I just blogged about toilets in dreams and realized - I can't blog about that on Father's Day!
Then I thought about my heavenly Father and thought - I'm blogging about Him today. Since today is all about honoring Him as well as our earthly fathers.
I've noticed that in some cases when my earthly father shows up in a dream, he symbolizes my heavenly Father. If my earthly father shows up with my mother in the dream, he usually symbolizes the earthly parental role.
In the positive, a father can represent an authority, creator, source or inheritance. In the negative, a father can also represent satan. Remember satan is called the father of lies in John 8:44.
A Dream About My Dads
A while back I had a dream where I was in my bed and I saw a black spirit above my head. This spirit dove into my head and I started thrashing around in my bed. While I was trying to get this thing out of my head, I saw the face of my earthly father. I knew that if I could just get to him, he'd remove this spirit and I'd be all better. Then I woke up.
Immediately I knew that I had been attacked in the middle of the night. (Black spirits are never positive.) I also knew why. The day before I had spent four hours talking to this guy in the park about new age religion, which was confusing me. I knew that my earthly father in the dream represented God. I knew that if I could get before Him, He would remove this confusion. I literally asked God to remove all thoughts of the conversation. He did. I can't even tell you anything about the conversation. This all came about in my intimate time with God right after I woke up.
Have you ever dreamed about your earthly father, realizing later that your earthly father represented our heavenly Father? Please share.

Have a wonderful Father's Day!
