Basic Rules And Principles That Governs Our Dreams

God's original plan for man in terms of man's position in the earth would be found in Genesis 1:28, "And God blessed them, and God said unto them, be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth".

Based on the above scripture, several things are made crystal clear regarding God's original intent for mankind. Primarily, we were created to advance, increase, multiply, and overpower whatever challenges our progress. Secondly, God gave man and not spirits dominion over the earth.

On the other hand, Satan's plan for man is quite the opposite. Scripture says the following, "The thief (which is Satan) comes only, to steal, kill, and destroy" John 10:10. These are crucial points to stick a pin in when it comes to our dreams. These principles set the bases of all dreams, meaning that despite how complicated or straightforward a dream may present itself, the above principles should always be our GPS as to how we navigate to the accurate interpretation of our dreams.

So, to put it in simple terms, the purpose of our dreams are:

a) To reveal to us what's pending in the unseen world (the spirit world) or to reveal to us the root causes of the mysteries surrounding our lives.

b) For spirit beings to covertly or overtly forge covenants to manifest their purpose/will in our natural world

With that said, the first thing we should do when attempting to understand our dreams is to decipher if our dream is from God or Satan. We calculate this by using Genesis 1:28 and John 10:10. If the dream is from God, then the contents of the dream will inevitably be about advancing, promoting, replenishing, etc., or it will be about things that will benefit us. On the other hand, if the dream is consistent with things being taken from us, stuff going missing, death, destruction, etc., clearly, such a dream is from the kingdom of darkness.

In either case, because God has given man and not spirits dominion in and of the earth, spirits cannot just do what they want to do whenever they desire to do in the earth. Instead, human assistance, but more importantly human approval, be it covertly or overtly is a MUST to manifest the will of spirit beings in the earth. Surprisingly this also includes God. Now I know that many of you are challenged by the fact that I said that God needs man approval or permission to operate in the earth, and I am sure your reasoning would be God needs no one's permission to operate anywhere simply because he's God. Well, aside from the scriptures that clearly indicate that the earth and its responsibility was given to man, Psalm 115:16 and that God gave man dominion or rule over the affairs of the earth, Genesis 1:26,28, every book of the Bible reveals this principle.

In fact, if one were to review scripture carefully, whatever God did on the earth, it was never outside the consultation of man. For example, I am sure you'll agree that God is all-powerful, right? So why did he use Moses to free the Hebrew people from Egyptian bondage? Couldn't he, as God, just kill Pharaoh and his armies and took his people from Egyptian bondage straight to the promised land? Why did God not kick down the walls of Jericho but instead used Joshua to follow a set of instructions to have the walls of Jericho destroyed? These are but minimal examples compared to the many examples demonstrating God's laws and principles of man ruling the earth, and for any spirit beings to participate in earth's affairs, the ultimate approval or cooperation must be approved by man.

Satan, on the other hand, understands his limitations and restrictions as it relates to his performance on the earth. Well, we need not go any further that Genesis 3. Satan knew quite well that for him to carry out his evil objectives in the earth he MUST again secure man's approval; in Genesis 3 he manipulates Eve by encouraging her to disobey God's command as it relates to the forbidden tree they were not to eat from and obey his suggestion, which legally opens the door for him. Well, we all know what happened as a result of that incident, right?

So, in essence, spirits would either influence, persuade, encourage, tempt, entice or lure human beings to advance their will or objective on the earth through securing covenants between themselves and human beings. This is how things manifest from the spirit realm to our natural world. So, about our dreams, if your dream is consumed with killing, stealing, or destroying, then make no mistake that the contents of such dreams are revealing evil spirits hoping to get you to agree to such a dream to secure an evil covenant between you and the evil spirit so that they can legally manifest their malicious intent in your life and by extension in the earth. If the dreamer does not challenge such events in his dreams or cancel and rebuke the dream upon waking, then the manifestation of that evil covenant will prevail in reality.

The reality is, upon waking from a dream, you must first ask yourself, what covenant did I agree to? This is the primary reason why it is a must that you remember your dreams because you've either knowingly or unknowingly forged a covenant in your dream that may pan out something very terrible for you later.

A simple prayer to pray upon waking from a dream that either you didn't understand, or you just don't remember is: "God in the name of your son Jesus Christ, if whatever I have dreamed was of you, then I come incomplete agreement with your plans for my life. However, if my dream was not from you then I cancel, rebuke, and renounce all evil covenants that may have been covertly secured in my dream in the name of your son Jesus Christ!

Spiritual warfare against the spirit of procrastination

  One of the fundamental principles of spiritual warfare is the law of resistance. This law indicates a few things, and they are. 1) We must resist whatever is challenging us spiritually. 2) If we do not oppose, then whatever is challenging us will eventually overcome us. 3) By not resisting what is challenging us, then by default, we are giving it the right to remain and rule in our lives. Finally, 4) By activating the law of spiritual resistance, whatever is resisting us MUST FLEE!

This spiritual law of resistance says, "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you" James 4:7. The word submit means to give over or yield to the power or authority. So to be successful in the second part of the spiritual principle of James 4:7. We must first relinquish our way of doing things and yield to the power and authority of God to withstand the spiritual forces that are resisting us.

So, in essence, we don't resist our spiritual opponents by saying, "Go away, devil," or saying, "leave me alone, Satan." Instead, it's done by submitting to God. It indicates that we must take his word and resist the devil and his agents by speaking it against them. To suggest otherwise would suggest that we are doing it our way, and scripture clearly says that there is a way that may seem right to us, but at the end of that way, we are guaranteed failure and destruction, Proverbs 16:25 and Proverbs 12:14.

I mentioned all of that to get to what the Lord laid on my heart for someone today challenged by "PROCRASTINATION." The enemy of your soul has been having a field day with your life by endorsing that you never ever complete the things you've started or get to work on something you know you need to be doing. You either become exhausted, sleepy, frustrated or naturally lose the desire to complete assigned or essential tasks. Your life has become an utter mess due to unfinished or things you have yet to address. The spirit of procrastination has overwhelmed you with the desire and pleasure of putting it off for another time, and you know just as well as I do that task will never get done.

The Lord told you that to overcome this nagging and frustrating spirit, you must initiate the process by submitting to God. He said also remind you that we are co-laborers with him, 1 Corinthians 3:9 and that you are guaranteed failure if you continue to fight this stubborn spirit on your own.

From this moment forward, you must speak the word of God against the spirit of procrastination. For example, "Spirit of procrastination, I can and will do all things through Christ who strengthens me, Philippians 4:13" "Spirit of procrastination there is a greater force in me than any evil force attempting to influence me" 1 John 4:4. "Spirit of procrastination, the word of God, says, "We must work the works of him who sent us while it is day; night is coming when no one can work" John 9:4. "Spirit of procrastination the word of God says that whatever my hand finds to do, do it with your might" Eccl. 9:10. 

"Spirit of procrastination, I reject your subtle influence that would usually cause me to neglect what I should be doing. I decree and declare to you that according to the word of God, Jesus Christ has Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross, there for your subtle evil influence WILL NOT WORK TODAY!" Colossians 2:14. "Spirits of procrastination and confusion I agree with the word against you that says all things should be done decently and in order" 1 Corinthians 14:40. "Spirit of procrastination I will obey God's word that says, do not say to your neighbor, "Go, and come again, tomorrow I will give it"—when you have it with you" Proverbs 3:28.

Friends, this is spiritual warfare against the spirit of procrastination. God will deliver you if you co-labor with him by decreeing his word. As a reminder, the process of deliverance begins and ends with KNOWLEDGE! Proverbs 11:9

The Error Of Misinterpreting Your Dreams

Daily, I am bombarded by any number of folks seeking insight into their dreams. In fact, most of them actually never took their dreams seriously until either they came across something I wrote concerning dreams, or there was some dream that was so frightening, they desperately needed insight into it.

I've recently had the unfortunate experience of interpreting someone's dream after the dream's events had manifested in this person's life. Amazingly, this person said that they decide not to call me when they had the dream because they interpreted the dream to be a good dream. They assumed that God was showing them through the dream that even though they were experiencing complications at the time, everything was going to work out fine.

Anyway, I got this call, in which I was asked to interpret a dream. Now the person that called me I knew to be pregnant at the time. Anyway, the lady said that this dream she wanted me to interpret occurred while she was in the hospital, and the reason was due to some complications she was having with her baby. She went on to say that in her dream, she dreamed that her father came to visit her. While he was standing by her bedside, she said that a nurse also approached her bedside, asking her if she was ready. The lady asked the nurse what she was talking about because her doctor gave her strict orders to stay in bed. The nurse insisted that the Doctor said she must exercise. The lady said that all of a sudden, another nurse entered the room with what seems to be a premature baby and the baby was unusually small. In fact, the baby was so tiny it was lying in the palm of the nurse’s hand. The lady then asked the nurse whose baby was it, which the nurse replied that it was her baby. The lady said she was very excited and that the nurse rests the baby on her chest; the dream ended.

This lady insisted that I help her with her dream and that she really needed clarity because, as far as she was concerned at that time that it was a good dream. Well, I paused for a while and told the lady that this was certainly not a good dream. She immediately asked why I would conclude that it was not a good dream. I further explained that the setting of the dream, along with its characters, is all wrong and that she was overlooking the obvious signs of the dream that made it a bad dream. Firstly, in reality, your doctors have ordered you to stay in bed due to your complications, but the nurse insists that you exercise in your dream. Secondly, in reality, you're in the hospital because you're experiencing difficulty with your pregnancy, but yet a "nurse" shows up with what she claims is your premature baby in her hand. Firstly, you should have asked yourself, How is it you were not aware you gave birth. Secondly, where was the doctor in all of this? Thirdly, why weren't you tired from the supposed delivery and finally who doctor gives orders to exercises after having a baby?

I emphasized that the entire dream is spiritual, revealing what was about to take place or pending with the not so obvious being shown to her. I told her that the women in her dream were witches and the man that appeared to be her father was a familiar spirit pretending to be her father, again only to achieve her trust and confidence in her dream. The witches had stolen her baby, which automatically meant she would lose the baby in reality if she doesn’t rebuke and cancel the dream. The mere fact that she'd accepted the baby in the dream from the nurse spiritually indicated that she agreed to everything that she was manipulated into believing. As a reminder, for things to manifest from the spirit realm to our natural realm, there must be an agreement between spiritual and natural. Unfortunately, in the kingdom of darkness, securing such agreements are, for the most part, covert and deceptive.

All of a sudden, I heard a piercing scream on the other end of the phone line, saying, "I lost my baby." The lady then revealed that she had lost her baby and that she had miscarried while she was in the hospital and that the dream was revealed to her the night leading to her miscarriage. She further added that she was convinced that it was a good dream and that God gave her the dream to confirm that everything would work out fine despite her complications. She said that she was so upset with God after the miscarriage that she didn't want to hear anything about the bible, prayer, or scriptures about all things working together for good.

Friends, this is just another case of a lack of spiritual knowledge that prevented this lady from acting upon the spiritual intelligence being revealed in her dream. While God had revealed to this lady what the enemy, along with his human agents, had done in the spirit realm, she had the opportunity of canceling and rebuking it to prevent manifestation in the natural realm. I advised this lady to pray specifically against the spirit of witchcraft, miscarriage, and demonic manipulation. I told her that she must retrieve scriptures from the bible that speak against witchcraft works and include these scriptures in her prayers along with scriptural promises about our seed. Still, before all of this, she must cover herself and her family with the whole armor of God, simply because the scriptures said that it is this armor that will cause us to stand against the wiles of the devil, Ephesians 6:11,13.

A Deeper Spiritual Understanding Of Dreaming Of The Dead

 I was in a recent conversation with a friend facing severe spiritual challenges. Fortunately for my friend, she knew what the attack was about, and more importantly, she learned from whom the attacks were coming from.

Based on my teachings, my friend added that she was fully aware that a fast was necessary, so she decided to engage in a dry fast. For those unaware of what a dry fast is, a dry fast is three days or 72 consecutive hours without food or water. Interestingly enough, she had an extraordinary dream immediately after her fast had successfully ended.

Here is what she dreamed. "Minister Ewing, I had this strange dream the night after I ended my dry fast. In my dream, I saw this gentleman I knew was dead. This deceased person in my dream approached me and said he had a set of keys for me. I stared at him in amazement, not so much that I knew he was deceased, but what the set of keys was for. He then looked me square in the eye and said that the keys were for his store and that he wanted me to watch his store for him. Minister Ewing, I must admit that while it all seems strange in the dream, I was happy about accepting his offer to watch over his store". She said the entire scene in the dream was dark, but not to the extent she could not see.

Now, to add a little more to this story, the original reason why my friend contacted me was for the mere fact that she was confused that even though she'd completed the dry fast successfully, absolutely nothing about her situation seemed to have changed. In fact, she said that she felt somewhat discouraged and depressed because physically, the spiritual attack against her was now manifesting in her body and presenting unique challenges in her marriage.

Although she was narrating this story to me. I was in awe, holding my mobile phone in my right hand, simultaneously steering at it and wondering if she knew what she was saying to me and what she had allowed and ignorantly agreed to spiritually. At this point, I could not focus nor mentally digest what she was saying to me any further. So I interrupted her and asked her, "Are you aware of what you did in your dream?" She said, "What do you mean what I did?" I told her that I was surprised she didn't cancel and rebuke her dream based on the contents of her dream and the many discussions we've had regarding dreaming of deceased folks and the spiritual manipulation they represent. At this point, she indeed came to an understanding of what she did.

Here it is, my friend made the wise decision of going on a 3-day dry fast to break demonic covenants that were causing problems to erupt in her life to the extent it affected her health. Only to be manipulated in her dream by a familiar spirit or otherwise known as a masquerading spirit pretending to be someone deceased that she's familiar with, of course, to win her trust. This masquerading spirit pretending to be her dead friend was the spirit she initially challenged during the dry fast. However, she was manipulated into re-establishing the covenant with this spirit by accepting the keys from this spirit and following additional instructions in the dream. As a reminder, any contact with a deceased person in your dream symbolizes agreeing or covenanting with whatever it is that that spirit truly represents.

Therefore, if the masquerading spirit pretending to be her deceased friend is a spirit of infirmity (sickness), she unknowingly agreed when she accepted the keys and everything else, representing an agreement. As a result, she's now in the same position she initially went on the fast to rid herself of this. Unfortunately, it is a classic example of not being alert to the devil's devices. Scripture cautions us regarding the following, "Be sober, be vigilant; because of your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour" 1 Peter 5:8.

Two critical statements should be noted in the above scripture. We must be sober and vigilant, so we must always be spiritually alert to Satan's traps. More importantly, the scripture clearly says that our adversary, the devil, is walking about "LIKE A ROARING LION," seeking whom he may devour. So, in essence, our adversary is not a roaring lion. Instead, he pretends to be a roaring lion. Doesn't this mirror his behavior in our dreams, where he imitates or impersonates deceased folks to deceive and manipulate the dreamer to sow his evil seeds?

While we can all conclude that our adversary is extraordinarily cunning and legalistic, his behavior is governed by spiritual laws to which we must pay attention. Hence, he preys on his victims' spiritual ignorance to secure his evil seeds for a later harvest. Satan and his human agents (witches & warlocks) invade and manipulate us in our dreams via the following spiritual law, "But while men slept his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way" Mathew 13:25. Again, the masquerading spirit secured the evil covenant with my friend in her dream and went his way. Now, my friend has to begin the process repeatedly to break the evil covenant she ignorantly agreed to in her dream.

I will say repeatedly that God has outfitted all human beings with the tool of dreaming. The idea is to allow the dreamer to peer into the spiritual world. This will not only enable the dreamer to observe pending matters but also to strategize. Please pay special attention to your dreams.

The God kind of peace

The peace that comes from God does not necessarily mean that all your needs have been met, trouble has ceased and everything is in its place in your life. Instead, the God kind of peace, is your decision to acknowledge God in all that's going on and as a result this will generate that peace from him that passes all understanding in the midst of your challenges.

The scripture says, God will keep us in perfect peace (the word perfect in the text means complete) "IF" our minds are stayed or focused on him, Isaiah 26:3. The word "if" which is a conjunction in the above scripture is clearly indicating that the peace of God is always available but it will depend on us to be focus on God and not what's going on around us in order to achieve this peace.

Say to yourself right now, "Lord you know that it is hard for me to keep my mind on you due to the overwhelming troubles coming at me and the many responsibilities that has encompassed me, aside from the enemies that has set themselves against me, Therefore I am asking you to assist me to remain focus on you and to see you in all that is happening around me all in an effort for me to be a candidate for your peace that passes all understanding that I so eagerly desire".

"Lord you've said in your word that "ALL" things work together for good to those that love you and to those that are called according to your will, Lord I believe I have met your qualifications in this regard, so therefore I expect that these seemingly impossible and overwhelming matters will work out for my good in the name of your son and my savior Jesus Christ. Amen!

There Is A Spiritual Discipline and Protocol To Our Divine Seasons

  On the way home today, I observed a few mango trees that were budding already, indicating that mango season is approaching.

What caught my attention was that all the mango trees I saw today were in different areas. In fact, they were miles apart from each other. The point I am attempting to get at here is this. Even though they are nowhere near each other, each mango tree is aware of its season and has already begun producing in its season.

The only thing that was required from these trees was to weather the elements and allow the ground in which they are planted to supply the nutrients so that when their season arrives, it will be automatic for these trees to produce the mango fruit.

As human beings, God has programmed us to experience certain seasons. However, just like the mango tree, our seasons are designed to produce certain fruits if we weather the elements (life challenges) and stay grounded in the word of God.

Psalm 1:2-3 provides a classic illustration: "And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth HIS FRUIT IN HIS SEASON; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he does shall prosper."

According to the above scripture, producing our fruit in the seasons assigned to us must follow a spiritual discipline and protocol. The protocol starts by insisting that we meditate on the scriptures day and night. Not sometimes, not only when troubles arise, not only when we're asked by a Pastor or religious leader to read it. Instead, we must take the initiative and discipline to meditate on the Holy Bible DAY & NIGHT! Following scripture's protocol, commands, and precepts literally prepares us for our assigned seasons.

The result of this discipline, according to scripture, has compared us to a tree planted by the rivers of water. In other words, meditating on the word DAY & NIGHT also becomes the source we need to maintain and sustain us until our specific season comes.

The scripture further adds that "he shall bring forth "HIS FRUIT IN HIS SEASON." Therefore, according to this scripture, I am led to believe that NOT EVERYONE EXPERIENCES THE SAME SEASON AT THE SAME TIME! Each person during their life span has particular seasons assigned to them by God, and whatever this person does in their season according to the will of God MUST PROSPER, simply because it is their SEASON TO PROSPER! If folks understand that this scripture clearly states that everyone has seasons assigned to them when they follow the spiritual discipline and protocol of Psalm 1. Then, they would not allow the spirit of jealousy to invade their life to derail them from focusing on the word of God that's preparing them for their season. Unfortunately, many will miss their season because they were too busy hating on the prospering seasons of others.

I don't know who is reading this post right now, but what I do know is that God has inspired me via his Holy Spirit this morning to tell you that your failure to focus on God's word, as opposed to criticizing the prospering seasons of others, has caused you to miss your seasons. In fact, he said to tell you that your lack of spiritual discipline in not meditating on his word day and night and, by extension, being a doer of His word has caused you to seek shortcuts to get to your seasons. You've allowed so-called prophets to mislead you with their false prophecies, asking you to sow financial seeds that was supposed to catapult you into your season. Of course, their false claims and gimmicks have yet to come to pass and never will because they directly violate the spiritual laws concerning our seasons assigned by God.

God said to observe those you know who are experiencing their seasons. The common denominator among them is their commitment to his word. God said to tell you that it is his word that conditions you for the seasons he's designed for you. To reject or ignore his command to meditate on his word day and night is equivalent to a fruit tree pulling up its roots, deciding to reside in a desert place, and foolishly anticipating fruit when the season for it to produce arrives.

The word of the Lord to whoever reads this: discipline yourself by meditating on the scriptures day and night and making it applicable to your life. Through this process, the spirit of the Lord will realign you to your divine seasons and cause things to line up for you. Dismiss the snake oil salesmen of Satan and commit to doing it God's way going forward.

Self imposed curses

A self-imposed curse is where one speaks evil or negativity to their own demise. In reality statements such as "I am so broke", "Things never work out for me", "I am sick and tired" etc. are curses being brought on by oneself.

A self-imposed curse does two things, and they are:

1. Place the individual in a spiritual cage, meaning, they can see freedom and opportunities but they cannot participate in them.

2. It holds you back from arriving at your divine appointments. Meaning you've spoken against the will and purposes of God for your life. Such as, "They always pass me when it's promotion time" "Look like only things happen for the white man".

As you can see it was your own words against yourself that has placed you in the backward, delayed position you've found yourself in. Opportunities has fled you as a result of the power of your words against yourself.

Let's look at the spiritual laws that governs this common behavior:

"A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth" Proverbs 13:2

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

"Thou art snared (trapped) with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken (held captive) with the words of thy mouth" Proverbs 6:2.

My people are foolishly being destroyed because they insist on avoiding and rejecting available knowledge, Hosea 4:6
