How Do I Hear God’s Voice? 12 — MORE ON VISIONS, DREAMS AND TRANCES 3
“And he said, “Hear my words: If there is a prophet among you, I the Lord make myself known to him in a vision; I speak with him in a dream. Not so with my servant Moses. He is faithful in all my house. With him I speak mouth to mouth, clearly, and not in riddles, and he beholds the form of the Lord. Why then were you not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?”
Numbers 12:6-8 (ESV)
Dreams are projected images and imaginary transactions or deep thoughts which engage the soul and the mind of a person while asleep. While a vision is an evocative impression.
Dreams often happen while a person is in his sleep. However, a vision may happen both in a sleep or while awake.
Vision is a relevational imprint of images in the mind of a person which articulates a hidden event or situation.
There are times when a vision and a dream may happen together.
“But there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets, and maketh known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these“ Daniel 2:28 (KJV).
The Prophet Daniel reveals here that Nebuchadnezzar on his bed had both a dream and a vision. There are times when people are not able to tell whether what they’ve had is a dream or a vision. Mainly because the vision they had happened while they were sleeping. These may be called a NIGHT VISION.
A night vision is not necessarily a vision you have at night. A night vision is a prophetic term for the kind of vision which happens between the time one is awake and asleep. This may happen within a second of time but in your mind it might have lasted for hours. Because the unseen realm transcends time.
Sometimes while you are coming out of a dream and about to be fully awake, your inner man captures another image or a scene and a spiritual experience. This may also be referred to as a night vision.
When you understand these prophetic experiences you will be able to have the right understanding and interpretation.
God uses these means to help you perceive an unseen phenomenon.
“And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known unto him in a vision, and will speak unto him in a dream.” Numbers 12:6 (KJV)
This wasn’t just an “Old Testament” experience:
Considering who Paul the apostle was before he was converted to Christ, it would have taken nothing less than a vision for Ananias to receive him.
God had to speak to Ananias through a vision:
“And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord. And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and enquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth” Acts 9:10-11 (KJV)
God still communicates through visions but ultimately through His word. Every vision must be consistent with the knowledge of His Word.
When you study the Scriptures, there was no vision received which contradicted the established counsel of the Lord.
What do you see?
Its foundation must be the Word.
Hallelujah!
Thank you Lord for the gift of your word!
What do you see?
Ha!!! I see the word of God.
I refuse to neglect the word of God for it is God’s voice to me.
Oh thank you Jesus
Interesting…
I take God’s word more serious
I don’t look into the shadows, I rather look into the word.
I Look through the lenses of the bible to judge what ever i see in dreams
that is how i can skip deception from the enemy
I shall not be steered towards visions and dreams only but the illumination of the Lord through His word.
I judge every dream or vision by the word of God.
I hear the voice of the Lord and I know the voice of the Lord,for His speaks to me through His word and as a sheep I know the voice of my good shepherd.
I stick and stay glued to the word of God
I grow deeply in the love of the scriptures daily
Wow!
Visions are God’s pictures or images inprinted in our hearts about certain situations. God communicates to us through the visions at certain times but no visions should contradict the Word.
Thank you Jesus
I stick to the word of God
The foundation of every vision must be the scriptures
I grow deeply in the love for the scriptures daily.
I give myself wholly to the scriptures.
I don’t give room for any deception, I stick to the word of God.
