Spiritual Warfare

For most of my life, God has talked to me in my dreams.  Though, it wasn't until the 2010 summer after taking a dream interprentation series of classes that I understood it was God speaking to me and there was nothing to fear. It seems that the timeframe for prophetic dreams coming true has been shortening greatly.  It used to be years, then it condensed down to 1-1.5 yrs, then down to months.  Sometimes now I dream things prophetically a few weeks prior.

It seems like this is a season of acceleration and the dreams are rarely literal, rather they are figurative and mainly symbolic.  Last Fall, I began having an increasing amount of spiritual warfare dreams that entailed lots of darkness, creatures and animals that sumbolized things like lies, deceptions, threats, death, the enemy.  The dreams are very vivid. 

Since my last post, the past 4 months my kids and I have been under great spiritual attack that have manifested in this natural, physical world.  As a result, I have dug my heels in and gotten my kids and I deeply grounded in God's Word.  My daughter suggested we do a "Read Through The Bible In A Year".  We are reading at a faster rate and hoping to complete the whole Bible by summer's end.

God's Word is so rich, and read aloud together as a family where each person takes turns reading, God has really been impressing His Word deeply into our hearts, minds, and souls.  He has been preparing for this great spiritual battle we are in, giving the strength to endure and persevere.  It's been so exhausting and  challenging.

Our prayer life has become deeper and richer, sometimes so very desperate.   A couple weeks ago, God activated the gift of Speaking in Tongues.  I praise God for my friend, JP, for assisting me here.  God bless him.  The words are just pouring out, though, I have no clue what is being said - utterances of the Holy Spirit to God.

I've also been using John Eckhardt's book on Breaking Curses and Routing Demons.  It's 2 books in one and very powerful with lots and lots of prayers & verses, as well as explanations. 

Put on the full armour of God every single day.
