Gideon's Dream
9That night the LORD said to Gideon, “Get up and go down against the camp, for I have given it into your hands. 10But if you are afraid to do so, then go down to the camp with your servant Purah 11and listen to what they are saying. Then your hands will be strengthened to attack the camp.” So he went with Purah his servant to the outposts where armed men were guarding the camp.
12Now the Midianites, Amalekites, and all the other people of the East had settled in the valley like a swarm of locusts, and their camels were as innumerable as the sand on the seashore. 13And as Gideon arrived, a man was telling his friend about a dream. “Behold, I had a dream,” he said, “and I saw a loaf of barley bread come tumbling into the Midianite camp. It struck the tent so hard that the tent overturned and collapsed.”
14His friend replied: “This is nothing less than the sword of Gideon son of Joash, the Israelite. God has delivered Midian and the whole camp into his hands.”
Gideon’s dream was from God, letting him know “for I have given it into your hands.”
A man had a dream, “and I saw a loaf of barley bread come tumbling into the Midianite camp. It struck the tent so hard that the tent overturned and collapsed.”
Martin Luther King Jr had a dream as his famous quote says, I had a dream.
I had a dream, a lion walked up to me and I played dead while it mouthed me. Then I woke up. Was God speaking to me, was it meaningful or the dinner I ate that night?
God uses dreams to speak to us and the Bible is full of many examples.
What have you been dreaming about?
Blessings, David
