Introduction
Over the past years I have experienced many different types of attacks at night in dreams. I have had recurring dreams of being attacked by snakes, crocodiles, cattle/bulls, cats, bees, dogs, elephants, hyenas, lions, mad men, witch doctors and witches.
In addition to these I have had different kinds of evil spirits manifest in my bedroom to attack me whilst I was awake at night, some I understood to be demons, satanists, fallen angels, mermaids goblins and other spirits I have never figured out what kind they were.
In all these God has given me great victory over the years. Some times I would battle with a certain type of attack for years and then the Lord would come and give me a teaching of what type of attack it was, and how to enter into ultimate victory over it.
The animals
Each type of animal represents a different type of temptation, trial or issue that you are dealing with during the day. But we are often unaware of these things during the day, and the dreams reveal these things to us.
Ultimately I understood that it was all about me and when I addressed these things in the day, I would have complete victory during the night.
It is not within the scope of this Teaching for me to explain about all these animals what they mean and the lessons I leant. However even though, I was walking experiencing victory it still came with battles; some short some long, some unnoticeable. This brings me to my testimony.
The Testimony
In February 2020, the Lord taught me a principle that changed my life forever. It was simple, basic but so powerful, that it changed my spiritual position and gave me a level of victory that was far beyond what I had experienced before.
The Dream
In February 2020, I had a dream. In this dream we were standing with a group of brethren in a forest.A group of fierce lions then began to come attack us. We then ran and hid from the Lions such that they could not catch us.
Then a herd of large fierce elephants saw us and began to come after us. So we began to run, and there was a way of escape just ahead.
But as we were running, The Lord began to talk to me.
He said, “The way you respond to an attack in a dream, is a reflection of the way that you are praying in relation to your issues.
When you dream of yourself running away from an enemy, it’s a reflection of the way that you are praying. “
I then saw a vision of certain Brother that I pray with. The Holy Spirit then said to me, “There is a teaching that I have given him in relation to that”
That brother then responded in the vision and said, “When I see these things, I don’t even fight them, I just fly”
The dream then ended
This was not the first time I had dreamt of lions and elephants. In February 2019, I had two dreams in which I was attacked by a group of elephants and in both dreams I could not fight, defeat or even escape them.
The Next Day
The next day I called that brother and said, come tell me what the Lord has taught you in relation to dealing with evil Spirits and in relation to flying. He came to my house and he shared what the Lord had taught him on the subject.
The lesson
This is what I learnt.
When God created the birds, he said, let the birds fly.
1. However, we have birds that don’t fly even up to today. Ostrich and chicken.
2. Then we have birds that fly, by flapping their wings. They use a lot of energy to flap their wings and end up flying. They fly, but it’s a lot of work.
3. Then you have the eagle that soars. It flies above all the other birds, yet it does not do any work. It just spreads it’s wings and soars without even working.
This is comparable to different Christians.
a) We have Christians that don’t fly. They are living as victims of spiritual attacks even though Jesus has said, I have given you authority over all the powers of the enemy. Yet they live as victims.
These are like the ostrich and chicken.
b) Then you have the Christians who fly. They experience victory over the enemy, but it’s a lot of work. They have to flap their wings and work hard and they experience victory over the enemy.
They have victory over evil Spirit, but it comes with a lot of fasting, prayer casting and declarations.
This is the level that I was operating in.
c) Then we have the third level of Christians that are like eagle. They are so far above, that they don’t even have to flap their wings. They just soar and the air does all the work.
These Christians, move in the highest dimension of authority. They don’t even have to exercise any effort to move in victory over evil spirits.
So my next question was, how do I become an eagle? I have been flapping my wings to fly, how do I soar?
The Revelation
This is the revelation I leant.
In order to become an eagle, you need to realize that when the Bible says, all things are yours it means all things are yours.
1 Corinthians 3:21-23 (WEB)
21 Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours,
22 whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come. All are yours, 23 and you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s.
Romans 8:32 (WEB)
He who didn’t spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how would he not also with him freely give us all things?
The next point was, God owns everything, and uses everything to serve his purpose. That includes Satan and all evil spirits. God is free to use even Satan and evil spirits to serve his purpose. So when scripture says all things are yours, it also includes evil spirits. They are your servants. They are not equal to you. They are servants to you.
And I suddenly realized that this was powerful. You see God gave Adam dominion over all creatures, Dogs, Cows, Lions, cattle, bees, elephants, cats etc.
Adam did not fear dogs or lions because he understood that he was their master. When God is showing these spirits in animal forms in my dreams, it’s to show me that I am their master. That’s what it means to have authority over them, I am a master and they are my servants.
So immediately, I changed accepted this reality and and received it into my spirit. I did this by just going quiet and meditating over the idea that I am a master to evil spirits, they are servants.
I then accept it as a reality to live by.
Many times we receive something into our minds, but not into our spirit , it remains a concept to us but not a reality that we live by.
my fellow brother, Gabriel once said to me. You know that a concept is now in your spirit, when it’s something you can think of and in your dream. When a principle is not yet a reality in your spirit, when you have dreams, it will never occur to you.
The Result
That very night I went to sleep and I had a dream. I saw myself in a field surrounded by hundreds of giant angry elephants.In front of me was an elephant, and I was holding it’s trunk. But I realized that I was now able to rule over and control the elephants. I began to direct the angry elephants to attack one another, and they did. I directed one of the angry elephants to come and attack the one that was standing in front of me. This giant elephant in front of me began to beg me in fear of his other angry elephants that I had directed to attack him”
He said, “Master master please reverse this, please reverse this master. Master please”
The dream ended.
I had never experienced that level of authority in a dream. Where the very creatures that attacked me, were now calling me master, and waiting for me to tell them what to do, and to help them.
The moment, I realised that I was their master, they themselves began to treat and see me as their master.
That was a month ago.
Since then, I have been having dreams of extreme victory and authority. I had never killed a dog in a dream. Two days ago I saw, over fifty dogs coming to attack me. I killed all of them.
Last night I dreamt there was a woman being attacked by a hippo.
I then warned this woman. As I did so… The Hippo looked at me and said, “I am now going to attack you because you stopped me from attacking her”
The Hippo then ran after me. I began to run away, and began to hear all these voices speaking about how dangerous hippos were and how even if you escape from a hippo, it would recognise you for the next four years and will attack you if you return.
As these voices spoke, A voice then spoke from within me and said, “Remember the lesson that you leant. When you run in a dream, it’s a reflection of how you are praying for these issues. Remember, I taught you that you are their master. This hippo is your servant, and is there to do what you order it to do.”
So I immediately stopped running.
I looked back to face the Hippo. Suddenly I became weightless and my body began to rise from the ground into the air. I was filled with so much power that gravity did not exist for me and the Hippo was nowhere to be found.
Just that simple realisation. I am their master – they are my servants. That simple change in perception changed my world.
The spirits treat me according to what I know about myself. This has changed my life. I hope it changes yours too.
Thank you so much for sharing! IT really opened my eyes.
You’re most welcome
May the good Lord bless you
Good morning, thanks for that revaluation but I am not see the evil spirit in view, they appear suddenly attack and disappear.
What is your encouragement to me?
Ask God to open your eyes to spiritual attacks and to deliver you from them, for in The Lord’s Prayer it is written, “lead me not into temptation but deliver me from Evil”,
Thank you so much Brother, i am learning here ….God bless you abundantly
Thank you so much sir, i came across this post as i was searching for illumination regarding my young daughters dream.
Do you have any revelations regarding when fellow men attack in a dream?
