Have you ever had a dream about heaven? I had two dreams about heaven that I can remember. My first dream that I had about heaven was that when I was sleep I heard God's voice.His voice was gentle he said my name and said vengeance is mine saith the Lord. Then He said don't you know no weapon formed against you shall prosper. I looked up and I saw so many people in heaven and they dedicated a song to me and they sang me this song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EfFVnP6DO0
In my second dream I was walking alone,there were so many white doors the ceiling was white the floor was white then I went to a door and it said knock but before I knocked I looked down and I saw a gift wraped in white paper with a red bow and it said from God. I looked and smiled,and said for me. I was going to open it and I woke up. I wanted to stay asleep and keep dreaming because I wanted to open it. I wanted to see what was inside of it.

It is just your imagination, anyone can do it if they like to and by your thoughts of things you want to know or things that you're curious of it happens specially in dreams. I bet you are a religious person or active in church.

All that I can say is when I had those dreams they brought me peace. Both times I had those dreams were right before I was going through something and I asked God to give me strength in my prayer. When I woke up I felt peace and joy. I don't call myself a religious person nor do I want to be a religious person. I am a christian who is still growing everyday. I am not perfect and I don't judge people for their beliefs. I do not go to church every Sunday but I try to make it there and I enjoy going not because I have to but I want to attend worship services to hear the Word of God there. I am not really all that active at the church that I attend. I teach a Sunday School class to the little ones once a month and I volunteer to do things sometimes. I really don't know why we have dreams but those dreams really stick out because somehow I feel like it was God speaking to me.
Thanks for your response.

I have never dreamed of heaven before, I'm still not sure if i believe it exists, I would like to think it does, but its hard when life has so many ups and downs and most of your life has been downs.
It's a nice thought,I just don't think I believe.

I hope that one day you will believe,it's really about exercising faith.
Matthew 17:20 says, "I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.
Now that's something else meganree. All you have to have is the faith of a mustard seed that's a very small seed. and you can say to the mountain (which symbolizes a problem and the hard times that we all face in life. You can say to that problem move. I've gone through trials and tribulations in my life and when I pray God takes care of those problems, and problems don't always go away over night but problems just makes us stronger. You will always win with God on your side.God will fight the battles in your life.
Mark 9:23 says everything is possible for him who believes.
Mark 10:27 says that all things are possible for God.
So, how do we obtain Mustard Seed Faith?
God gives us the measure of faith (Romans 12:3).
OK so now we have mustard size seed faith. What do we do with it? How do we use it?
When we are praying for others or ourselves:
1. We need to get our minds off ourselves, off the other person, off the situation and focus completely on God. There have been times in my life that I felt like crying and felt self pity and when I focus completely on God and give it to Him I feel peace even in the storm of life. I can still smile when it appears that walls all around me are tumbling down. We need to see what Jesus has already done for us by His stripes and the cross, and look to the power of the Holy Spirit.
Jesus says trust in Him, He tells us so many times, "I tell you the truth," He watches over His Word to perform it.
2. Focus on building your own faith. The gift God gives you is enough, but you can build upon what you have. It's hard. Sometimes when things don't go right I feel angry but I have to keep the faith.
Romans 10:17 says that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God.
God’s Word is Truth; you build your faith by getting the truth into your heart by reading the word of God,or listening to it,or watching it on tv, or participating in going to a church. God gives everyone a free will. No one is forced to believe it's just a choice. I don't know how I could survive and have strength in the world without God in my life.

I never have dreamt about it before but I think there might be a possibility that it might exists somehow.

I absolutely adore that song. We use to sing it all the time in my old church. It has a very powerful and comforting messege.
I don't ever remember dreaming about heaven, however, I have dreamed about hell, but that is another post.
I heard that in heaven there are going to be colors that we have never seen before. Because my brain is not able to imagine this, I get a headache when I try to form a vision of a new color.
