Walking in dream language and tapping into the mind and heart of God can be an exciting and exhilarating journey. But understanding and interpreting the revelation He gives in dreams can often be a complex and even confusing process.

These 15 keys will help you to simplify the process of dream interpretation:

  1. Most of all, dreams should be interpreted on a personal basis first (John 10:3).
  2. Most dreams should not be taken literally. They need interpretation (Dan. 1:17; Gen. 40:8).
  3. God will use familiar terms that you know (Matt. 4:19).
  4. Ponder on the dream or revelation and ask the Holy Spirit for insight (Daniel 7:8; 8:15-16; Luke 2:19; 1 Cor. 2:10-12).
  5. Ask the Holy Spirit what the central thought, word or issue is in the revelation. Reduce the dream to its simplest form. What is the main thought?
