Welcome ladies to our bonus session of bride bootcamp.
And this is our dreams and dream interpretation set a session.
Hi, everyone.
I'm so excited to be here.
And I just want to start off by just saying,
I'm really excited to be here with you guys and to be here.
And I just want to say the two 22. I know what that means to me,
but I want to know what that means to you.
Yeah. I mean, well,
For a while, God had been using two 22 and 22, 22.
All of that.
And as I started and launched my, that Facebook group.
I'll try to find something that really kind of stood out.
That was different.
That gave the point of what I was trying to.
I was trying to do a book on the book of Daniel.
He knows,
maybe he reveals deep and hidden things and he knows what lies in
darkness and light dwells with him.
And so when I saw that, I'm like, Hey, that works, Daniel.
You know,
Daniel and Joseph were the two guys that we think of with dream
interpretation. So.
Let's go with that.
I liked it a whole lot better than Genesis 40 verse eight. So.
better than 48 I think. So Jake I just want you to take a few minutes to introduce yourself and
Dreams to 22.
just tell us why dreams you know did when did you start dreaming um why do you feel like uh you know
God has called you to really help people in this area you know that God speaks to us in obviously
he's been speaking in this area prolifically all the way back to the Bible time so just kind of
talk about a little bit about your passion for this area and how that came about. Sure yeah
well I'm Jake Bullard I live in the metro Atlanta area of Georgia. I'm married to Rachel
we've been married this January we'll make 18 years. I can't believe I'm saying that but
it'll be 18 years we've been together for 19 and so we've had quite the journey.
We have three boys I have a 15 year old his name is Luke I have a 11 year old named Parker
and then Caleb is six so things are wild here at our house so it's a it's a fun time but
um you know as far as dreams go you know I dreamt when I was younger but I didn't have a grid for it
I grew up in a very conservative evangelical church you had a great foundation for the Bible
and for evangelism but as far as the ways that God continues to speak to us today they were very
limited um and so when I would dream back then yeah I didn't have a grid for it didn't have
anybody to go to and so they kind of died out because I just you know they were just dreams
you know so back in 2016 the Lord really started speaking to me very prolifically so my journey
into the prophetic fully opened up and in that process one of the things that God used to speak
to me was dreams. At this point I knew they were meaning something just because they were
uh they were they were too random and they um they were just too there was just too much going
on into them so I ended up seeking out um a spiritual a lady who became a spiritual mama
she taught she taught me dream interpretations through Holy Spirit she didn't use a dream
dictionary or a book or a three-step method or any of that she would listen to my dream and then
she hey here's what the Lord is saying and every time she would she would give me the interpretation
it would just it would hit me like a ton of bricks right in the chest you know it would
penetrate my heart and so I love that that just really opened up my desire and my passion to
actually dream for myself. I remember at one point I woke up from a dream I just smiled and laughed
and was like man you really are talking to me you really are talking to me and um you know I went on
that journey and you know here we are now it's launched the Dreams 222 Facebook group in April
of last year uh we are I think we're over 2,000 members now um pretty close to it if we're not
uh and since then I've done several different trainings and then I launched a
master class to teach and train and equip people um other brothers and sisters in Christ to
understand dreams and dream interpretation and growing and grow and growing and hearing the
voice of the voice of Father through um through our dreams so I love it I love your passion for
that and really just the uh the idea of helping people to hear the voice of God because that's
what this is all about you know God speaks to us in so many different ways and I can't tell
you how many people I've run into in ministry in the last 24 years that have said you know God
doesn't talk to me you know I wish God talked to me the way he talks to you Jackie God doesn't talk
to me and and really the truth is is that they just don't recognize how God's talking to them
but you said something really important that I want to highlight you said that when you started
having dreams you realized that that was significant but I want to highlight that
dreams can be really powerful in our lives it can be powerful tools of understanding what God is
communicating to us but when we don't know how to utilize utilize them um sometimes they can
actually be detrimental to us right um when people take things at face value and they don't understand
what it is that God's saying and they kind of run off um you know for the purpose of this group
because this is a bride boot camp and married in 12 months or less I can't tell you how many women
have come to me and said well I had a dream about a guy and I just assumed that that guy was my
husband um so I've been waiting around for 15 years for this guy to ask me to marry him because
he goes to my church and he never pays any attention to me so you know kind of you know
let's just go ahead and dive right into um you know how God communicates in dreams and how that
can really go off the rails sometimes yeah so when you look at dreams understand that God is
using a metaphoric language um to to convey his point his message his desire uh laced inside of
that is your identity uh is your purpose is your destiny um there could be cautions that are coming
up that he's wanting as a good father
to tell you about, so that way you don't get in trouble, right? Thank God for those. But being
that they're metaphoric, the people, the majority of the dreams, probably 95% of the dreams and
dreamers that are out there, when you dream, you're actually dreaming about yourself. So even when you
have other people in your dreams, they are representing something else. Just as an example,
if you dream of a motherly figure, like your natural mother, maybe a stepmother, a mom,
a grandmother, or someone who was like a mother to you growing up, more than likely,
the Lord is using that person to represent Holy Spirit in that dream. When you see someone who's
like a brother or a sister in a dream, whether they're biological or just like that close of a
friend, many times they're going to be representing Jesus. This isn't 100% of the time,
there's never a one size fits all for symbols, if you will, in dreams, but they're always
representing something. And when you have a dream of a particular person, look a little bit deeper
than what they just mean in the natural, right? Look a little deeper, ask Holy Spirit, what is
this person? What does Jim mean here? What does Deborah mean? What are they symbolizing here?
Because there's probably layers to what he is trying to convey to you and that message that
he's giving you in those dreams. And so many times, when you're dreaming of people, they're
representing something of not themselves, if that makes sense. It could be their name. God uses
names all of the time. So you may need to go on a journey of exploring that name. What does it
mean in the Hebrew or in the Greek? And how does it apply in this dream? How does it all
lay out in that dream and stuff? So there's, you really have to kind of dig in, in many
cases, especially when it comes to people. Yeah, let's give an example of that. Okay, so one time,
God also taught me to interpret dreams just by the power of Holy Spirit. So never took any dream
interpretation classes or dream dictionaries, but just asking Holy Spirit, hey, what does this mean?
And allowing him to unpack that with me. So to kind of emphasize what you were just talking
about, to give the ladies an idea, I had a dream once about a preschool mom that my daughter went
to school with her daughter and the mom's name was Joy. Joy didn't have any real significance in my
life, but she was in my dream. Okay. So we need to pay attention. If someone's in your dream that
you don't really have that strong of a connection to, you need to pay attention to things about them,
you know, like where you know them from or what their name is or different things like that. So
in the dream, you know, she was pregnant. She wasn't pregnant in real life. She was pregnant
in the dream and in the pregnant, she was very pregnant. In the dream, she was very pregnant.
And during the course of this very short dream, I watched her go from being pregnant to having the
baby, to the baby quickly accelerating into growing up and running around. And when I woke
from that dream and asked the Lord what that dream meant, he said, Joy births and accelerates the
promises of God. So he's talking to me about having joy and how joy not only births the promises that
he has, you know, placed inside of us, but it also accelerates them. Remember the child's growing
really fast. So I just want to kind of give that simple example to kind of get things going here.
We already have a dream up here. Jake, what would happen if you had a recurring dream and more of a
nightmare? What should people think? Like she said, what if your dream is about dying in a fire
and you've had that dream ever since you were little? So I'm assuming that it scared you just
hearing that because I could imagine, especially as a young child. So let me address the nightmare
side of things because I actually, that's one of my favorite things to interpret is nightmares.
I know that sounds weird. How many of that is that weird to you guys that I would actually enjoy
interpreting nightmares? It's okay because it would be weird if, right? But many times when we
have those type dreams, there's even a, to me, a clearer message of your spiritual gifts,
your spiritual calling, and your spiritual identity. And the enemy is trying to keep you
from wanting to either a dream or try to keep you from going into that. Like I've had people that
said that they were in a dream and they were being choked, right? Well, to me, the enemy was trying
to keep them from using their voice because they had a story to tell. So I didn't see the dream.
So just going off of what you told me, I would say there's, the Lord is, there's a fire that you
carry inside of you that has a, with a passion for Jesus, that you want to share Jesus and the
experiences and the love.
and the love of the Father, and just knowing that He is an all-consuming fire,
and expressing that to other people to invite those people into that relationship
so that they know the fire of the love of God, that He is a good all-consuming fire,
and that you have probably an evangelical call on your life or a desire in your heart.
And I would just encourage you to step into that because the fact that you're being scared of that
tells me that the enemy is actually intimidated by that gifting that you carry.
And so I hope that whoever that was, if that resonates, please let me know in the chat here inside the Zoom
because I do like feedback, and if I'm wrong, I'm willing to take that and stuff too.
But that's kind of what I see with that dream and how I view nightmares.
Yeah, that dream was Vicky, who is a pretty long-time student of mine,
and she's been prophesied over many, many times that she's carrying an evangelistic gift.
So that's definitely right on there.
So yeah, so Vicky, it's not a nightmare anymore, is it?
No, and that makes me feel really better because I had that dream again just recently,
and I woke up and all I could do was cry
because last year there was a fire right in paradise, and I left way before they came to my door
because I said, oh, my dream's not happening.
I'm not dying in a fire.
So thank you so much.
Yes, amen, amen.
Yeah, because you're out in California where there actually is the fire, so awesome.
Okay, so yeah, so when you talk to people about dreams,
what do you think are the most important things that people need to know, Jake?
And you said that you didn't see it and didn't read it.
Does that mean that because people always want me to interpret their dreams,
but I always have to actually see their dream.
Do you have to see their dream too?
Like I don't hear it.
I like to see it.
It depends.
When I do consultations, I like to see it just because things are so layered.
Right.
I've grown accustomed at least to hearing a dream and, you know,
being able to press into Holy Spirit to release an interpretation.
I like it both ways.
It just, you know, it kind of just depends on the scenario and stuff.
But, you know, so it just kind of really depends on the scenario.
Gotcha.
Well, let's do cliff notes or, you know, dream interpretation for dummies,
like, you know, the quick read.
So, you know, tell us what, you know,
what everybody should know about dreams,
about the way God speaks to us through dreams,
why it's important and just kind of some things that we should know about
that.
Yeah.
Well, first off,
like we've already covered is the majority of your dreams, number one,
are going to be about you.
And number two, they're going to be metaphoric in nature.
Okay.
They're parables.
Think about the way Jesus taught the majority of his teachings were in
parables.
I think there's something like 108 parables or something.
I may be wrong on that number, but there is a lot of parables.
And so anytime he wanted to give a message,
whether it was to his disciples,
feeding the 5,000 to the Pharisees or whoever was around,
he would always start something and say,
the kingdom of God is like this or the kingdom of heaven is like this.
And so he would use a parable,
which is a story laced with hidden messages and meanings in our dreams are
the same way.
One of the,
one of the reasons why I believe God uses our dreams is because we're
asleep and we can't talk, you know, I don't know about y'all,
but sometimes I like to argue with God, like, no, I can't do this or no,
I don't want to do that.
When we're asleep, he doesn't have that filter to have to fight through.
And so he's able to release these dreams to us through our subconscious,
which has no limitations.
That's why you're able to fly and run fast and stop us,
stop a car and do all the things you're able to do because he's trying to,
he's really trying to bring to light the message that of your life,
in your dreams, your destiny, your callings, like I said before,
your identity, things of that nature.
So realize number one, that your dreams are for you.
God still speaks to dreams through dreams. Number two.
So even these off the wall dreams that you may have write them down,
journal them up. Somehow I actually have a dream journal.
You can see it sitting here behind me. It's on Amazon.
You can go there and just do a search for dreams to 22 dream journal,
and you'll find it on there, but journal, journal, your dream down,
write it down, record it somehow.
So that way you can always go back to it and then seek out the
interpretation. You can do that yourself. Number one, by just saying,
Holy spirit, what are you saying to me in my dream? Joseph, you know,
I love the story of Joseph when he was in the prison, he had the,
the chief bread Baker and the cup bear,
and they both had dreams and they couldn't figure it out.
they ended up not having somebody to interpret the dreams.
And Joseph got a little mad at him and said,
is God not the one that interprets dreams?
Tell me your dream.
And here's the thing is he didn't have relationship
with Holy Spirit.
He only knew Yahweh.
Now on this side of the cross, we have Jesus,
we have the Father and we have Holy Spirit
all living inside of us.
And so we can actually go to them
and ask what does my dream mean?
So that's the next thing is always go to Holy Spirit,
always go to him.
Don't go to the dream dictionaries,
don't even Google stuff because Google can mess you up
when it comes to Christian dream interpretations.
But just realize that he is talking to you
that it's metaphoric and that he will reveal those things.
That's the other part about Daniel 2.22.
He knows what lies in darkness and light dwells with him.
And when you bring light into a situation
where it's dark, it illuminates everything.
So when we have our dreams, when we're asleep,
bring the light of Jesus, the light of Holy Spirit
into that conversation and watch that illuminate
and give you the interpretation.
That's just some of the quick kind of points
that I like to make and teach and stuff.
I love that.
Now, what would you say a lot of people of course
are jumping in the comments here and they're saying,
I either don't remember my dreams or I don't dream.
So what do you wanna say to that?
And I'm one of those people that when I do dream,
it's significant, but I do not remember my dreams very often.
Well, one is you can always go back and ask Holy Spirit,
what was my dream, right?
My encouragement to you is if you wake up
and you know you have one of those really long dreams
but you only remember a segment of it,
write that segment down, record that segment, okay?
Because there's something that's in there
that there's a reason why you remember that
and not the rest of the dream
because I have been there before.
I have a prolific dream.
I know it's crazy, it's intense,
but I only remember like one scene
or I can only write down one scene.
It's because that piece of information
is the most pertinent to me at that point in my life.
So if you don't dream, ask Holy Spirit.
He is a good father, right?
Jesus said, if you ask for bread,
he's not gonna give you a stone.
And the same thing goes with dreams.
If you want to dream, ask him,
Holy Spirit, would you speak to me tonight in my dreams?
And I wanna encourage you guys to do that tonight
as you fall off to sleep.
Ask him, say, Lord, I wanna hear from you in my sleep.
Will you give me a dream?
And then the next thing is when you wake up in the morning
after you have dreamt, write it down.
Whether it's a two sentence, three sentence kind of dream
or whether it's a whole paragraph
or a whole page, write it down.
That's some of the big things.
I mean, like it took me,
when I dreamt when I was younger,
I didn't have a grid for it.
So I didn't really dream a whole lot
throughout my teenage years
and a couple of dreams here in my early twenties,
but still I didn't have a grid for it
until I was in my mid thirties.
And so once I had that grid for it,
I knew then that I needed to record them.
And so for you guys, you girls that are wanting to dream
and step into this, no matter where you're at,
in your walk with the Lord, he wants to talk to you.
And so invite him into the conversation and just say,
hey, what do you want to say to me?
Because he's a good father.
I promise you the messages that he gives you are good.
They are about redemption and restoration.
They're about your identity and how he sees you
and how heaven sees you.
They're about the things that he has placed in you
in your heart.
Like even with that one we shared earlier with Vicki
about that call of evangelism,
that evangelistic heart and stuff.
That's what's laced into our dreams.
So record those things.
Ask the Lord for the dreams
and then be a good steward of them and then press in.
And you can ask Holy Spirit for that interpretation
or you can jump into my Facebook group, Dreams222.
Maybe send it to Jackie, check with Jackie first,
for interpretation.
Absolutely.
And so, okay, so I love all that.
That's all awesome, awesome advice, awesome teaching.
I want to talk about what happens when our dreams are,
I know they're metaphors,
but sometimes they're literal, right?
Sometimes they're a warning.
Sometimes God's trying to tell us about something
like for instance, in my life, I had a dream once.
I was just starting to talk to this guy at work
and I had this dream.
And in this dream, I was walking up to this bonfire
where there were a lot of people around this bonfire,
but all of their backs were towards,
all of their backs were to me
because I was walking up from behind.
And the one person that I was walking up behind,
they were doing some very satanic ritual kind of stuff
around this fire.
And I was.
not living for the Lord. I didn't know God the way that I know him now. And as I walked up to
the back of this person, they turned around and it was this guy that, um, that I was starting to
talk to at my job. And, um, and I continue to talk to him after I had that dream. I continue
to talk to him and guess what? A lot of really terrible things happened. A lot of really terrible,
you know, looking back now, knowing what I know now, a lot of, you know, things that, um, you
can only describe as a lot of spiritual warfare and demonic, you know, things trying to get me off
the trajectory that God was trying to put me on to bring me closer to him. And so, um, so yeah,
so what do we, you know, when we have a dream that, you know, um, is not metaphoric, that is
more literal. I know that one person threw up in the comments that she has a lot of literal dreams
where what happens her in her dream comes to pass in real life. Let's kind of talk about those
dreams a little bit. Yeah. I, you know, still journal them down so that you have record of them.
And then you can go back to it. Um, many times the literal dreams we have, or, you know, um,
those caution dreams, I like to call them, uh, or warning dreams to where something, especially if
it's about someone else, like what Jackie's dream was, it's, you know, it was pretty cut and dry
that the guy that she's wanting to talk to is not a guy that he's, um, he's, he's tampering into
the things that he shouldn't tamper in, uh, to, you know, spiritually lead her even further
astray at that point in her life, away from the call of God that was on her life. And so
journal those things down, pay attention to them. Uh, if you're an intercessor, like you,
you really just like your, your heart pulls when somebody is going through something and you're
really praying hard, you're, you're going to have a tendency to have more literal dreams. Um, these
dreams could be strategies of heaven to, to pray for these people. Like you may actually see a
scenario of where, um, you could be praying for a political candidates and see some things that are
going on behind the scenes that the Lord wants you to press into to pray against those things
that are behind the scenes. Um, so that's one way to look at those, those literal dreams. Um,
you know, those are few and far between in my opinion, and at least in my experience. Um,
but when you have those dreams, like the first thing you could always do is, all right, Lord,
is this literal? Cause I know this person, this person, it felt literal. Um, there's usually,
there's when it's a literal dream is something more relevant to today or, you know, in the near
future versus like a destiny dream where a destiny dream can play out over years. These literal
dreams usually are going to play out fairly quickly, if that makes sense. Um, and so he's
really trying to grab your attention about something that's going on, whether it be at work
or relationships or something of that nature. Um, and so just, you know, paying attention to those
is a big piece there. I would take it to somebody who has wisdom, you know, who carries wisdom and
understands, um, you know, the heart of father for us in our dreams, because even like with a
dream, like what Jackie described, there are some people that will tell her that the devil's out to
get her that, um, she's dabbling in witchcraft and doing all, and she needs to repent, turn or burn
that kind of stuff. That's not my style. That is not my style. I do the, I look at things from the
redemptive view of the lens of father. Like he is a redemptive God. And even when we have those
types of dreams, there is redemption that he is trying to pull you into. Um, and like that for
Jackie, it was probably like, Hey, I want to have relationship with you so that you don't, so that
you're protected from anything that could happen to you. I want to be that firewall of protection
around you. So press into me and not the desire of your flesh. Um, and so that's, that's a redemptive
way to look at things. So even in these, those warning dreams, there is a redemption that he is
really trying to, um, to lay out before you, um, and even give you strategies on how to, how to
fight the enemy in certain situations. Yes. Amen. For sure. God is always laying out strategy.
Um, some of the coolest dreams that I have, uh, helped interpret and that have come to me
have been from students that did not know the Lord. They came into my early workshops. You know,
when I first started teaching online four years ago, and they were people that were seekers,
but they were not necessarily Jesus believers. And every single one of them had Jesus come to
them in their dreams. And so it was really exciting to, you know, to see that happen.
And so what are some really cool dreams that have been brought to you? Like,
just tell us about some of the cooler dreams that you have been part of interpreting.
My favorite, or one of my favorites, um, happened last year. We had a, uh, small group here at our
house. We were talking about Holy spirit and just how he moves and talks, uh, to us still today.
It interpreted, I'd interpreted several dreams of, uh, some people that were
there and there was this young girl, um, who was 18 years old visiting her dad
and step-mom for, uh, spring break.
And the entire time she looked like she enjoyed being there, but felt out of
place, didn't really say a whole lot.
And I just felt the Lord tug on me to press in, to talk to her
and ask her if she had a dream.
And so I did ask her if she had a dream.
She says, no, I really don't like to dream anymore.
I said, well, why is that?
And she said, well, the last dream I had was a nightmare.
And it scared me really bad.
And I asked her to share the dream.
And, and this was the dream.
She said that she was in the basement of a two bedroom house.
It was pitch black.
She was in one room and her grandfather was in another room.
And she was in this one room where demons and zombies were chasing her
and trying to eat her and kill her.
But because she had on night vision goggles, she was able to see them and
get away from them right before they caught her or, you know,
tried to kill her or eat her.
And so she was able to avoid it the entire time.
And so, and then the dream woke up and I could imagine how, you know,
that's, that would be pretty, that would get your adrenaline pumping.
I don't care who you are.
Um, and so I looked at her and said, that's a really cool dream.
And she looked at me like really confused.
Like, how is that a cool dream?
You should have had it and, you know, wet yourself kind of a thing.
Cause it was, it was really scary.
Right.
And I said, well, here's the thing.
The Lord has given you the ability to see in the dark.
You can see what others can't see.
You can actually see into the spiritual realm.
You can see the plans and the attacks of the enemy.
And because of your ability to see, you're able to avoid these, these plans,
these attacks as he comes at you, but you're also able to help other people
escape, you know, the, the grasp of his, of his plan to defeat you.
And I asked her, the Lord told me, he said, ask her how long she's been seeing
spirits.
And so I asked her, I said, how long have you been seeing spirits?
And she says, for a long time.
I said, there's proof that what I'm telling you is right.
And so we kept having conversation, had several words of knowledge, uh, just
about some, some things that happened to her in her past and stuff.
And we just really ministered to her.
Uh, we get towards the end.
She's crying cause she's having a total God encounter through a nightmare, a
total God encounter through a nightmare.
And then Holy spirit says, ask her if she's ever asked Jesus into her heart.
And so I said, Trinity, have you ever asked Jesus into your heart?
She says, no, not really.
I said, well, would you like to do that tonight so that you can live out this
plan and defeat the enemy and utilize this gift for the Lord?
And she says, yes.
Crying through a nightmare.
It still gives me goosebumps today through a nightmare.
We reached into hell, pulled one out and filled heaven.
Um, and so that's probably going to be my favorite for a very long time.
That one's so good.
I love that.
I love it.
Um, do you, um, so people are asking the difference between dreams and visions.
And also I think it's important for people to know that we all
obviously have the capacity to dream.
God talks to people through dreams.
Um, I don't want people to feel less than if they're not necessarily dreamers,
because there's an actual gift to dream too, as well, there are people that
they're just dreamers, they're seers.
So, you know, um, so kind of talk about dreams versus visions and then, you
know, dreamers versus, you know, the gift of being a dreamer.
And then also, cause I know people that they dream like 15 times a night,
they got dream journals that are fat and, and, and not that we can't all ask
for that gift, but, you know, um, just kind of talk about that a little bit.
Yeah.
Dreams and visions.
I mean, um, the way I view them is dreams and visions are very, very similar.
Um, visions, I tend to see more literal than dreams.
Doesn't mean they're always going to be literal, but they, they have a tendency
at least to be more literal than dreams, but you can still look at them metaphorically.
And so it could be, you know, when I pray for people, like when I'm ministering
to people, you know, I may get pictures.
I may actually see visions running across my mind.
It's kind of like having your imagination, like you daydream off, right?
The Lord will actually use that to speak to you about your life or
someone you're praying about.
Or, uh, he may bring somebody up in a vision that you haven't talked to in
years, because he's wanting you to pray for them or to maybe reach out to
them or something of that nature.
And so with visions, um, With, I really kind of press into those a little more
literally like, all right, what do I need to do now versus do I need to process this
out?
And so for me, dreams, I process more, um, visions.
It's more of a, of an action step, more of a quicker action step.
Um, and so, you know, some people get into the difference, like in our dream
life of a dream and a vision, I don't do that.
Um, I think we can overcomplicate things and, you know, get so deep into the
forest, we can't see the trees kind of a thing.
And whether you're having dreams or whether you're having visions, um, just.
know that the Lord is talking to you.
And if you don't dream,
like I don't dream every single night
or at least that I can remember.
And I'm honestly,
I'm glad I don't dream 10 and 15 times a night.
That would mess me up, you know?
But so don't feel like if you don't,
if you're dreaming like once a month, embrace that.
That is so stinking cool.
And even if it's like a two sentence kind of dream,
it's amazing because what God can say in two sentences
can change your life and change your destiny.
Look at the first sentence he ever spoke, right?
Light be and light was, right?
And that has echoed through eternity since he spoke that.
So one sentence he created everything with.
So what can he say to you in a short dream
or a short vision in that?
So embrace those dreams, embrace those visions
and just step into them.
And the other thing I would encourage you with
is when you have these dreams and you have these visions,
don't just chalk it up to like bad gas station sushi
or bad pizza or, oh, it's just my imagination
because it may be your imagination.
But let me propose something to you guys here real quick.
Paul said that we have the mind of Christ, right?
Once you become a believer, you have the mind of Christ
and our imagination in the natural, where does it rest?
It rests in our mind, right?
It's in our brain, it's where our mind is.
So if we actually have the mind of Christ
and our imagination is in our mind,
I would propose the question of whose imagination is it?
Is it yours or is it Jesus's?
Right.
Right?
Yeah, that's good.
And I really wanna point out that people that,
people that are feelers, people that are empaths,
people that are dreamers and have visions
and they just, this is their natural bent.
And I think that women, a lot of times,
not to leave you guys out,
but women a lot of times are much more open
to the spirit realm in a lot of ways
and a lot of areas than men,
or at least it's easier for us to connect to that,
connect to the feeling realm.
But I really wanna encourage all of you
that are listening right now
that you wanna purify that imagination.
A lot of times, when we were kids,
we used to sing a little song,
be careful little eyes what you see,
be careful little ears what you hear.
And it's so important, I think it's imperative,
especially where we are right now as a culture
that we're really careful about that
because those ideas, those media messages,
those movies, that stuff that you're putting,
you're depositing that, okay?
Remember your spirit, you're depositing that.
And so that's gonna infiltrate
your empathic, intuitive spirit life.
And so for those of you that have that really easy transition
into seeing visions and dreaming dreams
and your feelers and feeling the spirit,
you're gonna wanna be even more in the word
than anybody else.
You're gonna wanna get in the word.
You're gonna wanna make sure
that what you're putting inside of yourself
is purifying that carnal, soulish nature
because you already know that it's very easy for you
to have output in this feeling realm.
And so we wanna make sure that we're purifying.
Does that make sense to everyone?
We're not just watching whatever we want,
listening to whatever we want
and allowing all of these ideas and themes
to get inside of our spirit
that we already know is very empathic.
So I just think that that's really big
because Jake, I know that you've experienced this.
I've experienced this where God is speaking to me,
but it's polluted with a lot of soulish things as well.
Yeah, absolutely.
Whether that stuff that you've intentionally put in,
like what Jackie's talking about by watching movies
or even maybe staying on Facebook too long
and seeing some of the crazy stories and stuff,
whatever it may be, it could be,
each of us are different.
We all process those things different,
but God's still, like we can have those soulish dreams
where there could be about an old soul tie.
It could be just your brain trying to filter out
some anxiety that you may be having.
Maybe you've crammed for your midterm or college finals
or you've got a big project at work due
and you're stressing yourself out
and you get done with those things
and you have those off the wall, crazy, chaotic dreams.
God still even speaks through those.
So he, because listen,
the earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof.
And that means our dream life too, right?
The earth is the Lord's and everything in it,
which includes our dream life.
But to Jackie's point,
you wanna try to keep your eyes as pure as possible,
your ears as pure as possible,
your mouth as pure as possible.
For me, it's worship.
That's really where I did.
Worship and praying is really where.
I keep myself in check.
I don't know if that makes sense or not.
So, you know, you may be a reader,
love digging into the word.
That's awesome.
I love digging in the word too,
but my go-to is praying and my go-to is worship.
I constantly have worship music going,
you know, my Bethel channel or Jen Johnson
or Stephanie Gertzinger, or, you know, some, you know,
just to name a few, because that keeps me
in that mental state of knowing his goodness,
even as it's going into my subconscious,
that redemption, all of those things.
It keeps me concentrating on the goodness of Jesus
and in communion with him,
in that intimacy with him at all times.
And so however you do that,
I would encourage you to continue to do that
and to press in even more into that.
And you will see your dream life.
This is my belief.
You'll see your dream life open up.
You'll see those visions open up.
You'll hear his voice clearer, right?
It's just, you know, I just,
I echo what you're saying, Jackie,
because it's so important to press in that way.
It is.
And so if you guys,
if you feel like you're spiritually constipated,
then it's because you're not getting enough fiber, okay?
And so what you want to do is
you want to press into the spirit.
If you want spiritual dreams,
if you want spiritual visions,
then you have to press into spiritual things, into worship.
And, you know, you are a spirit
communing with a creator, with a spirit.
And so, you know,
the way that you're going to press into that
or grow in that or mature in that is by feeding that.
Like I've always really loved this analogy
that whatever you feed gets stronger
and whatever you starve gets weaker, right?
And so if you want your spirit life to come alive
and to be vibrant,
you want to hear from the Lord
and you want him to communicate with you,
then you sow to that or you feed that.
How do you feed that?
By watching things that feed that,
by listening to things that feed that,
by reading things that feed that.
And before you know it,
you're going to be spiritually buff, okay?
And you're going to be having visions and dreams
and all different types of communications from heaven
all the time and it's going to be amazing.
Absolutely, absolutely.
It's so important.
Like, you know, I don't know, like, you know,
First Corinthians talks about speaking in tongues.
Paul talks about praying in a heavenly prayer language.
That's something for me.
That may not be your cup of tea
and that's totally cool, by the way,
but for me, that is my spirit that God has put into me,
communing and talking to Holy Spirit.
And when my prayer language,
when I'm using it at a higher, like, rate,
man, my ears are like, they're like a radio antenna.
It's like picking up on all sorts of stuff.
But that's just like staying in tune with that
and feeding your spirit with good, healthy,
spiritual nutrition of the word, of prayer, of worship.
You can't go wrong there.
And you do, you do, and you will see growth
in how you hear God.
Absolutely.
So tell us how to navigate if we have a dream
that's not for us, but it's for someone else.
Yeah.
Well, one, the one way that you can recognize that
is are you a participant in the dream?
Meaning like you're actively engaged in the dream.
So you're, you know, you're driving or you're walking
or, you know, you're talking to somebody in the dream, okay?
So, or are you like a fly on the wall, right?
Are you just clearly an observer?
Like you're watching everything play out.
When you're watching everything play out,
typically those dreams are gonna have at least information
about the main character in that dream.
I have a friend of mine, he's out in California,
I'm in Georgia.
I had a dream similar to this,
to where I was actually observing him in the dream,
had no interaction in the dream with him.
And he was at a, one of those standing desks,
almost like an engineer's desk,
if you know what I'm talking about,
where they put plans out and stuff.
And he was there writing his book.
And that's all the dream was.
It was literally maybe 20 seconds,
but I was observing the dream.
And so I had, so the Lord was actually giving me
a word of knowledge that he is supposed to be working on,
excuse me, in writing his book.
So I ended up reaching out to him a couple of days later
and just said, hey man, I had a dream about you.
I really feel this is for you.
How are you doing?
And I just proposed it as a question.
How are you doing on your book?
Now I have deep relationship with him,
so I can be kind of bold that way with him.
And he just chuckles and it was like, I'm working on it.
The Lord's been talking to me about it.
And so first thing is recognizing
what your role is in the dream.
So if you are in the dream and you're active in the dream,
the dream's probably about you.
If you're observing the dream,
so you're like watching it like a movie
or like a fly on the wall,
probably something has to do with that main character.
And then you just kind of, you need to discern
and ask Holy Spirit what he's showing you there
so that you can.
You can, you know, go to that person and say,
hey, I had a dream that you're supposed to write a book.
How are you doing on that?
Do you need some help?
You know, that kind of thing.
Maybe it's, they need some prayer.
Maybe it's something that's super deep in their heart
that they haven't revealed to a whole lot of people.
And you see that.
And then you ask the Lord, he may just say,
hey, I want you just to pray.
Like don't engage them about this,
but just pray with them or pray for them about this.
You know?
And ladies always understand that just because a dream
seems face value to you,
does not necessarily mean that it is
or that it's going to mean that to someone else.
I've had this often happen to me,
not just in dreams that I have for other people
or words of knowledge or wisdom.
It means something to me, but when I say it to them,
it means something completely different to them.
And you can't be disappointed by that.
I think a lot of times we're like, oh, this is great.
This is really encouraging.
This is positive.
And then we say it to them and it means something different.
Like for instance, one of my close friends had a dream
while my mom was, you know, really, really sick last year.
She had a dream that my mom was totally healed.
In this dream, my mom was, you know,
she knows my mom, obviously, she's one of my best friends.
And my mom was spinning around
in this beautiful blue and white dress.
And she was telling my friend, hey, look, I'm healed.
Can you believe this?
You know, and all of this was happening in the dream.
And when she came to me and told me,
hey, I had this dream about your mom, she was healed.
And she told me as soon as it left her mouth
and it entered my ears,
I knew that my mom was going to pass away.
So as soon as I heard the dream,
it didn't mean to me that she was going to be healed.
It meant to me that she was going to go to heaven.
And so it actually wasn't a very happy moment for me,
but it was also the Lord preparing my heart
for what was to come.
And of course, just a couple of months later,
my mom did pass away and go to heaven.
So she was ultimately healed, the ultimate healing,
but it just wasn't what we were contending for on earth.
And so a lot of times what God is speaking to you,
what it means to you,
it won't necessarily mean that to someone else.
Yeah, absolutely.
And, you know, white things with discernment
and relationship, you know,
you know, I'm a big believer in having relational equity,
meaning like I've got relationship with people.
At least when I go into deep things,
I actually have a friend of mine,
her husband passed away a little over a year ago
and about, it was a couple of weeks before he passed away,
my friend actually had a dream
of Jesus fitting him for a tux.
And she woke up and knew what it meant.
Jesus was fitting her husband for a tux
and she saw him dressed up in that tux,
you know, tailor fit, you know,
just dressed to the nines, you know,
but when she woke up, she knew what it meant
because he was battling,
I think it was like a brain tumor or brain cancer
or something like that.
And so very shortly thereafter, he passed away too.
And so the Lord was just saying, hey, I'm preparing him.
And it gave her peace to actually let him go,
not to make it easier or anything,
please don't misunderstand me,
but it gave her a peace that defies all understanding,
which I'm assuming would probably be the same thing
with Jackie, as much as it grieved her,
it gave her a peace to let go
because she knew it was coming sooner rather than later
in the fight, you know, so.
Absolutely, absolutely.
And also what it did for me, Jake,
and I think that this probably is something
that happens to you as well,
is that when you guys, when we deal with,
we deal in all this supernatural commodity,
because that's what we're talking about right now,
dreams and visions and words and revelations,
it's supernatural,
it's part of the supernatural economy of heaven, right?
So these are commodities that are being, you know,
traded back and forth that are not earthly.
And so what it does is it gives you a revelation
that we are not earthly, okay?
We are supernatural.
I think that we forget that a lot, why?
Because we're being dumbed down
by all of these other messages that are very carnal messages
and they try to ground us in our carnality
when God's trying to pull us up into our spirituality
and into that identity.
And one of the things that I learned
through my mom's passing and through all of the messages
that God gave me during that season
was that she's not dead, I am.
I'm the one that's dead.
She's fully alive.
I'm the one that still has this,
wearing this shroud of death.
I'm the one that's still wearing this decomposing body.
You know, I'm the one that has the lesser revelation.
And so I just want you guys to look at it this way,
that when we get these little tastes of heaven, okay?
These little tastes of Holy Spirit,
because that's the dreams,
that's the dream realm is coming from the supernatural.
Holy Spirit is a supernatural agent of God in the earth.
So when we get a taste of all of those things,
we're getting a taste.
of not just our real identities, but of our future
and our eternity, because it's all like this.
It's all what you're experiencing
in those little bite-sized morsels
that we're getting on earth.
And I think it's really important to understand that.
Absolutely.
You hit on a couple of really good things
that I enjoy teaching on too,
is that most people think they're fleshly beings
having a spiritual encounter, but you're not.
You're actually a spiritual being
having a fleshly encounter.
If he knew you before he formed you in your mother's womb,
when did he know you?
He knew you on the other side of eternity.
He knew you when he created your spirit
before he put your spirit into your physical body.
And so because of that, we are living
in a supernatural world that our dreams,
I really feel like what Jackie said,
he is trying to open us up
to how we're actually supposed to operate,
which is in the supernatural.
You guys realize that the supernatural is only super to us.
It's natural to God.
Laying our hands, healing the sick,
that's supernatural to us,
but man, that's just God's breath.
That's his heartbeat.
And he's inviting us in for those things.
And dreams are really a gateway
to really just bust the door wide open
to be able to go after those supernatural things.
So just really grab onto that,
that you are a spiritual being
having a fleshly encounter.
So like some of you ladies
that have these off the wall images,
or you see things, right?
You're not crazy.
You're not bipolar, okay?
You're having a spiritual encounter
with the heavenlies.
Many times it could be with angels.
So don't discount those experiences either, okay?
Oh, and you know, that reminds me of,
like I said, I don't dream very often myself.
I interpret a lot of other people's dreams
and I've had a few significant dreams in my whole life.
But one of them was so exciting
because in this dream,
you know how people will always talk
about how they see angels.
Well, I've always wanted to see angels.
I've always wanted to see into the supernatural
and be a seer.
I'm very much a hearer in a lot of ways.
And I see sometimes,
but I actually had a vision of angels in my dream.
It was like, I was absolutely there.
We were driving in a car, my husband and I,
and I saw something in the sky
and I asked him to pull over
and we got out of the car and I looked up
and there were the most amazing angels in the sky.
And God gave me a revelation in that dream
of what I needed to do when I woke up.
So I woke up and the Lord showed me where the favor
and where the angelic undergirding was
because we had just moved to Texas.
And I moved on that and amazing things
and doors started opening.
But those angels,
even though I only saw them in my dream sequence
and in my dream life,
I was actually seeing what was really there.
And so a lot of times we'll see in dreams
what actually is really there.
We just can't see it with our natural eye.
We're seeing it in our dream eye.
Maybe talk about that a little bit.
Yeah, it's because we don't have that filter
of our consciousness.
You know, when he doesn't have to go through the,
you know, your filter of life,
he can say so much to you and open your mind,
open your spiritual eyes up
to the spirit realm that's going on.
You think back to the story of Elijah
and I can't pronounce his assistant's name.
I always mess that up,
but they were surrounded by a bunch of,
I believe it was Philistines.
And his assistant, his little helper was freaking out.
It was like, oh my God, we're gonna die.
And Elisha is sitting there like,
he's like, man, we're about to kick butt.
And this is Jake's paraphrase,
but he says, Lord, would you open up his eyes
so he can see what I see?
And he opened up his eyes and he sees an army of angels
and chariots flaming.
There was 10,000 of them.
And they were there to fight the battle.
And that's the actual reality of what's going on
still today that, you know, because we're spiritual beings,
we need to really tap into that supernatural experience
to have, to really, in many ways, partner with our angels.
That's a whole nother topic,
but, you know, that's what they're there for.
You know, Paul said, our battle's not against flesh
and blood, but against powers and principalities not seen.
So let's go after it with the weapons of our warfare,
which are mighty in God,
which part of that is our prayers, our dreams,
and then our angelic activities and stuff.
Absolutely, absolutely.
Does anyone have any questions for Jake?
Put those in the comments.
Jake does have a free Facebook group.
He does have some paid offerings as well,
learning how to interpret your dreams,
getting your dreams interpreted.
For those of you that have longstanding dreams that,
you know, you really want some more depth to,
you want some more insight in,
there's a lot of different things that he offers.
And I'm going to give you guys links
in our Facebook groups to those offerings.
But Jake, if you would just put up, you know,
maybe the link to that free Facebook group
that kind of leads to some of that stuff as well,
that would be awesome.
If anyone has any questions, anything
that you want to ask right now, go ahead and ask.
And I'm going to go ahead and read another dream to Jake
from one of our students that I thought
was really pretty powerful.
And because I know the student and she's in the class,
it means one thing to me.
But coming from a total stranger,
I just wanted to put this up and allow you to,
it's very little, and allow you to speak some wisdom
and insight into it as well.
OK, so let me find it.
I had it up, but then it went away.
All right, great, right.
Let me take off my glasses so I can see up close.
All right, it is, I had a dream last night
that a huge hand was stripping layers of skin off of my body.
It looked like a chisel.
But as the skin was coming off, the skin was coming off,
it came in each layer.
And with each layer that the skin came off,
it was a book with many pages.
Yeah, you have a tremendous, what's her name, by the way?
The person's name is Raven.
Raven, oh, I love that name.
Raven, you have a, the Lord has ingrained in your spirit
literal books that he is wanting you to write.
There's things that he's put inside of you
that he's not put in anybody else
because you have the voice that he wants
to express these things with.
And the deeper you go in him, the more of the layers
of his goodness he's going to peel back
so that you're easily able to write
the stories and the novels.
I really feel like a lot of it is novels with you
that he's wanting to pin to get out there.
So I would just encourage you, continue to go deeper in Jesus
and allow him to peel back those layers of his goodness
and how you actually align with him
is so much deeper and stronger
than what you actually think.
What the things that you're hearing and seeing
are the messages that he is wanting you to pin
and to share with other people throughout the world.
So I just want to encourage you
to step into that even more so.
So I don't know if that makes sense or if it lands or not,
but that's what I saw.
No, and that's what I saw as well.
So that's definitely a confirmation.
I just want to build on that.
I hear just a word of knowledge about,
Raven, I'm not sure if you know who Shonda Rhimes is,
but she's behind a lot of the most famous series,
television series out there,
and none of them are godly series,
but these stories come from her.
They come from her imagination.
They come from maybe life experiences that she's had.
I don't know, because I don't know her,
but I'm feeling like that's what the Lord is saying
to kind of build on what Jake is saying,
that it's not necessarily books,
like in a library of books, but it's stories.
You have so many stories inside of you
that can be told in all different mediums
that can bring health and hope
and healing to people's lives.
We're not going to clean those stories up.
This is what I'm feeling the Lord is saying.
We're not going to take all of the drama
and all of the plot out of the stories
because there's some things in that story
that are necessary to tell the story,
but the story, every single story is going to be redeeming
and it's going to bring redemption and peace and joy
and love and healing to the people
that either are listening or reading
or watching those stories.
So I believe that you have the ability to tell stories
in a lot of different mediums
because of what's inside of you
and what you've been through.
You know, it was interesting
the way you're saying that
because I actually saw it as a Daniel Steele kind of novel.
My mom used to read those all the time.
I never read them, of course,
but I'm familiar enough to know
that it was that type of a novel
that I was seeing for her to write.
Yes, yes.
So, and so I just want, so we, I don't know,
I think that Raven might be actually watching live
on Facebook right now.
So we just released that over you.
Does anybody have anything else that they want to ask?
So you guys see there, we have www.dreams222.com.
All the links for everything,
including the Facebook group are on the website.
So you guys definitely want to jump in there.
I know you guys, a lot of you have dreams
and you guys, the people that come around Jake
or the people that are in those groups,
they're also people that are learning
how to interpret dreams.
And so I've been in there before.
I'm a member of that group and people, you know,
post streams and other people take a shot at it.
You know, it's like, hey, this is what I'm seeing.
This is what I'm sensing.
So there's a lot of supernatural stretching
and growth going on inside of that group.
And so I highly recommend that.
Yeah.
Let's see.
I saw a good question here from Bridget
about are all dreams meant to be interpreted?
My opinion is yes, but maybe not in the timing
that you want to interpret them.
So in other words, sometimes-
God, I feel like gives you a dream or a piece of a dream to where you don't gain the revelation
until later. And so in other words, you may have a dream this year, you know, and at the end of
October, you may not gain revelation until the beginning of next year, because certain things
have to line up, things have to play out, that sort of a thing. So I believe they are, do we
always gain that interpretation? Not necessarily. This is one, that's one of the reasons too why I
love community in this. It's one of the reasons why I started the Facebook group and why I started
a masterclass is to teach and train and equip, but also to have healthy community. So that way,
when we have those dreams that we don't necessarily gain the interpretation on,
it brings in or it could bring in a view or a lens or what I call a facet of God's goodness
and his message that somebody else brings. And so community pulls that out. And so sometimes,
you know, I don't always get interpretation on every dream I see, right? Because if it was up,
because he wants to speak to you, just like he speaks to me, like he speaks to Jackie, like he
spoke to John Paul Jackson, Doug Addison, and so on and so forth. And if it was all, if we were the
only ones that could interpret the dreams, then we lose enough. We lose a precious facet of how
God is speaking to us through someone else. And so by many times by him not revealing everything to
us, it requires us to pull on someone like Jackie and say, Hey, what are you, I've got some revelation
here, but what do you see? And then it confirms things kind of like that dream we just did with
Raven. You know, hopefully it confirmed a lot of stuff that she was already feeling that the Lord
had been speaking to her. And that's coming from another facet there.
Yeah, that's good. And, you know, and, and going back to how God wants to speak to us individually,
and he uses us in community to help each other grow in gifts, right? He uses us to stretch each
other and to help each other. But we should be maturing into the place where we're hearing God
for ourselves, but also God doesn't want to make community not necessary. So we're all going to
need community. But so that's, that sets up the next question for you, Jake. And that is,
what if someone comes to you like a spiritual leader and they say that God gave them a dream
about who your future spouse is like, they know who it is and they tell you who it is, but you
don't have any, you know, that's not something God has spoken to you. You don't have, it doesn't
even have to be a spiritual leader, anybody coming to you and saying, you know, God told me this
about you and you don't have any confirmation of that in your own heart. And that's not something
that God has spoken to you. It's not that you don't want it to be true. You don't have any
confirmation in yourself that it's true. What do you do with that? I do what's called shelf it,
put that thing on the shelf. So when like in my group, if you were to type a dream out and I've
never met you before, the first couple of things that I say is like, Hey, here's what I have for
you. Here's what I'm hearing the Lord say, please take what fits and shelf what doesn't put it on
the shelf. Okay. One of the things that I am a huge believer in is accountability with my words
and with my interpretations, whether I'm releasing a prophetic word, a word of knowledge, no matter
what it is a dream interpretation, I want accountability. And so if it doesn't make
sense, if it's one of those, okay, I need to shelf this one. Okay. Am I hearing differently?
Right? Like what did I miss something? Maybe it's not, maybe that word is on the shelf because it's
meant for a later date. Kind of like what we just talked about with Bridget. Um, but if something
doesn't resonate with you, um, you know, if Chris Vallotton himself or Sean Bowles comes down and
gives you a word and it's like, that's like, I've not heard the Lord say that to me first,
you know, or at least the context of that first, then put it on the shelf, you know,
weigh it out because just because of, um, you know, a prophet is still a man, still a woman.
And we, you know, we know in part we prophesy in part, you know, so that means that we only get
a part of the view or a part of the message. One of the things that, um, like with me, there's
certain words that I have received that the Lord started speaking into me, um, four years ago that
just a couple of months ago, matter of fact, in September, he had confirmed through another prophet,
but he had started saying it to me in 2016. And it was about an identity and a calling and just an
anointing that was on my, that I felt like he was showing me it was on my life. And then through
this prophet, she, uh, she confirmed it, you know? So, um, but like, if, if, if somebody were to come
up to me and say, man, Jake, I just see a crazy good, um, you know, music anointing on you and
you're going to be the next Brian Johnson. And you're going to be, you know, I'll be like, Hey,
listen, man, I sing in the shower. Um, and when the music's really loud at church.
so that nobody hears me for a reason. Okay. It's a joyful noise. So I would take that word and I
would put it on the shelf. Maybe God does something miraculous with my voice, but I would just put it
on the shelf and not really carry a whole lot of weight. So if, if the Lord hasn't already been
speaking to you, like what's the example of a spouse, you know, or relationship, if he's not
already been wooing you into that, the Lord himself, and then somebody comes and tells you
that, then it's like, hmm, you know, let's put that one on the shelf and not really pay much
attention to it. Keep it there, kind of out of sight, out of mind. But if it comes back,
then you can go back to it. Right. Absolutely. Well, one of those in the mouth of two or three
witnesses, let that word be established. Right. And so, you know, let that ripen, let that mature,
maybe a little bit, let's see where that, you know, where that leads. Because I know a lot of
people, they'll keep that in the back of their mind on the shelf and they'll, then they'll compare
everything that comes their way to that thing, because, you know, it's still there. It's kind
of still in their back of their mind, like, oh, is that true? Is that real? And so they,
they have, now they have their, their feelers out and they're looking for something to confirm
that with. And so we really want to be careful with, with that guys, because if it doesn't
resonate with you, okay, if you're, if you're, if your spirit's not confirming it, if there's not
like a, hmm, then, you know, you want to just go ahead and just release that to the Lord and just
let it go totally. And because if it is God, he's going to bring it back around and he's going to
allow that to be confirmed. So before we get off of here, I want to ask you one more question and
then I want you to pray that the, you know, that the grace to dream would be released. And I see
you smiling. I'm sure you do that a lot. So Bridget asked really good question. Let's see, can you
have two people give very different interpretations on the same dream and then both still be right?
Yes. Yes, you can. It's an interpretation. Yeah. It's an interpretation. So, you know, the way I
see that is the, the, the manifold wisdom of God is his multifaceted nature. You look at the facet
of a jewel. Let's pick a diamond because it, it shines the brightest, you know, the brighter,
the diamond, the more facets it has meaning cuts. So that light can penetrate that cut and then
fragment and then reflect that light throughout that diamond. Okay. If it only had one facet,
it wouldn't reflect very much. Right. But there's dozens and dozens and dozens of, of, of facets on
that diamond so that it reflects and refracts that light, our relationship and our interpretations
of dreams and of visions and just, you know, prophetic words to me are part of that multifaceted
nature of God. Okay. So, you know, I may have one view of a dream and it be right, but be different
than Jackie's view of a dream or interpretation of a dream and her still be right. The, the thing
about it is they should pair together, right? They should, it should still penetrate your heart
in some way, shape, form, or fashion. And it, but it brings in a different light, a different
perspective because not only in interpretations does Holy Spirit use your relationship with him,
you know, he uses the word of God, but he also uses your life experiences for you to view things or
hear things through. There's so many times that, um, that when I'm reading a dream, I'll have a,
the Lord will show me a scripture reference, but he also showed me a practical real life example
that I had gone through. Okay. And because I had that, I bring another view or another facet
into that conversation. So when you have a dream that has multiple interpretations
and they seemingly are different, I would actually encourage you to, to write those
interpretations down and actually kind of process them and to see how different they actually are,
because it could actually be a whole lot more tied together than what appears at least at face value
or when you first hear it. Okay. And so let me, so, so for those who, that's a great explanation,
Jake, and I just want to kind of, you know, hit it home for those of you that are still like,
hmm, you know, I, I still, I need, still need a little bit more clarity. So, um, you know,
I have that. So first of all, interpreting dreams is just an act of the prophetic. It's just like
get words of wisdom, words of knowledge, words of revelation. That's, you know, that all kind
of ties together in a neat little package. And so I, you know, I operate very prolifically in words
of knowledge. Okay. And so, um, so I want to explain what he's saying about it being filtered
through different people. We had a bonus session with Sherry Graff. A lot of you were on there
and I said to Carla, you know, your car got stolen and she was like, oh, and the reason that, but I
want to show you my process behind that, because all you guys saw was me give the word of knowledge.
You didn't hear my.
process. Okay. So this is what it's like when you interpret dreams as well. Okay.
I looked at her, I looked at her name and, and God,
and God spoke to me, you know, your, your Carla stole your grandpa's car. Okay.
When I was a kid,
my next door neighbor's name was Carla and she stole my grandpa's car. Okay.
That doesn't mean anything to any of you.
And God wouldn't be able to get you to that word of knowledge that way,
because that didn't happen to you. Carla didn't steal your grandpa's car. Okay.
But for me, that means something to me. And I was able to,
that's my process. When God interprets through me,
he'll use something that means only something to me,
to get me to where he wants me to go for the knowledge that he wants me to
release. And so hopefully that makes sense to you. So of course,
if two people are interpreting your dream,
they both haven't had the same life experiences.
So the same things are going to mean different things to them.
And so it's going to come out in a different language, but at the end of the day,
the message is going to be the same,
whatever that underlying message is is going to be the same.
And so I think we've covered this, but Jake,
I really think that I just want to really clarify that.
So if we are really purifying and renewing our minds and our hearts,
and we're, you know, leaning in, um, and,
and connecting to God and the supernatural,
then we're uncluttering and un gunking up that
channel of communication so that his communication with us is going to become
more real, more vivid, more prolific.
Do you find that when you're fasting or when you're doing something to kind of
push away the noise, that your dreams become more vivid, that you're,
you're gifting in this area becomes more prolific when you're, you know,
kind of pushing away, uh, the carnal distractions.
Towards the end of the fast. And then after the fast, I do,
usually when I fast, I do, um, just liquids, um,
for three to five days, depending on what the Lord leads me to.
And usually it's that third day and beyond that I start, um, you know,
dreaming a little more intensely. Uh, and then after that as well too,
cause it continues to, to go, but it is about, you know, um,
about feeding our spirit and not our flesh. Um, and so when you feed your spirit,
your spirit talks more. And so, um,
that can come with fasting and praying. It can be, however,
the Lord leads you to fast, um, you know,
through worship and stuff that we discussed earlier, but yeah, it totally,
it clears up the channels. It takes that white noise,
that spiritual white noise and it pulls it down so that I can hear him even
better.
Absolutely. So, um,
we also want you now to release the grace to dream and also to
interpret.
Yeah, absolutely. Father, thank you so much for these amazing brides.
Lord, thank you for, um,
for the grace that you've placed on each one of their lives.
Thank you that they are your daughters, um,
that they are princesses and that they are Queens in the kingdom of God.
And so father, just as a, as you are a good father,
and you desire intense and deep communications with us, Lord,
I just ask you that Holy spirit,
that you would open up the dream life of everyone watching both
live and on the replay that you would open up their spiritual ears,
that you would clear open their,
their cochlea and their inner ears so that they can hear you as you speak their
plans to them throughout the night, Lord,
that they would have vivid dreams and that when they wake,
they will remember what,
what you want them to remember so that they can write them down. And,
and Holy spirit,
I just ask for an impartation over everyone here for a greater degree
of interpreting your tongue,
interpreting your language of dreams at night. Lord,
thank you that you love us so much that you desire to speak to us clearly and
precisely with that direct communication from heaven, Lord.
And just thank you that not only do you want to speak it to us,
but you want us to understand it. So Lord, we just thank you for the dreams.
We thank you for interpretations.
May we all sleep well tonight and dream big with you,
Jesus in Jesus name. Amen.
Amen. Thank you so much. I received that myself. Ladies,
I'll be putting up all the links.
If you didn't catch it here in the chat so that you can get in that Facebook
group, you can get into the other programs, learn how to interpret dreams,
be mentored by Jake Bullard in so many ways. We thank you say hi to Rachel,
give her my love. Appreciate you so much. And you ladies have a wonderful night
and dream big. Bye everybody.
