It seems like many are having dreams on c..c ,I read in posts, and, not good dreams. I want to tell you of the power of dreams through story, and, what better story than one from God's words in the bible.
Dreams are very powerful creations in our lives and although are not truly us in our living day to day doings, they are something we are clearly thinking of in our minds, subconsciously, or, even consciously, as, sometimes, we wake up in the middle of our dreams and our nightmares. Of good dreams, there is peace. Of bad dreams, though wild and wonderful in the moment, they are not good things that are going on even though we like what's going on.
I'm not going to divulge more than that, but to say that that is a window in, to your real life, likely, and, the kind of things that are going on in it. Perhaps, it's good, then, to keep those dreams in mind relating them to your current season in life.
Are you seeing someone who is suspect of truly following Christ in their life ?
Are your free hours being spent doing things that make God jealous? Putting God second to your like ?
Are you enjoying the macabre , the gore, of life's scenes and scenery and 'transmissions' on tv and dvd and iTV and Tivo more than God speaking to you now of things of your life He wants you to be doing for His glory, for remembering His gory past alone, to dream a night's dream?

God used dreams and visions for Joseph, and, others VERY EARLY in the New Testament, like Matthew 1 , showing in this and other Gospel books, of Joseph, of the wisemen, powerful, powerful DREAMS. Joseph, of course, the man who was used by God to give off great reassurance--through dreams-- for the virgin, Mary, to go through with the birth of the Holy Spirit Who was in her belly
Did you know that Joseph nearly divorced Mary, but something happened.... and it was an angel APPEARING to Joseph in a dream.
Dream #1: Matthew 1:19-21
So, dreams from God powerful? Joseph went from divorce thinking to marriage happening
-----------------------zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz------------------------
Herod, the king of Israel, wanted to kill Jesus so Herod asked the three wisemen to report back where Jesus was born.
Dream # 2: Matthew 2:12
Look at THAT dream's power, the wisemen were warned by God in a dream NOT to return to Herod.
-----------------------zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz-----------------------
Again, a scant one verse later, is another show-up of an angel in a dream of Joseph's, warning Joseph that Herod wanted to kill baby J.
Dream # 3: Matthew 2:13
-----------------------zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz------------------------
Again, Joseph and Mary waited with baby Jesus until a DREAM said to do different
Dream # 4: Matthew 2:20
What I want to note, is that the angel did not come to Joseph in Joseph's real day to day doings, the angel came to Joseph in a dream. That tells me that God thought very highly of dreams back then. And, today, too, since God is the same today, as yesterday, as forevermore, God STILL today values the importance of dreams to tell us things in life

His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit. 19Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet[SUP]e[/SUP] did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly. 20But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. 21She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus,[SUP]f[/SUP] because he will save his people from their sins.”

When they (the wisemen) had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up,” he said, “take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.”

After Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt 20and said, “Get up, take the child and his mother and go to the land of Israel, for those who were trying to take the child’s life are dead.”
