Bowel Movement on the Bed

 

Marsha,
I had the following dream:
I was having a bowel movement in the bedroom on the bed.  I was next to a window.  While this is happening I see out the window three guys coming.  I know they are thieves or bad guys.  I am trying to hurry up and finish the bowel movement.  I then crouch beside the bed so they don’t see me.  They pass by and don’t see me.
What does this mean?

Hi Cheryl,
I wanted to display this dream because it has some interesting symbols in it.  Who is the focus of the dream?  It is You.   This dream is all about what is happening to you and around you.

The Sub-focuses of the dream are two-fold.  The first is the bowel movement!  Fun stuff.  We’ll look at that in a second under the symbol meanings.  The second Sub-focus is the 3 guys.

Okay, so let’s look at these fun symbols.
  • Bowel movement (or this might be called excrement) =
    • old garbage in life that needs to be disposed of (Gen 2:16-17, Mt 15:17);
    •  or this could mean = getting rid of unclean things (Dt 22:12-14m 2Kgs 18:27).
  • Bedroom =
    • a private place (1Sam 19:13, 2Sam 13:10);
    • a place of rest (Gen 39:7-12, 49:4); or
    • in a place of intimacy (Gen 49:33, Exo 8:3, Dt 22:30). 
  • Window =
    • Revelation / seeing beyond (Gen 7:11, 8:2, 2Kgs 7:2, Prov 7:6-23);

    • Allows entry where something can get in or out the wrong way (Gen 8:6, 2Cor 11:33). 

  • 3 guys that are bad =
    • Could be several things but look at it might represent 3 people or issues not of the Lord Heb 13:2).

So let’s put this together:  This dream might be saying you are in a private place of rest getting rid of wasteful things and old garbage in your life.  While you are at this, through a revelation (gift of understanding and seeing from God) you are made aware of 3 issues or people that you know will be bad for you.  You take steps to avoid these issues/people and do it. 

Cheryl, I would say that this dream is about:  “where you are and what you are doing”.  God is showing you that you are in a good place and getting rid of things you need to.  It is also may be saying you “dodged a bullet”…so to speak.  Though some action of your own in “stepping back and away you have avoided some problems.    

 

God is good!

Sparrows in a Building

Welcome to my blogs.


Here is a dream Mike W. gave me.  In order to help you learn a little about how to interpret a dream, I will post a dream regularly, give you a breakdown of possible symbols and their meanings, and give you an interpretation of the dream.  Only the dreamer knows for sure if the interpretation is right on.

Mike’s dream:  Sparrows in a Building


A few other people and I were trying to help sparrows that were in a building get outside.  We were coordinating opening the doors.  There were two sets of doors, inner and outer.  And we were shooing the sparrows along towards freedom.  Some got out.  Some took more effort to get out.  One was weak and needed water and food before flying away.

Hi, Mike, let’s look at the symbols in the dream:

Sparrow = God’s care and provision to those who feel unworthy (Mt 10:29-31)
Door = choices / opportunities (Gen 4:7, Mt 7:13)
2 = discernment (Exo 2:12-14, Mt 18:19)
2 = division (Gen 1:6-8, Mt 6:26)
inner = internal
outer = external
water = Word of God (Neh 9:15, Ps 73:10, Is 55:1, John 4:10-15)
food = teachings, things learned [being ingested] (Neh 9:15, Prov 18:20)

Now, let’s look at the focus:  Who is the dream about?   It looks like this is about You, and others.
What is the sub-focus, what is happening?  The sparrows!  You and others are trying to help the sparrows.

If a sparrow is a person who is in need of God’s care and provision and who feels unworthy (see our symbol) then this dream is saying you and others are helping people who are in need and are “trapped” in life (in the building).  You are helping them find “freedom” especially as it relates to things needing discernment (2) or which cause division (2) and with their choices or opportunities (doors), both inner choices (inner doors) and external choices (outer doors) that they need to deal with.   Some people are receiving your help easily but others take more effort to receive it.  One person in particular is especially weak and needs extra help.

I would say this dream speaks of a ministry or work you are doing to help others!  So why would God give you this dream, Mike?  Why would he tell you something you already know?
Possibly it is to let you know that HE knows what you are doing and what you are up against.  He may also be letting you know that you will have varied responses from those you are helping, (so don’t feel it’s a reflection on you.  He is all about what you are doing!
