I have just moved into a new place and everytime i move strange things always start to happen or i hear things moving or footsteps above me in the middle of the night.

I had this dream about a week and half after i moved into my new flat. I was sitting on my couch and i had just put my daughter to bed i sat on my sofa and then the bookcases and my computer desk started to move toward me closing in around me as if to block me in. I thought straight away that this was a spiritual attack so i tried to rebuke the spirits in the name of jesus as the furniture closed in around me but it wasn't having any effect and the furniture kept closing in.

I woke up just before they got too close becos it scared me that i could not rebuke them in the name of the lord. This disturbed me and it took me a while to get back to sleep again and i remember that just as i woke up i could here someone moving upstairs. You can usually tell if someone is wandering around as they have a wooden floor so when they move through the room you can here the wood creek taking the weight of the person. I started praying in toungues and rebuking in the name of Jesus and singing and praising God as i know that the devil flees before us when we stand firm in our faith in the power of the Lord's name.

I've initially thought that maybe the bookcases and stuff represent the clutter in my life and therefore represent my cluttered mind and because i'm more worried about day to day life than i should be and not focusing as much on god the power of god is restricted and is not having its desired change it needs for me to grow spiritually. Which is why i couldn't rebuke the spiritual attack against me. This also highlights the fact that I might not have enough faith to believe and trust in the power of the Lord's name.

Other views would be much appreciated on this, Thanks

THe Bible says we are destroyed by lack of knowledge.....not lack of faith (Hosea 6:4, or 4:6??). This has nothing to do with faith. You must understand that the Bible must always be considered as a whole. There are verses that speak of rebuking evil spirits in the name of Jesus, but you can't simply take these verses out and ignore the rest of the Bible. Look at Acts:

Ac 19:13 . Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.Ac 19:15 And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? AV Ac 19:16 And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.

THese exorcist jews simply considered that all they had to do was use the name of Jesus and that's it. But the power and authority we have over darkness and evil spirits is not some automatic, hocus-pocus, magic words that we pronounce and presto-chango! It might work for Harry Potter and other sorcerers but not for us. THis power we are given is by means of convenant. If we learn of God's ways, adhere to ALL His laws and teachings and live a life of holiness and righteouness, then we are surroundded by a hedge of protection and we are given authority over darkness. However, if we ignore God's laws and teachings, be it because of lack of understanding or simply disobedience, then we are not covered by this protection, and the evil spirits hence take advantage.

If evil spirits are in fact stalking you, then it's becuase you lack protection. There are a million possible things that could be causing this lack of protection. It's up to you to read your Bible and find out what's wrong. And keep praying.

Honestly moving is just stressful, and when we are stressed we don't feel too well. One of the hardest lessons I have learned is that just because I feel stressed doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong. It just is. We are human and have feelings. God is always in charge regardless of how we feel. Learning to trust that when we don't "feel" that gains one much and helps those "feelings" not control us so much.

I am very pleased to met you, I am me2lord, you are learned in God' ways as I am also. The spirits know those who are the Lord's and there is nothing we fear of them ever.

I will share what the Lord showed me recently. We are heading into the Last Days here and much wickedness is filling the earth's people. Our Lord took me to meet a person, who knows the words of the bible, speaks them and are deeply embedded into him mind, but not his heart.

The man asked me to pray for him and I went to the Lord and spoke with him about this man. The Lord took me back to the man and made it clear to me that this man had reached his cut off time and had been filled with demons, putting him back into this original condition when he was called to God.

This man has been removed from God's grace. God is examining the heats of his children and looking for a people faithful to him in caring for others. This man knew of the wrong he had done for years to his family and spoke of the wrong he had done to his family, openly to me. His daughter specifically and her husband
and been his focus of rage because they were interracial. The Man was a Sabbath keeper for many many years, faithful in his church, but not faithful in love.

How we treat others is more important than keeping a Sabbath, or a Sunday, or attending any weekly service. It doesn't please the Lord to hurt others and God destroys those who do this.

This time now coming upon the earth, we are going to see many who have God's words in their mouths, but the words of God will not in their hearts.
There many who are falling away, because God is rejecting them and these can no longer have demons cast out of them, for they will remain in this state
until death, then to face the Judge for their evil deeds.

We are entering into times that the world has not known. Hold on to your CROWN that has been laid up for all who LOVE ONE ANOTHER and care for those of their family and and neighbors. Our King comes.

Hey me2Lord..............Your post here reminds me of 2 Timothy 3:5
"Having a form of Godliness, but denying the power thereof; from such turn away.

I must ask you a question, "Are you sure the enemy (satan/evil) was using
the bookcases/computer desk in the dream, or was it a angel in the dream" ?

Do you know the difference between dreams of the enemy and dreams of
angelic intervention ?

Most people who saw angels in the Bible, fell to the ground on their faces.

That is why I asked the question.


(quote) I woke up just before they got too close becos it scared me that i could not rebuke them in the name of the lord.


- - - If they (angels) were from the Lord, you cannot call them out, if it is
of the Lord, you would not be able to rebuke the Lord's angels.

Had you thought of this perspective ?

And the items being closing in around you, surrounding you, encompassing
you, as you have figured out, are the most important message of the dream
message.

So, what do the bookcases and computer desk, have to do with your fear ?

Are you avoiding going back to college, or technical school, requiring studies
and computer home desk time, in between class exercises for grade requirements ?

Bookcases, hold books.

Should you be reading new books, not contained in your bookcases, that would
build confidence in your standing with the Lord ?

Are your books, in the bookcases through with serving their purpose of education,
religion, family, etc ? Some new book material needed, maybe ?

How would your computer desk be a negative in your everyday routine ?

Ok, those are some of my thoughts about the dream.
