Spirits, Souls, and Dreams

This collection of writings is based on the author’s perceptions derived from Spirits, Souls and Dreams; the human experience composed of living between spiritual heaven and hell, an amalgamation of both spiritual and human origin. Life demands integrating subjective spiritual information from divergent sources along with human emotions, thoughts and dreams, and interpreting this information by means of spiritually impaired objective reasoning. Given these inherent convolutions, the author would like to exhort one invariable truth: as a human, it is quite easy to be mistaken. We are fallible in judgment and in our memories. Consequently, it is imperative to employ the utmost judiciousness to interpersonal inferences, assumptions and deductions; and with biblical assurance, accept that our cognitive processes are abjectly compromised. It is absolutely essential to accept others without concession. Acceptance is requisite for forgiveness. Forgiveness is indispensable for true love. God is love. Love is God. Love one another. Spirits The origin of life. The Bible purports that in life, “we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places” Ephesians 6:12. Thusly, our spiritual perceptions are not exclusively from God, but also from The Devil, “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world” 1 John 4:1.Various spiritual topics are broached herein such as: faith, expectation, reassurance, prayer, acceptance, questioning, foretold future, vigilance, awareness, thankfulnesss, guilt, wariness, cautiousness, hope, helplessness, appreciation, obgligation, courage, worship, and spiritual battle. In reality we are guided as well as misguided. We confront demonic principalities, and consequently we all are intimately acquainted with the dark forces of spirit according to the bible, whether we perceive this or do not. Souls One’s intellect, will, and emotions and how one navigates through love, love’s troubles, love lost, desperation, delusion, vulnerability, incomprehension, wonder, mortality, significance of time, misunderstanding, concern for others, disappointment, hope, expectations not met, altered awareness, acceptance of what is, exhortation, encouragement, questioning societal norms, dangers, fear, perseverance, loss of hope, selfishness, deception, thankfulnesss and trust. These are some of the issues encountered in the Soul sphere. The extent to which spiritual forces are expressed in the Soul plane may be characterized by the following. 1 Peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour. Dreams The convergence of spirituality and humanity, good and evil, reality and fantasy, fear and courage, thought and feeling. In dreams the supernatural, imigination, presumed reality, the past, present and future and all of our experiences are assimilated into both real and deceptive perceptions. Daniel 2:19 Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven. Ecclesiastes 5:7 For in the multitude of dreams and many words there are also divers vanities: but fear thou God.
