TROUBLING DREAMS
Daniel 2:1-3
"Now in the second year of Nebuchadnezzar's reign, Nebuchadnezzar had dreams; and his spirit was so troubled that his sleep left him. Then the king gave the command to call the magicians, the astrologers, the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans to tell the king his dreams .... And the king said to them, 'I have had a dream, and my spirit is anxious to know [understand] the dream.' "
This is not a Martin Luther King speech, "I have a dream." Nor were King Nebuchadnezzar's dreams caused by drinking too much coffee. They were God-sent, and they caused him to be troubled and anxious in his spirit. Even though he consulted the wrong people to have the dreams explained, the fact is that God got his attention. God can visit even ungodly people in the night and trouble their spirits – even President Obama – when it suits His purposes. May God trouble our leaders in the midnight hours, and cause them to seek godly counsel.
TODAY'S THOUGHT: God can get the attention of ungodly people through puzzling dreams.
Have a dreamy day. Love you.
