Oh something I forgot to mention which I think is common
in dreams from God.

Several times I have had the same dream 3 times in the same week, or a series of
dreams following on from each other. When that happens you know God has something
important to say, its kind of like verily, verily, verily!

I will give an example.


I had a dream that I was looking at a blue print of a railway tunnel drawn out
on a piece of paper.

I woke up then I had a dream I was sat on a hillside looking down on a very old
railway tunnel, I was looking onto the mouth, the brickwork was old. The track
was no longer used and overgrown. It felt like it had been there forever.

I woke up then had a third dream I was in a dark place with a wall behind me and a wall
in front of me. I could see what looked like upside down hooks or question marks
dangling in the air.

I woke up again, I was really confused so I drew them out. That's when I realised that
I was in the tunnel in the third dream!

After that I kept hearing sermons about God in the darkness, there is a lot about
this in the bible. Plus about treasures in darkness!

I also had a waking vision (I prefer the word picture that's what it seems like, as if someone
puts a picture in front of you). Of a tunnel and a feeling of being drawn into it, it wasn't
scary at all.

Then some time later I had a dream about being in that tunnel again! Only this time
that roof cracked open and I could see a chink of blue sky through the gap. That was
crucial I thought as we talk about light at the end of the tunnel, it doesn't have
to be like that. God can break in at any time!

A while after another dream that I was on a very old style cowboy western train.
It was like a box carriage covered in sawdust. As the train shook and moved, the
sawdust juddered and moved around forming letters. As they settled they kept
spelling out bigger picture on the floor over and over again!

I also got more about seeing the bigger picture as well. Too detailed to go into.

I really believe God was showing me that He knew me and my situations since time
began (the blue print) he knew the darkness I would experience but in dark
places, we can still hear that still small voice and seek answers ask questions,
we can dig our treasures and grow, and God is always present. That there will be
light at the end it (God will break in etc) it doesn't last forever. That there is a
need to think outside the box and see the bigger picture.

Those dreams by the way fit exactly with how I feel about my circumstances
and where I am now.

At the time of all this, I drew and wrote it all out I felt an overwhelming sense of
the Holy Spirit and wrote out the following. I'm not saying it's for everyone it was for
me at that time, but maybe it does apply generally too.

This is what I wrote and this is how I wrote it down.

There is so much more to the death and resurrection of Jesus, so much more to
understand about how it impacts on our lives, only just scratching the surface.
Do we really understand the implications of the cross...NO if we did it would
transform everything. WE HAVE NO IDEA, NEED TO SEARCH OUT HIDDEN TREASURES,
NEED TO THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX. NEED TO STOP LOOKING AT IT FROM OUR POINT
..... WEAK SINFUL NEEDING TO BE SAVED FROM DEATH AND NEED TO START THINKING
ABOUT IT FROM GOD's PERSPECTIVE. WHAT HE WANTS, WHAT HE WANTS TO
ACHIEVE. WHAT HE WANTS FROM A RELATIONSHIP PERSEPCTIVE.

ITS NOT ALL ABOUT US, EVERYTHING IS AT STAKE. ITS TOO IMPORTANT TO THINK SMALL.
NEED TO SEE THE BIG BIG PICTURE FROM GOD'S VIEW POINT.

BIG, NO BIGGER!


Sorry about the caps. Lol. That's just how I wrote it out at the time.
Ive pondered on this a lot since as we do tend to blinkered don't we,
seeing things only form our perspective and not God's.


These are the pictures I drew out at the time - sorry they
are not very good. Lol

Oops that hasn't worked, well here is the one of the blue print anyway,
its upside down for some odd reason so I won't post the rest.

I think if we all suspend our belief system for a moment and think logically and faithfully about God, the question is:

Is God connected to us only some of the time, or,

Is God connected to us all of the time?

Seeing God in others, seeing God in the world, seeing God in those who have a different belief system to us, seeing God in those who don't believe in God, seeing God in our dreams. These are things we are able to see when we are more connected to God, from our point of being. But when we are blind, we have no problem seeing evil in others, evil in the world, evil in those with a different belief system, evil in atheists, evil in dreams.

God is like the other side of the coin of the same focused perception. How many ways can one read into something? Is there a positive and a negative to everything, is there love and fear to everything?

Humans have a fundamental flaw, which most often grows more black and white into adulthood after being born a free spirited child. It is this mind, which is not the same mind God has, it is the mind of man. It is a mind which lives in duality, always believing in opposites.

God is singular in thought.

Jesus said you must love your enemies. [therefore the dual idea of friend or enemy becomes one, singular, no weighing who 'deserves' your love]

What happens if you work on only thinking lovingly? Like every time you feel a fearful thought [enemy], replace it with a loving thought? Every time you have a fear-based reaction [self/judgement, self/condemnation, self/preservation of truth), you don't act on it? I include self, in judgement of others, condemnation of others, preservation of the truth you believe, because all fear-based reactions are based on self. These things are meaningless compared to truly loving responses. If you want to change someone's thoughts, or guide them, self-oriented reactions never work, only encouraging, kind, empathic responses. If we are to be a branch on the vine, and Jesus is God in the flesh, then we are to be Love.

Invoking singular thinking is what Jesus, and God are all about. (Which is the highest thought, love or fear?) But while continuing with dualistic nature to argue points of what is right or wrong, who is right or wrong, which belief is right or wrong (including how you might want to respond to this, take note of that mind response), singular thinking is never learned. And I see these kinds of discussions all over this site, pointless discussions, parrying, duelling, for truth when it comes from a false place in the first place of arguing for it.

God doesn't separate things the way humans do. God is not human.

Speak of love, speak with love, speak from a pure intention of love (pure meaning without fear), and you are bringing God present. I try to remind myself of this all the time, sometimes people really frustrate me, but it's not because they challenge my beliefs, it is because I see such pride in those who like putting others down, because they don't agree with them, they have different beliefs. And they call it LOVE. So unbelievably distorted can the human mind be. It is like the word LOVE means less to these people than a distant past. But I still see God in them, I see that LOVE is something which feels painful to them, a lost love one, hurt by a person they loved, parent or partner, having love of yourself robbed away by tragedy.

I had some ideas for a thread, where people can say something loving, and before they post anything on the thread, they think for a moment where the post is coming from, loving intention (in line with God), or from their self. I often get the feeling people have no awareness of the difference between these, and they just talk by default.

As for Dreamlogger, he sounds different, lets embrace people for their differences!

Hi folks! I'm joining because I have received dreams three nights in a row telling me to be involved in a chat room!

Back in 2010 I told God He could send me dreams; this was after I'd seen a TV interview with John Paul Jackson. He had said that God wants to communicate more with His people at this time, and He is happy to send us dreams. I thought, "That's what I want! I can talk to Him in prayer, and He can talk to me through dreams!" So I said, "Please send me dreams!" He did, and I soon learned that I needed to write them down or I forgot them. So that's how I became a dream logger!

Now, after several years practice (and with JPJ's list of symbols to help get me started), I'm pretty good at understanding dreams. I believe that God wants me to join this chat site so that I can help people with this stuff. And sometimes I might be the one asking for help!
***greetings from Texas***also check out Morningstar Ministries (Rick Joyner)----they also have materials and outreach when it comes to dreams...

Dream interpretation books are just people's opinions of what dreams mean. I would advise you to stay away from dream intrepretation books. Sounds to close to the occult. Use the bible for help with interpreting dreams. Ask mature Christians about dreams you have. They can provide great insight into what a dream might mean. Sometimes when God gives a dream the meaning will be so obvious that you will just know what it means. Welcome to Christian Chat!

Cherie I commend you on wise advice, my thoughts as well; no need to look for interpretation of dreams that are of the Lord in other books than the bible. Also would like to mention that interpretation is consistent in the bible, the only thing to watch for, in parables for example of interpretation, is the natural meaning and the spiritual meaning, both are there and not to get them mixed up. The creation is meant to reveal God. If you understood what was said, everywhere there is an interpretation given for anything in the word it's consistent and your learning to interpret. For example: "Unless you are born of water and of the Spirit, you can not enter the kingdom of God." We can know that water represents the nations because Revelations gives the interpretation of a "Whore who stands on many waters," "These are the nations she has power over." And we know that being born of the Spirit is: The Living Water of Life," given to us for ever. Jesus saying "If any man thirst, let him come to me and drink (and this He spoke of the Holy spirit that would be given to everyone who believes)."
Stonesoffire just wrote a very good post on our Spirit becoming one with the Holy Spirit: Us becoming a new creature, recommended reading, just check her page to find her posts.

Miri, I'm impressed thanks for speaking up, showing up, writing actually. Treasures of darkness and the Light breaking in the darkness when we believe: The Holy Spirit, the Power of the Resurrection overcoming the darkness, awesome. I'm also writing on this, Started with The Dark Night of the soul, it's about the Journey to enter into rest in God.

I had interpretation of a dream of a train ready to go, with a mud slide ahead of the train that would risk derailing the train: The mud slide is the works of the flesh, idolatry, witchcraft = desire for control from different leaders and from ourselves, (they may be more accountable but we are accountable as well). The Lord has patiently waited for us, the different groups on the train to be of one accord: to find the God of the breakthrough: Both outpourings of the Holy Spirit in acts 2 and in acts 4 the believers were of one accord. We know the Locomotive is the Power of the Holy Spirit to move us into revival, to be overcomers in this life. You mentioned the track looked unused and looked like it had been there for ever, (What I just shared about interpretation I received then, did not even come to mind when I began to respond to you). I'm a little overwhelmed as well with to much to go into here as well; about the time of trouble such as never was: in my lifetime, and the greatest move of the Holy spirit in this final battle.

Even though it's overwhelming I encourage you to share more as well.

I will have to post a page from someone else describing a vision of this.
only the first 2 lines are from me responding to someone else's dream.

Your dream of 2 kinds of people with Love and without Love, you would know refers to believers and unbelievers.
It reminded me of this page that I read about the time of trouble of the end of the world, this is a copy.

The following is an end-time vision given to an established, seasoned minister of the gospel, Dr. Mark Barclay, and told in his own words. My heart was quickened when I read it and I thought: "This vision needs to be circulated to the body of Christ worldwide for we are seeing the increasing effects of it being unfolded in this hour, although it was given more than 25 years ago."
If you are skeptical of these things I would encourage you to listen to your heart as you read it and allow the Holy Spirit to bear witness with you.
"But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things. ... But the anointing which you have received from Him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. For as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and just as it has taught you, remain in Him" (1 John 2:20, 27)
Here then is the vision told in the minister's own words:
"In 1987 I was a speaker at a camp meeting in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I spoke during the Thursday evening service. Dr. Kenneth E. Hagin spoke during the Friday evening service. I remember that I had just flown in from meetings in Paris, France. I mentioned to my wife how much I would like to stay and hear Dr. Hagin speak. She agreed.
As Dr. Hagin entered the pulpit, he began to pray in tongues. When he started, I started. A moment later, I was caught up in a vision (I was told later that it was probably more like a trance). As I went into this vision, I remember how Dr. Hagin's voice was getting quieter and quieter, until I could hear him no more. It was so quiet all around me I felt like I could hear my own heartbeat.
All of a sudden I felt evil, as if it were surrounding me. Anger rose up in me, and fear tried to get a grip on me. Suddenly, something caught my attention out of my left eye. I turned hard to the left to see what it was. I saw the circumference of the earth, from one edge to the other, and this horrible black, dark cloud was rising up over the horizon. Somehow I knew it would eventually fill the entire earth.
An alarm went off in me, screaming to me to run away from it as fast as I could. I felt like I should scream at it, to stop it in its tracks by using the name of Jesus. I began to rebuke it and started to say, "In the name of Jesus ... " I didn't quite get it out, and the Lord said, "That will do you no good."
"What?" I said.
The Lord said, "Son, you cannot use My name to stop what I prophesied. I am not causing this dark cloud, but I did prophesy it would happen in the last days."
I remember in the vision that I asked the Lord "What is this? What is this evil, tempestuous, dark cloud?"
The Lord said, "This is what I showed My prophet, Isaiah (Isa. 60:1-2). This is every evil thing you can name. It is every demon, it is every disease, it is sickness and bacterial attacks that haven't even been discovered yet. It will cause humans to do things to humans that aren't even human. It is filled with insanity, and many people will lose their mind and their faculties. It is murder, terror, rape, abuse, terrorism, torture and much worse. It is filled with deceptions, heresies, perversions and filth."
Some things the Lord showed me I have not had permission to speak.
I also saw people—many, many people. Some were running into the dark cloud, and some were being sucked into it. It reminded me of this very powerful Shop-vac I have. It will not only suck up the dirt but also my tools, if I don't pay attention.
I saw may people screaming with terror and actually being dragged into this cloud. Though they were refusing it and resisting it with all their strength, they still did not possess the power to stop it.
I was so disturbed when I saw a cross on someone's pocket or jewelry. I remember saying to the Lord, "Who are those people being drawn into this filth and terror, wearing the Christian symbol of the cross? Who are these people, not even resisting? And who are these people, resisting with all their might but it does them no good? They just keep disappearing into this horrible, evil cloud of gross darkness."
The Lord answered me and said, "Oh, these are those who do not have clean hands and a pure heart. They have been warned but ignored the warnings. Some even wanted this filth as their lifestyle."
I asked, "Well, who are these wearing the cross?"
"Oh," the Lord said, "These are the people who claim Me as Savior. Many of them have desired this filth and even fought for it. They make excuses but are not excused. The ones who are resisting thought My prophets were exaggerating and from the old school, and they denied the warnings. Now that this evil has come, they possess little to no power, and certainly not enough to resist and overcome this horrible onslaught of enemy power. Only those with clean hands and a pure heart will be able to totally resist this. It will cover the earth."
There was much more to this, but I began to come out of the vision and once again heard Brother Hagin speaking in tongues from the pulpit.
I asked my wife what had happened, and she said, "Nothing, he hasn't done anything but pray in the spirit."

I began to realize that nobody seemed to see this vision or get caught up into this trance but me. I held my wife's hand a little tighter and began to pray fervently in the spirit. As I did, I got caught up in the spirit again.
Just like before, Brother Hagin's voice got quieter and quieter until it was gone. I found myself alone again. It was so quiet I could hear my own heartbeat. Suddenly, a piercing light hit the corner of my right eye. It was so bright that I instantly shrouded my head with my hands and arms. It reminded me of the intense light that my optometrist uses to examine the back of my eyes. Actually, it was much brighter than that.
Everything within me said, "Turn and look into it. Turn now, and run into it." Yet there was this hesitation because it was so bright it seemed to shine through me. Finally I gave in to it and looked directly at it. With both eyes I saw the depth of this bright cloud. Just like the dark cloud I had seen before, it was coming up over the horizon of the earth. I could tell that it was going to cover the planet. I just knew that I knew that nothing could stop it.
I remembered asking the Lord, "What is this? What is this massive, earth-consuming, bright cloud?"
The Lord answered me and said, "Oh, this is My glory. This is the glory cloud that I showed My prophet Isaiah (Isa. 61:1-2). This is what I promised, that My glory will fill the whole earth."
"Well," I asked, "what is inside the cloud?"
"It is filled with the greatest miracles humans have ever seen. It is filled with healing for every disease, and a cure for every sickness. It is power to overcome sin and filth—to receive the truth and reject error, heresy and doctrines of demons. It is a full manifestation of My Spirit. It is the full anointing of Jesus Christ and more, much more."
He showed me other things that I have no permission to speak at this time.

I saw people in this vision, just like before with the cloud of darkness. Many, many people were running into it and almost frolicking in it. It was like my first response—too bright to behold, and then I wanted to run into it. There were those who seemed to want to pull away from this glory cloud.
"Lord, who will enter into this great glory of God and enjoy this awesome power?" I asked.
"Those who have a pure heart and clean hands," the Lord answered. "They are the ones who will escape the horrible vacuum of the evil, dark cloud and be consumed with My glory. I will require you to tell these things to My people at an appointed time."
Now is that time! As I travel the world over, I see both of these manifestations happening. In fact, I see them beginning to intensify. Sometimes I say that both God and Satan are having a revival among men. We will now see more and more people running to each cloud, causing a great gulf or divide. Could this be the separation of sheep and goats, or the separation of wheat and tares?
I am not a conspiracy-theory person. I am not a fear-based preacher. I am not a prophet of doom. So what I am about to say is none of these. But, I am actually witnessing the spirits of the Antichrist, prepping the people of the earth (including many church goers) for the arrival of the Antichrist himself. I see demons (spirits of the Antichrist) going throughout all the earth. They are slowly re-programming the minds of men (doctrines of demons) to systematically disassemble the work of Christ and disengage the army of God.
You can avoid this, if you choose. If you choose not to, you will suffer the consequences. Please don't do that!" —Dr. Mark Barclay (marktbarclay.com

I think dreams are awesome, it is nice to have people opening up about their dreams!

While physically awake we have our mouths to speak, while we sleep we have audial imagery to speak.

If someone wrote a book about their dreams it would make a good read!

Hi stillness, the thing about the train and the mudslide. I think also
that trains seem to be about spiritual movement, the mudslide sounds
like an obstickle too.

The Barclay visions about all the evil yet to come sounds intesting. I think
Ive heard something similar somewhere else. We know the last days will be
as in the days of Noah which must have been really bad.

I was watching a TV programme a while back which hypothesised the
knowledge in the days of Noah was very advanced, it was about the way
ancient civilisations could make things with mathematical precision, such
as ornaments, statues, etc. It was very interesting. Maybe early mankind
was too intelligent for their own good, maybe we are getting that way again.
