)

(Yeah, it took me a while to figure out what those regular obstacles were.)

ok, now that I got someone who admits to "chatting with the L-rd" I am curious if your experience is anything like.. well, i'll just give example.
When I chopped wood (since it's already been admitted to), I asked the L-rd to help me do another wheelbarrel. I don't split wood often, the back muscles take some time to get up to all the bending over, standing it up or placing a log on another so it splits on one hit. Lots of bending and picking up. Anyways, I ask him and it just sorta becomes clear in my head, "Im going to do more than just that one I asked for" and sure enough, all my swings dead on balls accurate, everything splitting perfectly. Even the ones that well, curvy with knots.. eeek. Even those were going like butter. I started really getting into it cause I was making a serious dent in a huge pile that I didn't think i'd get to till spring. Then I hear, or feel, or becomes clear in my head, "this is the last wheelbarrel". I go, "One more, this is good stuff."... nope. All my hits missed the mark. Then after a mishit that hit the handle pretty good, I stopped. I think I said, "Alright L-rd, got the picture." outloud cause I remember looking around like someone might have heard me. So now I'm really curious, is this just the way it works or am I just weird. That's the wood scenario, but seems ya can do it with just about anything. Like, patience... that's something worth asking for IMO. I'm like the broke doctor if I don't ask for it.

Looked for your dream about tidal waves adn didn't see it posted. Seen this history channel or discovery show about an island off the northeast coast of africa that could end up making a big splash. Hopefully your dream didn't include a large part of an island sliding into the big pond.
