Well there was one I had about a year ago maybe less actually and I had no idea what it meant but a person on cc who I wish I could remember what it was described what it meant to me and suddenly the entire dream just clicked.
In this dream I was with my family when suddenly a king appeared to me out of nowhere and he told me I was royalty and was giving me a choice to either stay with my family or go live with him in his kingdom. I had to think for a minute I remember saying to myself I love my family but I have never known what it's like to be royalty and so even though I loved my family I said I would go with him. the second I did we suddenly shot up in a split second and went so high that we entered another dimension entirely like no matter fast or far anyone ever went in the upward direction they could never hope to reach that place.

In this realm I was royalty I even could feel this feeling inside me of what being royalty is like it's not a feeling I can explain but it was strong in this kingdom I was rich beyond my wildest dreams but I looked down at earth and saw that the earth had become extremely poor and knowing how rich I was wanted to give the earth my riches and in abundance. that was when the dream ended and I posted here on cc and a cc member told me it was a rapture dream.

It made sense the king that suddenly appeared was Jesus the shooting up in a split second must have been the rapture itself and the kingdom in which I was royalty must have been heaven. but the riches at first didn't make sense and neither did the earth being poor but then I thought about it what are the treasures that my heart has so exhaustively sought after? I desire a kind of love and closeness with God that has never been had before one that no one not even the apostles knew could go that deep and I want to search that heart of his without limits and continually sink into the ocean that is his heart I want all of him not some of him not most of him I want all of him and I don't care what the cost is.

But my reason for receiving such treasures is not for myself, I have even told God that I will accept however he plans it but if I could have it my way I would ask that I can go home and be with him for a time and receive the treasures my heart has hungered for without limit and in the deepest depth possible but after a time of being with him I would ask that he send me back in the tribulation to share and give these riches in abundance and without limits because it will be a time of utter blood and darkness and a time when his light and love his heart will be needed the most more than any other time in history.

I think the part where I was rich and I saw the earth was poor might very well have confirmed my request to him but I am not entirely sure
This is definitely a very vivid and interesting dream, if that word is even accurate. I'm not sure about returning during the tribulation, though, as I don't see anywhere in the Bible it mentions that being possible. If anything, the Tribulation is a time when God's presence on earth seems greatly absent and multitudes are led astray by the Beast. I'm not saying that what you hope for couldn't happen, but as it is extra-Biblical I would be extremely cautious about convincing yourself this is what will happen.

Honestly, when I read your dream, the conclusion I would have come to is that God allowed you to to have a taste of Heaven and your royal inheritance there in order to give you compassion for those on earth who currently are lost and do not have that inheritance. He wants you to share the love He's given you with the currently messed up world.

I understand your wanting to help those during the Tribulation, but if you read Scripture most of those people are suffering because they chose to abandon God and follow Satan. I'm sure there will be "innocent" victims, but the majority of them don't sound like victims... On the other hand, perhaps you will be one of the two prophets that end up being killed in Jerusalem and then come back to life after people from every tribe and language celebrate your death for three days. Not sure that would be my personal goal, but... :)

I thought the prophets that would come back would be like Moses and Elijah? Or one of the two that didn't experience death. That would kinda make sense. And it kinda makes sense that if you were in the rapture, you'd be sad/concerned for the people of earth that are still there during the tribulation. I'd be sad too.

Personally I always wonder, ok is this dream from God or is this just something that I really want/think about all the time? I don't know totally.
