I pray you're doing well and growing the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ.
For those interested, I just wrote an article titled, "Maybe it was bad pizza?" It specifically deals with the subject of Dreams and Visions from God. It a very misunderstood subject and one in which believers seem to go into extremes on. On one end of the spectrum you have believers, mainly from the Charismatic/Pentecostal side, who believe all kinds of craziness associated with dreams and visions. Then, on the other end of the spectrum you have believers who out right reject that God communicates in these ways, or they are so skeptical that they might was well reject that God speaks through visions and dreams today. In the article, I've tried to accurately show what the bible teaches on this subject.
I cover:
1. Dreams in the Old & New Testament.
2. How they are often symbolic and spoken in riddles.
3. That God does in fact frequently speak to His people today through these means.
4. Common Objections.
5. Lastly, I share many person experiences of God speaking to me and my wife through dreams.
My intent is not to in any way diminish with written word of God, but to show that in additions to God's written word, and in agreement with God's word, He has other ways in which He speaks to His people.
If you have any questions or comments, please let me know.May the Lord bless you.
