Victory!

This post describes a dream I had after Fire baptism at church. 'Tricia had prophesied to me that i would have supernatural dreams and would have dreams for the nation (USA) as well. That same night and the following two nights I sure did have some notable dreams. This is the one dream that impacted me most:


In this dream, I remember walking down the corridor of a second story house with many doors. It reminded me of Bourbon Street in New Orleans with its two story buildings with signs and posters on the walls. The signs and posters were displays of dreams and thoughts that had tormented me to pursue sexual sin in my life, and the things that I still had not forgotten about from all that I had seen and felt during these moments. Before I knew it, I found myself in my bed trying to sleep and wondering about these thoughts. As I lay there and thought about these thoughts, I remembered all the times when I had these thoughts that led the desire in me to sin in this way. I suddenly felt the want to watch pornography, and I thought about searching the web for it like I had done in the past. I turned around in my bed to stare at my pillow and it somehow turned into a touch screen computer. It turned into a desktop with that green plain background from windows and links to things. I clicked on the internet browser, went to the search tool bar and activated a keyboard to type the word “porn”…

However, as I begin to type this word, I had no sooner typed the letter P that I felt an enemy of this desire tugging at my heart, something I knew was right. It was so compelling that I listened to it and followed what it was leading me to do. Outside of the dream, it is a feeling that I already know. It is when the Holy Spirit prompts me to do something. I quickly erased the letter P and typed “the truth about Jacob’s lambs” and then pressed enter. I was quickly transported to another world where I was lying on a cliff overlooking an expanse of sea. I soon saw a large silver cross right in front of me embedded on the ground, and my eyes became fixated on dramatic still views (like still photos) of each of the four corners of this cross. First the North end, the South, the East, and the West in succession. I then turned back and saw the devil looking intently at me with a bewildered look in his face. He looked like he had fought a war and this was the end for him. His eyes gazed intently at this cross and his face showing me a defeated and helpless foe. I then turned and looked at the cross fully, it was radiant, a perfectly cut crystal and powerful beyond measure…this was the end of the dream.

I woke up confused about all that I had seen but I had a feeling of victory. I am certain that this dream represented me having victory over the addiction and patterns i developed with sexual sin. There is still much more I want to tell you about this dream, like what "the truth in Jacob's lambs" means, but i don't want this to be a really long post. On another note, I still do not understand why the devil looked like an anime character from the G Gundam Wing series in my dream…(that's a detail for all those who have ever seen this corny anime)...
