Why Am I Always Chased Or Defeated In My Dreams

Time and time again, I would receive emails from folks that find it so confusing as to why they are always running from someone or something in their dreams.

Amazingly this question is more predominantly asked by Christians. The reasoning behind their inquiry is that if they're believers of Jesus Christ, then why is it that they're always being chased or defeated in their dreams and not the other way around. Well, Like I have mentioned in so many of my articles on dreams. Our dreams reveal revelations to the mysteries' root causes of what's happening in our everyday lives.

If you are experiencing dreams where you are always being defeated, failing at a particular task, being chased by animals, people or monsters, etc. Then your dreams could be revealing one of two of the following, if not both. The dream could be indicating a spirit of fear or showing you're spiritually weak.

You see, my friend, most folks are under the grand illusion that because they wear the title of Christians or attend church regularly. The devil and his agents are no match for them; of course, nothing can be further from the truth. Before I proceed with this revelation, let me say that Satan's greatest weapon against the human race outside of keeping us away from knowledge is to always cause us as humans to focus primarily on the natural things of this world as the source of our problems. At the same time, he runs unchallenged and unabated, manipulating us spiritually.

If you are always defeated, chased, or attacked in your dreams, your dreams reveal that you are weak spiritually! Let's see what scripture has to say about this, "If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small" Proverbs 24:10. As a reminder, your dreams reveal things from their origin, and the source of all things is spiritual. Therefore, seeing yourself in your dream indicates the spirit part of your being and not the physical you. Again, the material part of your being is asleep in a bed, chair, couch, etc.

On the other hand, whatever it is that's chasing or defeating you in your dreams, they are also spirits, more specifically evil spirits. Being spiritually weak would indicate that the dreamer is not feeding their spirit spiritual food, which is God's Holy Word. Do you recall what Jesus said about his words? He said, "The words (the word of God) that I speak, they are SPIRIT, AND THEY ARE LIFE," John 6:63. Another scripture that lends to this understanding when it said, "Man should not live by (physical) bread alone but by every word (spiritual food) that proceeded out of the mouth of God" Matthew 4:4.

In essence, whether it's written or preached, the word of God feeds the human spirit of those that would take the time to read or hear it. Many carry the title Christian, but they are spiritually malnourished. Some of the physical signs of a person who encounters such dreams would be that they rarely succeed in reality. For the Christian, they would always notice that non-believers accomplish more and achieve more than they do. Again these are tell-tale signs that the dreamer's spirit is depleted of spiritual food.

Consequently, for others that have such dreams but are not spiritually weak, then for them, their dream is revealing that they are either oppressed or possessed by the spirit of fear! In reality, such folks live unhealthy lives because they never really enjoy their lives because their lives are consumed by fear. Every time they speak, it's always in the tune of caution, be careful, or they're afraid to do this or that, etc. Amazingly, their dream, which is revealing fear, is also exposing some flaws in their Christianity. Again, let's review scripture or what I refer to as spiritual law to clarify my assertion. "The wicked flee when no man pursues him: but the righteous are bold as a lion" Proverbs 28:1. The second portion of the mentioned scripture clearly says that the "RIGHTEOUS" are "BOLD" as a lion. Well, we do know that to be bold is to be fearless. If the Christian dreamer considers themselves righteous, then why are they always running from and not boldly confronting and defeating whom or whatever is chasing them in their dreams. Is it that they are not as righteous as they claim. In fact, the first portion of that same scripture unequivocally says, the "WICKED FLEE even when no one is pursuing him."

 I strongly recommend for those that are weak in spiritual strength to please feed on the word of God. During my teachings, I usually suggest for those that do not like to read to purchase the bible on CD and reduce it to a low volume when you go to bed at night so that it can not only feed your spirit while you're asleep but also aid you in your dream warfare. For those of you that can identify with the spirit of fear making a mess of your life. I also suggest you do a two day fast asking God to destroy all known or unknown covenants that have been forged with the spirit of fear that would have taken place in either your childhood, a life-changing event in your adulthood, or via your dreams.

In any event, these dreams must be challenged, rebuked, and canceled whenever they occur.

Deeper Spiritual Insight Into Understanding The Realm Of Dreams

Scripture clearly says to us that while Wisdom is the principal thing, we are simultaneously advised that in our quest to get wisdom, we must simultaneously place the same efforts on getting UNDERSTANDING! Proverbs 4:7

Happy is the man that finds wisdom and the man that gets UNDERSTANDING!, Proverbs 3:13. Clearly, wisdom and understanding are the main components of revelatory insight. In fact, Proverbs 3:14-18 provides a wonderful description, comparison, and benefits of wisdom and understanding, which I strongly suggest you take the time to read.

Nevertheless, my post today will be focusing on the word "Understanding," and here is why. Spiritual law states that "Counsel in the heart (mind) of man is like deep waters, but a man of "UNDERSTANDING" will draw it out" Proverbs 20:5 To embrace the fullness of this law so that one would be willing to make it practical in their lives, we must firstly, seek the true meaning of the word understanding.

Understanding comes from the Hebrew word "Binah," which is defined as insight, intelligence, and prudence. Amazingly, in Proverbs 3:15-18, understanding is referred to as the female gender but even more telling, Isaiah 11:2 clearly describes Understanding as a spirit! Scripture says that Daniel had understanding in all VISIONS and DREAMS! Daniel 1:17. Therefore, I submit to you that Daniel always had a spirit of understanding. However, his sacrifice through fasting (Daniel 1:8-15) made it active in him.

Here is the reasoning behind the assertion I made regarding Daniel already being possessed with the spirit of understanding. In 1 Kings 3:5, it is said that God appeared to King Solomon in a dream and asked him what shall he give him. Surprisingly, king Solomon only asked God for wisdom, knowledge, and understanding to judge God's people. Now, for those of you that don't know, wisdom, knowledge, and understanding are indeed spirits, according to Isaiah 11:2. Now, here is where the story gets even more interesting. In 1 Kings 3:12, God himself categorically stated to king Solomon that He (God) had already "GIVEN" King Solomon's wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. Please help me here but isn't the word given the past tense of the word give? Thus, indicating that King Solomon was already equipped with what he was asking for. Now here is the kicker, just like with our brother Daniel. God originally visited king Solomon as a result of the great sacrifice to God, 2 Chronicles 1:6-7.

Let's take this a little deeper. Again, In Isaiah 11:2, we learn that counsel isn't just a word. Instead, it is referred to as the "spirit of counsel" With that said, back to Proverbs 20:5, says. "Counsel (The spirit of counsel) is in a man's heart, but a man of understanding (or one that possesses the spirit of understanding) knows how to activate it.

There is so much more that I can say on this which will reveal deeper revelations on the spirit of understanding. Nevertheless, I took this long route to simply say this and that is a true dream interpreter must primarily be accompanied by the spirit of understanding or possessed by it. The reason being stated in Proverbs 20:5, which clearly says that the spirit of counsel which is God's instructions given to us via our dreams (Job 33:14-16), is compared to being placed in deep waters (our hearts) BUT! Only a man who is aided by the spirit of understanding can draw or make sense of the counsel given to him by God.

Okay! Let's bring this baby home now; if you do not understand your dreams, this would suggest you do not understand the spiritual intelligence, prudence, or insight that God is or has provided to you via the spirit of counsel. Therefore, I recommend to you to fast and pray and ask God to give you the spirit of understanding so that you can begin to make sense of your dreams or the instructions/counsel he has and is giving to you concerning the matter of your life and by extension the life of others.

I will leave you with this to ponder on. Inviting the spirit of understanding into your life will be initiated through you listening to the word of God!  Here's the scriptural proof, "Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know to understand" Proverbs 4:1.

Dreaming Of The Dead And Generational Curses

If you are continually having dreams about dead people, especially of dead relatives. Then
more than likely, your dreams are revealing generational curses. These curses are either pending for your life or are actively operating in your life.

Your dead relatives that you observe in your dreams are, in fact, not your actual deceased relatives. Instead, they are familiar spirits or otherwise known as masquerading spirits. These spirits are the enforcers of generational curses. In layman's terms, these spirits are responsible for the evil spiritual agreements made by past family members. Unknowing to the dreamer, these familiar spirits are, in fact, forging covenants with them. Regrettably, whatever interaction the dreamer had with these spirits could pan out some undesired results in the future. Of course, this initiates the repetitive cycles of negative patterns of defeat and failure in their lives formally displayed in their deceased loved ones' lives.

I received an email from a recently married lady who had constant dreams of her deceased mother and a few other deceased relatives on her Mom's side of the family. Before interpreting her dream, I asked her to recall as much as possible some of the most common negative traits her deceased loved ones experienced while they were alive.

Immediately, she said that her Mom's side of the family always struggled financially, even the ones alive. She added that they were all educated people and very good at whatever they set out to do, but they were all limited in life for some reason. This lady ended her email by stating it is clear to her that her life is beginning to show signs of the same negative patterns and cycles her deceased and living loved ones have had and are currently experiencing.

I explained to this frustrated lady that her dreams revealed two crucial things. 1) Familiar spirits have been assigned to her life via generational curses, and 2) the cycle can only begin if she had any interaction with the familiar spirits that were pretending to be her deceased relatives in her dreams. She admitted that she has had several interactions in her dreams with Her deceased Mom because she loved and missed her Mom so much. Unfortunately for her, that was the moment the spiritual negative patterns and cycles that took place in her deceased loved one's life will now run their course in her life. Of course, this can be broken via prayer and fasting, but one must be aware of the implications that such dreams produce.

Most folks are totally unaware of these spiritual activities, mainly because they are committed to what is seen instead of the unseen. Of course, we are reminded in 1 Corinthians 4:18 of the following. "While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal." This scripture in and of itself clearly directs us to pay close attention to the spirit world as the real world or, better yet, the parent world of our natural world. Therefore, for a spirit to carry out its will in the natural world, it must achieve human approval for manifestation.

However, alongside his evil forces, Satan achieved our approval via our dreams that we usually toss to the side. We are completely unaware of its vital significance related to evil spirits striving to forge evil covenants to begin their negative patterns and negative cycles of defeat and failure. Make no mistake, the power behind all generational curses will always be rooted in "iniquity." Scripture clearly reveals to us the following concerning Iniquity, "I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me" Exodus 20:5. Iniquity, my friend, is just not sinning. Instead, Iniquity is defined as unremorseful, willful unrepentant sin. Again, Iniquity is the soil for generational curses. Familiar spirits seek the Iniquity in families' lives to enforce generational curses simply because they know that Iniquity gives them the legal right to execute it according to spiritual law. Scripture again informs us of the following, "Our fathers sinned, and now they're dead, and we (the living generation) are left to bear their iniquities" Lamentations 5:7.

Due to a lack of spiritual knowledge, folks volunteer unknowingly to participate in generational curses. If your Ancestors were involved in the practice of witchcraft, oppression, or the unremorseful breaking of the laws of God. Then the seeds of generational curses have been planted in your family bloodline. Nevertheless, even though your genealogy would have made you subject to a generational curse, you still have to agree to it, thus seeking that approval via familiar spirits in your dreams. These specific dreams of your deceased loved ones must be challenged and canceled via prayer and fasting.

On the other hand, if you had experienced similar dreams in the past and were ignorant of the consequences they carry. Then I strongly suggest that you engage in a fast (Holy Spirit leading, of course) with the sole intent of breaking evil covenants that you have unknowingly agreed to via interaction with deceased relatives in your dreams. You must retrieve as much scripture as possible regarding generational blessings to include in your prayers.

Spiritual laws level The Playing Field

It is easy to spread evil and unfairness to others, and it can be accomplished without detection.

However, even if others are unaware that you have caused their pain, loss, or disappointment, there are spiritual laws that will eventually address deceptive and malicious behavior. People often say, "Life isn't fair," or "Those who wrong others always seem to get away with it." In reality, life is fair when you consider the spiritual laws that govern it.

Certainly! Here's the rewritten text:

As a result, these statements are often made by people who feel that someone, including themselves, has been treated unfairly in a specific situation. They may not realize that whoever has wronged them will eventually experience a similar situation where they will be on the receiving end of the injustice they caused in the past. I believe that the more we study God's word, the clearer it becomes that prayer strategies such as "returning evil back to sender" are wrong on every level. As I have mentioned in many of my teachings concerning spiritual laws, laws are inherent. This means that penalties and rewards are incorporated into all spiritual laws. We are rewarded if we follow the rules and penalized if we don't.

Proverbs 11:31 says, "The righteous shall be recompensed in the earth, much more the wicked and the sinner." According to this spiritual law, righteous people will be compensated for the loss and suffering they've experienced. Amazingly, incorporated in this same law, it states that the wicked and the sinner will receive more than they originally served to others. In the following scriptures, you will see that we are not responsible for returning evil to those who have wronged us. Scripture is adamant about who that portfolio belongs to, and according to Scripture, vengeance belongs to God and Him only!

As a reminder, God said that His word can not return unto Him unfulfilled; instead, it will accomplish what it was sent out to do, Isaiah 55:10-11. In essence, when someone does wrong to others, they should prepare to be challenged, not particularly by the person; Instead, by God's word that has incorporated their penalty for the wrong they did. Let's observe the scriptures mentioned below that will reinforce this spiritual understanding.

"But he that does wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons." Colossians 3:25

"Whoever digs a pit will fall into it; if someone rolls a stone, it will roll back on them" Proverbs 26:27

"He made a pit, dug it, and fell into the ditch he made. His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own head" Psalm 7:15-16

"Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same" Job 4:8

"Woe unto the wicked! It shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him" Isaiah 3:11

I cannot say this enough. The scriptures mentioned above are indeed spiritual laws, basically prophesying the end of what will happen to those who distribute evil to others. Interestingly enough, these spiritual laws also point out to us why those who have confidence in their wrongdoings continue in their evil, and here is what it says:

"Because the sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil" (Eccl.8:11).

This post highlights the understanding that no one is above spiritual laws, and the result of what they have done to others will be predicated on how they executed the law. While they may not be punished immediately when they have done evil, or it may appear as if they're continuing in it, the spiritual law dictates that it is inevitable that judgment will be served according to the word of God.

Feeling overwhelmed

There are moments in our lives where it feels as if everything is coming at us all at once.

What can be even more frustrating is the fact that the solutions to our many problems are not equally as fast. Sad to say when these feelings of being overwhelmed overtake us the confusion and frustration that it brings, unfortunately, disables us in every area of our lives.

I have discovered that being overwhelmed, for the most part, is as a result of seeing future events from a negative view in advance of its happening and actually confessing the negative that we see. Just think about it for a moment, you are overwhelmed right now probably due to school fees not being paid as yet, high electricity bill, vehicle on the verge of breaking down, not to mention unexpected bills being presented to you and the list, of course, goes on.

Now, here is what we usually do, we place all of these problems together and say to ourselves "My God, every time you put one step forward, you have to take two back", "I only work to pay bills", "When will I ever enjoy life", "These people make me sick"... sounds familiar?

 The point I am attempting to make here my friend is that you are the one that has invited and fuel that spirit of being overwhelmed by the words you consistently speak. That's right! You are the one giving existence to this dislike feeling. Bottom line, YOUR WORDS ARE FORMING AND CREATING YOUR WORLD!

""For by your words you will be justified, and by your words, you will be condemned." Matthew  12:37.

"Death and life are in the power of the tongue; And they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof" Proverbs 18:21.

In the above scriptures, which are really spiritual laws, it's literally placing the creation of your world in your mouth. So every day is the manifestation of the consistent words you have spoken in the past. The truth is no one is doing this to you instead you're doing it to yourself.

Make a conscious effort in changing the way you think, and this will, in turn, change the way you speak. Begin by saying "I don't know how, but all my bills will be paid by the grace of God", "I will have no balance on my kids school fees", "The day is quickly approaching where I see myself having more than enough in the lacking areas of my life", "Things will get better", "My better days are ahead of me".

LET THIS DAY AND DAYS TO COME BE DAYS OF POSITIVE SPEAKING IN JESUS NAME!

God knows the best way

Obstacles, setback, delays and disappointments in life when viewed from a positive perspective, is
God's way of saying, whatever it is you're attempting to achieve can be done another way!

As creatures created by God to progress and advance in life, the enemy has mastered the art of delay and disappointment to hamper our God given ability to naturally advance.

I would like to say to someone today that your disappointment and frustration is due in part to your limited way of thinking. Yes! You have convinced yourself that your way of trying to attain success or whatever it is you desire to achieve, is the only way it can be done, when God has been whispering to you, "Try another way". As a reminder, insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and foolishly expecting a different result.

The word of the Lord to you my friend is, "Get up brush yourself off and try again, only this time try it ANOTHER WAY OR BETTER YET, TRY IT GOD'S WAY!

Managing your God given times and season

Time is advancing you to what you have been praying for. Please do not allow your created pressure, anxiety and impatience to cause you to judge God foolishly!

As a reminder, every purpose is governed by times and seasons, Eccl. 3:1. Therefore, it will make no difference how many times we ask God for a particular thing or how loud we scream for it in prayer. The law of "Time and seasons" is the one governing the time and season it will be revealed. All of us have an assigned amount of time to exist on the earth and with in that time frame, there are certain things that all of us will experience.

However, prior to any of the things that I'm about to mention can take place we must exist first, pretty obvious right? This is why Eccl 3:2, starts off by saying, "There is a time to be born and a time to die". In other words we are assigned a certain period of time and season in the earth, which is from the time of birth to the time of death to accomplish a specific purpose. However the fulfilling of whatever that purpose is will require the following experiences that no matter what your purpose maybe, you will encounter and have to deal with the following:

a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace, Eccl. 3:2-8.

I said all of that to get to this very simple but very much overlooked point and that is absolutely nothing is forever. The reality of this post is very much real to those that have recently lost folks that were quite dear to them. It is during such times of (death) that we quickly realize that all of us and all things will one day be referred to in the past tense...... Meaning its time has expired!

Scripture further tells us that, "A wise man's heart discerneth both time and judgment, Eccl 8:5. Simply put, a man who understands the law of "time and seasons" understands that along with time being assigned to everything, there is also a judgement that accompanies it. We are accountable for the time given to our purpose. This is why we are commanded to Redeeming the time, because the days are evil, Eph5:16.

I want to say to someone, stop wasting time and focus on doing what God has placed you in the earth to do, while using the scriptural tools of Eccl 3:2-8 to accomplish your purpose in the earth. The day will come just like those that have gone before us, when you and I will have to stand before the supreme judge of time and give an account of how we maximize and managed our allotted time in the earth.
