Subject: How can I deal with satan showing hiself |
Bible Note: Hank, Thank you brother for responding to my post. I hope that the Lord is blessing you and that the fire of the Holy Spirit burns bright and hot in you soul. In response to your post, Hank, even the author of the thread clearly saw his/her experience as a supernatural one. The Lord (Often the author of dreams and visions) also sees dreams as supernatural. -Job 33 14 But God speaks again and again, though people do not recognize it. 15 He speaks in dreams, in visions of the night when deep sleep falls on people as they lie in bed. 16 He whispers in their ear and terrifies them with his warning. -Numbers 12 6 And the LORD said to them, "Now listen to me! Even with prophets, I the LORD communicate by visions and dreams." So by these two verses from the Bible im sure that we both will agree that dreams are indeed inspired, authored and committed by God himself.I am still researching and may find it nessecary to recant my earlier statement that this persons dream may be of the enemy. But without a doubt the scriptures indicate that dreams are of the supernatural, Whether set into motion by God in nature or deemed nessecary bu th Lord in which to impart something particular. As far as my qualifications go, it would seem brother, that if I could fit the qualifications of my brother Joeseph ( a young poor shepard) then surely I may feel bold (with the spirit of the Lord in me) to venture a guess, based on Biblical truth and guidance from the Holy Spirit.please take note on what happened when the Pharaoh called upon the "magicians" and "wisemen" of the day..... -Genesis 41 8 The next morning, as he thought about it, Pharaoh became very concerned as to what the dreams might mean. So he called for all the magicians and wise men of Egypt and told them about his dreams, but not one of them could suggest what they meant. -Job 7 14 "you shatter me with dreams. You terrify me with visions." In summary my friend....it would seem from the very word of the Lord that dreams were a common way to communicate...and that God chose very common people to convey their meanings..you use the term "qualified individual" I translate that as "wisemen" who couldn't begin to discern their meaning. The Lord said; "I will use the foolish things of this world to shame those who think they are wise." I consider myself neither a dream translater or a wiseman, but I DO know that I have indeed had similar dreams or visions in my past. I neither sought any worldly explanation or translation but called upon brothers and sisters to help me pray for meaning. I hope that out brother and sister will see that finding the solution to an obvious spiritual incident will require a spiritual answer. Take care my brother, all said in Love and Christian kindness....... |
