DREAMS

A God who prepares in advance. Praise the Lord.
To end the story, we drove back safely home praising God for His faithfulness.
“Heavenly Help is on the way”. So do not worry.
“Great is His faithfulness”
Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord his God, the Maker of
heaven and earth, the sea, and everything in them - the Lord, who remains faithful forever.
(Psalm 146:5, 6)
79. TIME TO LEAVE A CHURCH AND JOIN ANOTHER
There came a time in our lives when we (me and my wife) had to take a decision to either
remain in the Episcopal Church that we had been from the time that we were born or to move
to a new church where people worshipped in Spirit and in Truth. A Pastor that we had met
sometime back was inviting us to leave our tradition bound church and join his church which
was a Bible believing church where prayer, worship and the Word of God were given utmost
importance. We were in a dilemma whether to stay where we were and intermittently go and
worship in the new church or to totally give up our old pattern of worship. We kept the matter
in our daily prayers and ask God for counsel.
One of those nights, I saw a dream wherein I was travelling in the engine room of a train with
the minister of the Church that we were in. After a while I saw a station approaching and got
ready to get down as the train slowed down. When the minister saw me getting ready to
disembark, he asked me not to get down but keep travelling. Reluctantly, I gave in to his advice.
The train moved again after stopping at the station and as we travelled further, a group of
people came in to the engine room and showed their surprise when they saw me. One of them
said, “Why did you not get down at that station? If you had, you would have been in time for
the other train that you had to catch. Pity you.” I realized my folly, but it was too late.
The interpretation of this dream was easy. It was God’s time for us to move to the new Church
where we were being invited. We did it without any delay and never had any regrets regarding
the same, until it was time for us to start our own Church.
Since you are my rock and my fortress, for the sake of your name lead and guide me. (Psalm
31:3)
80. SPARKS AND FIRE
God usually shows dreams of trouble coming to our lives so that we may pray and the problems
may be averted, but sometimes, we may not pray enough for the problem to be averted. In this
case, I did not understand the dream until it happened. Perhaps I thought more about the
matter rather than pray.
In the early stages of my life as a believer, one night I saw a dream. I was watching rain falling
on the roof of our house. But there was something interesting. The rain droplets that fell from
