PERSONAL DREAMS OF 2008

This is TOO funny! Richard left for work last night at 10:05. I tossed and turned, and couldn't go to sleep, even with having taken my two Tylenol PM's at 8:00. Usually within 2 hours of taking them, I am so sleepy, I can barely hold my eyes open! But not last night! So I called Richard and asked him to call me at 5:00 a.m. in the morning if I hadn't called and told him I was up yet. He told me I would never fall asleep if I didn't get off the phone and go to bed! So I uploaded today's updates at that time, then went to bed around 10:50. Still I tossed and turned, but probably for only 5 minutes or so. This morning I heard one cell phone beep, like when AT&T rolls someone over after only one ring. I got up out of the bed, and the clock said 4:59. I called Richard to tell him I was up. We talked for about a minute or so, and I said, "Sorry, that blasted AT&T rolled you over after one ring!" He said, "What? I haven't called you yet... you said 5:00 and it's only 4:59!" {Twilight Zone music plays here!} I said, "Father Yahweh must have decided it was time for me to get up! Thank You, Father!" :)

I also dreamed that I was in bed (somewhere, though I didn’t recognize the home I was in, and Richard wasn’t in the dream). A man whom I didn’t know got into the bed as well. My head was at the top of the bed; his was at the bottom of the bed. Looking at him, I instinctively knew he was evil, and when he spoke to me, I knew for SURE he was, though I don’t remember what he threatened me with. I looked at him and told him he was evil, and cursed him in the Name of Father Yahweh. When I did, he began cursing me in a language I didn’t understand. I looked at him and told him that Father Yahweh was stronger than the “god” he served, and that he didn’t scare me with his threats. My Mom came into the room at the time and the man disappeared.

I dreamed that I was at work (it was actually where I used to work years ago, though in my dream, it was the place I work now). I had just been laid off, and was waiting for someone to pick me up and bring me home. The “someone” was a girl I used to think was a true friend of mine, who turned out to be a big-time user, both of drugs and of Richard & I. Her name is Mary, and I haven’t seen her in years since I first found out about her two-faced nature, and because of something she did that hurt me very deeply.

I sense the Lord is calling you to face something 'head on' so to speak. To stir up the Spirit within you, rise up in your full authority as a child of the Living God and deal with whatever the situation is. I don't know what it is from the dream, I can only say it has to do with your inner-most private area's and it is important to you. You won't be doing it alone, as your mom (Holy Spirit) is there to back you up.

As you do not recognize the home you were in, I believe this could indicate you may not be aware of the situation that has allowed this evil 'man' entrance, at least on a natural level, spiritually you must be attune as you had the dream. Ask the Lord for clearer revelation and He will surely give it to you.

Both portions of the dream deal with the 'face', the first part you are not head to head or face to face with the man, and the second part refers to Mary who is 'two-faced', or not to be trusted.

The dream is also dealing with your authority. You discern the man is evil, which is great, yet even as you call upon the name of the Lord you are not able to banish him as your mom (Holy Spirit) does as she only has to walk into the room. The second part, tho you know Mary is not to be trusted, you are still waiting for her rather then finding another way home. Both situations need you to act, and tho you do in the first portion, you are not effective as you should be. The second part you are just letting what/who happen as it unfolds as you are 'waiting' for your ride.

I believe the Lord used Mary more for her character rather then she herself. I sense He is calling you to deal with this problem which is intimate in nature and He is letting you know He is with you, you are not 'facing' it alone as I believe your mom here is Holy Spirit and as you are so filled you actually do have the power and authority and even the ability to deal with this situation 'head on', if allowed to continue great 'bitterness' may arise and that is so very destructive.

There is also power in numbers, once your mom enters the room there is double-portion power and the enemy has to flee. The Lord is revealing your weapons of warfare are unity, authority, His name, declaring, to name but a few.

I pray this is helpful and please as always let me know. It was great hearing from you!!

I was at work, but the people in my dream were not really my coworkers and boss, they were our next door neighbors at work (in reality, I mean, but in the dream, they were my coworkers and boss). I heard I had a new coworker, but he was out of the office. My boss told me he couldn’t remember the guy’s name, but that he was a Christian. I told him that’s OK, I speak Christian.

Someone had thrown a bomb in our office, and no one knew where to put it in the office to do the least amount of damage. They were putting it in various places. I finally told them, “For crying out loud, open the door and throw it across the street; just make sure there’s no one in the way of it so nobody gets hurt. So they did, then we got under our desks, and heard it go off. I remember thinking, “That was a powerful blast; it would have blown us up if we hadn’t thrown it outside!” Then I asked was anyone hurt, and it turns out no one was.

Then I went looking for our dog (we have two Samoyeds… one is a black female named Kayla, the other is her blond brother, Rusty, but in my dream, all we had was Kayla), and finally found one that looked like Kayla, so I picked her up, and she turned around and bit me. I told Richard, and he said, “She shouldn’t have bit you anyway! Say something in French, and Kayla will come.” (That part makes NO sense to me!) So I said, “Comment alez vous”, which means “How are you?”, and she pawed at me from under the house, then came to me.

Hi Peggy,
I believe this dream is very deep and full of symbolism and you may have a hard time following me, but I will try to take you through it as simply and easily as I can, lol. To make it easier for you I will reply within the context of your own words, giving you a different color then myself.

Please, please, please pray over this and seek wise council as I am actually going against the obvious in this interpretation. I just did not have peace in going the 'easy way', and this has taken on a whole new depth..............and it is definitely pretty deep, lol. Here we go!!
===============================================
You: I dreamed Richard & I went to our favorite biker bar of the past (The Iron Horse, or “The Horse”),Me: Horses are often symbolic for the office of the Apostle I believe this one is as it is also an 'iron' horse, iron is symbolic of 'power and strength' just as a horse is also symbolic of 'power and strength', bringing a double witness.

I also sense it is a play on words for a train (iron horse), as in 'training up others in ministry', as I believe an Apostle does.

I sense the bar is also a play on words (this is where I am going against the easy way in this interpretation) much like the iron horse was. It also reinforced my perception that this dream is speaking of your 'authority and power' in the office of the Apostle as the 'bar' can also refer to the legal profession which points to the Apostle as they are God's governors on earth.

That your husband was with you when you went to this 'bar' means the Lord (husband) is with you as you walk into this high calling.

You: I met a GF of mine out front, but it was set up where they had a DEEP and wide ditch that you had to cross to get from the street side to the bar side. Me: Ditches are traps or things that would ensnare you. Added to this you were at one time 'ensnared' by drinking. This reveals how the enemy has tried to bring temptations against you to block your forward motion of walking in the office of the Apostle. I sense your 'friend' was more a messenger of the enemy as she was directing you to sin, rather then godliness. Beware!

You:She was going to slide down in it and cross to the other side; I was NOT. She told me to go off to the left and climb some trees to get over to the other side. I said OK, knowing full well I was NOT going to climb trees to get there! I began walking to the left and finally wound up at a driveway. Me: That you did not follow her lead is wisdom as she would lead you to temptation and you know what thats about. This reveals you have a strong measure of discernment, heed well what you are sensing by the Spirit as you will need to be listening closely to His leading to by-step the traps of the enemy along your walk.

You:I walked up the driveway, and was at work (it didn't’t look anything like my real office), Me:Driveways indicate short, spiritual travel, or a time of short, forward motion in the Lord. I believe your 'job' is your service to the Lord and your 'boss' is the Lord Himself. That it looks so different is not surprising as you have not yet been aware of your call as an Apostle. You:and I was the only one there, though my boss had left me something to type.

Another GF of mine was there, and she told me she had been given me some Peach Schnapps for Christmas (this was the time of year it was in my dream), and to go inside the bar whenever I was ready and taste some. Me: Again this 'friend' is a messenger of the enemy as she would try to entrap or ensnare you. As you say you were once a drinker, and she is bringing temptation in the forum of alcohol. I believe this also points to your 'fruit'. If she can make you compromise your service to the Lord, it will affect your 'fruit'.

If I am remembering correctly I believe you once told me you don't celebrate Christmas anymore. It would seem then that Christmas is pointing to 'pagan tradition', in that this messenger gave you a 'gift', in an attempt to ensnare you or temp you. One direction you may want to be aware and focus on in prayer would be 'tradition' and legalism. I am sure as an Apostle you would come up against this often. How evil of her to offer you a 'taste', as usually a taste is all it takes to entrap someone once again into the sin they have left behind. Again I say beware!

You:She said as I walk in the door of the bar, it is to my right. Then she left and I began typing.
I had only gotten a little ways, and I noticed smoke coming from the back of my computer, Me: I believe this smoke is the presence or glory of the Lord sent to keep you seeking after HIM to a higher degree.

Notice your wisdom to shut down the computer and quickly seek your boss (Lord). Excellent!

You: so I quickly unplugged it and went looking for my bosses at the bar. I realized I didn’t have to go through the ditch, but had to walk quite a ways along the right side of the road to get to “The Horse”. Me: That you have an understanding that you no longer have to face the snares (ditch) of the enemy is wonderful. This shows in your service to the Lord you have grown in depth, wisdom and discernment. You can go directly to the Lord while by-passing all the traps the enemy would set for you. That it is a 'long walk' is not surprising either as with such a high calling, you must have a season of preparation. Glory \o/.

You: I walked into The Horse, and it was TOTALLY different! Me: I believe the difference in the 'bar' is because you now see with the eyes of the Apostle. You have matured and grown and are walking in a whole new level of authority and power.

You: They had a whole new team of bartenders (a bunch of them), none of which I knew, Me: I believe these 'bartenders' are those of like calling as you. The Lord is even now raising up the Apostolic movement, and these are those who are beginning to walk in their own high calling. You: so I knew they weren’t going to run me a tab, nor could I go look for my GF’s schnapps, so I just turned around and left. Me: This is all well and good that you were prevented from tasting the schnapps, as the Lord has separated you from all forms of temptation and you are now walking in the fullness of all the Lord has called you too. In that these ones of like calling prevented you, this reveals you are accountable to one another and this is of the Lord too. In essence they are keeping 'tabs' (another play on words, lol) on you. Accountability is biblical and much needed in my opinion.

You: Then I was back at work, and that’s all I can remember. Me: Your dream ends with you back in the office, or walking comfortably in service to the Lord in the 'office' of the Apostle.

I dreamed I was at work (I’ve worked for the same company for 12 years in May), but the office didn’t look like it really does. I had a temporary there helping me (that in itself is a dream… ha!), and she had her tiny infant son with her. There was a jigsaw puzzle on the desk that I had been working earlier. I went somewhere and came back, and she was bathing the baby in the sink. I was teasing her that he was so tiny, if she turned him catty-corner, he could stretch out and get comfortable. I found her a towel, then picked him up and dried and cuddled him for her. I went back into my area again shortly, and the puzzle pieces were all under the desk, and I asked her to please pick them up for me when she got a chance. Then I looked around, and my boss, Greg, had decorated the office for Christmas (we don’t celebrate Christmas on December 25^th any more, but semi-celebrate it the weekend before for my parents’ sake, but flatly refuse to put up a tree because of the verse that tells us not to do that)… bought and put up a big tree, wreaths, etc., for me. That’s all I can remember.

I do believe this dream is from the Lord and I sense HE is bringing revelation as to your 'office' or calling.

In that you leave the office and come back at the beginning of the dream, I believe indicates you have either walked away from the Lord in your past and come back or you have not always been comfortable with what He is asking of you. Yet in your coming back you show your love and adoration of the Lord in that you will follow Him wherever He would send you, even the uncomfortable, unfamiliar places.

There have been many elements to your ministry up til now (puzzle pieces) and you have been at ease with each of them (lightheartedness/teasing), but there has always been a part of you (temporary worker) who has had an understanding that the Lord was going to ask more of you then He has thus far. In you asking for the puzzle pieces to be brought forth (from under the desk) reveals a part of you is very much aware of what the Lord is calling you into and you have an understanding that the season (Christmas indicates a season and maybe even a timing tho you do not celebrate it as the world does) fast approaching to walk into this new 'office' He is calling you to.

Babies are symbolic of new ministries or the Lord 'birthing' something new in you, as this one is a son I sense the seeds have been planted for great things already. Because this baby was so tiny he could fit in a sink reveals you will start out small so as not to be overwhelmed, yet you will soon 'stretch out' and be much more 'comfortable' in the place He is leading you. Hallelujah!! \o/

The cleansing, purifying (bathing in the sink) and preparation have either been accomplished or soon will be as you came back into the room while the process was just being finished. Tho there have been struggles, you have handled them well and have moved forward in the Lord.

I also believe that as this baby was immersed in water, the Holy Spirit (water) is going to immerse this ministry/office/calling with Himself, His presence and God's glory!!

I sense you saying, "I found her a towel, then picked him up and dried and cuddled him for her." is very significant in pointing you to the direction of what the Lord is calling you to. From this dream and its symbolism I am wondering if it is somehow related to helping others find their own gifting and callings. Another meaning for Christmas could also be 'spiritual gifts' and as your boss is symbolic of the Lord and he is the one who decorated or is in essence pointing you to the direction of 'spiritual gifts' and even the 'giving of gifts' (laying on of hands, etc), you will be the only one who can confirm this, I am only saying what I am shown in the dream, but it really is a very awesome calling and much needed in the body of believers today.

Peggy, another thing I wanted to point out (and I loved seeing it here) is that as your 'boss' is symbolic of the Lord, his name 'Greg' is means 'watcher', whooohoooo, the Lord is ever watching over you and is directing you along your way. I love it!!

Please let me know if this did or did not bare witness within your own spirit.

I had some weird dreams last night, totally unrelated dreams, and I hadn’t been thinking about either issue, so I don’t know what made me dream them.

I dreamed my sister Dianne was visiting at our house (not really what our house looks like), and it was pouring outside. I looked out through the big glass windows, and there on the horizon was what appeared to be a gigantic sun. In my dream, I knew it was Planet X, and pointed it out to Dianne. The heat it radiated was strong, but not enough to burn us. I remember thinking that before long it was going to cause tremendous havoc on the earth!

I also dreamed that Carol called me and had a long conversation with me. Carol is the elderly woman that used to live on our property that died in January of this year. I remember thinking that I was going to ream out whoever it was that told me she had died, because apparently they had lied to me! :)

I don't know on what scope Peggy dreams, but what I am seeing here is how in these last days while God is pouring out revival and His Spirit upon all flesh (pouring rain in the dream) at the same time 'tremendous havoc' shall also reign upon the earth, both going on at the same time. She is being given a 'view' (window) of what comes upon not only the church (home), but also the earth (earth, lol).

Even the 'radiating heat' speaks of God as a 'consuming fire', as well as judgment upon the earth, both at the same time. She describes the planet as like a 'gigantic sun', also symbolizing the 'Son', both sides.

As she can see it so clearly from her window, we as the body of believers will 'see' (or be given clear revelation) as to what is taking place, nothing will be hidden from us. (clear glass)

I believe the second dream is the enemy coming to bring distraction, sow discord and deception as he sees that day approaching. I think it will even work in some cases, for those who are not grounded in the Lord, they will be easily distracted and deceived (Matt. 24:24).

Just as Peggy needs to check every word for truth so we as the believers on earth will need a discerning spirit, wisdom and be worshipers in Spirit and in Truth as even the very 'elect will be deceived', unless the Lord prevent it.
