1 | Dreams ... Genesis-Revelation | Bible general Archive 4 | Aileen | 228987 | ||
My daughter-in-law has a re-occuring dream (at least 2x a week) regarding the end of time. By fire. She was wondering if like Joseph ... could others (including herself) be being sent a message from GOD? She is pretty worked up about it because it happens so frequently and is always the same. | ||||||

Hello biblicalman, Are you then suggesting that God is communicating with her through a dream? What biblical support do you offer for this? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

Hi Brad Well God does sometimes communicate with people in a general way through dreams. There are a number of dreams in both Old and New Testaments which were significant (e.g. both Josephs, old and new). God spoke to Gideon through the dream of an unbeliever (Judges 7.13-15). And lower level prophets gained knowledge through dreams (Numbers 12.6). 1 Sam 28.6 appears to suggest it was sometimes an acceptable mode of learning God's will. I can therefore warn people not to take dreams too seriously, but if someone believes their dream is of God I do better to help them interpret it in a Scriptural fashion, and I am in no position to dismiss a dream out of hand especially if regularly repeated. If I do not give guidance someone else might do so to worse effect. But what I was rather saying was that she would do well, if she believes the dream to be significant, to gain a Scriptural lesson through her dream rather than seeing it as a vivid sign of the Lord's near return or a special message just for her. If a dream turns someone to considering Scriptural truth it can only be good. What I would be against would be using a dream as an excuse for doing something unusual or giving some unusual interpretation. Best wishes |
