She’s known as Claudia Procula and had a bit part in the Passion Story. She had a disturbing dream regarding the accused blasphemer and self-professed King of the Jews. It was real enough in her mind to go to her husband and plead for the life of Jesus.
Matthew 27:19 Besides, while he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent word to him, “Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered much because of him today in a dream.”
I’ve had some very realistic, frightening dreams, so I can totally relate to this woman. The vision becomes a reality for a moment and when you wake, you are convinced that your dream was true.
Does God place dreams in our minds for a purpose? Sometimes our dreams can turn into realities if they’re within our reach. We may set goals and then dream how to fulfill them. Dreams can give rise to anxiety too. Maybe something is going on in your life that you’re struggling with and you come up with a solution through a dream. Our minds have been intricately and beautifully created. I’m certain that the Holy Spirit works within us in many ways, and maybe even through our dreams.
Of course, Mrs. Pilate’s dream caused her unrest, but her husband didn’t heed her warning. His hands were tied when it came to the crowd that screamed for crucifixion. There was nothing he could do but give in to their demands. That decision, by Pilate, was part of a greater plan God intended for His Son and for all of us. Each step towards the cross – even though filled with ugliness, cruelty, scorn, torture and pain – was paving the way for us to walk into eternity free of the weight of sin and guilt.

Sue, my wife has been (blessed?) at times with dreams from the Lord. She always knows them from JUST dreams because of the realness AND the message the Lord speaks. Doesn’t happen often, but when they do, I can always tell she’s heard something from the Lord. God DOES speak to His servants, we just have to be willing to listen! Sis, have you watched the Chosen, which is in it’s 3rd season now? Just curious.

Yes I have seen all of the Chosen. I love the focus on the importance of faith in our journey. The fact that the disciples are younger men also makes sense to me, especially since the average man at the time didn’t live much beyond 30. The series are well done, but there’s nothing like the true story❤️

I dream so much that I have had to start praying that I would ONLY remember the dreams that the Lord wants to use to tell me something. This became evident when I was taking a course in dream interpretation, and I was spending a large portion of each morning writing out my dreams and interpreting them in my journal. My dream life was becoming more interesting than my waking life! Now I remember few of my dreams – but they’re good ones. 😉

The Lord’s Word is most assuredly true when He used Joel to prophesy! His children today are certainly proof of His unchanging Word. God Bless! Happy Resurrection day!
