Bible Question: This is the only verse I found about someone experiencing bad dreams. My girlfriend is suffering from some bad dreams that we both think are spiritual attacks and we're praying and asking for advice. |
Bible Answer: Greetings Yehoshua and welcome to the Forum. I can't ascertain if these are "spiritual attacks," but I can speak from my own experience. It does not matter what the dream is, but how you respond to it! You are doing the right thing - praying about it. (Be sure you ask GOD for the advice though!) A while back I had a very disturbing dream. It was vivid and actually woke me up. I went to the Lord in prayer about it and when I did not have any peace, I called my prayer partner to come over and pray with me. When I told her of the content of the dream, I think she was just as terrified as I was. So we went before the Lord and asked Him to reveal the meaning. As we were praying, God opened my mind to understand the dream - I had immediate comfort and peace. On the other hand, I had another disturbing dream that God has SLOWLY revealed its meaning to me. He reminds me of this dream periodically and more and more pieces of the puzzle come together. I am confident that one day, I will have the complete picture of what the Lord is trying to teach me . . . Bottom line is this - We have no control over our dreams but God is sovereign - He knows all about what we are experiencing. The only thing we have control over is HOW we respond to these troubling circumstances in our lives. Keep seeking God in this and trust Him to reveal Himself to you through this experience. Don't limit God, a "bad" dream can certainly bring about good. (God!) Blessings, mommapbs |
