Understanding Dreams from a Christian Perspective: A Biblical Approach to Interpretation.
Decoding Divine Messages: Biblical Insights into Dream Interpretation.
Have You Ever Wondered If Your Dreams Mean Something?
Have you ever woken up from a dream that felt too vivid, too significant, to ignore? Perhaps it left you with questions, emotions, or even a sense of urgency. Throughout the Bible, God spoke to His people through dreams—Joseph, Daniel, and even the wise men who visited Jesus (Matthew 2:12). Could He still be speaking through dreams today?
In this post, we’ll explore how to approach dream interpretation from a Christian perspective. Plus, I’d like to offer you a chance to receive a free dream interpretation based on biblical principles—just share your dream in the comments below.
The Biblical Foundation of Dreams.
The Bible is full of stories where God used dreams to reveal His plans, provide warnings, and offer encouragement. Here are a few key verses that highlight the importance of dreams:
Job 33:14-16 – "For God speaks again and again, though people do not recognize it. He speaks in dreams, in visions of the night, when deep sleep falls on people as they lie in their beds."
Genesis 40:8 – "Do not interpretations belong to God?"
Acts 2:17 – "In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams."
These verses remind us that dreams can be a powerful way God communicates with His people. But, as with any form of communication, they must be interpreted with care, wisdom, and biblical discernment.
How to Discern the Meaning of a Dream.
Not every dream comes directly from God—some are simply reflections of our subconscious, daily experiences, or even spiritual warfare. Here’s a biblical approach to interpreting your dreams:
1. Pray for Understanding – Ask the Holy Spirit for clarity and insight (James 1:5).
2. Compare with Scripture – God’s messages will never contradict His Word.
3. Look for Symbols – Many biblical dreams used powerful symbols (e.g., Pharaoh’s dream in Genesis 41).
4. Consider Emotions & Context – Was the dream peaceful, a warning, or a message of instruction?
5. Seek Godly Counsel – Sometimes, others can help confirm or clarify an interpretation.

Emotional Intelligence vs. Neurodivergence.
In the ever-expanding landscape of human cognition, two terms often pop up: emotional intelligence (EI) and neurodivergence. They're like the Batman and Superman of the brain world—both fascinating, both powerful, but quite different from each other.

Light the Spirit of Winter
The winter season often holds bittersweet nostalgic memories. In the Southern hemisphere, locals will recall long winter days and a BarB at the beach, but in the Northern hemisphere, the ghosts of Christmas past are released during the longest nights before solstice. For many, 'tis the season of Anhedonia. The lack of interest, enjoyment or pleasure is a common symptom of many mental health conditions.

In Genesis, when God saw the children of Adam building the Tower of Babel, among other things He said, “And now nothing that they intend to do will be forbidden to them.” When you intend to do something, you call upon the forces of attraction, so it becomes easy for you to do what you intend and dream of.

Great approach! Great work!
