Just posting a message that there is a large need for extra prayer in my own life right now.
If you believe in the Lord Jesus Christ please ask God to give me direction.
Thank the Lord. God will remain true to answer each prayer that is prayed according to His divine will.
God is so merciful.
I was reading from Daniel Chapter 4 this evening seeing the story about Nebuchadnezzar. That King thought he had the bull by the horns, so to speak. 
I’m reminded of that phrase of a man believing he has the bull by the horns when I think of Old King Neb.
King Nebuchadnezzar woke up one day declaring how wonderful the City of Babylon was and how he built the royal residence by his own power and might. He thought pretty highly of himself.
We might even ask ourselves how a man could be so proud of his own accomplishments the way King Neb. was. He had been warned in a dream that a time would come when he’d finally acknowledge that the Most High is sovereign over all the kingdoms of men. He was also warned or told about the way he’d live like an animal.
God is the Most High. God is the one who is in charge. God allows certain people to be placed where they are and he is able to take their position away in an instant. King Neb. lost his sanity until the Lord allowed his sanity to be restored to him.
God has ways that are higher than our ways. God’s ways are just. God is merciful. Old King Nebuchadnezzar finally did give true honor and glory to God. Nebuchadnezzar raised his eyes toward heaven speaking those words of honor to God and then his sanity was restored to him.
Everything God does is right and just. God does not make mistakes. It was good for me to be reminded of God’s mercy toward men this evening.
Have you ever felt as though you needed a special time to lift your eyes toward heaven to simply thank God that He is sovereign? Don’t delay in recalling how powerful your creator is. Always be prepared to say, “Our God reigns.”
Daniel 4:33- 37, “The same hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar: and he was driven from men, and did eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of heaven, till his hairs were grown like eagles’ feathers, and his nails like birds’ claws.34And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation:35And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou? 36At the same time my reason returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, mine honour and brightness returned unto me; and my counsellors and my lords sought unto me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent majesty was added unto me. 37Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase.”
I heard from Jodie. She did tell me something that has been confirmed by more than two witnesses.
She also shared some prayer requests with me.
I dreamed something about a friend last night. Jodie is a Christian friend of mine and she’s been my friend for decades.
I saw her face in the dream and it seemed as though she had a message she wanted to share with me.
Jodie, If you see this message know that I do not have access to your email address at this time. As soon as I am able to retrieve your email address I will contact you that way. I may find a way to give you a call today or sometime soon. Use the comments section to send me a message if you’d like to do that.
I know God’s Word says that in the last days He will pour out His Spirit on all mankind. Dreams and visions are used in both the Old and the New Testaments. The enemy likes to try to copy the things of God. The enemy of God is the author of confusion. When I get a dream that does not cause chaos or confusion I pray about it like Daniel and Joseph did. I ask God to reveal if there is any reason He had for allowing the dream to come my way.
I do not believe that all dreams are inspired by God. I’m not a follower of angels, dreams, signs, or visions. I just recognize that God may use dreams today like He did in the days of old.
Once I had a dream about a friend named Marie. Marie was in a dream telling me that her husband had died. I gave Marie a call and told her about the dream I had. Marie let me know that she had been praying we would somehow find a way to communicate again because she had no way of contacting me when I had moved. She went on to tell me that her husband had died and she did want me to know of her loss. By time I contacted her I could tell she had the peace that God gives us when a loved one passes on. I also began to learn that I should pray about dreams in case they are dreams that God allows to come our way.
I’ve been going through a lot of paperwork the past few weeks.
I found notes I wrote down about a dream I had several years ago.
It was very interesting to read about a wonderful dream where there was peace, joy, and patience among all the people in the dream. There was enough space, food, and provision for all the people in the dream. Animals that would normally be animals we’d be afraid to be too close to were not harming people in any way.
There was also a wonderful waterfall and or river very close to the area where we all lived in that dream.
I read my notes feeling as though it must have been some sort of reminder of things to come. My notes even mentioned that the dream made me feel as though it must have been a small sample of heaven to see the things seen in the dream.
With all the dreary things we read and hear about on a daily basis it’s great to stop and ponder of the fine and good things that God has in store for those who believe in Him.
This place isn’t our home. We are just passing through. We’re all like foreigners in a strange land while we walk on this old earth.
This earth is decaying. There are still places and things of beauty to be found but it is rare for all people to get times to enjoy the beauty that’s still here.
When we all get to heaven. When the final trumpet is sounded. When the Lord has separated the sheep from the goats the sheep will gather at the Shepherd’s feet enjoying sweet pasture. It will be a day of rejoicing.
No more sorrow will be found in heaven.
Do not grow weary in well doing, Saints of God. Do the things you know are right because you love the Lord and hate the evil. Obey the Lord and you will be blessed.
The pains we suffer or see as suffering this side of heaven will be forgotten when we enter into the special place He has prepared for those who believe.
Think on the fine good things of God. Ponder on the sweetness that will one day be yours. Your Redeemer lives!!!
Some dreams are truly strange and unusual.
I had one the other night that made me wonder and pray about it.
It was one of those oddball type dreams that had several themes within it.
Here are the thoughts that came forth after thinking and praying about the most recent dream:
The only thing My Word speaks of that would cause you to think of the turtle is his steady plodding. With steady plodding there shall be success. I do not want you to give up. I do not want you to think that the race is always won by the ones that appear to arrive quickly or by the ones that appear as if they have it all and know it all.
He who wins the race is the one that obeys me in all things.
Obedience is still far better than sacrifice. Sacrifice to me things I really care about. Remember the widows and the orphans. Do not have a part in tyranny. Do not cause anguish to come upon the soul of another. Speak words of love and peace. Share joy and happiness. Obey me by obeying my Word.
He who wins souls is wise. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Do not fear man. Man has no control over what shall become of you when life on this earth ends. Man does not even have as much control as many of them think they have.
God is truly in charge. God is in control of all things.
There was also a time during that dream when a lot of people were gathered together as if in the front area of a church. It seemed as though I was being told that going to the front of the church was a spot for receiving healing. The Scripture from Psalm 118:1 was also mentioned during that time.
There were so many good things shared at church this morning.
Beth and I went to church together. I told her it was very nice to have someone join me on the trip to church this day.
We visited a little church that seems to have a lot of wonderful people in it who have a sincere desire to worship the Lord & to share his love.
There were so many good things shared that it is hard for me to concentrate on just one thing.
One thing stood out to me a minute ago though when I was sending an email to a friend. I think I will share that thought here now.
The pastor spoke this morning about Jesus being led by the Spirit to be tempted by the devil.
When the pastor talked about Jesus being led by the Spirit to be tempted by the devil I thought about a dream I had several years ago. I remembered the dream and my response to that dream.
You see, in the dream I was led to walk back through a wilderness experience. I recall being taken into the wilderness and I remember not wanting to go there. Still I had to go there.
It wasn’t my first time walking in such a wilderness and I clearly remember not wanting to go there again. The experience was not a short little pleasant trip in the woods. It was an experience that would take me out of my comfort zone. It was a place of having to do without the pleasures I once knew when I left the wilderness at a previous time. No wonder I didn’t like that dream.
Today when I read about Jesus being led by the Spirit to be tempted by the devil I remembered that dream. I thought about how the pastor was right to point out to the congregation that Jesus was led to be involved with something none of us would enjoy doing.
All that was shared in church today gave me much to ponder on and pray about. May your pastor’s preaching spur you on to pray and seek God’s face about things as you hear the reading of God’s Word, too.

I had a dream recently that bothered me a bit — It’s as if it happened already –
I gave something away (something I have done often) to a man and his wife — (my reason for giving to the ones that had so much already is unknown to me) I gave them this something and it turned into a windfall of funds for them.
I recall seeing a castle like place/home. There was one window up high in the castle with the light on in that room. It seemed like they took what I gave them and they went into that room with what I gave to them. In that room is where they found that what I had given was of great value.
Then I recall feeling sad & distraught because they knew the gift came from me yet they seemed greedy when they found the great wealth that came to them because of the gift I had given them. They did not want to talk to me at all any longer. They did not want to share with me even though their wealth came to them because of me in a way. The light in their room then went out.
I looked in my right hand. I was holding a beautiful pure white cloth with pure white pearls attached to it. The pearls were attached strategically. I recall a square piece of cloth showing in my hands. The pearls were attached at each corner of that cloth. It is possible there was more to the cloth than I could see. I could clearly see it was all white and there were pearls on it.
The odd thing about the cloth getting in my possession was it was given to me as if a consolation for the fact that they took what I gave them as a gift. Even though the couple got financially wealthy because of my giving to them and even though they didn’t want to share any of their great financial wealth with me now that they were wealthy I was given the cloth. The beautiful white cloth with pearls didn’t appear to be the kind of wealth this world has to offer.
The woman was jealous that her husband gave me the cloth and pearls. Her greed was so strong. I wasn’t even sure how he got the pearls to me. It could have been that he had no choice in the matter as if he had to at least give me the white cloth and pearls.
Isn’t it funny that a woman would gain a great amount of wealth that this world has to offer and she would be so jealous over that piece of cloth with the pearls on it?
The husband’s motive was not clear. It did appear as though he suffered in acting a lot like his wife. They took from a widow and didn’t want to share when the widow’s gift had made them wealthy.
I thought there must be a reason that I have been given this dream. When I looked up possible meanings and symbols of the items in the dream I pondered and prayed some more. There will be more notes after some symbols are shared.
Pearls stand for wisdom. The value of wisdom is above the value of pearls.
Something squared is something with equal sides. The square cloth could be symbolism of another special gift. To rightly divide the Word of God is another good & Biblical thing to be a part of.
white Linen or cloth –> this symbolizes righteousness
Most people know that White is a symbol for clean, cleansing, purity, & righteousness.
Light stands for Jesus. Jesus is the light of the World.
The Word of God contains wisdom and messages from God.
The color black stands for darkness, sin, death, &/or separation from God.
*************
This dream seems to have plenty of symbolism in it. The man and his wife were in that castle/building. It is in that bldg. where they found out the gift I had given to him was of great worldly value. They were in a lighted room and it is possible that the whole bldg. was once lit in every room. But the only room I could see lit up lost it’s light when they got all that worldly wealth and their hearts had become greedy.
Whether the woman wanted me to have the cloth or not did not matter. The cloth was given to me and she was not allowed to take it away from me. I wasn’t sure how I got it in that dream. I knew the cloth with the pearls was all the man was giving back to me. They had their worldly wealth. They also had their greedy hearts that came to them after they got all their wealth.
When I see that white pearls and white cloth both symbolize something I would love to have I am blessed. White is for righteousness and purity. The pearl standing for wisdom is wonderful. The fact that I was given this cloth with many pearls on it is a good thing, I would think.
For the light to go out in that bldg. once the couple got their worldly wealth is so sad. No one wants to be without Jesus. No one wants to have great earthly wealth that leads them to a life full of darkness and death.
This couple may have had earthly riches but they lacked the light that comes from Jesus once they allowed greed to come into their hearts. The woman was so greedy. I recall a great degree of sadness over her greed. I also recall feeling so sad that the man would take from a widow and not share of his wealth even though the widow’s mite helped him succeed.
I feel as though the dream reminds me that I am blessed if I receive gifts of wisdom from God and that pure righteousness. I do not want the greediness in my life. I do not want to be in a tall castle/bldg. with the lights all gone from the rooms.
There are fairy tale castles where people talk of living happily ever after. There are castles used in spooky movies and horror movies symbolizing wickedness in them. Castles were filled with many rooms, high pillars, and could also be a symbol of worldly wealth because of the stature some people have if they own a castle.
The castle in this dream was dark and ended up having no light at all in it. I would not want to live in a place like that.
There may still be more for me to ponder on concerning this particular dream given to me in the past few days. It was given the week of Dec. 14, 2007.
Right now I am feeling blessed to recall that Wisdom from God is more important than the riches of this world. May God give me wisdom. May God meet my needs. May God bless me to walk in the light. May it be His good plan and will for me to share the Gospel/His Word as He leads me to do so by the power of His Holy Spirit. May He give me power having the Holy Spirit come upon me that I can be His witness.
If you are a prayer warrior or prayer partner please continue to pray with me as I seek God’s Word for wisdom. Wisdom from God is very valuable to me. I hope it has great value to my fellow Christians reading these newsletters. I pray you will all ask God for wisdom, too.
May I steer clear of and be free from greediness. It is also my desire to forgive those that act like the couple in the dream.
I have met several couples like the couple used in this dream. Those kind of people have their reward on earth but what will they lose because of it? May God grant them deliverance from evil and from this trick of the enemy. If they think about the fact that the love of money is the root of all evil maybe it will help people like that.
I just put these thoughts down without giving this writing any real organization. I may change it later. For now I am just putting my thoughts down.
I’ve stated before that I believe God has used dreams to show me things before. God used dreams in the Old and the New Testament to speak to people. Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
I’ll just share this dream here. I am not 100 % certain what it means to me except that I do want to focus on remembering that wisdom is far more valuable that rubies, pearls, and money.
My prayer right now is that God will give me wisdom and inspiration from Him on a regular basis. I need His help at all times.
I also pray I can receive wisdom when writing these messages on here. May God also grant me wisdom and help to rightly divide His Word.
Those who are led by the Spirit of God shall be called the children of God. ~ That thought is from the Bible
I woke up yesterday after having a short dream that seemed packed with meaning — after exploring what mountains and on the edge means I feel the dream was very positive indeed.
The Bible speaks of moving mountains as if the mountains are problems that need moved — In this dream I could see the mountains and the mountains were beautiful & I was amazed to see that my home (my place of safety and refuge) was on the edge — placed on top of the mountains. I was even amazed to realize my home was standing firm as if on a solid foundation even though I did not actually see the foundation. I just knew the home was standing firm even if it seemed like it was in an odd place (in this dream.)
Being on top is symbolism of victory or being successful. The obstacles faced will be things I have victory over.
I was at first afraid of what being on the edge could mean since I had always thought that being on the edge was living a wild life. I was so puzzled because I don’t really live on the edge and don’t lead a wild life. Then I looked up the meaning of being on the edge and found out that it was a confirmation to my being successful since I was on top of the ledge.
Looking back at the dream I recall my place of refuge/safety/my home was on top of the edge overlooking the mountains. It is as if I have a confirmation that I am to succeed or in some sense I have succeeded.
I am happy in my heart. I believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. I trust in God to lead, guide, direct, and protect me. What more is there needed in order to succeed?
God has used dreams in my life and I asked him to give me an interpretation of this dream if it was from him. I also think it’s great that God used our real life adventure of going to see the TN mountains to help me visualize those beautiful mountains in my dream. We were over a mile above sea level. The mountains are beautiful. I give thanks to God for the way He led my children to take me to the mountains this year. Thanks be to God. Thanks also to my children and grandchildren for making the event very special.
