An International Fellowship of Spirit-Empowered Believers

hello everyone,i need a little help in form of suggestions. I am a christian, and i attend a fellowship,where i happen to be a worker.i have just few friends in church,and a bit shy wit the opposite sex.some months ago,i had a dream.in the dream,i saw one of the brothers in my church,he was standing in a corrider and a voice very loud and clear was telling me or talking to me, i kept on hearing '' ''YOU AND HIM IN THE NEAREST FUTURE''. i did not even understand the dream,and besides i don't even talk or relate with the guy apart from the usual pleasantries we exchange in the church.so i forgot about the dream.

some months later, after service in church,the guy demanded to see me,and he was talking about having a serious and committed relationship with me that might lead to marriage.i instantly told him ,we can or should remain friends for now,i real don't know what to do,do you think the dream i had is about God talking to me ,even before the guy approached me.please, i really needs answers......

Even though it is possible that this attention might be flattering to you, I feel his behavior is inappropriate and the dream was a warning. The aspect of him standing in a "hallway" announcing this very personal declaration is not appropriate. Wait upon the Lord and your heart......be very cautious here.

Hi Shola :)

In the dream, was it the brother speaking?  It seems to me from the way you have written this that the voice was like a voice over in a movie, or an announcement in a supermarket.   I wonder how you felt in the dream because sometimes the way we feel in the dream is a clue to help discern the meaning.

What is it that made you tell him you could remain friends?   Was it shyness or is that what you want?   if it is what you want, then you know what to do... maintain a friendly distance and don't be alone with him, etc.   The fact that you say you don't know what to do makes me wonder however if the response you gave him was a knee-jerk reaction because you felt surprised and shy.   I would agree with Louise that you should be cautious, because demanding to speak to you and then launching into talking about marriage when you didn't even have a clue he was interested is decidedly odd.  But then, perhaps he is shy and uncertain too.

I pray that you will have discernment on your dream, and that you will have the confidence to know what you want and to stand your ground if a more intimate relationship with this brother is not what you want.

Bless you :o)

i was not present in the dream,it was only the guy that was in the dream...and i heard the voice....but it was not the guy talking..it was more like a quiet scene..i saw him ..and a voice saying ..''you and him in the nearest future.''

well..before coming to meet me..he was always trying to be friendly towards me and nice..but i always put him off.....or shunned him ....i was sexually abused several years ago..so am not so friendly with guys...God is just teaching me how to really forgive and be comfortable around men.  after my ddream.....my sister in another state also called me about a dream she had about me and guy  in the fellowship i attend..she has never seen him and does not even know him...she told me to be more nicer and less aggressive with men...that there's a brother holding back..... so i  took to her advise and became a little patient with men and nicer i think...some months later...he showed up...but thanks alll for your advise....i ll take caution and pray and trust God

Jesus, how hard it would be to begin a relationship "normally" and let go and trust people to get closer when that trust has been broken and abused in the past.   I ask for wisdom for Shola, and for grace and peace - an unusual peace, a peace she has never known to permeate her spirit when she is with safe people.  Please show her when it is safe to trust.

Bless you Shola :o)
