PROPHETIC INTERCESSION IN DREAMS

I noticed in my recent dreams, I had been praying and ministering to people and when bad things happened, I would immediately bind it in my dreams. I would also bind the enemy's plans after I woke up just in case I forgot to do it in my dreams. Nowadays my dreams are interactive, which means that I am somewhat conscious of what is happening and can participate in it. I was no longer passive in my dreams or being carried along with the flow of the dreams. I could 'will' the dream to take on the direction I wanted.

This morning I had a dream where I found myself in Hong Kong. It was like I was teleported there. I saw for my own eyes how bad the situation was in Hong Kong and my heart went out to the people there. So I bound the works of the enemy in that place and covered it with the blood of Jesus. When I woke up, I suddenly had this revelation that taking authority over a region for Jesus need not be limited to my waking hours.

 

Even in my dreams, God can still work out His redemptive plans through my prayers. He can still use me to pray against the enemy in my dreams. Wow! This was like a whole new level for me! This means that even when I dream, I can do warfare and take new grounds for God. Whatever I dreamt of, things really happened in the spiritual realm. When I experienced a breakthrough in my dreams, it would affect and change the course of my waking life. Isn't this amazing!

 

I still don't have control over what I dream about. It is God who is orchestrating it. But I can cooperate with Him be it in my waking hours or in my dream. I just avail myself for His use. This notion of taking authority over the enemy is not just limited to our consciousness, but also in our dreams. In fact, dreams are spiritual because we have no control over it and they are more real than things we see in our daily lives. Besides it is in the spiritual realm that battles are fought and won.

 

Mastery over our dreams just means that we have become more effective in prophetic prayers because we are not limited by our flesh in our dreams. Since dreams are supernatural, we are not affected by our natural senses. Not only that even if bad things happened in our dreams, we still have a chance to bind them and change the course of things in our waking lives. It is like a second chance. God is giving us advance notice to learn about the enemy's plans and to foil them before they get to manifest in the natural. In a way I realised that dreams could be a powerful spiritual weapon, just like speaking in tongues, worship or declaring God’s word.

 

I haven't fully grasped the life-changing effect of this revelation of doing warfare in dreams. But this is just the beginning. Yet I know this revelation is so powerful. A game-changer. The enemy must be cringing now. Not only is the Lord downloading blueprints and strategies but He is teaching us to do warfare in our dreams to secure the victory in the spiritual realm so that we would not be caught unawares in our waking time. The good thing is also possibly less warfare in our conscious life.
