I have had many dreams and I have had God work through me. I believe in the gifts .. I also know that there are many gifts. all differing.  BUT I also understand in the last days there will be many who come in his (GOD's, JESUS) name, And we must watch and use wisdom. I will not tell you what it is, yet, however, I feel like I am too come against TBN, ( christian network)  I am an unknown. That  DOES NOT concern me. \nI have had many many dreams, VISIONS etc.. and I have just started getting them put together, and it scares me! \nThese things are huge, and I feel like David, Taking on the GIANT.. What are your thoughts.... Something is happening, and I am willing to do the work... (WITH GOD PAVING THE WAY) \nThis in a way is as a fleece before the lord. If you don't know what that is.... Read your bible.\nSO here goes.... I want your imput, But real thoughts and answers only please. God Bless......

I am not a Christian however I do have a thought on the matter.  I believe that God can work through us in many way.  Much of which you have mentioned and more.  If you are getting these deams and you have kept track of them, (written them down for rememberance) you have prayed about them and they are still coming I would put them into serious consideration.  These would not come to you in the way they have unless you were meant to do something with them and I believe that.  I do know of the TBN and it is a giant.  That is a huge undertaking if it meant that God wants to use you.  \nDo not ignore them, write them all down in a note book.  Read them over and over again. See the details in them.  You see the bigger picture but if you go over everything no matter how minute then there might be something in the smaller details that will help you.  Help you to understand what you are to do, what God wants you to see in particular, that sort of thing.  And pray.  Pray and Pray.  God listens and God will hear you.  If he gives you scripture, read it.  See how it pertains to the matter at hand.  Only you and God know what this all is. So take to heart that God will be there.  Listen to your dreams, Listen to God, Pray and God will show you what is right in the matter and what You should do about what God has given you.\nI hope this helps you in your travels and let God be with you.

I think you need to relax a little bit to begin with. Haven't you ever heard the phrase "When God closes a door He opens a window"?  Now, I know that's not exactly how the phrase goes but that's how I say it. God gives us trials sometimes just to show us how strong we are. Don't give up on Him. He is getting you ready for the right job so just stay strong. The things that you are going through right now are learning experiences. Trust me... I know you don't know me but trust me....things will be okay. Just keep your eyes on Him and know that He has a bigger plan for you. I'll keep you in my prayers tonight. God Bless.

Sweetie, I would LOVE to spend some time chatting with you about all this!  Anyway, when you ask God to come into your life and your heart, just mean it..and you only have to do it once.  There are a few important steps that will help you to follow his guidance.  First, get a Bible you like and understand..and read it (baby steps).  Find a church you like and go regularly..and don't forget the fellowship..it's very important.  Those are the people you lean on in your times of doubt..they will help keep you straight and they will 'feed' you the information and encouragement you need.  The Bible says "Do not forsake the assembling.." (Hebrews 10:25)..which means the fellowship.  Go to Bible study and make Christian friends.  It's a process, but we're all born in and of sin..we will ALWAYS sin, but we repent when we do.  Also, pray for guidance and understanding of His word (Psalms 32:8..I will instruct you and teach you the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you..).  And lastly, how do we have a relationship with anybody??  We spend TIME with them...talk to God..often!  Spend some devotional time with him.  Once you really let yourself open up to all of these things, you'll FEEL the difference..and the depression will fall away.  You'll know true peace and happiness.  I speak from experience!  Good luck to you!  IM me if you have any questions!  Praise God!!

That God answered my prayer, and through miracles, dreams, visions, and words, brought me my husband from 500 miles away.  A man who knows God, loves God, lives for God.  A man who seeks God with all his heart, all his soul, and all his strength. \n\nGod gave me dreams to tell me about this man in advance.  God is real and awesome and dynamic and so beautiful.  He came after me and made me a new spirit.  He came after a man and made him a new spirit.  Then through his great miracles he put us together.\n\nPraise you God, for your glory, your love, and your power and strength.  Praise you, God, in times of pain.  Praise you for who you are.  Let your will be done.

I know this is long, but it's worth reading.\n\nI believe in God because I've found peace in Him.\nWhen I have a bad day at school, or if my parents get mad at me, all I have to do is read my Bible. Instant spirit boost. It reminds me that God is always there right beside me, no matter what I'm going through (and that he went there before me and knew everything that was going to happen, and that nothing happens that he doesn't already have worked out). It's a faith thing.\nTo answer your last two questions: Indeed, we are all sinners. It had to be that way. God wants us to have a relationship with him. That relationship is called "fellowship", and you can't have real fellowship with someone unless they genuinely want to. It wouldn't be a true relationship if, say, you tried to be friends with a computer; the computer just does whatever you tell it to do, it doesn't have a real choice of whether to stay with you or go somewhere else, so its friendship really means nothing. So, in order for God to have true fellowship with His creations, there had to be something standing between humans and God, so that only people who genuinely wanted God in their lives had a relationship with Him. That's why there had to be sin, and all of us had to be sinners, so that we could opt to have fellowship with God. And, if He destroyed us, there still wouldn't be fellowship. You just have to realize, God has already won. He won when He sent His Son Jesus to die on the cross for all the sins of mankind, so we can have a relationship with Him. He loves you and He wants you, and He's already forgiven you; all you have to do is accept it.\nTo answer your last question: I'm not sure about either Ghandi's or Einstein's faith in God or their salvation, so I don't know if they went to heaven or hell. But I do know this: Jesus said "No one comes to the Father except through me." So if Jesus wasn't their personal Saviour and they had not placed their trust in Him, they did not go to heaven. For the Bible says that no good deeds on this Earth are enough to "buy" your way into heaven, even if you're incredibly smart or act on integrity all the time, you still need atonement for your sins through Jesus Christ.

Your dreams are trying to tell you something. maybe you need to come closer to God and if you are close to him then you should try talking to your preacher. tell him how you feel about this dream.

Fireworks,  I can't say that I really believe in ghosts but I have a friend who does.  In fact, I had to admit this, but sometimes, I've had that same feeling, peripherally, seeing someone and distinctively FEELING it but turning to face it and there's nothing there.  I told her this and she told me that perhaps I was visited by a spirit.  Of course, I listened to her but I was thinking, wow, she's crazy.  But...I'm not so sure.  So, she  belonged to this group that met, spiritually.  Some of them were gifted to see these spirits.  I know this might sound crazy but they went around the room and "saw" these spirits, which were normally spirits of someone that person knew.  For me, the woman was seeing my aunt who had just recently passed and told me that everything was okay and for me to stop worrying about her.  \n\nThe English word "spirit" comes from the Latin spiritus, meaning breath.\n\nI know that these "spiritual" sightings can be a lot of hogwash but you know, I have to say that I do believe it is possible.  I was frightened by this when it first began to happen but I really believe that what you see is not imagined.  I'm serious.  I still see them (not as often as before) but I think I am no longer afraid since my friend had me go to one of those meetings.  \n\nYes, I think it's normal.  I also think people will not admit they see it too.  Honestly, I won't admit it either.  Just here....because I think only a few close to you will believe you.  I do have another friend who believes in ghost.  So does my husband.  I don't admit it with them because - I think I'm too scared to open up the realization that this can be true and I'll be seeing them all the time.    \n\nI think if I didn't watch scary movies so often, I would be afraid of these spirits. :)

Ecc 9 is telling of how he views it.  He is frustrated with life and sees it as a waste of time... and to just go out and eat drink and be happy...for tomorrow we die - is the sentiment there.  \n\nBut there actually is mention of ghosts in the new testiment.  \n\nWhen Jesus was walking to them across the water - they were scared and though he was a ghost.  \n\n\nMatthew 14:26 \nWhen the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. "It's a ghost," they said, and cried out in fear.\n\nMark 6:49 \nbut when they saw him walking on the lake, they thought he was a ghost. They cried out,\n\nLuke 24:37    \nThey were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost.\n\nONE OF THE BEST IS THIS\nJesus himself is saying this - so he clearly believes in ghosts -  Judge for yourself. \n\n\nLuke 24:38-40     \n38  He said to them, "Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? 39   Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have."    40  When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet.\n\nPS -  i do believe in ghosts, spirits, demons, and angels.  \n\nThere is WAY more to this world than when meets the eye.   I have been through some pretty strange things with living in a haunted apartment and all. I have absolutly no doubts (personally speaking) that spirits AKA ghosts do exist.  \n\n(seeing it refered to in the Bible - only serves to back up what I already knew though)  :)

Someone who asked a question about a book she read by Sylvia Browne and psychic phenomena wrote me to thank me because I told her about deceiving spirits who seek to lead people away from God and into the occult.\n\nIn her question she was convinced that by reading this book that she had "opened her mind" to a new world of psychic insights but after she read my answer she wrote me and thanked me and told me that I was right and that her sister who was a Christian had been trying to tell her the same thing.\n\nA couple of other people have also written me to thank me for setting them straight about something, but I give all of the glory and honor to God! I regularly ask that the Holy Spirit will guide me to posts and speak through me and accompany the words He gives me to accomplish every purpose that He would set for them in Jesus' name.\n\nIsaiah 55:10  For as the rain comes down, and the snow from the heavens, and does not return there, but waters the earth, and makes it bring out and bud, and give seed to the sower and bread to the eater;   11   so shall My Word be, which goes out of My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall certainly do what I sent it to do.

I can somewhat say that I understand how you feel or where you are coming from.  But you know, we shouldn't be living only for the riches of this world. God is still looking over you, do not be fooled by the devil trying to make every problem seem like the end of your life as though you are all alone in the world and no one cares.  He thrives at that.  The Holy Spirit is there, right with you.  Please talk to Him right now and ask Him to make His presence felt.\n\nAt times, I've have to do some silly things just to see if God was still listening to my prayers.  Once I asked Him to send down a piece of plain white cloth from no where. Less than a minute later I saw a beautiful all white bird flying down to my bedroom window. That was so comforting, even though I was going through the toughest time in my life.  I just knew that God was with me and loves me.\nRemember this...\nHeb 11:13 All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance. And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth.\n\nI'll make you another example.  My grandma prayed for over 35 years for my grandpa to be saved. Everyone thought she was crazy (including their children). But one morning, I saw him take all his expensive bottles of whiskey and pour them out on the drain. From then on, he never looked back.  He loved the Lord till his death.  \n\nJesus Loves You and I do too

I think sometimes we shut and open doors ourselves, and then say that it is God playing games with us. I think you just need a bit more time, and patience with what God is doing in your life. Allow yourself time to hear God. \n\nI also think God has moved you on to a new level with Him. That is maybe a bit more difficult than where you were previously. That is why this seems a bit more difficult to figure out. God is constantly wanting us to move forward, and to move higher. Relax in what God wants, and if you are not sure, then just wait a while. \n\nNothing happens in our timing, no matter how hard we try to control time we can not. Also, a big thing for me, is to go on what peace I have. If I have complete peace, not a shadow of a doubt, then I know that it is what God wants. But if there is even a smallest of a fraction of doubt. Then I know that I should not pursue that what I was wanting to. \n\nKeep praying and asking God for the answer. He will give you the answer, maybe the answer is already given, but you yourself are opening and closing doors... \n\nThis could be also a big test for you, to see how much you are willing to give up for God. Sometimes, when we give up one thing, God gives us something far greater than what we ever imagined. \n\nI dont know the whole situation here, but rest in God. That is the only thing I can say works. Spend time with Holy Spirit, allowing Him to work in your life, and to show you the way that you must go....\n\nI wish you all the best in what you are facing... it can not be easy, but know that God is right there with you. He never leaves your side. He knows what is best for you....

i think you are rite, in away, i know consciously i do things for God. before i was a christian i did things because i had to, or someone was going to be mad....now, its a bit different, i do things for others, because God wants me to and because of the new love i have now, for other people....God put that there though.and, yes, i do hope for the blessings of God. and I'm sure at times/and times to come i will want some acknowledgment...but ill take a deep breath and remember why I'm doing what I'm doing...and ask God for forgiveness..... thank you for the good question.  God bless you

uh no.\nmore later have to get on with the day.\n\nthere are three God Heads, in One Jesus the Holy Spirit and God the Father. One in agreement, one in power and part of it is the very mystery of God.\n\nwe are falliable, unknowing humans and He is an all knowing, loving God who reveals Himself through creation, the Bible the life of Jesus and His intimacy with those who call upon Him out of a pure heart.\n\nIsaiah 55:6-11\n6. \nSeek the Lord while He may be found;\ncall to Him while He is near. \n7. \nLet the wicked one abandon his way,\nand the sinful one his thoughts; \nlet him return to the Lord,\nso He may have compassion on him,\nand to our God, for He will freely forgive. \n8. \n"For My thoughts are not your thoughts,\nand your ways are not My ways."[This is] the Lord's declaration. \n9.\n "For as heaven is higher than earth, \nso My ways are higher than your ways,\nand My thoughts than your thoughts. \n10. \nFor just as rain and snow fall from heaven,\nand do not return there\nwithout saturating the earth,\nand making it germinate and sprout,\nand providing seed to sow\nand food to eat, \n11. \nso My word that comes from My mouth\nwill not return to Me empty,\nbut it will accomplish what I please,\nand will prosper in what I send it [to do]." \n\nhave a good week, interesting ques.\nGBU

I am not scared but watchful.  God offers a personal peace to everyone.  I know that the awful things of this world will one day come a end and that I will live with Jesus.  I find His promises of comfort in the scripture and know that He will protect me if I just let Him.  Don't be afraid for things are only to get worse never better.  Find quite time with God and lean not on your own understanding but His.

Amen, and God bless you.  They just don't get it.  Like I have said before, you don't have to believe it, you just have to do it.  Some feel that People who have faith in God, are weak.  They feel that  They just can't handle the world on the their own, without believing in something.  It is not understood, that chapter and verse are recited, because it is God's word, and we are not to add to, or take away from it, so we have to quote it exactly.\n\nI witness God's works every day. And for those who have never asked, and received God's blessings, how very sad.\n\nI am so happy someone verbalized this.  Good job!\n\nGod Bless

Now, just why are you so concerned about what God might, or might not do in the future? Did not Jesus say to stop worrying and to seek first the kingdom and God's righteousness? "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." \n\nIs it necessary for you to know how John's prophecies will work out, or when? Why is the outcome for other people filling your mind when the big issue is, "Can I glorify God today?" If you spend each day considering how to honour and praise God, he will take care of your future. \n\nThe book of Revelation is all about The Big Picture - what's going on back-stage, behind the scenes of this troubled earth. When we're taking part in life we see and understand little, and with frightening speed, it's time for us to leave the stage of earthly life. Revelation comforts believers as they have their eyes lifted up and away, to see how God defeats the powers of darkness. That's his job. Make the most of each day and trust in God for the future. Now, why don't you turn to Matthew chapter 5 and get your feet back on terra firma?
