We continue with our meditations in The Book of Daniel, as we continue to dig into verse 14 of Chapter 10. It reads,
"Now I have come to make you understand what will happen to your people in the latter days, for the vision refers to many days yet to come.”"
Dreams, just as much as they can be symbolic, and MOST times are, can also be direct messaging from divinity. And we see examples of this in the scriptures. Joseph's three encounters were direct messaging. He did not need a third party's interpretation. [Matthew 1:18-25; Luke 1:26-38; Matthew 2:11-23] Solomon's encounter was not as direct, but he could still decipher the message without the need for a third party. [1 Kings 3:5; 2 Chronicles 1:7]
Solomon's story had always told us as though it was an open vision, but it was not. It was not even a trance. It was a vision of the night, a dream. Just imagined how mature and whole Solomon's subconsciousness needed to be for the Lord to commune with him at such a level. I know it might not mean much to the casual reader, but that is loaded.
Solomon needed to have a congruency between his conscious and subconscious being for God to commune with and vouch for Solomon's response at the subconscious level. And that was further affirmed by Solomon's conscious response to making an extravagant offering. God wants us all to develop our unconsciousness to this level.
This would raise the standard, frequency, and veracity of guidance we receive via dreams and inner impressions, or intuition. Here again, we tune to Hebrews 5:14. It reads, "But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil." "Senses exercised," that is to a place of maturity as exhibited by Solomon.
If you want guidance from the invisible realm the onus is on you to ensure the instrument that is you is tuned accordingly. It comes by exercise in peace, tranquility, and oneness. As Jesus puts it,
"“The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness!" (Matthew 6:22-23)
The Saint.
