Ive been seeing threads about dreams where people are amused at their own dreams and others dreams!
Ive read enough input from some of you to realize you are skating on thin ice with this gnostic spiritual take on dreams.
You have been seduced by the serpent.
"Dreams can go hand in hand with visions – today, both of these are part of the prophetic movement that was once an iceberg that has melted over the Christian landscape.>>>>>>>>>>>>>> MYSTISISM
One Christian website states- “God has chosen to communicate with mankind through dreams. He guides and counsels us through our dreams. He establishes covenants with us through our dreams. He grants us gifts in our dreams. He utilized dreams from Genesis to Revelation, and declared that He would continue to use them in the last days. When you total up all dreams and visions in the Bible, and all the stories and actions which come out of these dreams and visions, you have about one-third of the Bible, which is equal to the size of the New Testament!
This is partially true. In the Old Testament books (Genesis and Daniel) we have a number of references to them. Dreams play a smaller but important part in Biblical revelation.
There is a difference when someone tells you to ask the Holy Spirit for dreams, visions, instead of focusing on learning the word; it is a clear giveaway of what their intentions are. The Gnostic or mystic will always elevate dreams, visions, or a spiritual experience above the written word. They will not question its authenticity because their belief is that there is no deception to be aware of. As one continues to become open and seek an “experience or new revelation” in this manner, instead of the literal written Word, new revelations can come more fluently through voices, dreams, visions etc.. As they continually seek outside the Scriptures for their instruction, they eventually will deny the sufficiency of Scripture - and their spiritual health will suffer.
The main premise for dreams and visions today is that it is one of the activities of the Spirits being outpoured in the last days. Peter quotes Joel 2:28 in Acts 2: “And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions.”
Jer 29:8 Yes, this is what the LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, says: "Do not let the prophets and diviners among you deceive you. Do not listen to the dreams you encourage them to have.

You are most likely not PROPHETIC but in reality you are sadly deceived! Furthermore, if someone tells you they can interpret your dream saying that the elephant meant this or the "whatever" >meant that; RUN! Get on yur face and repent of entertaining spirits that are NOT from God!!
God gave us his word to weigh the truth. He tells us to test the spirits. That means: weigh it against HIS WORD and not to run amuck asking whoever will entertain our delusions!!
