God Gives Dreams and Visions
Joel 2:28And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: 29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.
Acts 2:16But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;
17And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
18And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy
God can give us revelation through dreams and vision that we may not be able to receive at times in a more common way. Our carnal mind sometimes hinders us from understanding Him. He can show us a situation we are in, what we are to do or something that will happen.
All through the Bible God gave dreams and visions to His people. Here are just a few examples:
Daniel: Daniel 1:17, Daniel 2:1
Jacob: Genesis 31:11
Joseph: Matthew 1:20, Matthew 2:13
Ananias: Acts 9:10
Peter: Acts 10:17
Paul:Acts 16:9
