Spiritual War

Dreams, Night Visions, Visions, Prophesies
The Spirit of God is always present for the saints in all dreams. His reaction to it depends on the season and the will of God as necessity arises. Even when his people find themselves in hell they cannot be separated from Him. There is no hell hole too deep for God to reach out to His child. The following are some of the functions of the spirit of God:(A previous chapter deals extensively with dreams.) Demonic dreams have no prophetic significance. Neither can they affect ones life. They are only active as they last, and defeated once they cease.
  1. He wields the sword: On most occassion you have vomited your sweet words, and cant speak anymore. With the spirit of God is power to reclaim and overtake the devil in his own nets and pits. Its important to take full advantage of such power while its present.
  2. He fights the ill creations to provide a way out. 



SURROUNDINGS

Darkness, uneasyness, lack, confusion, disorder and even panic are typical of evil dreams. The opposite is true for Godly ones. Filthiness, unleanliness is also a demonic characteristic of dreams. These dreams are usually vain and it is of little use in terms of an interpretation, other that confirming the fact that you are in a vulnerable place in the spiritual realm and need to take cover until the stormy season passes. Another typical presentation of a demonic dream is the presence of familiar spirits(people or presentation of surroundings familiar to you,) and also worn out or torn houses and clothes.

ACTIVITIES

Eating, seductive activities, undressing of even the least part of clothing is a bad sign.  Done by the rulers, in control & manipulation of the scenes,is a sign of a demonic dream. Also quite vain are such dreams so do not worry of their implications to you. They are not prophetic either. That is just the nature of the devil manifesting in a dream. He is quite vain. Never try to put a meaning on a word received from an evil spirit for this reason as the interpretation is worthless. It does not mean that the seductive familiar person in it is your future spouse. It is a vanity. Without power or ability to fulfill itself. They are not covenants. Never accept the common notion that such activities are covenants that can bind you negatively. Once joined to Christ in a covenant of His blood, none other can stand before His more superior covenant. So those deliverance services people are told they have to attend after such nightmares are of no value.

Panic, running away, fear is also a sign of a demonic dream. So is drowning, choking, and again, all vain dreams, that cannot touch you if they found you awake. Whatever it is you are runnimg from, is vain, in the dream. It is just a demon trying its luck. The ideal would be charging at the enemy that charges against you, which is sometimes enabled by the Holy Spirit. 


ANIMALS

Animals represent the powers of the Age. A king of a principality would be, sometimes represented as an animal in a dream. Again they are vain. If you are attacked by some weird animal in a dream, it does not have a spiritual repurcussion or "curse" attached to it. It simply means that a principality made war against you and lost. Period. Actually, the bondage is in how we react to such vanities as they victims. If in fear, they increase. Try ignoring them for once and notice how scarce they become. The power of a principality, just like in the natural, is hidden in the Character of the animal. It is for this reason that the beast in Daniel 7 and 8, and revelations are described in depth. They represent the principalities which later become prisons, in seasons of war. They hold captive. This is not something to whine and pine about since the earth is still under the gods(principalities of this age.) Refer to seasons of war for an instructive description of making war.

ANIMALS: USE IN SCRIPTURE

Amos 4:1
Hear this word yea kine of Bashan, that are in the mountaine of Samaria, which oppresse the poore, which crush the needy, which say to their masters; Bring, and let us drinke.
Vipers/serpents(above), for the religious rulers of the Age.
Dogs/wolves; for the same group.


Frogs reflect a spirit of deception at work.(Revelation)
13And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, & out of the mouth of the beast, & out of the mouth of the false prophet.
 The deception may be of a messenger of the devil disguised as a minister of righteousness, as in the scripture.Swarms of locust in the revelation is synonymous with warring hordes. Slugs, larvae and such like appearing in food shows the disdain in the meals of the rulers and is usually intended to make a person snap out of the deception. Trees mostly represent nations, as severally shown by the book of Daniel.
Conclusion
 The lessons on the interpretation of dreams establishes the need for the daily bread, praying without ceasing(let it not become a mechanical task), and the need for a protective hedge(A protective garment) around us- always. Also the Presence of the Spirit of God even in our unawareness, and the simplicity of grace. With good counsel, make war; Please do not fear these vanities. They are only as powerful as you make them so do not give them too much attention and thought.

Prayer and Supplication for all saints(the living ones,)who daily have to face the same challenges. Pride doesnt work. All authority comes from God, even in the Kingdom of darkness. The rulers bear the sword of God. Yielding ( to God and trusting Him to deal with any such offences pacifies great offences.)

 Finally, Know the seasons and Know when it is time to hide, and when you can be confrontational. Fighting without power can lead one to greater bondage, an increase in vanities, even to the point of torment. Let the counsel for war come from God directly to you. you do not need direction for some of these important things to come from men as they may mislead, intentionally or not. These vanities in dreams tend to increase when one goes on the offence powerless. Wait on God, then the war will actually bear fruit.
