Usually I don't remember my dreams and this one was really interesting.
I was playing golf and was at the green about to make a put. It was nice midday sunlight
All of a sudden I heard a loud thunderclap and I looked up in front of me and there was a massive storm cloud rapidly forming and spreading across the sky as I was watching it briefly.
I felt safe with this storm bit realised I need to get into shelter, but the only shelter around was in the direction of the storm so I started running into the storm and I was marvelling at the black clouds and all of a sudden a bolt of lightning fell and spilt into 5 branches striking the ground.
It didn't startle me or frighten me but it woke me up after hearing the lightning strike.
I lay awake thinking the Strom is the natural result of forces above us instead of running from the storm it was best to embrace it and weather it out, but the lightning had a sense of God's power behind it. For some reason seeing the lightning comforted me
I believe that prayers are very real in determining outcomes. I was terrified before the 2016 election. 17 candidates. I begged God for guidance and discernment. Iistened very carefully to each candidate. The answer was Trump. I knew. I just knew. I am sure I am not alone.
Random: One cool thing about Biblical Hebrew is that letters are numbers and they have meanings. 17 represents victory.
Just listening to this song and thought of your dream

Ty ty ty. Very spiritual and powerful ?
That's a great dream!, I see it that God has a path for us that gets hidden In the problems we have in this world.
But it will be made clear and obvious the forgotten road will be the only way when we see past our problems
Is how and what we choose to perceive a key?
Maybe it's like Daniel in the Lion's Den, or Shadrach, Meschach and Abednego.
Onlookers saw ravenous lions and fiery flames. They walked with angels amid sweet breezes.
Or the first passover, when those whose doors (senses?) were marked with the lamb's blood/(Life) stayed peacefully safe and uplifted.
Or Lot's wife, who chose to look back/focus on the destruction and was transformed into a 'pillar of salt'.
It also implies a small portion being 'leaven' for the rising of the entire loaf.
:)
(ADD: By the way, this is one gorgeous discussion + full of synchronicity.
I just left an online dream/Jungian/synchronicity gathering. And so many of the dreams shared here, have elements that also arose in that workshop.
This topic seems so dreamlike too. We seem to be creatively taking part in realities much 'higher up and further in.)
.
It made me think of this passage from Matthew 5: 43-48
43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, 45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47 And if you greet your brethren only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so? 48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.
In the bible rainwaters have a dual meaning. It can represent either waters from heaven that bring life, or the waters of judgement that bring destruction.
Wow that is deep, the storm from God does both bring hope and restoration to the faithful and also judgement and destruction of the wicked.
Amen to God sorting this world out
Thank you for sharing, very interesting! Just yesterday I also had a dream about an insane lightning storm. It wasn't normal, the skies were lighting up and were all dark but I didn't feel fear either. I saw my dog run towards me (recently passed) and we went inside and cozied up on the couch.
Here's a tip: Start writing down your dream as soon as you wake up - write down as much as you can remember, any detail that might seem unimportant. This practice will, magically, make you remember more dreams (multiple a night) and will prevent forgetting them. It can be very revealing (self-realization) to study our own dreams for patterns or reoccurring symbols, objects, people, as they are reflections of the mind.
I'll start doing that and crazy we both had storm dreams recently.
We are the storm
FondueFerret is 100% correct. Amongst other things it will tell some part of your subconscious that the dreams have value and you will magically start remembering more. It's not about remembering dreams you have had but ascribing perceived value to the dreams you have yet to have so that you will remember them. It is like setting intentions to do so. Have a look into Lucid dreaming.
Technique:- If you were, for example, to set an alarm that goes off every hour at which time you asked yourself if you were dreaming or not, sooner or later the answer will be "yes I am dreaming" and then things get really interesting. It is indistinguishable from reality until you fall back into the unaware dreamstate or wake up from the shear excitement of witnessing the mind modelling internal mental stimuli instead of external sensory data. It's like walking a tightrope. There are many techniques for invoking it....and i don't mean some vague notion you are dreaming but a manifestation of full waking consciousness into the dreamstate. It's a bit lifechanging.
I will try it as this dream felt somewhat important to understand and others have also had the same dreams or feelings recently
Haha we may be crazy or we may be unto something! Do you also have a general feeling of something big looming? NCSWIC!
NCSWIC!!
Wow that is crazy, kind of sounds like the war in heaven but to then go immediately back to reality shows God is in control and he's the God of miracles and wonders
.....This guy Lucids!
Awesome dream. Better yet, awesome that you were comforted by the lightening! God's power is comforting.
Lets hope it's prescient and imminent! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for reading, the storm felt good and not ominous but it looked angry, sounds weird to say that but dreams are weird
Yeah, dreams are surreal and heavy on the feelings and emotions elicited by the experience. My dreams have involved ecstatic states of joy or abject terror from seemingly simple things. Your dream sounds like what we need right now -Bring it!
I'm happy I mentioned it, usually if I remember a dream it leaves my mind but I thought about this one several times today which is unusual.
Did some quick research, in the Hebrew language numbers mean something can have a deeper understanding .Like in the bible 12, 40, 10 etc are repeated theres importance behind this. You saw 5 lightning that piqued my interest not one of the numbers we'd think of like 7. The Fifth letter of the alef bet is ה heh it represents thought into action (Gods creative power). But to say five in hebrew is Hamesh which is saving, to be saved, or to be rescued. You ran into the storm chaos for shelter &found comfort in GOD thats a very Hebrew understanding of Peace(Shalom) peace within it in Unity with God vs todays of removal from calamity.******INTERPRETATION ****God will rescue and gives peace within the uncertainty and chaos dont run from it.
Nice! I literally just left a comment further up about the number 17 in Hebrew! I did not see this comment yet. Great minds! :)
Haha it would take this forum/site to come across another thats similar minded. When things correct out and we dont have to be anonymous hopefully mods can help organize group meet ups bbqs have some good conversation.
That is a great explanation I never thought to check in Hebrew gematria.
Just came to me now that also heh in paleo Hebrew means hand. Like the hand of God/ 5 fingers
I love your explanation though
Thank you! Yeah That right hand can go down another rabbit hole haha. Im always a bit apprehensive on sharing (wont bother you with testimony haha ).But Your response means alot
Please do share your testimony, I love hearing how people come to the faith
Hope its not too long and it makes sense.
Turned away in college I was studying science and teachers were blatant this disproves God. I went to church and said this is what i was told what do you have to say to refute. What i got was just have faith just believe. I stepped away didnt live wild but psychologically i realized atheism if im consistent with it .Everything is pointless it leads to Nihilsm I was in a depressed state. Then I started noticing inconsistency in the sciences. Lightning struck primordial water repeatedly and over time life formed(more complexity but still the explanation is stupid).In science the Universe was eternal before Eistein theory of relativity ,that brings up universe began but Something cant come from nothing what caused it? String theory quantum fluctuation etc still a force prior started this(God?).
I then Studied all the religions to see what they said, many believe in eternal universe makes it easy to X out. Islam was a no Jihad 9th Sura. Now im back to there is a God. I worked security I would read was challenged to read Bible they gave me one. John 14 saw oh thats how you get Holy Spirit helps me overcome anger. I go back to church but now im studying bible. Realized in my gifts I can maybe teach and got dragged to preach. Thats when it went down hill . I started seeing what was being taught was different from what i was reading I now went to prove myself wrong studied took crazy notes wanted to agree with him but kept quiet. But i approached him after a sermon for clarity I asked. You said demas was strong for God was diligent but he fell in love with the world turned away, and hes in heaven . I quoted the Bible says those who love the world the love of the father is not in them. After that he had it out for me. I was shunned off a question .
i Kept in the Bible by Gods grace my path was established out of church or i wouldve fell off. Prior had Found out about Logos word study under him but it was only the greek no old testament thats the law done away . I saw him others break down the bible in greek but still conform it to their understanding didnt teach out the books hebrews ,james ,titus, peter was weird. After being shunned I started digging into Hebrew because its Jesus language his culture we are grafted through him and found Hebrew is a different understanding worldview than English Greek.I looked onto the early history found out about the Natsarim( Messianics) that Paul was called the leader of in Acts. I still trying going to churches it normally goes lets disciple him teach him. What i wanted was fellowship but Id go along to try be open. The best example of how it normally goes was one tried to teach me the word is like a sword cutting spirit &soul. They said we dont know the difference in them but it does. I went "you mind if i share a possible answer" explained in torah we are defined as ruach nafesh and neshama and how they vary . They laughed at me said that was the best explanation theyve heard but poo pooed it. would happen many other times id offer heres a perspective then after get treated me as a know it all "you think youre too smart, im prideful ,in discussion why do i always have an answer " but its fine when im just sitting nodding to them ...
Thats why Im reluctant my intent, character, attributes get attacked so i shut up. Psalms 1 I feel was written to keep me strong haha. I have a spiritual elder(Lutheran origin) he works with me , at My friends church I go to help out serving when they do, i have a brother in christ (meshiach haha) we iron each other just talk for hrs . and there are outcasts to the assembly God has directed my way who are hurt and have questions and are seeking .
Thanks for sharing
That's interesting your really searching for truth.
I was also unimpressed with science, the amount of luck and time they rely on for their world or simple cell to form is unbelievable and then claim the God of the gaps against us. I believed in God from a young age and hated that I had to write down as if evolution was true and had debates and asked a lot of questions that no-one could answer.
So like you I learnt more science and that bought me to the Bible, the Bible is a very complex book and if you do what you do, studying it in koine and Hebrew the depth and complexity increases greatly.
Sorry bout your bad experience in church, there's so many different spirits of church'es and looks like you went into one that only wants the top levels of studying doctrine.
I'm sure you will find the right church but if not study it yourself as the Jews have for thousands of years and go to church for your Eucharist and fellowship.
Best of luck ??
Appreciate you and your words, thank you God Bless
Sorry for block i dont know how to format on this.
One way is to shift down to create a full 3 spaces between/below a paragraph, for example.
Like this.
It slightly separates the text. :)
Thank you! , it did something but its not as clear as a defined spacing as yours ill keep messing around .
Did you make the putt? I'll assume it was for eagle.
I don't know lol I hit it then my eyes were drawn to the clouds and didn't know if it potted.
It looked like it was going in
We'll just say it was on hole 17, for eagle, you made it, and then woke up.
Ill agree to that, but that means I won our bet and you owe me 20 bucks lol
I really like the people here.
Dude, almost got hit by lightning when I was ten. Every hair on the body stands up and knows it’s coming. Not worried, the storm warns you. [spez] thinking about it, I ran into the storm and it hit behind me. Don’t ask me how many feet, because it’s probably 17. Lol.
This is Super Cool.
What a cool dream! Hmm, the lightning branches out into 5 pieces and strikes the ground. This must have some significance but I can't think what. Usually I'm good at interpreting dreams since mine are always so vivid, but this detail is very intriguing. Perhaps it means one major or important act is about to happen soon, that will spread into multiple things happening at once. Like perhaps the audit of the Maricopa Co. ballots will finally reveal the election fraud, and this will spark a chain reaction leading other states to do massive overhauls of their votes. One can only hope. And this is only if the MSM doesn't cover up the Arizona story with something else like the Chauvin trial or something else.
I think you nailed it. The election was decided by the outcome in "the five battleground states." And lightning sure could symbolize the power of God striking from above.
You're onto something about it having meaning as it was a quick flash but it almost highlighted to me that It broke into 5 and then struck.
I don't know what the 5 means though
Five states? AZ, MI, PA, GA and ? Maybe VA or NJ?
NH
The lightning with the light in the darkness
5 branches = military, Navy will probably cuck out Army Air Force Coast Guard Space Force Marines
NCSWIC.
I had a dream I was sitting in my kitchen, looking out the window, and it was very dark, the rain was falling, the wind was howling, and the wind was blowing, threatening to drop trees on the house. Then I looked back at my iPhone, and realized it wasn’t a dream after all, it was Pittsburgh.
That said, every time I have asked God to guide me, comfort me, to give me peace, he has responded. And he continues to work in my life, most of the time without me even recognizing it. I know he has a plan for me that he has not yet revealed to me; but I know that in some capacity it will be helping others that are in need.
Reading into dreams can be misleading or even dangerous.
Dreams are formed by purged thoughts. So it’s a big jumbled mess of all your thoughts that the brain has decided can be discarded.
It says in Acts 2:17 that God will give his people dreams and visions in the last days.
Most of my dreams I don't bother to remember but this one was more vivid and stayed in my mind.
I wouldn't go so far to make all my decisions form forcing dreams but when I get ones like that I will write them down
No. Prophetic dreams are very real. I have had the dreams you describe. Not the same at all. The dreams that "tell" are different. Real. Sounds and voices are real. There is no relationship to vague psychological reenactment of past experiences. You cannot judge someone else's experiences.
I didn't judge, I made a valid point.
I'm not discounting the possibility of premonition and dream based messages. The point I was trying to make is that the vast majority of dreams are just garbage filtering.
Thank you. Of course the vast majority of dreams are as you describe, but this conversation was about those exceptions.
The thing I've learned from my experience with vivid dreams is that they can be driven entirely by my desires.
When my wife and I went through a rough spell all I could think about for months was what it would be like if we worked through things and got back together. One night I had a vivid dream, perfect in every detail of us getting back together. I saw it all happening, felt it all happening. For weeks I expected it to play out exactly like the dream, but it didn't. Yes we worked through things, but it took a tremendous amount of effort by both of us and nothing of that vivid dream came true.
In the end that vivid dream was nothing more than a massive build up of all those thoughts that had been circling relentlessly through my head for weeks... months.
We've been on edge since the election was stolen, praying, hoping and relentlessly obsessing about small details trying to find some proof that this nightmare is going to end and freedom will prevail.
It is much safer to assume a vivid dream is nothing more than a large scale garbage dump than to get emotionally invested into something that may not come to fruition.
Certainly worth talking about though, sometimes that can help sort your own thoughts out.
I have seldom known the message until the event took place but then I could work it out. Perhaps you needed to make an honest effort to find peace with the result I don't know but for me it's been too often to be a coincidence. Oh and when it became too much I simply asked it to stop until I could handle more. And it did.
I had plenty of conversations with God. My wife and I did work through it. The whole thing brought me back to my knees.
I was only tested to my limit and not pushed over it.
I’m just saying that my experience has shown, God is real and dreams are garbage removal.
I see. I don't question your experience. You did find an answer. And it's yours.
I also have vivid dreams that are prognostic. They have proven themselves valid. Trust your Angel's. Trust your instincts. Pray.
It made 5 forks? It's striking the 5 pillars of the NWO..
The lightening could equal solar flares. Look it up.
Silly you.. True story, I had a Pleiadian babe snuggle up with me last night. Glowing mother of pearl white skin. GLOWING. Sweet as could be. Hope she returns. Dimensions are expanding for those that choose. Pray for Awareness; turn off the NOISE so you can hear. Birds and critters make more sense, than the talking heads, The Best is YET TO COME
