Sounds to me like you really wanted some money. :p $$$ lol

Seriously though, you've given very little information to go on, and as others have suggested a dream's recurrence doesn't necessarily mean it is from God. Sometimes it is the way we process information. One might feel powerless in their life, at the time, and so they have a dream of feeling extremely weak. It is self-reflective.

While I believe God can use dreams if He so chooses, I think for the most part, a dream is just a dream. None of us want to lose all our teeth so I think it probably reflects a thought or a concern. Have you asked Him?

I used to have a recurrent dream of my teeth falling out, does anyone know the meaning?
Yes, I can interpret dreams of the wildest dreams known to mankind, and hard for the mere common man to understand, but first I have to summon Daniel from the dead and he will tell me, and I will tell you, and then you are free to tell whomever thou wantest.

Daniel said wise words to me, and said you dreamed a dream of teeth falling out, and this is the interpretation thereof, your dream means that you had a dream of your teeth falling out, lol.

And that is all.

I do not even try to interpret my dreams, and it appears I dream every night, but as soon as a I wake up I do not even care to understand what it means, but forget it.

I think people of the world can go overboard with things thinking it is a benefit, especially the occult, and nature worship, for it seems like it can do more harm than good, and they start thinking things that are not even true concerning their dreams, it means this, and it means that.

Who cares about the dream when you know what your life is about, whether good, or trouble in it, so would you not know what is happening in your life when awake, so what good is a dream when you can examine your life when awake, and you know what it is about.

Like people that meditate, and empty their mind, and repeat phrases, which I think what they do is give them self a spaced out mind, and then they attribute it to something good.

The occult need to leave their minds alone with all the silly practices they do, and things they try to understand, for then they go off to la la land.

God warns us of the new age movement, and their false interpretation of the Bible based on the occult, and evolution, and people can still evolve, which they look at things from the natural viewpoint to be spiritual, and they are in to tarot cards, and aligning their chakras, and interpreting dreams, and the such.

I had a dream of my teeth falling out, but I did not think anything about it, but only a dream of my teeth falling out.

When we are awake we can experience good things, in our life, and bad things, and if a tooth fell out when we were awake we would not try to interpret it, but our tooth fell out.

So when we dream we can also experience good things, and bad things, and it is not always a positive experience, like when we are awake it is not always a positive experience.

If we get in to a wreck when awake we say we got in to a wreck, nothing more, but if we dream it we will try to interpret it which does not make sense, it is only a scenario of something that happened when we dreamed, like it happens when we are awake.

Even years ago when I dreamed I was flying I did not think anything of it, but it was only a dream of me flying, and I did not think it was weird, or needed interpreting for when we dream of course our mind can explore more to do things for it is a dream, and not reality.

Sometimes when I dreamed I knew it was a dream, so if I decided to fly why would I think anything weird about it, or it needs interpreting when I knew it was a dream and it was possible.

When I was a child I dreamed Godzilla was chasing me, and King Kong, and I even took on the Hulk in my dream and was beating him, but he gets more aggressive as time goes on that I had to wake myself up, and dreamed I was floating, flying in a sitting position with animals on the ground, and 3 of them came up after me, which was a kangaroo, and behind it a tiger, and behind it a gorilla, and dreamed I was floating on an object that was not that big in space.

But I still did not think it was weird, or try to understand it, for it is a dream that is why.

You notice people that go under anesthesia for their wisdom teeth, or whatever it is, when they wake up they say the silliest things, and think things that are silly.

One 16 year old boy thought he was in a space ship when riding home, and like a child learning things, for he asked what is this, and what is that, and can we go visit Goldilocks, and wondered why his eyes were leaking, among other things.

And one lady thought she was superman, for she was wearing a shirt with the big S on it, and that she saved people, and their dogs, and wondered why the needle was in her arm, and thought her arm was broken, and said she tussled with a bear in the woods, among other things.

So people should not be surprised if their dreams might seem weird, for does the mind actually have a true grasp of things reality wise when they dream, or can they be silly, or weird, and people not think I have to interpret this dream.

Some people think they have to interpret dreams, but to me it is a hassle, and my life seems crystal clear, and going good, but if I got in to interpreting dreams then my life could be a mess for I will think that there is something wrong when there is nothing wrong, for I know what is going on when I am awake, so why would I burden myself with a dream and think there is something wrong because of it, when I know there is nothing wrong when I am awake.

It is like people that run to a psychiatrist for 3 years and nothing has changed all because they will not let it go, for the only solution is let it go, which there is only 2 things that we should actually be bothered with on this planet, and that is if we offend God, or offend people, so why are people crying about other things for years and years.

Because they have to understand why, and all it does is boggle their mind, and make it worse, for you cannot understand it plain and simple, but to let it go.

The same with dreams with people thinking there is something wrong, when there is nothing wrong.

But if there is something to this dream thing I do not want to step on their toes, but I do not understand it for all I need is to know the word of God for a benefit, and I will surely know if the dream was from God.

But we are saved by faith, which is why Jesus told Thomas that he believed Jesus rose from the dead because he has seen, but blessed is he that has not seen but believes, for faith is believing in a kingdom, and a God, you cannot see.

So if God spoke to someone, or gave them a dream, would that violate their faith by giving them evidence that He does exist coming from His personal self, like Jesus showed Himself to Thomas.

For the scriptures say that is what is profitable to you for a relationship with God, so what will the dream mean.

God has to warn someone to take care of their teeth as if they cannot figure that one out on their own.

Things that make you go hmmm.

They say that when you dream of your teeth falling out, stems from a feeling of your words falling on deaf ears, not being able to express yourself, or not having the opportunity to express oneself. etc. etc.
That's what they say.

And a very common dream at that, I've had many of the kind. Just you sorting through daily life and struggles. The
need to be heard, understood, and appreciated is deep within us all.

Joseph and Daniel are long gone. What your dream means is that you will live to a ripe old age!;)

when we belong to our heavenly Father, IF He allows us to remember our dreams, then we will
be able to take what He has given us and realize that is a process of our 'over-coming'...

all dreams are not from God and even if they are from God, what is this exactly?

it would seem more like fortune telling if you ask me to come here and throw that dream out for 'open' interpretation

and what does that have to do with this site? does not matter which forum you go on (and there are plenty) you will find all kinds of opinions and interpretations that have nothing to do with this site but everything to do with a lack of biblical understanding and too much eagerness to label something 'God' when it is not
Will you read what I said and stop talking nonsense at me.

I said I was referring to how people behave, not how people interpret dreams.
Go back and READ, or are you one of the many people in this site that doesn't seem to have that ability?

perhaps you just 'interpret' it as nonsense? :unsure:

and this is what I said:

actually and without prejudice, one reason so many have a problem with the supernatural (I do believe and practice the gifts so that is not my reason for replying as I am about to) is because people devalue it by trying to interpret things that are normal as though they were not and by thinking everything has to have some kind of super duper meaning

these forums have not been accurately described. we do not put personal experience before the written word

yet many do and then poo poo all who caution

you said you gave him a thumbs up for accurately describing the forums and I said the above; above you state many people on this site cannot read...actually it is comprehension that is missing and you have just illustrated that fact by projecting yourself into what I said

I can't help it if your understanding is in a rut and cannot take in a thought different than one that might occur to you

I hope that is insulting enough? I try to please


you need to calm down. it's not a do or die situation...unless you follow a bizarre dream of some sort and get in a bad situation :sneaky:

I will look for the word 'Real' on each can or package of food before I buy.
Well thats good but its best if you can grow your own food. Then you know its real and not mushed up mash of 66 different ingredients from God knows where.

Both Joseph and Daniel interpreted dreams of their unbelieving masters that were troubling them. Apparently they could not really figure them out on their own because being unbelievers they couldnt just ask God themselves. God often gives dreams to people to get their attention.

If a dream is recurring He may want you to take note!

You could look for the word organic or maybe natural when shopping for food. Sometimes the way things are advertised can be tricky. On juices it may say made with real strawberries and that may be true but perhaps not too many strawberries percentage wise. Even foods with that say natural might not be completely natural.

Where I live in Clearwater, Florida doesn't really allow for setting up a garden. Maybe a couple pots of tomatoes but that's about it. Actually, I really don't have a lot of time to allow for the planting, upkeep, and harvesting of a garden. Cheaper to just buy produce at the store. Time is money also.

search the Bible, I know it said that muddy waters was troubles or something to that effect, just put in the keyword search , wasn't Daniel one that could interpret dreams, and someone else too.
there are books out there on dreams and what they mean, actually my friend had 2 books, check the library...
I heard someone once say dreams were our fears....well, I dreamed of carrying a baby last night and then gave it back to my son....so sure it wasn't me going to have one, I am not married and gone past that stage in life, could be he may have one, or just that I miss my grandkids

Dreams that reoccur, we remember very vividly, wake us up or send us in search of it’s meaning generally need to be understood.

There are plenty of scriptures that show us God does use dreams sometimes to communicate a message to us.

To interpret dreams pray - ask God if the dream means anything. Look in the Bible to see if something in your dream is in the Bible.

Teeth falling out is in the Bible. It is usually associated with God’s judgement. Go and see what it means.
