Tulips and the Holy Spirit

 

Marsha,

 

I dreamed these a few months ago.  What do they mean?

 

F.F.

 

First Dream:
Its night time and I am outside.  There is a black fence around waist high.  A man jumps over it to be with me.  We lay down and look up at the sky.  We have our heads on the curb of the sidewalk and our bodies on the asphalt.  He has one hand under his head and his right arm around me.  I have my head on his chest.  He is wearing a blue sweatshirt and I can’t see his face, but he is brown (dark-skinned).

 

Second Dream:

 

I had tulips in a vase.  I took them out of the water and they began to die.  I put them back in the water and they lived. 

 

 Dear F.F.

Let’s look at the first dream:

Its night time and I am outside.  There is a black fence around waist high.  A man jumps over it to be with me.  We lay down and look up at the sky.  We have our heads on the curb of the sidewalk and our bodies on the asphalt.  He has one hand under his head and his right arm around me.  I have my head on his chest.  He is wearing a blue sweatshirt and I can’t see his face, but he is brown (dark-skinned).

 

Its symbols are great. 

 

Night time –  a time of being unable to “see” (understand things) clearly

 

I am outside – you feel you are “outside” of things

 

Black fence around waist high –  obstacles around you of wasteful issues

 

Man can’t see his face –  Holy Spirit

 

Wearing blue sweatshirt –  covering (shirt) of Holy Spirit’s works (sweat) is revelation (blue)

 

We lay down –  You rest in Him

 

And look at the sky –  Look at things spiritually

 

Head on curb and body on asphalt –  while body is on everyday going forward, your head is on your “side” walk i.e. your spiritual walk or ministry on the side.

 

He had arm around you –  The Holy Spirit has His arm around you.

 

I believe this is saying this is a time of being unable to “see” (understand) clearly and you are feeling you are not on the “inside track” but outside of things.  And there are barriers all around you.  But the Holy Spirit who is covered in revelation is with you and has his arms around you.

 

Now, looking at the second dream:

 

I had tulips in a vase.  I took them out of the water and they began to die.  I put them back in the water and they lived. 

 

Its symbols are also good.  Keep in mind a flower is often people whose lives are fleeting / will pass away (Mt 6:28-30, Jam 1:10)

 

 Tulips – a person who is doing speaking (two lips)

 

Vase – a vessel or vehicle to receive water

 

Water – Word of God (Nehemiah 9:15, Psalms 73:10, Isaiah 55:1, John 4:10-15)

 

Die – spiritual change / spiritual death (Leviticus 22:9, 1Samuel 2:6, Psalms 49:10, 2 Timothy 2:11)

 

I believe this is saying people  (flowers) who are speaking out (tulip – two lips – speaking) that are in a vehicle to receive the water (flow and Word of God) are alive.  When they are out of the Word of God they begin to lose their no spiritual life (die).  If they go back to the Word of God, they are alive in the spirit again.  You (as the dreamer) have a part in bringing people back to the Word of God.

 

 Both of these dreams are wonderful and speak of your relationship with the Holy Spirit and your calling to help others.
