No but I automatically thought of the expression 'somethings brewing?'

What translation are you reading from?

The word headboard has an interesting definition... http://www.heartsongministry.com/dream_symbol_h.html

Just remember that the thief comes only to steal, kill and destroy (John 10:10) so try to think on the things that are true, noble, right, pure, lovely and admirable (Philippians 4:8).

Hi Daisychain,

Check out the thread below I found this very helpful
/t11592-dreams-are-biblical#73907

In Matthew 24:24 says 'If it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect...' emphasis if it were possible thank God for His mercies and protection.

1 Peter 5: 7 'Cast all your cares upon Him for He cares for you...'
Job 33 teaches us that He does answer us through dreams,
these are just my thoughts.

I had to post this as it is so relevant to some of my recent 'vision' manifestations. Mia I concur 'feelings' are so important in dreams and I will learn to pay attention to them.

I would like to share a few examples of what has been manifested;
I have been praying about my vocation/work situation and since Feb/2011 I have been having repeated dreams with the same theme.

I was seating in the back seat with my sister and a colleague was sat in the passengers seat. As the car was driving off I looked through the back window and I saw my car parked in what appeared as a school and the gates where about to close. I recall thinking/feeling why am I allowing someone else to drive me?

MANIFESTATION;
I did feel at one point that I was allowing my supervisor/therapist to dictate my next career move despite me feeling that I was more than capable of going in a completely different direction. I did allow her to drive me and this has made things a little uncomfortable for me.

Then I dreamed that my principal therapist gave me a dress to try on which I did and it was incredibly tight and uncomfortably. I later tried on a similar dress which fit perfectly.

MANIFESTATION;
I took my principal therapists advice despite not wanting to and boy am I feeling this discomfort because although her advice seemed constructive I listened to it and now I am currently experiencing the discomfort I felt in the dream, her advice had the complete opposite effect it led nowhere!

In another dream I asked one of the other therapists for a pair of sandals which looked really comfortable, instead she gave me an open toe pair which wasn't to my taste and I felt uncomfortable but it fit perfectly.

Then I had another dream where I had a dress on but it was a bit too tight on the calf so my mother decided to make adjustments to the dress at which point I was ready to see what I looked like in the mirror and it was perfect, I was ready to go on stage/perform...

Despite the discomfort I am currently feeling I'm sure that something good will happen in the end so lets watch and see. The funny thing in all of this is that I had these dreams way in advance and many more that seem to bring clarity in that I should have been trusting God to bring the blessing instead of taking 'mans' advice. It appeared sweet at the time but did not serve any purpose...

I will pay much more attention to my dreams especially because quite recently my feelings in my dreams are quite prophetic. Mia I believe that you referenced when Jesus predicted that Peter would deny Him Peter was convinced that he would not do such a thing but he later discovered that he did. I digress; I always believed that I stuck to my plans and if God said no or wait on a particular matter I would listen but the 'feelings' in my dreams have clearly shown me that it is not always the case so 'feelings' in dreams can be very prophetic indeed!

Nigerian!

Today I realised the importance of Habakkuk 2:1-3
I will stand at my watch and station myself on the ramparts; I will look to see what he will say to me, and what answer I am to give to this complaint.

Then the Lord replied: "Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it. For the revelation awaits an appointed time it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay."

I will only right down what I see from my dreams/visions rather than making any assumptions that way I will be totally clear about what God desires to communicate to me!

Thank you and many blessings

Hello everyone my name is Chioma but you can call me Chi for short. I have found this site a REAL blessing (thank you Mia for your insight)!
This morning I was contemplating whether God ever gave His servants a 'false' dream/vision? Would I be correct in saying no, but it may have come through presumption (Deut 18), through many cares (Ecc 5:3), is it true that God had warned His people not to listen to the false prophets who would lead them to follow after other gods? (Jermiah 23:31-32 & 29:8-9). God never lies right (Numbers 23:19) and does speak to us (Joel 2:28, Acts 2:17) but in the case of Saul, when Gods spirit departed He no longer spoke to Saul via a dream (1Samuel 28:19). God is sovereign and no matter how the enemy may try to hinder His plan what He says will come to fruition (Genesis 50:20).
