Sometime back, I saw a dream in which I was going up in a lift on the outside of a building. The lift was half open to the outside, meaning that it had railings waist high, the top half being open. In the lift with me was a teen aged boy, son of a young widow, whom I knew for quite a while. He was fidgety as the lift went up, a strange fear writ on his face. He attempted to climb the top of the railings and jump out. I stopped him from doing so twice, but every few moments that passed by, he kept trying even more to do so. The dream ended there.
Every now and then, we read about suicides that happen around us, people taking their lives in desperation because of various reasons. There are evil spirits that incite a person to commit suicide, when the person is desperate. Taking one's own life is a sin and is against the teachings of the Bible.
Through this dream, the Lord was telling me to pray for this boy, so that the evil spirit that was influencing him to harm himself would be stopped from doing so. God is good, all the time.
Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless his holy name! Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: who forgives all your iniquities, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from destruction, who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies, who satisfies your mouth with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's. (Psalm 103:1-5)

Could this have been Apostle Paul's Thorn?
Sometime back I saw a dream in which the Apostle Paul was being led by a soldier with his hands bound with chains. The Apostle looked to be in his forties and had a beard. After a while the soldier commanded him to kneel down which he obeyed. As the soldier began walking away, suddenly Paul jumped to his feet and pushed the soldier down with his chained hands, making him fall to the ground. The dream ended there.
Could a retaliatory attitude have been Paul's thorn in the flesh was the thought that impressed my mind the following morning when I woke up. The Bible doesn't specifically mention what Paul's thorn was, though many have put forth guesses like an eye ailment, epilepsy, malaria and a few more.
We read in 2 Corinthians Chapter 12
And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure. Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me, but He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my strength is made perfect in weakness." Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. (2 Corinthians 12:7-9)
Regarding the retaliatory attitude, we read of an event recorded in the book of Acts.....
Luke the Physician writes,
Then Paul, looking earnestly at the council, said, "Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day." When he said thus, the high priest Ananias commanded those who stood by him to strike him on the mouth. Then Paul said to him, "God will strike you, you whitewashed wall! For you sit to judge me according to the law, and do you command me to be struck contrary to the law?" Those who stood told Paul, "Do you revile God's high priest?" Paul replied, "I did not know, brethren, that he was the high priest; for it is written, "You shall not speak evil of a ruler of your people."' (Acts 23:1-5)
Paul speaks about the weakness of his and every believer's flesh when he writes to the Romans...
For I know that in me (my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find. For the good that I want to do, I do not do; but the evil I do not want to do, that I do. Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. (Romans 7:18-20)
The great Apostle probably had his moments of weaknesses too, but he taught and lived a Christian life that overcame sin and unrighteousness.
Those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. (Galatians 5:24)
Indeed Paul was a great Apostle, a true champion of the Christian faith.

Trump is coming
I saw this dream while taking a short nap in the afternoon, a day before the US elections. In the dream, I entered a posh restaurant where a man was busy arranging tables and chairs and putting flower vases on the tables. I watched him for a while and then being curious to know why he was working so urgently, I asked him the same. He smiled at me and all he told me was "Trump is coming", before making himself busy again. The dream ended there.
When I woke up after my nap, the next day being election day, I had a fairly good idea who God's choice for President of the US was. All I did was pray a small prayer that what I saw in the dream would come true. And it did come true.
I believe perhaps my prayer was among the smallest for God's choice of the president and God would have made tens of thousands to pray the same as he had made me (with or without dreams).
We read in the book of Daniel....
Daniel answered and said: "Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, for wisdom and might are His and He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding." (Daniel 2:20, 21)
Yes, it is God who removes kings and raises up kings....also Presidents & Prime Ministers.
We do not know how Donald Trump will fare as the new president of the USA, but God has his plans and purposes for every person and for every nation. Only time will tell how things go with him and the country he leads. Whatever it be, we live in the end times and we need to keep praying that we be found worthy to join the Lord Jesus Christ when he comes back to gather his faithful.
