Christians and Dreams

Dealing with Dream questions.

Should Christians get counsel over Dreams they've had? 

Dreams cannot usurp the authority of Scripture.

If you have a dream and feel that perhaps God gave it to you, prayerfully examine the Word of God and make sure your dream is in agreement with Scripture. If it is, prayerfully consider what God would have you do in response to your dream (James 1:5) [as you are called to holy living]. In Scripture, whenever anyone experienced a dream from God, God always made the meaning of the dream clear, whether directly to the person, through an angel, or through another messenger (Genesis 40:5–11; Daniel 2:45; 4:19). When God speaks to us, He makes sure His message is clearly understood (1). 








Dreams today are simply garbled goop you've taken into your mind that day or week in your life, and a combination of fears and anxieties (including sin). It is important to know and recognize that today God doesn't work through dreams as he did in the Old Testament. When you dream about fears, or concerns, or you're gravitating towards sin, He can use your subconscious in your dreams (in that kind of way) to call you to righteousness, or to lead you to give attention to it so you can correct or/and have peace on a matter. 

When needed seek godly counsel on what is troubling you in your life, so you can get direction and closure. If you need to repent, do it, or/and thank and praise Him for leading you to resolution.

Fornication led to pregnancy

Q: Recently I sinned by fornicating again. I did ask forgiveness from God for being unfaithful again. I thought God had forgiven me (& I’m no longer participating in such activities). I had just repented and made the effort to turn from evil, but...just found out I’m pregnant. It was one brief moment!! Really and truly I cannot believe I’ve went backwards like that and my life feels ruined. I don't understand. Did God truly forgive me? Should I stop praying, because I knew better but I didn’t do better. I said yes to my flesh and now it’s costing me. I’m willing to lose everything else, but to lose Jesus because of my sin - I really cannot bare the thought. A: You dont stop praying because things dont go your way. Prayer is to align you to God's will, (not for him to act as a genie who does what you want). You becoming pregnant wasn't a punishment from God; it was basic natural outcomes of happens when humans have sex. You know Scripture teaches sex was designed only ...
