A few weeks ago I had a short dream in which I was told my resume had been passed around and someone had decided to offer me a reserve commission as a Captain and a one year training course in med school. The course was in the capital, DC? Jerusalem? Heaven?
I plan to post what I learn when I have time.
I hadn’t applied for the position but thought it was a great opportunity and accepted enthusiastically. When I woke up I hoped I could telecommute to class from home in California. In the dream I was a young man, not the retirement age person who looks back at me in the mirror.
The first three ‘lessons’, two dreams and one word of knowledge, were very similar. The common theme was how important it was to bring the presence of God before trying to heal. This may be specific to me or generally applicable.
For those who don’t know the term, bringing the the presence is to invite and cultivate the strong sense of the presence of God. Worship music and quiet meditation work best for me. God is always there bring the presence is more about knocking down barriers within me.
The lessons also taught that the ‘how’ of the healing was much less important than the presence. Knowing and addressing details of the ailment weren’t as critical as I believed. God knows what is needed so I don’t always need to be aware.
The next lesson was specific to cancer and why it occurs. I’m a biologist and know all about carcinogens and oncogenes and such but this dream taught that the ultimate cause of cancer is the accumulation of darkness from the world. The ultimate cure was His light.
The dream was more about prevention than cure. Bring God’s light into our lives continually and cancer won’t happen. Bless our food, bless our bodies, bless our jobs and chores, bless our houses. His light will drive out the darkness and cancer won’t develop.
In last night& #39;s dream my healing group met and one of the people who wanted prayer had Covid. I told everyone to divide up and only those who weren’t afraid of the disease should be in his group. I would be in it because I believed I was immune. Everyone chose to stay.
At least two of us were considered high risk, over 65 with past health issues. I was in awe and humbled at their faith.
I believed I was immune because God had shown me a way to never get sick years before. I tried it and haven’t been ill since. https://mobile.twitter.com/STLLALIV/status/1170179580411277313">https://mobile.twitter.com/STLLALIV/...
But they believed they were protected without having ever seen. I thought “blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.”
Another dream: it was like a documentary about “The married to the sky” movement. It focused on one young woman, a famous actress, whose life had been utterly transformed. Essentially those in the movement gave themselves entirely to Jesus.
This was clearly in the future, Jesus lived/will live through them yet they were still themselves. Perfect health was one of the signs of being in the movement. Since joining her chronic ailments had disappeared.
A dream about & #39;the odds& #39; from a few years ago: At the time my daughter was trying unsuccessfully to have a baby. In the dream she was pregnant and I was talking to her husband. He was worried because of the high odds of complications.
I told him how the odds really work. "The odds are held in the hand of God. She doesn& #39;t have a percent chance of having complications. She is a unique individual, not part of the cohort the statistics were calculated from...
Westerners, including most believing Christians, worry a lot about the odds. They try to move the odds by changing life style, diets and habits. But often they fail to do the one thing most likely to change their odds, pray.
I know a lot about statistics, five quarters of stats in college, a patent using Non Markhov probability to create an expression vector for cloned proteins. I know my way around & #39;the odds& #39;. But we don& #39;t live in the world described in those stats.
Our world is not random, the odds are held in the hand of God who is waiting for us to ask. We have not because we ask not. Ask, ask and ask again. Don& #39;t diet before you ask God to help you lose wait. Don& #39;t exercise before you ask him to guide your steps.
Don& #39;t take an aspirin for your headache before you pray for healing, you can do both but put the first priority of the most effective source.
My daughter now has two healthy children. Her fertility issues & #39;somehow& #39; seemed to just disappear. What are the odds that a chromosome problem can simply just disappear? The odds are either 0 or 100%. And they are held by someone who loves us and is waiting for us to ask.
This thread is too long and hard to read. I will post other things that are relevant with the tag #dreams
