How to Avoid Storm Chasing

 

 

The thing about prophetic dreams, is we often don’t fully understand everything until they take place. It was about a decade ago when God started to give me “blueprints” of things that would come in the future during my dreams.

 

At the time when I was given them, I was certain that there were prophetic events that would take place with those specific people that God had showed me.

 

It wasn’t until years and year later, when the Holy Spirit revealed the true meaning of those dreams. There were some regarding a person in my life at that time who was like an enemy to me. He tormented and abused me with manipulation and fears. I always felt like I was suffocating with anxiety anytime that he was around.

 

When God took him away from my life, it felt like I was learning how to breathe again. I finally felt how to think and move throughout my life without that heavy oppression that seemed to be attached to him.

 

I learned over the years that the dreams that I had about that person were always symbolic of “fear” trying to destroy and take away my promises from God.

 

Because of how that person made me feel, God would show me spiritual things with that person’s face, to help me understand what I was dealing with.

 

I also found out that some of the things that God showed me that would happen appeared differently in real life. I had dreams of a certain person being in my life and fulfilling a prophetic prophecy that God had planned to help me during that time.

 

When the prophecy was fulfilled, I was surprised to see that the person that showed up on the scene was not who I was shown it would be in my dream. However, the person that did show up was very similar in spiritually and mentally. It was the same emotionally…but with a different face.

 

Back when the prophecy was given, God showed me symbolically of what would come in the natural. It was very eye-opening, because I realized that I had done several things from my lack of understanding over the years of waiting.

 

For one, I held bitterness against the person of my past, because I would see these battles happening in my dreams with him…not realizing that the battles were with my own fears and doubts trying to rob me of my promises from God.

 

I had to go through a lot of forgiveness and releasing my pain that I was holding against that person. Eventually I had to even let them go completely, to make room for the new people that God was bringing into my life.

 

I also realized that I was not being open to the wondrous ways that God could move in my life, because I was so set on certain people playing certain roles. I didn’t realize that they were symbolic—until after the events took place.

 

Don’t get me wrong, there will be some prophetic dreams that are not symbolic at all and the exact characters in the prophetic dreams will come in real life. However, that is not always the case.

 

One night, God showed me that I was “storm chasing”. I saw a vision of myself following after destructive tornadoes, as though I was trying to get myself killed.

 

Then He let me walk through some situations in the natural, when I was believing that something bad was going to happen because I believed in a bad dream or bad thought.

 

After I walked through the “storm chasing” time, God showed me that I was unknowingly trying to materialized curses into my life (bad things) by centering my thoughts, imagination, and focus on the agreement with those bad outcomes.

 

However, thankfully… God protected me from those destructive forces taking me out, and He gave me the grace to change and realign my mind and heart with what He promised.

 

There were some things that I had been agreeing with for years, because I was deceived by bad thoughts that came as an intrusion into my mind, and bad dreams that were not from God.

 

God used those things to train me in high levels of spiritual warfare, and I learned how to discern what was and wasn’t from God. I learned that if it is a bad outcome, if it causes you to feel disturbed and in fear…it’s not from Him.

 

God has always brought out the fulfillment of my hopes instead of dreads…and I found that my hopes were the safest place to anchor my mind.

 

A few years ago, God took me through a soul healing from the bad outcomes that I have allowed myself to attach to, when believing in fears and doubts. He told me that I needed to come clean and repent for allowing fears to hurt my promises from God.

 

In the encounter, God showed me my promise from Him as my youngest child, symbolically. Our promises from God are something that we have to love and protect as though they are our children.

 

I woke up crying, because I realized that I had been allowing those fearful thoughts and fearful imaginations to abuse my precious promises from God. The promises from God are a gift from Him—just like our physical children are.

 

I spent the next day praying over my offenses of letting fear and doubt abuse my baby (promises from God). Then God brought in His healing mercy, and He told me that I needed to cut off every fearful thought from then on.

 

Fearful thoughts or believing in bad outcomes (such as bad dreams) are very much like being in an abusive relationship, and they will murder our promises if we allow the abuse to go too far.

 

The most powerful way to worship and love God is by what we think about. One night, God told me to worship Him with my thoughts, by only thinking the love-filled and hope-filled thoughts of what He has promised.

 

He showed me that I needed to put to death every fearful and doubting thought and no longer allow the abuse to go on. As our soul prospers (mind, will, and emotions) then our lives will prosper into all that God has promised.

 

We are not waiting for Him to come and do what He promised… He is waiting for us to believe it with complete agreement–mind, will, and emotions. Many people can speak God’s promises as though they believe them…but they cannot figure out how to feel the emotion that they are real and tangible.

 

There is too much doubt…and too much fear…blocking their heart from truly opening to receive the promises as real. Our feelings are like a compass pointing to what we currently believe. It is not always the direction that we need to be going.

 

Those blockages only go by prayer (believing that we have already received, like in Mark 11:24) and by fasting (fasting from negativity, such as fear and doubt).

 

Many healing experts say that in order for the body to heal with nutrients in vitamin rich foods, it first needs to detox all the toxins and garbage out. That is true spiritually too.

 

Before we can see the prosperity of God’s promises flourish into our life. We need to detox out all the negative thoughts, negative feelings, bad dreams, and fears.

 

Going even deeper than that….

 

In order to fully detox out all the negative energy of fears and doubts that block our promises from coming to the surface, we need to remove the roots of uncertainty.

 

Because where there is uncertainty, there is doubt. It is like poison that kills a plant from the inside out.

 

That is why hope is the most powerful thing there is. Your hope (when you put faith in them) has the power to cleanse out all of your fears and doubts.

 

During these several years of having to press into God’s promise to overcome life or death situations, it always came down to one thing…

 

God always told me to only think and imagine what I hope to happen. Hope was the thing that God showed me to use in order to see His promises bloom over all the muddiness of doubt, fear, and uncertainty.

 

I invite you to join me on a spiritual cleanse to flush out all the fears and doubts that are blocking us from receiving the fulfillment of our prayers and promises.

 

 

Starting today, let’s purge out those toxins of negativity that are blocking the fulfillment that we need and hope for.

 

 

Here is the plan:

 

  • Break up with negative thoughts, feelings, and imaginations. Spend some time repenting to God for allowing them to abuse your promised life. Then completely cut off every negative feeling, thought, and vision that may come about in your life and situations.
  • The moment that a negative thought, bad feeling, or fearful vision appears–immediately cast it down and think and imagine something that you hope to happen instead. That is a key to reprogramming the promise into alignment…you must replace the negative with a positive.
  • It may be hard at first. Most people are unknowingly addicted to the negative thinking, because of the all the trauma and pain that we have been through during such a long life. It is a toxic and abusive relationship that needs to end for good, so that the true love relationship can take place.
  • This healing of prospering into our dreams and promises from God begins with cleanse. Because we cannot receive and absorb all the Goodness that God has given us, if we have blockages that are in the way.
  • Try to apply this method with a commitment of at least 3 days straight, and hopefully it will become something that will transform your situation very fast.
  • After God asked me to repent for the abusive relationship with fear, He gave me a promise that there would be a rapid release of hopes coming after that. Once all the pipes are clear–the water runs strong and fast. With the blockages removed, the high waves of love coming pouring in!

 

 

I pray that this will bring out something that you have deeply desired to happen, come to pass very fast. The rapid release is going to take place as soon as we start the process of the cleanse of negative thoughts.

 

 

Get ready to receive what you hope for to be done—and don’t be surprised when it comes faster than you were prepared to see and quicker than you expected it to unfold.

 

Love, Dannette
