Do you often wake up feeling there was a significant message in your
dream, but you’re just not sure what it is? Like Daniel and Joseph, do
you long to be able to help others understand their own dreams and win
them to Christ as you explain His night messages to them? Wouldn't it be
nice if you could receive mid-course corrections from the Lord while
you sleep? Do you wish you could be receiving divine inspiration,
creative solutions to problems, and direction from the Lord during that
third of your life that you’re “just” sleeping?
Understanding Dreams
Man's view of dreams
Do you feel like sleep is a "waste of time"? Do you usually only
remember bits and pieces of your dreams that don’t make any sense? Or
worse yet, not remember any of your dreams at all?
God's view of dreams
The Bible declares that God counsels us at night through our dreams
(Ps. 16:7) and is full of examples and illustrations of this principle.
In the dreams in the Bible, God gives wise direction concerning the next
step to take. He grants wisdom and encourages people in faith. He shows
them how to escape coming calamity and how to provide for their
families in the midst of imminent disasters. God even enters into
covenants with people and grants them gifts in their dreams!
Where this teaching will lead you
This teaching series leads you in examining every dream in the Bible
to see how they reveal and illustrate principles of Christian dream
interpretation. You will receive abundant confirmation that God speaks
to His children through their night visions (Num. 12:6; Acts 2:17).
You will also explore your own dreams, learning the language of
symbolism which your heart uses as it communicates to you God's divine
wisdom. You will learn how to let the Holy Spirit be your Teacher as you
learn to interpret God's messages to you through your dreams!
All of us can learn to hear from God during the two hours of dream
life we have each night and these training materials will coach you in
this skill.
“The best teaching I have ever seen on interpreting dreams” - Sid Roth
I
have just interviewed Mark Virkler, an extraordinarily gifted man of
God who teaches a course on understanding dreams. I have interviewed
many on this subject over the years, but Mark’s approach is different.
He is a very logical teacher. He guarantees after taking his course you
will have at least a dream a week and understand them!
I took him up on his challenge, and it is working for me. I have had
very few literal dreams in my life. And frankly, I usually ignore the
symbolic dreams. I call them “pizza” dreams. However, since I started
following Mark’s instructions, I have had dreams and I understand them!
None of the other courses have worked for me. Now I have received major
direction! I am so excited when I go to bed and look forward to God
speaking to me in my dreams.
Hear God Through Your Dreams book (divided into three main sections)
Part One
starts with twenty pages of distilled practical principles giving
precise, clear, non-contradictory, biblical guidelines for interpreting
dreams. This will equip you with the tools you need to begin
interpreting your own dreams. Part One continues by having you explore
in detail the nearly 50 dreams recorded in the Bible, using guided biblical
meditation as your method of learning. You will be asked many specific
questions about each dream and given biblical passages to refer to to
prayerfully discover God's answers. You will be asked to explore each
piece of symbolism in the dream, and to note exactly how God interprets
each symbol. In so doing, you will get a sense of how God interprets
dreams. You will learn many practical, effective principles concerning how to interpret dreams,
as well as five things you can do to help you recall your dreams. You
will be able to interpret your dreams using these clear principles.
Part Two is a repeat of the Bible Research section of
Part One with our suggested answers to the questions from the guided
meditation exercises. After you have done your own research (Part One),
you may then turn to Part Two to compare your answers with those given.
Truth is always more meaningful when you search it out yourself and
receive it by revelation from the Holy Spirit. However, once you have
done so, it is wise to then compare and submit what you have discovered
to others who have gone before you in researching the same area. Section
Two offers you the opportunity to compare your answers to the answers
that the Virklers have discovered, and perhaps gain additional
revelation.
Part Three is a repeat of Part One, section one
(Principles of Dream Interpretation). However, it adds classroom
activities, homework assignments and breaks which correspond with each
of the DVD or CD sessions, making this book an excellent manual for a
small group desiring to learn dream interpretation together. On the DVDs
and CDs, Mark demonstrates how he would approach the interpretation of a
number of dreams so you get a sense of how it is done. Then, when the
DVD is turned off, you are guided into interpreting dreams together in a
group setting. Truly this is a masterful way for you to be trained up
in the art of Christian Dream Interpretation.
