How do you know if your dream is really from God?

[MA2444]

No, but I will look at your documented miracles. Thank you

You got it Brother.

I'll come back and post more in this post as I find them on youtube.

 

[MA2444]

I like personal testimonies. I think they carry much weight. These are real people, not some fancy Pastor which wants your money, they aint selling CD's or asking for donations or anything. It seems to me that God's miracles are ramping up in these last days. He has compassion for us and by healings signs He wins people over. Some testimonies are huge! And they are nobody people. So they have no reason to deceive.

Here's another one.

If he doesn't believe the OT then no wonder he don't understand the NT.

I don't think that is fair to say myself.

Much love!

I will give you something to ruminate on .

I had dream and this dream was different than any dream I could remember having before and I will describe it to you .

In the dream I am standing in doorway looking in a room and I have a unseen narrator tell me this is a hospital room . I look the room over and see a regular hospital bed with the usual rails , I see the usual roll around table/tray for use while in bed , I see a chair next to the bed and that is it . I notice there are not any medical hookups on the wall at all , nothing for oxygen , no blood pressure cuff just none of of the normal stuff , the wall was just a blank wall behind the head of the bed . After seeing the blank wall I say this is not a hospital room but the narrator said yes it is . I say oh well the is only a dream anyway .( This is the first dream I ever remember being aware I was in a dream .)

Now in the dream I am standing between the bed and the outside window looking out the window , the window is maybe 4X8 and a single pane , never seen a window like this in a hospital before . As I look out the window it is the most exquisite detail and color , vivid , bright and sunny and it is if I am really there and not just a dream , so real it seems . I can tell I am more than a few stories up from the ground . Is see the city streets and parking lot below and in the distance city buildings and further I see a mountain . I am told by the narrator there will be a flood there at the hospital . I say but what effect would that be on me ? This floor is way off the ground ! The narrator said there will be a flood . I say oh whatever this is just a dream .

There are more elements to the dream but I am not sharing today .

I tell my wife of the dream the next day because of the view out the window in the dream being so real and then in few days I never give the dream another thought .

About six moths later I find myself in a very unexpected situation , but God knew it was coming for me . Things involving the supernatural things of God were manifesting in my life after I had said a prayer and over the course of a few days an implosion of sorts occurred and my well being and sanity was brought into question . So I was admitted to a hospital to be observed and checked on much to my displeasure because the things of God were happening now in my life ! Why would I be confined to the hospital now ! I was admitted and it was dark when I wheeled into my hospital room and I was most dejected and thought why God am I in the hospital .

The next morning I woke up and got out of bed and stood to look out my window in my hospital . OH MY it is the hospital window view from my dream I am in the hospital room and it is just as I saw in the dream ! ! I cried , I laughed , I prayed and thanked God because I then knew without a doubt God had shared my future with me !

"but God knew it was coming for me" But The Lord has not given you why it was coming for you. Our enemy sometimes uses a flood like the woman clothed by the sun.

Did a flood ever come? I wonder what that meant?

 

[talons]

"but God knew it was coming for me" But The Lord has not given you why it was coming for you.

Before everything happened to me I said a payer , " Lord , give me something to do for the Kingdom of God ." Little did I know I was now entering the battle field .

Our enemy sometimes uses a flood like the woman clothed by the sun.

Flood in the dream is told about below .

Did a flood ever come? I wonder what that meant?

Well I wondered too after many day in the hospital and my release day was coming up the very next day . That afternoon before I was released the next day there was thunderstorm and then a downpour of rain . At a point were two sections of building were joined together a leak in the roofing occurred and maybe 50 feet from my room the ceiling tiles and insulation got soaked with water and came crashing down into the hallway and water too . After that happened I understood a flood on the seventh floor .

And the mountain, have you cast it into the sea?

 

[talons]

I actually reside on a mountain no need to cast it into the sea .

 

[ThePuffyBlob]

That's an interesting question. My first reaction is to say that if God were communicating with you, I'd expect you would know that. So I wonder whether it's just a dream after all.

I've had dreams repeat, though only a handful of times per dream.

Much love!

The repetitive dream I have is from when I was under 10 years old and continued into my mid-20s. It only stopped when I began to reflect on it. There is evidence that it was a dream from my childhood because of the structure in the dream, which no longer exists, and I actually forgot that such a structure was there until I pondered the dream over and over. The dream has biblical elements; there are scenes in the Bible that I only realized when I finally read the Bible. When I reflect on the dream, its message seems to be about my surroundings, suggesting that they are blind while I am the only one who sees— or so I thought. However, when I share this with them, they doubt it because it challenges their beliefs and their religion. @Angelina

 

[ThePuffyBlob]

We all know that we can remember a dream when we dream it, but a few seconds after waking up, we often forget what the dream was about.

 

[ThePuffyBlob]

@marks
You should know that I do not believe in the Bible before. However, when I began reading it in my mid-20s, starting with the Book of Revelation, I ended up having nightmares afterward. I'm not sure, but it’s probably because my older cousin introduced me to Christianity, which is why I started reading the Bible and reflecting on that repetitive dream.

So it was like a premonition type of dream. That's cool, who don't like being warned before it happens?! AT least you knew what was going on as it happened!

I prayed to the Lord to give me something to do for the Kingdom of God, I want to help, ...and Lord can you make it something I can do from my easy chair? I had that accident and got hurt so I really cant go door to door, and I had to buy an old unreliable truck since I wrecked my new one...and it wasn't 10 minutes before the phone rang!
Hey Ed how ya been? (An old friend I hadn't seen in two years!)
Good.
Mind if I stop by and visit and ask you a few questions about God?
Sure come on over! And I knew that God answered my prayer just that fast!

I went upstairs to make a pot of coffee, and I only had enough left for 1/2 pot, (yikes). That bites I like to be able to serve a guy a cup of coffee when he visits my house! For a minute I thought about praying for help from God like always, lol! But I remembered the scripture that says don't worry about what you will eat or drink, the Lord knows your needs before you ask Him...So I didn't pray that prayer, no need to right?

By the time my friend arrived at my house I had just poured the very last cup (it was time to put a pot on if I had some coffee!) and my friend knocked at the door. I opened it and he came in and handed me a bag of Hawaiian coffee beans, some gourmet stuff and says here I aint seen you in awhile I brought you a gift, so I made coffee for us! It was good coffee, not my cheap Folgers (which aint cheap now!).

But my friend did not know that I was out of coffee, I did not tell him that. I didnt know I was out until after we hung up! So what happened there? I prayed and asked God if I can do something for Him and His Kingdom. He sends someone right over. I Did Not Pray for more Coffee. So why did I get coffee? Because it was an act of faith to stand on the scripture of God rather than pray like the scripture says. So that was standing in faith in His word. Faith. That's a miracle if you ask me. The Creator of the Universe delivered Coffee to my front door! It was a very very very small thing. I can see it now, I prayed to God if I can help out even from my easy chair, and God sits up, what? Edward asked to help? He will need coffee for His guest! I'll have his friend take some to him!

Brothers & Sisters, that's how God rolls. It's like He answered two prayers at once for me, one that I made and one that I didnt, lol!

 

[MA2444]

One time I prayed for God to teach me Discernment, and He said, to practice discernment practice look into people and trying to see Him in them, for He is in all...

I'm still chewing on that one!

Another time I prayed and asked the Lord to teach me how to Love others the same way that He loves me...And it was only a day or two until I had the most obnoxious man in the neighborhood in my living room, geez did that guy try my patience! That wasnt a nice season for me. I understood the Lord's point, here practice on this guy! It's not always easy to love people that are obnoxious.

 

[KUWN]

You got it Brother.

I'll come back and post more in this post as I find them on youtube.

I decided to see if Muslims have the same things happen to them. The first two I came across on the Internet are below:

Yassine Jaber, A Sunni Muslim Healed Through the Intercession of Saint Sharbel​

My lord has always been healing me my whole life.
Allah swt healed Someone in my family that had cancer, Alhamdulillah.. And Allah swt healed Ayoub A.S
May Allah swt grant you healing, Ameen

You can look them up. I have a missionary friend in Chad Africa who has seen miracles by witch doctors.

Many believers and unbelievers have had their cancers go into complete remission.

I say this because you have not paid attention to what I have said. I have said that God still performs miracles, but that nobody has the gift of healing or gift of miracles. these videos you shared are not what I call verifiable miracles in the sense of what miracles Jesus and the Apostles performed. Jesus healed a withered hand in front of skeptics. This is the kind of verifiable miracles that I am referring to.

If Jesus is healing Christians, who is healing the Muslims who are healed. Who is healing unbelievers like my neighbor. What we see today is not the signs, miracles, healings, etc of the Christ/Apostolic Ages of the first century.

If this is what you are referring to when you say God is healing today, I am afraid I am not impressed. Remember, I have stated that God still performs miracles today.

Sorry, this thread has been moving fast and I stayed up too late night before last and was groggy most the day yesterday, lol. I hope I didnt miss responding to anybody.

The Lord talked about healing and stuff before I had asked him something about it but I forget exactly what it was. And He said all that is needed for a healing is one Believer and one patient.

If you want to see big time miracles like the raising of the dead and limbs growing back out that were previously amputated and stuff like that, then you need to go to Africa. Belief is stronger in Africa than in the US because their school system isnt set up to indoctrinate the people into unbelief. The Africans read the bible and say, oh it says ask it and you shall receive, so we'll raise your baby back to life mamm. And just do it. They dont their not supposed to believe what the word of God says, lol!

Andrew Wommack in Woodland Park CO, testified that his son was raised from the dead after he was dead for, four hours?

So anyway, I thought these medical healings would bring certain healings into a documented status because hospitals keep records. I had the Lord heal me from a dislocated hip joint. I had a seizure while at the top of a 10 ft ladder onto a basement concrete floor and dislocated my hip. I was working with my son on that jobsite so he got me home. I came to on the way home, I dont even remember being helped to hobble up the basement steps! My son was taking me to the emergency room I think and I told him to take me home because I didnt have health insurance. So I went home and laid in bed with a dislocated hip for two weeks! The bath room was right across the hall and I did me some hobbling back and forth. It was very sore and I could bone stink up in my leg flesh where it should be flat! It was seriously dislocated. One particular night I prayed before sleeping would the Lord just heal me as I sleep? Please! And then I went to sleep. I got woke up in the middle of the night because of a burning sensation in my hip, and it was getting hotter. And it got so hot that I actually screamed out a curse word! But then suddenly the heat went away and so I went back to sleep. In the morning I was thinking about what happened during the night to make my leg catch fire?!

Then I remembered hearing healing testimonies and many people report feeling a heat sensation when healed! And I did pray and ask, so...I got out of bed and dropped my jammies to have a look. The bone was was visibly out of joint under my skin wasnt visible anymore, it was flat! So why am I still in pain? Oh that's right, when a dislocated joint is reset it will be sore for a couple days! So in two or three days I should have my confirmation. Either the soreness goes away or it dont. It went away, that was the Lord that reset my hip for me. I felt like an idiot for not praying about it sooner! But you know new how Christians are dum dums, right? lol


I have a bunch of hardware i my back from when I rolled my truck and busted myself up too and I have a record of it onn a CD. I can pop it in the computer and look at the xray picture of the hardware...and the way I figure it is I better hang onto that CD because if the Lord would ever heal my back for me then it will be documented!

But an interesting point would be that...Man can document nothing for an individual Believer. The Lord documents Himself to the Believer in different was but always in a personal spiritual way inside of the Believer. And you know. You just know and know that you know what you know. It's like an intuition or something which comes to you. This must be the Holy Spirit bearing witness to our spirit and the soulish mind and body pick up on it. We can't hear the conversation but feel it like an intuition which is a function of our spirit. Our soul is mind/will/emotions and our spirit is Fellowship/Conscience/Intuition. And it affects youe thought because it affect your heart because both are connected. You see it is this intimacy with the Holy Spirit than makes the connection to the Lord for us, with us. Another name for that is, relationship. And this relationship with the Lord spiritually, either is pursued by the believer or ignored and neglected. Those who pursue a relationship with the Lord get to be better friends with Him.

You got two guys.
Do you have a relationship with God and read His word and pray?
I sure do, I go to church every week and we looked up two scriptures this week and they was good, and I usually pray for at least 5 minutes a day before work...

And the other guy spends an hour each every day of the week reading the word, and learned to dont pray for 5 minutes and ask God questions and then Amen and get up and walk out, Lord please come with me to work and be beside me! And we can talk all day!

Who is going to have a better relationship with the Lord? The guy who never leaves his side! And at some point in the relationship with our friend which sticks closer than a Brother, we come under His full protection. Now seeing as how many christians experience tragedy in their lives I have to wonder...at what point does the protection kick in? It takes effort on our part first to have a good enough relationship with the Lord and that means the time of our presence with Him. You can come into the presence of the Lord two ways, either by Praying or by reading His word. But if one spends each day with the Lord and doesnt forget He is there and so walk out of His presence !) pretty soon it becomes a truth for you that...A Thousand will die to the side of you and 10,000 on your right hand but it will not come near you...!!! No Plague shall come near thy dwelling.

When a Believers relationship with the Lord becomes such as this, then, one gets personal documentation within Him that blows away medical documentation!
What does that dream anyway? Ask the Lord! He'll tell you. If you are close enough to Him to be able to hear His voice speaking.

@marks Now that I think about it, this is a part of my dream. The sky is black, the moon is white, but there's fire in the sky. While everyone is relaxing and having fun, there is blood and smoke as the fire makes contact with the land.

Joel 2:28-31 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit. And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.

 

[MA2444]

Here this man has a good testimony and is talking about the same thing I was, hearing the still small voice of the Lord. It is for everyone!

 

[1stCenturyLady]

Ask Him!!!



My daughter, because she knows me and the Lord, got me a baseball style cap with the words "How do I know God is real? I asked Him".

Christians are supposed to be His sheep and His sheep hear His voice. So if we have a question, we ask Him, right???

So what church should you go to? Ask Him!

What should we get from the store? Ask Him!

What plans should you have for today? Ask Him!

So when you get a dream, what do you do? Ask Him, right?

Both Nebuchadnezzar and Daniel got a dream, but only Daniel knew the meaning - why?

Because only Daniel believed in God, that He was there for be asked and heard from!

If you indeed believe in an omni-present, all-knowing, all-powerful, loving God, then you are gong to ask Him about the things in your life!!

Which is why His sheep hear His voice!!

The Father made the Lord our God, Jesus Christ, the KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS over all things! And His Father gave Him all things, which include the very words of God!! Was this not explained at the churches we are going to?! It is explained in the Bible!

Ps 2: 6,7 “But as for Me, I have installed My King
Upon Zion, My holy mountain.”
“I will surely tell of the decree of the LORD:
He said to Me, ‘You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You.

Jn 16:13-15 “But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come.
“He will glorify Me, for He will take of Mine and will disclose it to you.
“All things that the Father has are Mine; therefore I said that He takes of Mine and will disclose it to you.

And the Father gave us [Jesus Christ the KING OF KINGS AND LORD OR LORD, who is the Word of God because He has the words of His Father) to us!!!!!!!

Jn 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.

So you can ask Him, hear from Him, get to know Him personally - but will you believe in Him????

I don't mean to insult 'marks', who wrote the OP - but what are we preaching in our Christian churches, that we (Christians as a group) don't fully understand the Jesus Christ is there with His Holy Spirit to answer our questions in life???

Let me tell you, the answer to all the questions in our life is, "Ask Him and listen!" Have we not read:

Prov 2:6 For the LORD gives wisdom;
From His mouth come knowledge and understanding.

Yeah - there maybe and are things that we a just not capable with our minds to understand or it is not yet meant for us to understand, but He will let you know about that too.

Dan 12:9 He said, “Go your way, Daniel, for these words are concealed and sealed up until the end time.

Still Daniel asked Him, which is what we believers are supposed to do!

Dan 12:8 As for me, I heard but could not understand; so I said, “My lord, what will be the outcome of these events?”

So we read about Daniel, and others, asking the Lord and getting answers, but we ask things of other men instead of Him.

Jn 5:44 “How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another, and you do not seek the glory that is from the one and only God?

I am not saying we should not talk to and fellowship with each other, but are we going to be like king Nebuchadnezzar who sought other men about our dreams and what they mean and who they are from, or are we going to be like Daniel who sought the Lord and listened to Him??

Choose now - how are you going to live your life? Is if by faith in Jesus Christ of not?

Great post. Knowing that God speaks to those who will listen, I always have my mind on Him to see what He'll say next!

 

[JohnDB]

Well,
We can ALWAYS go to scriptures to find the answers we want in life. ESPECIALLY ones referring to God. After all He wrote it using men to hold the pen. (No women though....sorry girls)

Let's look at EVERY dream and dreamer in scriptures. From Pilate's wife to Joseph....even Macedonian people.

In EVERY instance....everyone was dwelling in sin. Joseph by living with his parents and not getting a straight story about God. Joseph's jailhouse buddies. Jacob on his way out of town trying to escape Esau's wrath. (Stairway to Heaven) Pharaoh....
Nebacadnezzar. Several instances in Judges and Kings....
Nothing changed about dreams in the New Testament. Even Peter had a dream. And it sucked to be him when he had it.

Dreams do NOT foretell good news....ever!
Only famine, starvation, wars, pestilence and etc. Why people want them is beyond me.

Last thing in the world I would want is a dream. I might need one one day but that doesn't mean I relish having one.

 

[ChristinaL]

What if you repeatedly dream about something from the Bible over the years, but you keep ignoring it because you don't recognize its significance and not a believer either. I ask this because that’s what happened to me. Would you not think that the dream could be from God?

Yes.
