Hi Danja,
I too have had visions and dreams and have felt very confused about them wondering is this from God, the devil or me. I have asked others their opinions and have got all sorts of answers. All sound logical, reasonable and have scripture to back them up. It makes it all the more confusing. I didn't want the devil to be messing with my mind nor give him any open door into my life and at the same time I didn't want to put God in a box refusing to believe that he is communicating with me.
I think in the end I am learning to commit it to the Lord and somehow he has the ability to let you know what is from him. I don't know how he does it nor can I put it into words it is just something that he privately does within you. So my advice is to ask him and not others, it will just confuse you. You will be torn between people warning it is the devil and others who will encourage you it is from God. Let Him show you.
On GG's thread today Shittim posted a video #165 about someone's dream. Might be worth a watch.
you know, in the end, we have to be able to stand against the devil's wiles and confusion is NEVER from God but the devil is
more than happy to bring us to the place we want nothing to do with anything even if it is from God. I was once there myself
the main problem is that there is a big bunch of hooplah so called teaching out there that magnifies gifts instead of the One who
gives them and this is more than confusing and in some cases is downright demonic
the first mistake is believing if it happens in church it most therefore be from God. people then let down their guard and the invasion begins. error and deception and if anyone does not believe that, check out the cults and the bizarre things taught...like grave soaking
if we follow biblical instructions we will not go down this path and it is imperative that we do so and I cannot emphasize that enough
do NOT seek experiences...you will receive them. DO seek the Lord and He will answer
most people should probably do an inventory on their life and see if they have opened doors that could lead to being bothered in some way that is not of God
remember, the devil is a deceiver and comes as an 'angel of light'
I'm not addressing this to you personally but to anyone who cares to read it
this is not a power struggle because Jesus already won the fight...it is a truth stand...as Jesus did when the devil tempted Him
we stand on the truth of the Word of God. the devil is a liar and will attack anywhere he can against those who have given their lives to Jesus and actually do want to walk with Him
it can be scary at first, but after a while, you realize that Jesus is your Savior against all the deception or any other thing and it becomes easier and the false things will fade away and if they should try again, well, you will know what to do
