Through dreams, your haters will see in you what you fail to see in yourself
Scripture say the following to us, “For God speaks again and again, though people do not recognize it. In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men, while they slumber on their beds. Then He opens the ears of men, and seals their instruction. That he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man” Job 33:14-16.
The above scripture has made it abundantly clear that God uses several means as it relates to communicating with us. However, for some reason we fail to recognize his attempts. Nevertheless, the scripture goes on to says that after exhausting whatever those others means of communication maybe towards us, he then resorts to speaking to us in our dreams. Based on the above scripture, I would like to take this specific teaching on dreams and their understanding to another level in an effort to provide more clarity and spiritual understanding as to how God will use the spiritual tools of dreams of our enemies to communicate to us what he’s done spiritually for us in regards to our enemies. at the same time, cause our enemies to see our victory over them in the spirit realm.
In Judges 7, God had instructing Gideon to prepare the men of Israel for war against their enemies the Medianites. Gideon started with a total of 32,000 men to fight against the almost innumerable Medianites. Long story short, via the instructions of God Gideon ended up with a total of 300 men to fight against the Medianites. Of course, like many of us Gideon was obvious worried as to how is it humanly possible to defeat their enemies with such a small portion of people. God understood Gideon’s fears and as a result instructed Gideon in Judges 7:9-11 to go by night into the camp of the Medianites to eves drop on what they were saying and as a result of what he was about to be exposed to, he would be strengthen and encouraged by their it. Amazingly, God said to Gideon in Judges 7:9 that he had “DELIVERED” the host of the Medianites into the hands of Gideon.
It is vitally important to stick a pin in this word “DELIVERED” simply because that word indicates something that occurred already. In this case God is clearly suggesting to Gideon that Israel has already won the war with the Medianites even though they have yet to fight. Things are about to get even more strange because God will use Israel’s enemies the Medianites to discuss a dream among themselves, whom Gideon would be privy in an attempt to prove to Gideon what has already occurred spiritually in term of Israel defeating the Medianites. Gideon crept up just as a Medianite was telling his companion about a dream. The man said:
“In my dream a loaf of barley bread came tumbling down into the Midianite camp. It hit a tent, turned it over, and knocked it flat!” His friend responded, “This can be nothing other than the sword of Gideon son of Joash, the Israelite. God has given the Midianites and the whole camp into his hands.” When Gideon heard the dream and its interpretation, he bowed down and worshiped. He returned to the camp of Israel and called out, “Get up! The LORD has given the Midianite camp into your hands.” Judges 7:13-15. Wow! Now isn’t that amazing? In an effort to relieve Gideon of his obvious fears God revealed through the dream and interpretation of the Medianites (Israel’s enemies) their future success over the Medianites. Therefore, dreams and their interpretations are not limited to Christians as the above text has clearly shown. Secondly, the dream which is spiritual like I have repeatedly mentioned in so many of my articles will reveal the mystery of our everyday issues or reveal what’s pending for physical manifestation. Thirdly, like I have also repeatedly stated, because all things visible and invisible has its origin in the spirit realm, God was able to declare to Gideon that Israel was already victorious prior to the physical war. Lastly, even though it was a good dream, Gideon didn’t just walk away feeling confident about the dream. Instead, the scripture said that after hearing the interpretation of the dream, Gideon Worshiped God.
I often say to you that if you experience a bad dream, you must upon waking from the dream, cancel and rebuke the dream via prayer. The reason being, whatever negative contents the dream revealed because the dream is spiritual the enemy is attempting to forge a covenant with the dreamer. This is one of the ways that negative dreams can manifest itself in the natural realm. The second way is by ignoring, dismissing or forgetting to rebuke a negative dream. In doing so, the dream will manifest by default. The spiritual law states that if we resist the devil we he must flee according to James 4:7. So, it stands to reason that if we do not resist him he will not flee. In Gideon’s positive dream, Gideon followed the same principle after hearing the dream that expressed Israel’s victory, it obviously being a positive dream and immediately agreed with God by worshiping him.
Please! As observed in this teaching, God will allow your haters to see in you what you cannot see in yourself. These same haters, God will reveal spiritual confirmations about you, which you’ve been either dismissing all along or fail to understand. Finally, God expects us to come in agreement with our positive dreams, just as we would cancel and rebuke our negative dreams.

Wow! Interesting read! Its a daily habit of mine to try and decipher my dreams, Morning Mety :peluk
Very interesting indeed.
For me music is a method that I find God uses to communicate in my dreams. Always it is with songs. Now I pay attention to the words of all the songs I hear and they always communicate to me exactly what I need to know at that time.
amen.
Good Evening Metty & JMG family. As always, very enlightening message. Amen!
