Part 31
Dream Dialogue
Every symbol within a dream is important to understand. I have learnt through years of experience that these symbols are not the final interpretations but just tools to help you unlock the meaning of the dream.
A dog, in some dreams, is a symbol of a demonic spirit while in others in can symbolise an angelic helper. So when interpreting a dream, symbols are important but the key is application.
Application of the symbols is the key to dream interpretation. There are many books on symbols but they often apply them wrongly.
I remember one day a young lady said, "Man of God, yes you can interpret but you need to grow in your gifting."
She did not say it directly but I perceived it by the spirit. She gave me a book on dream interpretation and as I looked at it, I was surprised that although some of the symbols were true, most of them were applied negatively.
Symbols are key. But application is important. Every book you read on dreams is key to help you have deep insight in your dreams. But learn that dreams are a personal language between you and God.
I have noticed with each individual the Lord may use the same symbols and the same language in those symbols.
Let's look at a biblical dream interpretation together.
The Dream of the Baker
Gen 40 vs 16
"When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said unto Joseph, I also was in my dream, and, behold, I had three white baskets on my head:"
Did you notice when the Baker realised the interpretation of the Cup Bearer was good, he also wanted an interpretation? That's how we apply symbols we have read in books. We use them directly, but when interpreting, the key is the Spirit of God.
The Colour Chart can be a good example. It can have five (5) 5 meanings for one colour. When you depend on God for your interpretation, he shows you which one among the choices is yours and how to apply it to your situation.
The Baker's Dream
Gen 40 vs 16-19
16 When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said unto Joseph, I also was in my dream, and, behold, I had three white baskets on my head:
17 And in the uppermost basket there was of all manner of bakemeats for Pharaoh; and the birds did eat them out of the basket upon my head. note The interpretation
18 And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation thereof: The three baskets arethree days:
19 Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thy head from off thee, and shall hang thee on a tree; and the birds shall eat thy flesh from off thee.
The Baker had three white baskets and each basket spoke of a day in the dream of the Butler. Each branch symbolises a day as well. The baskets had bread meats inside and birds came and fed from the top basket. Some birds in a dream are demonic and they come as a symbol of the spirit of death. The bulter his brunches budded and it meant restoration and the baker the birds destroyed to show loose of life.
Each dream had different symbols for days. And the butler was to also die there would have been a symbol of a worm.
So when you look at a dream, each dream is important and the application is important.
