Understanding the Dreams You Dream: Biblical Keys for Hearing God's Voice in the Night [Paperback]

Ira Milligan (Author), Judy Milligan (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: February 1, 1997

God frequently talks through dreams. The Bible reveals that in the past, dreams were the most common way God talked to His people. The people in the Bible communicated with God through prayer, and He answered them in dreams. God does not change, neither has the way He communicates with His children.

Unlike the early Christians, today's believers often treat dreams like junk mail. In doing so, they often throw away the very answers they asked for when they prayed for counsel and guidance.

Understanding the Dreams You Dream is written from a Christian perspective to help Christians understand the symbolic language of dreams. Deliberately written without technical jargon, this book can be easily understand and used by everyone. It is the only complete, one-volume Christian reference book for interpreting dreams on the market today.

5.0 out of 5 stars REVIEW FROM MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW - OUTSTANDING!, September 26, 2003

This review is from: Understanding the Dreams You Dream: Biblical Keys for Hearing God's Voice in the Night (Paperback)

I love this book and keep it on my desk at all times. I am very interested in dreams and feel strongly that the Lord talks to us during the night so this book was a must for me to have.

The author lists countless meanings of symbols and words in his writing, such as seeing an animal in your dream and what that animal stands for. He also gives an explanation of dreams, how to interpret them, what the Bible has to say about dreams and how you can understand yours.

I found this book to be so interesting I could not put it down and now those that know I have the book come to me to ask what something meant in a dream they had.
Humm....perhaps they need to buy their own book, don't you think?
Great read! Informative! Well worth your time.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Only Book on Dreams You Will Ever Need, February 16, 2001

By 

Tim Nance - See all my reviews

This review is from: Understanding the Dreams You Dream: Biblical Keys for Hearing God's Voice in the Night (Paperback)

Using an unashamedly biblical basis for God-sent dreams, Ira Milligan has blessed believers everywhere with his dream interpretation handbook. Few people realize that God often communicates with His children through dreams. It is one of the most common methods for hearing God. Ira's straightforward, non-mystical approach to understanding your "God dreams" is refreshing. First he lays a biblical groundwork for God dreams. Then--in what will be the most dog-eared part of the book--Ira lists a key word section of symbols often found in dreams. He also ties each symbol to Scripture. This book is an excellent tool to help you understand what God is saying to you in your dreams. Thanks Ira, and "Sweet Dreams."

This review is from: Understanding the Dreams You Dream: Biblical Keys for Hearing God's Voice in the Night (Paperback)

This book is very helpful to any dreamer who need to continually know what God is allowing them to see. I have lots of dreams and many times I do not know the whole meaning of my dream. This book gives me guidence to what God is speaking through my dreams. After I have search the book for the symbols I seen in my dreams, I pray for a complete understanding of what to do concerning the dreams, and I always trust God's leading and the confirmations He sends concerning the dreams. This book is a very helpful guideline into symbols and meanings that God shows in dreams. This book is a must for those who know they are truly God's dreamers.
