We join with you in prayer in Jesus' name and we hear the distress and fear in your heart over these dreams and the financial pressure you feel with Monday approaching. We know how troubling repeated dreams can be, especially when they speak of loss, abandonment, and betrayal, and we want to bring this before the Lord together with you, asking for His peace, protection, and provision.

The Word reminds us that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control, 2 Timothy 1:7. Fearful dreams often come from the multitude of cares and anxieties we carry, Ecclesiastes 5:3, and they are not necessarily a prophecy of what will happen. We can bring every anxious thought to the Lord, for He cares for us, 1 Peter 5:7, and we are told, Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus, Philippians 4:6-7.

We also hear your cry for God to deal with the one who you feel has lied to you and turned others against you. We understand that pain, and we gently remind one another what Scripture teaches about how we handle those who wrong us. Vengeance belongs to the Lord, Romans 12:19 says, Vengeance is mine, says the Lord, I will repay. And Jesus calls us to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us, Matthew 5:44. So instead of asking God to harm or punish, we ask God to bring truth to light, to convict where there has been lying, to bring repentance, and to stop any scheme or injustice before it can cause harm. We pray for justice with mercy, and we release the need for personal revenge into God's hands, trusting Him as the righteous judge.

We also pray for your financial need, for God knows what you need before you ask. My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus, Philippians 4:19. We pray that if it is His will, He will provide for what is needed by Monday, and even if the answer looks different than you expect, that He will keep you and not let you lose everything, for we know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose, Romans 8:28. We pray for wisdom for you to take practical steps as well, to seek godly counsel, to be diligent and honest in your dealings, and to trust the Lord to make a way.

Let us pray together.

Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our only mediator and Savior, and we lift up this dear one to You. Lord, You see the fear and the heaviness from these repeated dreams, the voice that threatens loss, the fear of being abandoned and betrayed. We ask in Jesus' name that You rebuke fear and grant Your perfect peace that guards heart and mind. Let no weapon formed against Your child prosper, Isaiah 54:17, and let every lying tongue be silenced by Your truth. Lord, if there has been lying and manipulation against this dear one, we ask that You expose the truth, convict the heart of the one who has lied, and lead her to repentance, and we ask that You stop any plan that would bring unjust harm. We forgive as You have forgiven us, and we leave justice in Your hands.

Father, we pray against these troubling dreams, that they will have no power and will not come to pass if they are not from You. We ask that You give restful sleep and assurance that You are in control. Lord, we bring the financial need before You, the deadline of Monday and the fear of losing everything. You are Jehovah Jireh, our provider. Please provide according to Your will, open doors that no man can shut, and give wisdom and favor in every conversation and decision. Help Your child to cast all anxiety on You and to walk in faith, not in fear. Let Your will be done, not our fears. We thank You that You are our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble, Psalm 46:1. We ask all this in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

We encourage you to continue to seek the Lord earnestly, to spend time in His Word and in prayer, and to remember that He is your protector and provider. When fear rises, speak Scripture aloud and remind yourself that the Lord is with you. If there are practical financial steps you can take before Monday, seek wise and trustworthy counsel. We are standing with you, praying that God's truth will prevail, that peace will replace fear, and that you will find victory in Christ, for greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world, 1 John 4:4.

We hear how frightening this has been for you, waking up from the same kind of dream over and over and carrying that Monday deadline and the fear of losing everything. When anxiety is high and there is real pressure about money and relationships, it makes sense that sleep would be restless and that those dreams would feel like warnings.

Dreams that repeat under stress can feel very convincing, but they are not a picture of what must happen. It can help to gently separate what you saw in sleep from what is actually true today. One step that often steadies the heart is to write down on paper what you know for certain about Monday, what is still unclear, and who is a safe, trusted person you can talk with about it this weekend. Bringing one wise person into the facts with you, whether a pastor or a trusted counselor, can make the next decision clearer and less lonely.

We are carrying this with you before the Lord and we will keep praying for peace for your mind at night, for wisdom for each practical step, and for truth to be clear where you have felt misled or opposed.

Father, we bring our brother to You in Jesus name. You see the burden he is carrying and the fear that has followed him into sleep. Quiet his heart, guard his rest, and give him clear wisdom for what is needed before Monday. Lead him to trustworthy help and let Your peace and direction be near to him. Amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your heart has been sore troubled by these dreams and by the heaviness of what may come on Monday, and I am moved with compassion for you in this distress. You have had many fears in the night season, and the fear of losing all, and of unkind tongues and false dealing, has pressed upon your spirit by day. Hear then the word of the Lord which so often sounds like a sweet bell through Scripture, Fear not.

Have you not found that the very anxiety which arises through your being in a difficulty unfits you to meet that difficulty. Fear is weakening. It dishonors God, as though the arm which piled the heavens and sustains the pillars of the earth could ever be palsied, or the heart which so loved us as to give His Son could ever forget His own. When ### feared his brother ###, though the angels of God had met him and the promise of God was sure to him, his fear was without good reason and it brought him low. So it is with us. We must labor to get rid, as much as possible, of fear, for fear has torment, and perfect love casts it out.

There is a fear which is to be desired, a fear of God which draws us toward Him, not away from Him. The fear which drives a man from God is a vice, but the fear which makes a man search for God, confess his guilt, and receive pardon through Jesus Christ alone, is a virtue to be cultivated. If you have received the forgiveness of God through the blood of His Son, He will put His fear in your heart that you shall not depart from Him. Therefore look first to Christ, who lived and was dead and behold He is alive forevermore. He has borne the sting of death and sin for all who trust Him, and He says, Fear not, I am with thee. If all the forces on earth are not sufficient to save His saint, He will send from Heaven to preserve His people.

As for the hard words and disapproval and the lying of which you speak, know that the wounds from a cruel tongue can cut to the quick, yet the Lord sees and hears. Vengeance belongs to Him, not to us. We are not to ask the Lord to deal with another in a spirit of wrath, but to commit our cause to Him who judges righteously, praying that truth may be made plain, that every lie may be brought to light, and that even those who have opposed you may be brought to repentance and to the knowledge of the truth. Our Lord bids us pray for those who despitefully use us, and to forgive as we have been forgiven.

And concerning your dreams, do not let them be masters over you. God is sovereign over the night as well as the day, and no dream can establish what God has not ordained. Bring them to the Lord in prayer and leave them there. Ask Him for quiet sleep and for a mind stayed upon His promises.

Let us pray together.

O Lord our God, Thou who hast called Thy people from the ends of the earth and hast said, Fear not for I am with thee, look in mercy upon this troubled one. Thou knowest the burden concerning provision for Monday, the fear of loss, the sting of false words and disapproval. Forgive all sin through the precious blood of Jesus Christ, and give a new heart and a new spirit. Cast out tormenting fear by Thy perfect love, and grant faith to rest upon Thy promise, I will help thee, saith the Lord. Provide according to Thy wisdom and goodness, and keep this Thy servant from being swallowed up by anxiety. Let truth prevail, restrain what is false and hurtful, and give grace to forgive and to seek peace. Grant quietness in the night, and let no fear govern the heart, but let Christ govern all. Preserve from the reproach of those that would swallow up, and cause Thy peace which passeth all understanding to keep heart and mind through Christ Jesus. In His name we ask it, Amen.
