I dreamt that i had to read a Bible verse, Luke 10 and Luke 20, and I was frantically searching for it b/c I had to read it in front of an audience for a Bible study. But i couldn't find it. Someone came to me and I realized that I wasn't holding the Bible in my hand but searching through the some kind of religious book. I was then given the Bible and was still searching for the passage Luke and finally found it in time so I could read it to the small audience. |

I don't know what it means to dream about a bible verse since your question is new to me. Maybe God wants you to read the verse that you dream about? Who knows but only God knows and He may have a reason for you to dream about a bible verse. You have a good questions. The closest spiritual dream I had are the angels. There were more angels and there stood only one on the ground that I managed to observe that angel and I can remember that angel clearly. He was facing the other way and I couldn't see his face. :( Maybe your dream has meanings that you don't even know what they are. I don't even know why the angels appeared in my dream. |

This is an interesting dream, for sure. The first thing to notice is that 10 is half of twenty, though this information may not be important at first. Second, there is no verse PLUS chapter, so it does not appear to be a Bible reference. If the dream means chapter 10 and chapter 20, then that is a chunk of material in terms of quantity of text. This is the text that you are supposed to have ready to more or less reproduce for others. (the audience). Having a text of Bible truth "ready" suggests that you have grown into this truth and live it. (Living it=reading aloud) It may be that you take significant "time outs" in your spiritual life and ignore your spiritual development until you have to do it, just like one who lets the housekeeping go way too long. Then, there is double to do. (10 to 20) It may be that God is pointing out that a more consistent practice will mean a more consistent witness of Him. If so, then the "other religious book" may represent just settling for being a good person instead of a witness. I have no information to go on, and I realize this is tremendously personal stuff. It would be nice if you could tell me if my viewing seems true. I have studied dreamwork and examined many dreams. They are avenues of awareness for healing and personal/spiritual growth. |

Wow! that was really good. I have seriously grown a lot spiritually recently and have now deeply understood bible verses that I have heard for years. I have had many trials in my life and been going through a few now and have been leaning on God and asking him several questions. What also struck me about your interpretation is that I have gone through ups and downs moments with my Faith and Trust in God. I'm usually am up but when I'm down, I'm down so when you said "It may be that you take significant "time outs" in your spiritual life and ignore your spiritual development until you have to do it", it is so true. Though I want to pray and grow spiritually, I realized that deep inside I did not want to lean on God as a crutch for everything....until I have to do it. And that's when I read many scriptures, pray more often , etc. SO, when you say, "It may be that God is pointing out that a more consistent practice will mean a more consistent witness of Him", that strikes me b/c i have been asking him many questions about seeing my prayers manifest on a consistent and immediate basis. You make great sense about the "other religious book" and "just settling for being a good person instead of a witness" although i would like further explanation about what you mean exactly when you say 'witness." to help you better in interpreting i'll explain the dream better: I was hurrying to look for the passage b/c I had to go up to read at a certain time (i.e. in 5 minutes) and someone was already at the podium speaking while i was searching so by the time they finished, I had to go up to read. / I thought the religious book in my hand was the Bible at first until I was shown it was not/ Yes, that is a chunk of a chapter to read but yes, I was told that I was to read Luke 10 and Luke 20...it's interesting you noticed that 10 is half. I don't know if that means anything but interesting. Thanks!!! please do share aything further you may have. :)

Thanks, that was great. I have been going through a lot of ups and downs. Mostly through impatience ......or delay. I find that in my life i wait and wait and wait for what most ppl get 'on time.' I have multiple experience with that and that's where my faith wanes. Then I get my spirit up again and then cycle continues. I don't know if there's a negative belief aspect in me that allows this to occur or God testing me or both.
Last night had another interesting dream where I was holding a newborn baby. a woman had just given birth to this baby (a woman in a white dress and she wanted to give birth standing up for some reason as if such birth process would be good for the baby - yes wow. lol) Anyway, so the baby is handed to my sister to hold but she acts carelessly and doesn't hold the baby's head as we all know should be done and the newborn's head bent back. I heard a crack sound but the baby was okay and I took the baby from my sister and told and showed her the right way to hold the baby. Later i was carrying the baby around while i was going shopping. I also remember that this baby later on didn't necessarily want me, either as its caretaker or just didn't think I was good enough for it. It wanted someone more attractive than I per se..... |
