Dreams - part 1

The Oxford dictionary defines a dream as series of thoughts, images, and sensations occurring in a person’s mind during sleep.

 Job 33: 14 - 18 For God speaks once, or twice, and yet no one listens. 15 In a dream, a special dream of the night, when deep sleep comes upon men, while they sleep in their beds,16 then He opens the ears of men. 

He teaches them and makes them afraid telling them of danger, 17 that He may turn man away from wrong-doing and keep him from pride. 18 He keeps his soul from going to the place of the dead. And He keeps his life from being destroyed by the sword.

The Lord speaks to us through dreams. He tells us of things to come, and warns us if there is any evil ahead of us through dreams. There are certain dreams that repeat themselves for emphasis. Pharaoh's dream which Joseph interpreted  in Genesis 41 was a double dream with the same meaning. God gave it to Pharaoh to warn him of what was ahead of him.

We ought to be sensitive to God's voice to us through dreams. It is a guiding voice, and should we struggle to understand what He is saying, we ought to ask Him to explain to us.

Your dreams can paint a picture of what is, and what is to come. Be sensitive to them.
