permanently and one of the ways is through dreams.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In <em>Job<\/em> 33 it is clearly expressed that\u00a0\u201cin dreams, in night vision, when a lethargy falls upon men, while they are asleep in their beds, then He opens the ears of men.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, dreams have a meaning that we can understand.<\/p>\n<p>And they are the result of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why does God communicate with us?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>To reveal His plans and purposes.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>God shows us things ahead of time, because He wants to give us a vision beyond our present states, so that we find peaceful solutions to the problem areas of our lives.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It gives us anticipations of the future to ensure such that we will have time to prepare and make the right decisions.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And also so that we can see and hear the answers to our prayers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And why does God use dreams?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Because we are not always open to hearing His Voice.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And during our dreams, it bypasses the shell we have around our hearts, which can make us deaf to hearing.<\/p>\n<p>Dreams bypass our self-defense mechanisms and preconceived notions.<\/p>\n<p>And then God can warn you to change the way you listen to what He is telling you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sometimes there is a premonition.\u00a0If a dream occurs three times or more, it may be a premonition [or even just once].<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes, we have dreams that give us special instructions or guidance on how to move forward in a certain situation.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes they advise us about a wrong direction we have taken.<\/p>\n<p>And they show us the sins in our hearts, which our conscious minds refuse to recognize.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And how can we know that a dream is from God?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>You can always identify when a dream comes from God, because it will leave a tremendous lasting impression on you.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It will be clear and not diffuse, and it will affect your life.<\/p>\n<p>And\u00a0<strong>another sign of confirmation that the dream is from God can be something as simple as a redundancy.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A redundancy that is not natural but supernatural.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes we can recognize God&#8217;s Voice in a dream because it is part of an ongoing conversation.<\/p>\n<p>Either a priest preaches the same message that you just received in a dream, or events happen to you that day that echo what you have seen in the night.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe a friend calls you and repeats the same message, or you are watching the scene unfold before your eyes in another person, that same day.<\/p>\n<p>Or\u00a0<strong>like in this story recently written by the famous Christian writer Rod Dreher, about what happened to the family of a Catholic friend named Pete, <\/strong>where it is clear that the Holy Spirit is very active.\u00a0And that His hand can be seen in many things that may seem like coincidences, but are understood in a very different light when seen through the eyes of faith.<\/p>\n<p><strong>His friend Pete comes from a large Catholic family of eight siblings, although some have fallen away from the faith.<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube

he said he saw Jesus in his dream, and Jesus, pointing to Dan, who was standing near Him, said: <em>\u201cDo you remember him?\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Then the brothers discerned that perhaps he was already in Heaven or on a higher level of purgatory.<\/p>\n<p>And they continued praying and offering mortifications.<\/p>\n<p>And\u00a0<strong>a few weeks later Pete and his family went on vacation, and while they were visiting a tourist cave, their ten-month-old son Ed couldn&#8217;t stop crying no matter what his parents did.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The baby&#8217;s middle name was Dan in honor of the deceased.<\/p>\n<p>And\u00a0<strong>when the crying turned to screaming, a desperate Pete looked up and said, &#8220;Dan, please help me.&#8221;\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And instantly Ed stopped crying and fell softly asleep.\u00a0It was absolutely miraculous.<\/p>\n<p>From there he began to have the feeling that Dan was interceding for him, and that perhaps he was already in Heaven.<\/p>\n<p>And sometime later Nicky Eltz&#8217;s book came into her hands, in which she reports about Mar\u00eda Simma and the souls in purgatory that appear to her, and which is precisely called<em> &#8220;Get us out of here.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Well, that&#8217;s it,<\/strong> what we wanted to tell about God&#8217;s communication through dreams and with a very surprising case of a soul from purgatory asking for help through dreams.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And I would like to ask you<\/strong> if you have had any dreams that you think came from God or not.
