It is of paramount significance to unveil the divine truth that dreams are an essential tool by which humanity can connect, communicate and hear the voice of God. Throughout the entire Bible, God as always been known to communicate to His people through dreams and visions. Dreams are a very powerful connection with the spirit realm which every believer should be acquainted to. Dreaming is also a mechanism to connect with God and receive messages from him regarding your life or your future. Dreams are an important part of our lives in the sense that real life is lived in dreams and our waking hours are a replay of what one would have seen or experienced in the dream. There is a necessity to be one who dream dreams if you want to reach into the height and greatness of God's plan for your life. And this divine truth is evident in the life of Joseph the dreamer The truth is that dreams are the fertile ground for the Holy Spirit to work and move in our lives. All the great men of God throughout the Bible who have done great things are dreamer of dreams. Dreams are so powerful that they can change your life and your destiny. In fact, if you really allow them to minister to you your whole life and destiny can change. In this publications, Apostle Frequency Revelator unpacks mysteries of dream interpretation and unveils that the more powerful you are in a dream, the more powerful you will be in the physical. That is why if you want to defeat Satan and his demonic cohorts, you must defeat them in the dream life. If you can master the art of how to control or change things in your dream life, then you can change your life in the natural realm. If you want to gauge your spirit level and have a self-introspection about your spiritual life in general, simply look at how your dreams life and you will have all the answers you need. This is because your dream life is a movie or pictorial representation of what you are in the natural realm. Dreams are a channel or pipeline through which spiritual substances are transacted from the spirit realm into visible and tangible manifestation in the physical realm?Dreams are a mechanism by which wealth is transferred or transacted to those God has positioned to receive a landslide of wealth in these end times.The dreamland is a realm of great achievements, a realm that catapults one to dimensions beyond the faculties of human comprehension. Only if you could cultivate and nature your dream life, you will be thrilled at how great doors, breakthroughs and opportunities will stream in your direction, catapulting your spirit to higher realms of the supernatural realm. In this publications, Apostle Frequency Revelator unpacks the reality that dozens of folks are entrapped in a morass of debilitating circumstances of poverty, lack and limitation in progress because they have not learnt the art of how to receive things from the spirit realm through dreams. Owing to lack of revelation, there are dozens of believers who are praying Heaven down and going for elongated periods of fasting to the extent of even begging and cajoling God to answer their prayers concerning their debilitating life circumstances of poverty, debt, sickness and limitation in progress yet God has already answered them in dreams and they did not even know that they already received the answer. This book is an activation tool that will usher you into the realm of operating in prophetic dreams and visions. It will activate you into a place of hearing from God in a clearer way when it comes to dreams and visions. It will catapult you to a prophetic realm, dimension and level where your dreams become solid material that communicates spiritual realities and transforms things in your world.

Do dreams predict the future? Are visions really either hallucinations or delusions? Jews and Christians have had definite and conflicting answers to these questions for centuries that are maintained to this day, but what is the truth according to the Bible and other sources that people trust as a society of believers or thinkers?Even people today claim to have visions and dreams that come from God, but are they right? Although believers accept that divine dreams and visions in the Bible are real, they or the church may not necessarily accept or believe that yours are. Why is that? Psychologists dismiss hearing the voice of God and seeing angels or the deceased as hallucinations, but should they? Should we all take another look at hallucinating as being spiritual or divine occurrences? Ken Powe, researcher and minister, explores these meaningful and contentious issues by looking at Scriptures, cultures and science from different parts of the world in an effort to give meaning to the mysteries of the universal experience of dreaming and having visions. Visions and Dreams: Are They Communication from God or Just Us? is a methodical step in the direction of reconciling divine phenomena with everyday experience. You may just find the truth if you know which direction to look!

In the book presented here, one encounters dreams and visions from the history of Christianity. Faculty members of the Tilburg School of Theology (TST; Tilburg University, The Netherlands) and other (Dutch and Flemish) experts in theology, Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages present a collection of articles examining the phenomenon of dreaming in the Christian realm from the first to the thirteenth century. Their aim is to investigate the dream world of Christians as a source of historical theology and spirituality. They try to show and explain the importance and function of dreams in the context of the texts discussed, meanwhile making these texts accessible and understandable to the people of today. By contextualizing those dreams in their own historical imagery, the authors want to give the reader some insight into the fascinating dream world of the past, which in turn will inspire him or her to consider the dream world of today.

Apocalypticism arose in ancient Judaism in the last centuries BCE and played a crucial role in the rise of Christianity. It is not only of historical interest: there has been a growing awareness, especially since the 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, of the prevalence of apocalyptic beliefs in the contemporary world. To understand these beliefs, it is necessary to appreciate their complex roots in the ancient world, and the multi-faceted character of the phenomenon of apocalypticism. The Oxford Handbook of Apocalyptic Literature is a thematic and phenomenological exploration of apocalypticism in the Judaic and Christian traditions. Most of the volume is devoted to the apocalyptic literature of antiquity. Essays explore the relationship between apocalypticism and prophecy, wisdom and mysticism; the social function of apocalypticism and its role as resistance literature; apocalyptic rhetoric from both historical and postmodern perspectives; and apocalyptic theology, focusing on phenomena of determinism and dualism and exploring apocalyptic theology's role in ancient Judaism, early Christianity, and Gnosticism. The final chapters of the volume are devoted to the appropriation of apocalypticism in the modern world, reviewing the role of apocalypticism in contemporary Judaism and Christianity, and more broadly in popular culture, addressing the increasingly studied relation between apocalypticism and violence, and discussing the relationship between apocalypticism and trauma, which speaks to the underlying causes of the popularity of apocalyptic beliefs. This volume will further the understanding of a vital religious phenomenon too often dismissed as alien and irrational by secular western society.

Throughout history to the present day, religion has ideologically fueled wars, conquests, and persecutions. Christianity and Islam, the world's largest and geopolitically powerful faiths, are often positioned as mortal enemies locked in an apocalyptic clash of civilizations. Rarely are similarities addressed. Dreaming in Christianity and Islam, the first book to explore dreaming in these religions through original essays, fills this void. The editors reach a plateau by focusing on how studying dreams reveals new aspects of social and political reality. International scholars document the impact of dreams on sacred texts, mystical experiences, therapeutic practices, and doctrinal controversies.
