I
had a dream early this morning, and I feel that it has a purpose. Therefore, I am writing about it.
I
was in a house with several people, who were talking. One person was talking to a man about how she
was going to be working with the man’s wife soon, and she was excited about it. She and the wife would be co-workers,
apparently. The husband was excited
also, and he began telling the woman about all of the tasks that she could do
for his wife. It was clear that he
wanted her to be like his wife’s personal servant, even though that was not her
job. I became angry, and I spoke up,
realizing his intentions. Apparently, I knew
the wife because I told the woman that the wife was a very sweet and talented
person, however, she and her husband were trying to make everything all about
her. I basically told the woman that
they are selfish and are trying to take advantage of her. As I spoke, the husband was silent, but his
eyes grew black, and it was clear that he was angry. I screamed at the people in the room to “look
at his eyes!” but it was unclear if they saw them too. He was becoming angrier and angrier, and I
could feel his evil nature. His nature became
even more obvious when I suddenly yelled at the top of my lungs, “Give God the
praise!” When I yelled that phrase I felt
myself floating away from the people. I
yelled the phrase more than once, at the evil husband and at every person in
the room. I don’t know what the people
did; it’s unclear to me. Suddenly, I
began to wake up. I woke up with great
difficulty, struggling and gasping for air as I tried to become awake
completely. Finally, I was completely
awake.
Because
the room I was in was completely dark, I then turned on the light and the
television as well. I really did not
know what to make of what I had just experienced. When I turned on the television I turned it
onto one of my favorite preachers, Joel Osteen.
There literally were two or three minutes left in his sermon. When I turned it on there, the topic that he
was talking about was clear, “Give God the praise!” I listened, and he spoke some more, and it
was clear that that was the theme of his message, “Give God the praise!” And I felt that I had received the confirmation
that I needed.
