Job 33:15-16 says, "In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls upon men, in slumberings upon the bed; then He opens the ears of men, and seals their instruction." Dreams are a vital way for God to speak to us and because these are recurring and easily remembered, it may well be His voice speaking to you. "Buildings" often suggest the place your life's destiny is centered in at present. I was wondering if your church plant is in a non-church building right now like a theatre or warehouse? The darkness of the dream and the "danger" of it may represent the spiritual hindrances you are experiencing. If this is the Lord speaking to you, and only you know if this resonates, He's letting you know that He knows what you are going through and that He is in it with you, encouraging you to stand, inspite of possible feelings of wanting to escape the resistance. The "house" speaks of family, and may be what your new church family feels like or what your literal family is experiencing. Again the Lord speaking to let you know the enemy is the source of resistance but the Lord is present to help you and your "family" through it. <br />I know this may not be what you were looking for, but thought it might be encouraging. My husband & I planted two churches and it certainly is not for the fainthearted. Praying for great success for you and your pastoral team, In Jesus name, Sharon (Murphy) MahoneySharon Mahoneyhttps://www.facebook.com/?ref=tn_tnmn#!/sharon.murphymahoneynoreply@blogger.com
