I was not sure which forum to put this in, so feel free to move it if needed.
I am not sure if this is something or nothing really. Here goes, I had a dream last night that was disturbing. It was so different and I was not sure if it was just a dream or something more. That is why I am asking for help and understanding.
The Dream: I was with my family outside our home. These men appeared out of nowhere. They were dressed in suits, hats and sunglasses to hide who they were. It was as if it was not important. They showed badges. I told them they showed the badges to fast to get a look at it. They told me it was not important but I must go with them right away. They pointed inside my house. At this time I noticed I was holding a silver tray with meat on it and a bottle of red wine. ( I don't drink.) They surrounded me and took me inside. Inside I saw another man who I knew immediately was a high angel. I fell on my knees without a thought and bowed my head. He took the tray and wine from me. Then he told me he was upset because I was not growing my half. I told him I didn't understand. He said I was not growing my half of the seed I was given. Then he pointed and said it made me no better than him. There was no man where he was pointing, instead there was a thick hanging rope. It was moving closer to me and I understood the him meant Judas. I kept shouting that I didn't understand and I needed understanding and wisdom on what he meant. The rope disappeared and everything calmed down. He said if you do not understand you must seek the one who does. He said this twice. Then he told me to repeat the following- There is life in the blood. There is power in the blood. Now go. Then the dream ended.
I know as far as my faith it has grown greatly over the past year from where it was. It is just lately I have felt a need to do something with my faith but I am not sure what. I have repeatedly prayed and asked God to give direction. I have joined the Missionary group in my church but so far they are not doing anything and I am not sure now if they are going to move in the direction I was hoping. I thought it would be witnessing and ministry but it seems like it will be more of just going to other churches. I wanted to reach the lost.
I looked up what seeds mean to God and found that it means potential. That still does not show what I should do that I am not. I asked a former deacon at our church ( he moved out of state) but he said it sounded like I am not right with God. I am sure I am. I know I am saved. I just feel like I am not doing enough. Is it just a dream because I feel this way or a true message? What would you do?

When we are saved, we are all given 'The Great Commission' to do in this life. To share with all we meet the love and grace of God and the gospel of salvation. Not everyone is called to preach or teach. Some are called to be simply "Prayer Warriors" for the Lord. I believe you when you say to me that you are saved. But is there any thing in your life that you have not fully surrended to the Lord? Maybe this 'dream' that you have experianced is the Holy Spirit dealing with you in concerns to that particular matter that you still need to 'let go and let God' have and handle, and to possibly remove whatever it is in your life that is causing you to 'maybe' not 'fully be able to serve the Lord and to have the type of walk and relationship with Him', as He wants to have with you. Just an opinion my friend. Whatever it is that is going on is between you and the Lord. May the Lord continue to lead, guide, direct and protect you and your's in your walk with Him.

Just an opinion my friend. Whatever it is that is going on is between you and the Lord. May the Lord continue to lead, guide, direct and protect you and your's in your walk with Him. Your sister in Christ, Ms. Dannielle Fitzbaugh The only question I am dealing with lately is how the church has changed. The atmosphere of the church is not what it was and I have been wondering if the church is the right church for me. I can not branch out or grow in the direction I am hoping for. I want to teach and maybe someday preach. The only time I feel truly alive and happy is talking about God. Lately I feel like my voice has been silenced. I have grown to the point I want to share with others the insights in the word I have found but I am being moved to the background in church. There are making two men deacons who do not meet the qualifications for deacon. The Pastor says they are as good as they are going to get and that they have a good heart. Neither one attended church regularly. The Pastor is aware that one stole the ladder we kept at the church and sold it. Nothing was done about it. He lies and is constantly asking us or one of our friends to treat him out to dinner. He doesn't even care if we couldn't take his wife out. All he worries about is himself. The other one is dealing with a lot of personal issues. I questioned the Pastor about how they qualify as deacons and now I am not teaching or helping read in church any more. When I questioned the Pastor, he said the church voted and they become deacons next month. The church would never go against the Pastor's wishes. I could not endorse them because in my opinion it goes against the word. That is the only thing I am dealing with. I feel like I lost my voice in church.

If your looking for the PERFECT CHURCH. You will never find it.
Because no matter where you go, YOU will always find something wrong with it.
The Old Testiment and the New Testiment both share scriptual doctrine in the concerns to a womans place in the church.
Also, if you feel that the pastor is making the wrong decision in concerns to Deacons, and if nothing comes of that then have the entire church put it too a vote.
Have him refer to 1Timothy ch.3 verses 1-5, as well as 1 Peter 5:1-4, and the book of Titus 1:6-9; in regards to "Who Qualifies To Be A Church Leader?" These scripture cover the Standards For Leadership in a Church.
I know because I just finished reading a booklet from RBC ministries resources about the very subject.
You can find some useful tips for women in the ministry at
www.rbc.net under the discoveryseries area of their index.
After reading what you have had to say, all that I can give as advise to you is too keep praying for the entire church and the pastor as well as for yourself for the Lord to guide and direct you all where He wants you to be or to do what He wants you to do to serve Him because thats what its all about anyways isn't it?
God bless,
sf7 JAck F.

Is it just a dream because I feel this way or a true message? What would you do? Shalom. I'd have to agree with the brethren - there's so much more that the Father is trying to show us through the Ruach haKodesh (Holy Spirit, but translates more comprehensively to 'Breath' or 'Wind'). To find out these things, best to ditch the doctrines and traditions of the rest of the world, scrape off the fluff and candied coating, and sit down with Abba Yah (God our Father) and have a heart to heart talk. See what the Master (Yeshua/Christ) is really saying in those parables. YHWH calls to us. Its up to us to answer. Question is, after finding the roman's road to salvation, do we take the next step? Or do we stall out? Thinking that's all we have to do? Do we stick with the gospel? Or do we look at all of the cross references that Yeshua showed us? He didn't just die on that cross. He lives in us still. smile And He didn't just come to take the fall for us. He fulfilled Yah's Word and the prophets, and He took us by the hand and showed us how we could do it. So much more... May the Father give you His guidance and Shalom. And the endurance to see it through. ~MW

Thank you all for your help.
I will always choose to follow the word rather than man made doctrines.
I know there is no perfect church. We are humans and humans have flaws. Even the disciples made plenty of mistakes but Christ never gave up on them.
I will continue to pray and seek God's guidance.

But here is my 2 cents worth on it. First off- I am not Joseph, or Danniel from the Bible who were able to interturpet dreams from our Lord. Secondly- To me, trying to interpert dreams is about as Non-Christian today as say to read a quigi board or terrot cards. Thirdly- If the Holy Spirit is trying to tell you something here, it is really for you to pray about and to ask God to use you in whatever, whichever way that the Holy Spirit leads you to do. Trust me when I say that I am not trying to come down on you here, because I am not. We are all flawed human beings and noone is perfect and all have fallen short of the glory of God. But if it was me that had a dream such as your's, and I was questioning what it meant then; I would be praying to the Lord to set me straight in whatever that I maybe failed in and ask the Lord to open the eyes of my heart and to burn into my heart, soul, mind and body His Will that He wants me to do, and to have the Holy Spirit open the doors that He wants me to go through and for Him to qualify me to do whatever is His will for me to do. I pray that the Lord will reveal to you His purpose in your life. Your brother in Jesus Christ our Lord, T.S.K.

My Pastor teaches you to listen to some of your dreams because it may address issues you are dealing with. Not all dreams are meant to be interpreted, only the ones that seem to stick with you and trouble you. God may speak to you in dreams just as He did in the Bible. There is nothing in the word that says He stopped speaking that way. I ask people for their thoughts to simply open my eyes to different ways to see things. Ever look at a problem for so long and not get the answer, then you walk away and come back and the answer pops out at you. It is simply because you looked at it a different way.

I do understand what you are saying about not seeing the forest because of the trees, and to be honest we all go through that from time to time. I certainly know that I do and will be the first one to admit to it as well.
Plus, I do believe that at some point and time every Christian who has fully surrendered their heart and soul over to Christ Jesus as their Lord and Saviour, has said "Lord, what is it that you want me to do for you now? Whatever it is, please let me know and I will do it because I love you Lord!"
There is a passage of scripture in the Bible that says: 'Be still, and know that I am God!'; and another that states that when we were saved we were charged with carring out The Great Commission - which is to go unto all of the world and share Jesus's love and grace with everyone. (paraphrasing)
Still there are other scriptures through out the New Testiment and Old for that matter that direct us as to do what we are suppose to do for the Lord.
One I like the most is when Jesus told the pharisses that they could hang all the laws and those who wrote them on these two things; and that is to love your God with all of your heart, soul, mind and body and to love thy neighbor as God has loved you!
So whether it is being a prayer warrior or feeding and clothing widows, ophans, handicap, and the elderly or volunteering at your local suicide hotline/run-a-way teenager's safe house, food bank, or teaching a Sunday school class at your church or a Bible study class/course from your own home if need be.
God will use you in whatever way that He dicides and when He decides, all that you need to do is to stay ready in the word, willing to share it with everyone you meet even if it means steeping outside of your comfort zone, and stay encouraged, and God will use you and bless you in all that you do and say for Him.
I maybe preaching to the choir, or to myself as well here.
But the main thing is that you get to read this and that maybe someone else will get to read this, and this entire post of your's here may even bring someone closer to the Lord simply because we all took the time to have 'church or worship time' together.
You know what they say? When two or more gather together in My Name, then it is MY Will that is being done; and my favorite is that 'iron sharpens iron'.
God bless you Ms. Iamlostforever.
Your brother in Christ,
T.S.K.
