‘We both had dreams,’ they answered, ‘but there is no one to interpret them.’
Then Joseph said to them, ‘Do not interpretations belong to God? Tell me your dreams.’
Genesis 40:8 (NIV)

EATING

eating web.png

Regularly eating in dreams is a negative thing and is related to demonic activity. 
There are several types of dreams.

ORDINARY DREAMS comes through multiple thoughts and exposure. For example, when you watch horror movies before going to bed it is possible to see all manner of things. 
CHEMICAL DREAMS, caused by drugs may result in you having nightmares. For example, when you take blood pressure medication, especially beta blockers, anti-depressant, anti-histamines etc.
SOULISH DREAMS are dreams that mirror what is going on in your subconscious mind and your emotions. Most of the time such dreams would not be of much spiritual significance. 
PROPHETIC DREAMS are dreams that are talking about things to come. These dreams are important. 

REVELATION DREAMS are dreams that reveal secret things. It opens up what is going on in the spirit realm, what has happened before and what is happening currently. This will include things that happened before you were born and things that happen after you were born. It could be things that you would ordinarily never be aware of, but were brought to your knowledge through revelation dreams.
INSTRUCTIVE DREAMS are dreams that instruct you on what to do. 
OPPRESSIVE DREAMS are also called demonic dreams. These are dreams of afflictions in the spirit realm, masquerade spirits beating you, madmen persuading you or eating food on regular basis. Eating food can be a soulish dream if it happens once in a while. But when you begin to eat on a regular basis and you begin to feel the effects, it is an oppressive dream. This type of dream, along with prophetic and revelation dreams are important. Chemical dreams are less important because once you are off of such anti-depressants etc. you will find that they will disappear.
   Eating regularly in the dream is more than just food it is actually a covenant and for many people it is even an initiation. When you are taking the evil spirits food in a dream, it is not feeding you real food but on blood and flesh. Because of this they have made a covenant with you and cannot leave your life. The power of Jesus is strong enough to break such covenants. Why does the kingdom of darkness come to feed God’s people in a dream? Firstly, to disable the blessing of God in your life. If you are due a blessing the next day and the devil does not want you to get it, he will come and make you eat in the dream to disorientate you the next day. The pastor of this article has seen people eat in dreams and the next day their mood was spoiled and they didn’t know what caused them to be in that position. 
   Secondly, they come to introduce sicknesses. The pastor has spoken to many people, some suffering from tonsillitis, stomach trouble complications and such. When they feed in the dream, these are things called evil deposits and evil plantations because the belly area is called the altar of the human life. It is the altar because anything that goes into the stomach serves several purposes, in the physical it gives human strength, in the spiritual it serves the purpose setting altars and also releasing other powers to flow and operate in the life of that purpose. People have been initiated into the underworld by eating in the dream. Some people have been fed by dead people and what the devil is doing is trying to introduce you to death. Jesus has the power to break that cycle of life. 
   What is bad food to eat in dreams? Chicken, meat, and defiled food are bad to eat in the dream. If the food is bad or dirty it is not good to eat in dreams. What must happen for you to be free of these things? If you find yourself eating in the dream you have to wake up and pray, ‘Lord I repent concerning it, any food I ate in the dream I command You to catch fire to it.’ You now need to go and get deliverance.  By doing so you will begin to see only God and angels appearing in your life.  What are the implications of dream food? If you do not know the danger you may not be able to understand how urgently you need to desire to come out of it. When you eat in a dream it is like eating from the table of the Devil. When you eat on a regular basis, it can drain you of your God given glory. It can abort good things that are about to come. You can lose your good health and comfort and make you dry spiritually. After deliverance there are steps to take to stop eating in dreams. You need grow up spiritually and engage in spiritual warfare. 

 

When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 
1 Corinthians 13:11

​

You know your spiritual level by the way you talk, by the way understand and by the way you think. The foundation is to give your life to Jesus. If you are not a child of God you cannot talk about growing up spiritually because you are not a spiritual person. You need to put away your iniquity. You need to be born again. How do you become born again? The Bible says that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. When you accept that you are a sinner you have started your path on your new birth. Now you believe in the completed works of Jesus Christ on the cross of Calvary many years ago. The next thing is that you desire to grow. Spiritual growth is different from physical growth. With physical growth you don’t desire to grow, you just grow. To grow spiritually, you eat to grow. Spiritual food is compulsory for spiritual growth. You cannot grow in the physical realm without exercise and so you cannot grow in the spiritual realm without the spiritual exercise of prayer. This praying is visiting the throne of grace on a regular basis. The power if God can be transferred through three ways. One, is when the man of God lays hand on you that is CONDUCTION. Two, when listening to a video, reading a book or listening to tape, power can be transferred, that is called CONVECTION. Three, power is transferred by going into your room and kneel down and pray to the Lord, this is RADIATION. As you visit that throne of God on a regular basis the power of God that saturate the throne is transferred to you by radiation.  Your prayer should be done on a daily basis. So to summarise, grow up and fight off. 
 

FALLING

   When you are falling and you have nothing to hold onto, you are out of control. It means there is an area in your life that is out of control or you feel that it is out of control. If you have a dream and you are falling and then you wake up and you are still afraid that is probably a fear dream. There are areas in your life in which you feel afraid and it is coming into your dream and this is often called a soul dream. It’s something that is inside of you and it is coming out into your dream life. If you are having a sense of falling in your dream, then suddenly you are able to control it, for example, instead of falling onto the ground you decide to fall into water, then it shows that even though you are not in control in an area of your life, the Holy Spirit can still direct you. You are able to respond to what God wants you to do in the dream and when you wake up you will know what to do. The whole purpose of dreams is to know how to respond to what God is doing when you wake up.

Eating
Falling
Famous

FAMOUS

   Seeing someone famous in a dream could represent what you think of that person. If the person is a president or a prime-minister it could be symbolic of God himself. That is because one is a leader of a government and the other the leader of heaven. If you see a particular famous person you have to ask what they are known for. They could be known for something in particular, a justice issue or an injustice issue. It could represent someone that is abusive in a place of authority. Actors show up often in dreams so ask yourself what role they play. It could also be the meaning of their name.

Gemstone

FIRE

   Depending on the context, it can be positive or negative. Positively it could represent the presence or glory of God,

 

1 Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the far side of the wilderness and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. 

2 There the angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up.

Exodus 3:1-2

 

God appeared as fire within a bush to Moses. It could represent spiritual cleansing or purification. Fire burns away all the impurities in a metal and therefore could relate to God wanting to do it in the dreamer’s life. Fire can represent zeal or passion. You could see that someone is set ablaze in the dream which could mean that the person is passionate about something. Negatively fire could represent destruction or judgment that could be coming. In a dream a person was in an apartment building and at night there was a fire in the building. She thought the fire would not reach her apartment. Then she decided to leave the apartment building. When leaving the building the fire reached her apartment. On leaving the building a woman with her bags packed, led her away from the fire. The dreamer interpreted the dream as being connected to an organisation or group, that is the building, and the fire represented confusion and conflict that had gotten out of control. God was showing her that she had to get away from the conflict or it would negatively affect her. She had to go down six floors which represented humanity or effort.

   Fire in the dream could represent the tongue or harsh words.

 

The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of one’s life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell.

James 3:6

 

Things that we say can hurt other people and cause pain. To see someone tongue on fire would mean that the person’s words are hurtful. You could have a dream where you have suffered a burn or someone else has suffered a burn. This type of dream represents betrayal. If you are dreaming that you are sitting in front of a warm cosy fireplace the fireplace would represent the heart. You may have heart issues that you need to look at. A raging fire or a forest fire could represent conflict or an issue that has gone out of control. This could be a warning dream. A fireman in a dream could represent a rescuer or saviour as in real life. A fire engine in a dream could speak of a particular ministry or church or group that has a deliverance type ministry. A fire extinguisher in a dream could represent the Holy Spirit putting out the fire or someone who comes out to put out the fire, who resolves conflict. If you see yourself with the fire extinguisher then God is calling you to resolve the conflict. Fireworks could have a positive or negative meaning. Positively it could represent a celebration of some kind. The negative meaning could represent anger, conflict or jealousy. 

FISH

FISH in dreams represent souls.

1 One day as Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret, the people were crowding round him and listening to the word of God.

2 He saw at the water’s edge two boats, left there by the fishermen, who were washing their nets.

3 He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and asked him to put out a little from the shore. Then he sat down and taught the people from the boat.

4 When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, ‘Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.’

5 Simon answered, ‘Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets.’

6 When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break.

7 So they signalled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

8 When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees and said, ‘Go away from me, Lord; I am a sinful man!’

9 For he and all his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,

10 and so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon’s partners.

Then Jesus said to Simon, ‘Don’t be afraid; from now on you will fish for people.’

11 So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him.

Luke 5:1-11

 

Souls could represent somebody that is not saved or given their life to Jesus. If you see plenty of fish in the sea or see yourself catching fish it could represent God wants you to bring in souls. One man dreamt that he and his son were standing in the sea and they were casting a fishing net. They believe they were trying to catch lost souls. In the dream two men drove a sewage truck, backed up to the coast, and started to dump the sewage into the water. The fish were being troubled by the water and they were being stunned as the water became filthy. The writer and his son couldn’t fish anymore. They walked out of the sea and the dreamer had a glass of water in his hand with sewage in it. He drank some of it and it tasted terrible. He believes that what happens when false doctrines come into church, it comes like sewage in the water. We are supposed to draw people into the church and teach them the righteous way. You can’t teach people to live in their sin, to live in darkness and they are going to be okay. When you see fish, you are talking about men and women. 

JELLY FISH OR EVIL FISH is symbolic of an evil person. When they sting you they are trying to kill you. Perhaps you should just move onto another fishing ground. Fish are also good, meaning that they are probably good people to be saved.

 

47 ‘Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and caught all kinds of fish. 

48 When it was full, the fishermen pulled it up on the shore. Then they sat down and collected the good fish in baskets, but threw the bad away.

Matthew 13:47-48

 

When you are fishing for people you are not fishing for your friend and family. Those are typically the last people to be fished. When you cast your net out it is primarily to strangers.

 

An OCTOPUS usually stays down in the deeper darker waters. They like to hide in dark places and if you threaten an octopus, they release ink which make it really hard to see, so they can escape. It will often represent a jezebel spirit because they like to stay in the deep things of the spirit. They like to be in that type of environment. As soon as someone begin to threaten them, they cloud the issue, they release confusion which makes it hard to see what they are up to. They like to get their tentacles into everything so they can manipulate and control it. This is a negative dream.

FAST FOODS are foods that you are consuming or receiving too fast. It could also mean that you want something quick, fast or in a hurry. It tends to indicate that you are being impatient in a particular area in your life. It is similar to cooking food in a microwave as opposed to in an oven. 

ICE CREAM can be a wonderful treat in a dream, it could represent spiritual treats or gifts. The flavour of the ice cream can have importance. A dreamer was given a strawberry flavoured ice cream cone which she didn’t like so she interpreted it as God sending her some things that she didn’t like. Later God gave her a chocolate ice cream cone which she did like and so was showing her that good things were coming her way. 

BREAD can represent Jesus.

 

Then Jesus declared, ‘I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.

Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.

Colossians 3:1

 

It talks about Jesus being seated at the right hand of the Father. If you are sitting in a recliner it could represent a season of relaxation. If you are seated on a stool, which is usually higher than a chair, it could represent an elevation or promotion for you.

Seeing a TABLE in a dream could represent fellowship and it will depend on who is seated at it. It could represent fellowship with God. It could represent transacting business. It could represent service to others if you are serving others who are seated at the table.

Sitting on a LOVE SEAT could mean that the dreamer needs to show love to someone in particular. God could be showing that the dreamer needs to walk in a place of love.

The BED represents a place of rest or intimacy. God may be wanting more intimacy with the dreamer.

It can represent wisdom or someone the dream holds near and dear. The colour of the gemstone can have a meaning also.

DIAMONDS can represent Jesus himself or a precious work or spiritual work. Diamonds are the hardest natural substance you can find in the earth so it can represent strength and power. A diamond can represent a covenant relationship. For example, the dreamer is given a diamond ring.

SAPPHIRE is mentioned in the Bible.

 

and they saw the God of Israel. And there was under His feet as it were a paved work of sapphire stone, and it was like the very heavens in its clarity. (NKJV)

Exodus 24:10

​

So, sapphire in dreams can represent the presence of God. It could also represent a firm or Godly foundation. It could also be a play on words, as fire in sapphire, representing God’s anointing. 

A RUBY is red and can represent Jesus Christ or his blood. It can represent the heart or wisdom. It can also represent something priceless.

TOPAZ is a blue stone. The colour blue represents something heavenly. It could represent revelation and communion with the Holy Spirit. 

ONYX originally has a flesh colour. Exodus 28 describes how God had the names of twelve tribes of Israel engraved on the onyx stone. It is the most mentioned gemstone in the Bible. In a dream it could represent a permanent mark. It could also represent the heart or the inner man. It could mean that God is calling you to engrave the Word into your heart or soul. 

A pearl can represent something holy. It can also represent revelation and wisdom.

 

“Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces.

Guns

GUN

   How guns are interpreted in dreams will depend on the country. In America it is more common that in Europe, which could be a cultural thing, because people in Europe don’t have as many guns. What does it mean in dreams? If someone points a gun at you, you will do what they say. Guns talks about using authority, it represents having authority. In dreams where other people are shooting at you, they are using their authority. It could be a boss or the government authority using it to harm or to help. There was a child that had nightmares of a witch attacking him in a dream. His parent told him to tell the witch to leave in the name of Jesus. The nightmares stop and his parents asked him what happened. He said that the witch came back and he shot it. The parents said no, that he should ask the witch to leave in the name of Jesus. He replied, no, and said if the witch returned that he would shoot it again. The child understood and exercised his authority.

HAIR

   Hair grows out of your scalp therefore it is symbolic of your mind-set, your way of thinking. 
LONG HAIR that is growing down the back could represent growing in wisdom. You are either growing in wisdom or going to grow in wisdom.
SHORT HAIR could represent a decrease in wisdom. This is where your hair is shorter than in real life. It could also represent a new and different way of thinking. It can be positive or negative.
Hair could represent
STRENGTH AND POWER. Samson had physical strength due to his hair having the strength and anointing of God. So, hair can represent spiritual strength or the power of God that has come upon your life.
Hair could represent
COVERING OR PROTECTION.

​

but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering.
1 Corinthians 11:15

​

This would represent a protection of her mind a protection of her way of thinking Godly thoughts. 
Negatively, hair could represent vanity, self-focused or self-centred.

The colour of hair would also have a symbolic meaning. If you dream you are blonde but in real life you have black or dark hair this would be significant. BLONDE HAIR is good because it represents the light of God or revelation or illumination that is coming to your way of thinking. This is also true of WHITE HAIR, which could represent the light of God, purification or cleansing of mind. RED HAIR can have a positive or negative meaning. Positively, it can represent wisdom or the anointing of God. If the hair is fiery red then that could represent anger or sinful thoughts. BLACK HAIR where the hair is not naturally black, can represent sin or a sinful way of thinking or negative thoughts. Where the hair is especially black the person may have suicidal thoughts or death and is a symbol of witchcraft. BLUE HAIR represents revelation or insight. If in the dream the person has dark blue hair and is acting negative or sad it could represent depression. GREY HAIR can represent wisdom and maturity. If you are talking to a grey-haired old man it could represent God Himself. If you dream of a young person in life with grey hair, God could be showing that they are mature beyond their years.
A
BALD HEAD could be positive or negative. Baldness can represent humility, removing old ways of thinking, grief or loss of wisdom. It could represent a massive loss of wisdom in a particular area in your life.
DREADLOCKS, if the dreamer does not normally have dreadlocks and they dream of having dreadlocks, it could represent ungodly ways of thinking, false religion and confusion.

​

There are different types of scenarios in a dream:
GETTING A HAIRCUT this could be a change in thought or a decrease in wisdom. Positively it could represent a new outlook. It could represent God humbling you in a particular area. It could also represent spiritual grooming.
SOMETHING CAUGHT IN YOUR HAIR could represent a negative thought that you have a hard time removing from your life. God is showing you that you need to get rid of a certain aspect of the way that you think.
WASHING YOUR HAIR represent cleansing and purifying your thoughts or of your mind-set.
BRUSHING COMBING OR FLAT IRONING YOUR HAIR indicates that your mind-set needs to be straighten out. There needs to be a change in the way you think. Your thoughts need to be untangled.
TANGLED HAIR could mean confusion or a lack of understanding in a particular area in your life. This is not good. You should pray and ask God to show you where your thinking is not right.
If you are
 PUTTING ON A WIG or you see someone putting on a wig that they don’t wear in real life it means that they are putting on fake hair. This means that you are pretending to be something you're not or they are pretending to be something that they are not. It could represent false authority or anointing. They tend to be negative.

 

Hair
Insects

INSECTS

Insects could have a positive or negative meaning in a dream.

People are afraid of SPIDERS because there is some danger. Spiders in a dream is never a good thing. They generally have a negative meaning. They represent witchcraft, darkness and occult activity. The web that they weave is often the spell that has been cast, a trap to capture their prey. A spider spinning a web could represent deception. This could be the enemies plan or a natural person’s plan to entrap you in some way. When you see a spider in a dream then you should kill it. If you don’t and you wake up then you pray, ‘God move witchcraft from affecting me, don’t let me be touched by witchcraft. Father I thank you that you protect me, for He who is for me is greater than he that is against me. Greater is He who is in me than he who is in the world. If God be for us, who can stand against us.’ We should not be afraid of any of the works of darkness.

There are different types of spiders. The BLACK WIDOW spider can represent a natural death or a spiritual death. The RED BACK spider tries to trap you in sin. Red could also mean wrath or anger and you are allowing these traits to overtake you in your behaviour. The YELLOW spider could mean that the enemy is trying to stop you from progressing through fear. The BROWN RECLUSE spider would represent walking in the flesh. A SPIDER BITE would represent negative or hurtful words that might be spoken over your life.

MOTHS  in real life can destroy certain materials of clothing. Moths do not actually eat the clothing but produce lava which causes the clothing to dissolve. This shows the enemy plans to bring corruption and destruction to your gifting and your purpose. 

FLIES are attracted to dead things and manure and it’s a very negative thing. Flies can represent evil spirits or Satan himself.

 

But some of them said, ‘By Beelzebul, the prince of demons, he is driving out demons.’

Luke 11:15

 

Beelzebub means that Satan is lord of the flies. Flies around you in dreams would tend to represent evil spirits invading your life. If flies come into the bedroom then demonic forces are trying to cause unrest and disrupt your peace. A fly going into your drink while you are trying to drink it could represent doctrines of demons.

 

4 The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons.

1 Timothy 4:1

 

The enemy will give you a message or teaching that actually goes against the Word of God.

ANTS can have a positive or negative meaning; it will depend on what they are doing. It could represent that the Lord wants you to become more diligent in your life. Maybe God wants you to increase in wisdom. In the negative ants can be a nuisance. They could represent issues that irritate you. Ant that bite can represent negative or harmful words. If the ants are biting your feet the enemy is trying to stop you from moving forward in the things of God by using negative words. 

TERMITES cannot be seen but they can get in and destroy an entire house if nothing is done. They could represent negative issues that are small and seem insignificant but they can do a lot of damage. They can bring a house down in dreams. A house can represent a person, family or ministry.

BEES can be positive or negative. Positively they can represent busyness, hard workers and great labourers. Bees also make honey and honey can represent the Word of God. Negatively, bees can sting and therefore represent words that are harmful and negative. When they sting, they leave their sting behind so it continues to hurt even though the bee has long gone. God is showing you that you have received negative or harmful words during your life, so he can heal you.

WASPS can sting you like a bee so they have the same meaning as a bee.

BUTTERFLIES can represent physical or natural transformation. Caterpillars can transfer into beautiful butterflies. It could represent freedom or having a new release on life.

TICS AND MOSQUITOES are spiritual parasites. They tend to represent the enemy wanting to sap the life out of you. It could also represent a person in your life.

LADYBIRDS in your dream could mean that God is bringing refinement in your life which would mean going through a purification process. He is removing impurities from your life and is making everything beautiful.

BUGS in a dream could refer to something that bugs you. A form of word play.

If you are seeing a COCKROACH in a dream there is probably a lot of issues for you to deal with and you are just seeing the tip of the iceberg.

The LOCUSTS in the Bible often consumes things. They eat up our income. However, John the Baptist ate locusts with honey so it could be talking about a prophetic calling. 

KEYS

keys web.png

In the Bible, keys are used to show the ability to open something up. It talks about the key of the house of David which was given to the steward. The steward was the manager that had the right and responsibility to access all the resources of the house to accomplish what the king wanted done. Therefore, the key had the ability to open or close something. There are a number of things a key can represent in a dream.
Key can represent
AUTHORITY. Peter was given the keys to the kingdom; it was not only authority but also revelation.

​

I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.’
Matthew 16:19

​

So, keys in a dream can represent SPIRITUAL AUTHORITY. God can be showing you that He is giving you spiritual authority to overcome all of the power of the enemy or attack from the enemy. 

​

I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you.
Luke 10:19

​

Keys can represent KNOWLEDGE. If you find a key in a dream or someone give you a key in the dream then that could represent knowledge. You will either need to gain knowledge or be given knowledge.

​

‘Woe to you experts in the law, because you have taken away the key to knowledge. You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who were entering.’
Luke 11:52

 
Keys can represent
ACCESS OR OPPORTUNITY. This access or opportunity should not be missed. You could have been given keys to a new house, giving you access to a new area of life.
A key could represent
FINDING A SOLUTION. Being given a key or finding a key could mean that a solution is coming to whatever problem you might be facing. 
Keys in a dream could be a
CALL TO PRAYER to prayer in a situation or intercede on behalf of someone else. 
Keys could relate to
FAITH. God could be showing you that you need to exercise faith. 

​

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.
Hebrews 11:1

​

God is showing you that you need to stand in faith or use the key of faith to unlock something in your life. 
A key could mean that you need to
SPEAK THE WORD OF GOD over a situation or problem. 
If you
CAN'T FIND YOUR KEYS, this could mean that you are having a hard time finding a solution to problems. It could also mean that you feel powerless as if you are lacking strength or resources. You feel as though you are being held back and not able to move forward in life. This applies especially to the loss of car keys. We know that in a dream the car could represent your life’s purpose or your life’s journey. 
GIVING SOMEBODY ELSE KEYS could represent that you are giving them access to certain areas in your life. 

 

Keys
Knives

KNIVES

Objects covered here are items that are sharp like knives and swords. This is biblical, the concept of a blade is attached to the tongue or words. A short knife is less harmful than a long sword. The sword has more potential for damage or do more good. Those that heal use blades as well, like a scalpel. We need to use words in such a way that it is a scalpel and not something that attacks other. When you have a dream that is a knife or sword, pay attention as to how it is used. Are you using it to harm someone else? One dreamer saw herself stabbing her husband as he stood bleeding. She didn’t realise how much her words were harming him. She was being flippant by the way she was speaking to him but it was actually killing him. You can also use a sword or a knife to defend yourself from an attack and that is talking about using the power of God, prophetic word, the scripture itself to protect yourself. If it is a blade it is more likely something to do with words.

Left and Right

LEFT AND RIGHT

This could be the right side of the body or the left side of the body or turn left and turning right, looking right and looking left. What does right and left mean. The biblical understanding refers to the right hand talking about ability, faith or power. Jesus is talking about sitting at the right hand of the Father which is talking about authority or a place of position of power. On the left there is no biblical reference but from experience it means what you are born to do or what you are destined to do. Maybe you're driving a car and you have to turn right instead of left or your right arm is strong and your left arm is weak and the Lord is showing you it’s not your destiny but you have the ability to do it. It could be reversed and you are destined to do it but don’t quite have the faith to do yet. Right may mean that it is the right thing to do, playing on words.

LOOK ALIKE

When you or someone you know LOOKS TOTALLY DIFFERENT or the opposite of how they normally look. For example, your sister Mary looks like your friend Joan. In the dream you are talking and interacting with your sister but she looks like your friend Joan. This type of dream is showing that both people have a similar relationship to you. You see your friend as you see your sister. You could have a dream where you know the person in the dream but at some point, THEY TURNED INTO SOMEONE ELSE. This is showing that they either have similar traits or similar callings or gifting’s. You could have a dream where you see yourself or someone else MUCH YOUNGER younger in the dream than they are in real life. This could have a negative or a positive meaning, it depends on the context of the dream. Negatively, if you see someone in the dream and they are way younger than they are in real life it could represent spiritual or emotional immaturity. Positively it could represent a childlike faith. You could dream that the person is MUCH OLDER older than they are in real life. This could represent spiritual or emotional maturity or wisdom.  So, you are looking in a mirror and you see yourself much older with grey hair and wrinkles it could be a great dream. It could be showing that you are wise beyond your years. If you have a dream where your BABY IS TALKING OR WALKING but they are too little to do so, it could mean that the child is very wise and could be ahead of their time. You could have a dream in which the person is HEAVIER OR OBESE, than in real life. This could be negative or positive. Positively, it could mean that the person is spiritually flourishing. Negatively, the person is indulging in the flesh, they are walking in the flesh and not in the spirit. They are doing their own thing, being selfish and self-centred. In a dream you or your friend is SHORTER in the dream than in real life. It could represent emotional or spiritual growth that has been stunted. They have stopped growing and it could mean that they are coming up short, a play on words, in a particular area of their lives. Something is hindering their emotional or spiritual growth and you need to pray for that particular person. In the dream you or the other person is WAY TALLER. Positively it could represent spiritual or emotional growth. This is going to a greater height spiritually or emotionally. It could also represent that the person is a leader or a leadership potential. Negatively it could represent that the person has the tendency to be proud or even arrogant. Thinking more highly of themselves than they ought to think.  In the dream you are looking in the mirror and you are a DIFFERENT NATIONALITY OR RACE in real life. It could be a call to that particular ethnic group or race. God wants you to empathise with that group or see things from that particular group’s point of view. It could be speaking of your spiritual state. An African/American woman had a dream and she was looking at herself in a mirror but she was white with blonde hair. This was speaking of her spiritual state and what God was calling her to become in real life. In other words, the blonde hair would be representative of revelation or spiritual illumination of her way of thinking. White in this sense would represent purity or wholeness. God was calling this person to a life of purity and wholeness and to change or illuminate her way of thinking by reading or studying the word of God.
