Dreams can come at any time and in any form. It’s an activity that involves the mind and happens when we are asleep. They can occur based on the series of thoughts, emotions, and images that happen in a person’s mind throughout the day and before sleep. These thoughts get recorded in the mind and replay when we are asleep. That’s why one can think about someone or about a place during the day, and at night, they start dreaming about that person or the place.
Dreams can also come from God. We saw the case of the biblical Pharaoh of Egypt, who had a dream of an impending famine that was to last for 7 years throughout the world. In his case, he couldn’t interpret the dream, but thankfully, he had Joseph, the dream interpreter, around. Dreams pass a message, especially when they are from God. It could also be a passing thought.
Dreams can happen whenever one sleeps. It’s not only at night. They sometimes come in any form. It can be rational or not, uplifting or disturbing, vivid or vague, perplexing or prophetic. But many have argued, especially psychologists, about attributing spiritual meaning to a figment of your imagination because your dream is not valid.
While many believe that dreams should not be paid attention to, it’s also very important to know that some dreams are very significant and have a powerful message to deliver. Dreams shouldn’t be neglected, especially dreams that have spiritual connotations. One of those dreams is when you dream that your teeth are falling out. Dreams like this aren’t something you just ignore and take for granted, as they have spiritual connotations. Anytime you have this kind of dream, please don’t overlook it. This isn’t to put fear in you but to help you know how to handle such a dream.
By the end of this article, you’ll have a clearer understanding of the spiritual meaning of when you dream that your teeth are falling out.
A quick note on finding dream interpretations
Many have had dreams that later came to pass, while some never came to pass. It’s very important to pay attention to your dreams. Whether it has any meaning or not. You should search your mind to be sure what the dream is all about. Knowledge is very important to interpret dreams. What kind of knowledge exactly are we talking about?
- Compare with the Bible
When you have dreams you believe has spiritual significance, search the bible and compare the dream with the bible. For example, if you see yourself around green leaves and flourishing trees. It might be connected to Psalm 1:1-3, “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.”
- Seek interpretation from God
If you can’t find the interpretation and you still feel the dream may have spiritual significance, pray. Ask God to reveal his mind concerning the dream. In the case of Nebuchadnezzar, Daniel sought the face of God with his friends and God revealed the dream to Daniel with the interpretation. Not every dream can be interpreted at face value. You may need to go deeper at times to get that interpretation that soothes the soul.
- Seek for Counsel
This is where this guide falls in. Another option will be to seek guidance and counsel from experienced people. Seek guidance from your pastor or spiritual leader. You are also welcome to platform like ours where we unravel the truth without looking back.
Understanding your dreams and their interpretation is what gives you the details of what you dreamed of and how to go about it. Many times, you might have had dreams that you forgot upon waking up, like the case of the biblical Nebuchadnezzar, which took divine intervention to recall the dream through Daniel. So, that you forgot a dream doesn’t always mean they are useless.
What to do if the dreams are Negative
Negative dreams come from the negative supernatural. Counter negative dreams with the word of God. Believe in God’s promises and any dream you have that is against what God said concerning you, cancel it with your mouth. Any tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shall condemn. (Isaiah 54:17).
Some negative dreams you dream of death, a coffin, and accidents could actually be a plot from satan against your life. The Bible said in Matthew 11:24, “… he shall have whatsoever he saith.” Psalm 91:10 said, “there shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come near thy dwelling.” Any dream against this promise is not from God. Hence cancel that satanic prophecy with the word. However, mind you, these promises are for those that believe in Jesus and have made him their lord and master.
