Dreams and visions are methods used to reveal lessons, provide instruction, counsel and direction, and even warnings. Prophetic events also occur through this medium. Dreams and visions can range from severity to humorous, depending on the dreamers’ attention to the spiritual journey.

Life’s purpose determines intensity and frequency of the dreams. Corresponding events always follow a dream or vision and may transpire immediately, or occur at a later time. Either way, the natural desire to know can allow the imagination to distort or confuse the message being conveyed by the forms or images. Any desire to remain in the survival mode will cause the believer to twist what has been seen or heard.

Asking God, waiting and listening with careful deliberation will eventually clarify the nature of any spiritual message and its consequences.
