How to Interpret Dreams and Visions Perry Stone
5. God speaks through dreams and visions. I was amused recently when a near relative was witnessing to another individual about the deeper things of the Holy Spirit. My relative was informing this particular spiritual unbeliever of how the Lord had warned me on several occasions about events that would come to pass in the nation, including my 9/11 vision of the twin towers and the dream vision of the oil crisis in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Louisiana. This skeptic said he did not believe that God spoke to anyone in our day in any fashion except through the Bible. The relative then asked, “How do you explain Perry’s receiving these warnings, which were so direct and clear that it could not be denied that they were 100 percent accurate?” The answer was, “He has some type of psychic powers!” I was amazed that according to this man, a person could have some type of counterfeit power, but God was helpless to use His own power to reveal the future! These same accusations were thrown at Christ when He performed miracles. The religious Pharisees accused Him of being possessed with a demon and of performing His miracles by the power of Beelzebub (Matt. 12:24). This lie was intended to frighten the multitudes from following Christ, as no one wants to be associated with anyone operating through a demonic influence. The Bible teaches that in the last days God will pour out His Spirit upon all flesh, and this deluge of God’s presence will be accompanied by “your young men shall see visions, your old men shall dream dreams” (Acts 2:17). Today’s prophetic ministers continually remind people that we are in the last days ,
