Dreams You Should Never Ignore as a Believer

Matthew 2:12-14

“And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way. And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him. When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:

Genesis 41:25 

“And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one: God hath shewed Pharaoh what he is about to do.”

MEANING

Dreams are one of the ways God communicates with people. Throughout the Bible, God warned, instructed, protected, promoted, and redirected His people through dreams. Many destinies were preserved because someone paid attention to his dream. Many disasters were avoided because someone took his dream seriously and prayed about it.

There are good dreams and there are bad dreams. Every dream carries a message. Some dreams bring peace, direction, joy, encouragement, warning, and divine instruction. Other dreams reveal battles, dangers, attacks, temptations, delays, and areas where prayer is urgently needed.

The challenge is that many people either ignore their dreams completely or become fearful of every dream they have. It is a blessing to dream as a believer whether bad or good dream. Through dreams, God may reveal what you need to know, what you need to avoid, who you need to pray for, and which direction you should take.

Dreams can expose hidden traps before you fall into them. They can reveal opportunities before they appear physically. They can uncover spiritual battles before they manifest in reality. They can reveal the person that you need to pray for at that moment.

As a believer, there are certain dreams you should never ignore, whether you naturally believe in dream interpretation or not. Ignoring an important dream may cause you to miss a divine instruction, a warning, a breakthrough, or an answer to prayer. Some dreams carry directions that can save a marriage, preserve a ministry, protect a family, or prevent a costly mistake.

A businessman dreamed that thieves were breaking into his warehouse, but he dismissed the dream as mere imagination, thinking that it will not come to pass A few weeks later, robbers actually broke into his warehouse and stole valuable goods. If the man had taken the dream seriously, pray to cancel it and beef up security measures, the loss might have been avoided.

Also a man dreamed about a road accident involving a family member. Instead of ignoring the dream, she began praying fervently and committing her family into God’s hands. A few days later, one of her relatives was involved in a serious accident but survived the incident without major injuries.

She later testified that she believed God had warned her in his dream beforehand so she could intercede for the person. That’s the power of dream and the importance of acting fast to warning dreams. God reveals revelation in order to redeem us from danger.

He warns us because He loves us. He instructs us because He cares for us. Therefore, every believer should learn how to recognize dreams that require immediate attention and prayer. Below are twenty (20) dreams that should never be ignored.
