The dreams that I dream-27- A difference of opinion
One night in a dream, I saw
my wife and me sitting in our room talking about certain matters. Suddenly
through the open window, I see a dark woman running towards the front of our
house. Her hair is strewn around her head and she has a wicked laugh. I run to
the front room to check her out and as I enter the front room, she flings a
coiled thing into the front room through the open window. I feel it is a python
that she has thrown into the room, but then on checking I see that it is just a
small snake, which slithers away into a pile of newspaper under the cupboard.
Meanwhile my wife comes into
the front room and says, "I saw that wicked woman throw in a monkey. I
corrected her saying, "That was not a monkey, it was a snake that she
threw in."
But my wife was adamant. And
me too. We did not want to change our opinions. As the dream ended, we were
still arguing and finally both of us were unhappy that the other was not
willing to give in.
The next morning we prayed
about this matter in our family prayer. We realized it to be a satanic attack
and if we were not prayerful and vigilant, there was bound to be a problem.
Later that day, in the
evening, we (me and my wife) were talking about some family matters and soon
the talk became an argument. We were going to get deeper in the argument when
suddenly I remembered the dream that this was exactly what satan was trying to
acheive. I became quiet for a while and then told my wife that the Holy Spirit
had already hinted that there would be an attack by satan on our family life.
She understood what I said and we prayed to the Lord and finally everything was
fine.
The dark lady in the dream
was indicative of an evil spirit. When she threw a coiled thing into the room,
I thought it was a python (big problem) but in reality it was a small snake
(small problem) which just slithered away without causing harm (trivial matter
that subsides soon). My wife arguing that it was a monkey and me taking a stand
that it was a snake represented the difference of opinion that was to take
place.
If we heed the voice of the
Holy Spirit, and pray, surely many problems in our life can be averted and more
peace can prevail. All glory to Jesus.
