The word for today is -  Dreams !

 

Everyone assumes that dreams and visions are coming from God, this is not true! Why? Sometimes, dreams and visions are coming from your own day-to-day activities or problems.Thats you ! Read 2 Timothy 3:16-17,All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. That is God ! Then the other side is from the dark side Satan .We need to make a distinction between visions that come from God and those that come from Satan. Why? Because some visions and dreams are deceiving spirits, they are not from God. We need to know what is really coming from God, and we must think twice before assuming they are coming from God.The word of God says,in 1 John 4:1-3,Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.  So,God spoke to His prophets in dreams and visions and Jesus spoke in parables. Why ? Because it is only  God who can and will reveal the mysteries to us, by His Spirit.  Read Mark 4:9-12,And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable. And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.  It is Spiritual !!!! Lets look at Daniel 2:25-29, Then Arioch brought in Daniel before the king in haste, and said thus unto him, I have found a man of the captives of Judah, that will make known unto the king the interpretation.The king answered and said to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, Art thou able to make known unto me the dream which I have seen, and the interpretation thereof? Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, The secret which the king hath demanded cannot the wise men, the astrologers, the magicians, the soothsayers, shew unto the king; But there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets, and maketh known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these; As for thee, O king, thy thoughts came into thy mind upon thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter: and he that revealeth secrets maketh known to thee what shall come to pass. This means man does not understand the things of God from the flesh, you must get understanding first, God is a Spirit and the things of God comes from the Spiritual Realm. The word says in Daniel 10:13-14, But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia. Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days. You have to understand the Holy Spirit is a helper inorder for us to understand the things of God. Read Hebrews 4:12,For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. You see there is Spiritual battles taking place now, its war between the forces of darkness and the kingdom of light. Spiritual warfare, there are also many sides engaged in misinformation and destruction, ever dream or vision is not of God. The Apostle Paul says to be strong in the Lord, and put on the full armor of God ,so that you can stand firm against the schemes of the devil, read Ephesians 6:10-12, Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Your on a battlefield, do you have on your full armor of God (His word)?  Satan is depicted as a formidable enemy who is angry and dangerous, Peter warns the believers to be prudent and on the lookout for this enemy. The enemy is in the Spiritual Realm, he is real, and he is out to devour you. We must become equipped to do battle in the spiritual realm, so never approach the battle field unarmed and unshielded. Thank you Lord for your Spirit that dwells in us, with out your Spirit, we would not understand your ways.We are victorious, we are winners !!!!!!! Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
