Are my dreams from god?

The biological basis for dreams is pretty well understood. During the day, your brain gathers all kinds of sensory input, experiences, etc...
I have never quite believed this to be true, my dreams bear no relation to events that have taken place in the day.
for example, last night i dreamt my father was driving a red car and was lost in London, now this bears no similarity to any event that happened the previous day or at any other day & that is just one example out of hundreds of differing dreams i have had.

Hi, i believe God's word to be true but i think it would be best to ask Him if you've had specific dreams. God spoke to Daniel , Jacob and Joseph to name a few in dreams which were clearly unmistakably from God Himself...sometimes a dream does contains a message of emotional healing from something that's bothered us or a clear understanding of a problem we might have..i believe it's one way God chooses to speak to us. Dreams are sometimes just our minds sifting through what's gone on with us over days or weeks...i cant say if yours are from God, but in a nut-shell;
God absolutely talks to us in dreams...hope this helps..

Hmm, in the "last days" huh? Then how come people have been dreaming as long as there have been people??
The biological basis for dreams is pretty well understood. During the day, your brain gathers all kinds of sensory input, experiences, etc. Most of this goes into short-term memory while it happens. At night, when you're asleep, your brain sorts and shuffles the days' data into long term memory, making new neural connections to store it there -- and the new neural connections get created in and among the existing ones. Doing so "activates" the existing memories, and your subconscious "sees" this stream of new and old memories getting accessed...this is what dreams are.
Isn't it interesting that science has found the biological basis for dreams, and can quite easily explain the mechanism...but as much as they've searched in people's heads, they've never seen any evidence of god. Wonder why that is? :)
Peace.

a number of them are definately made up from our extraordinary and wacky imaginations and issues that take place in the process our lives. (My maximum unearthly desires are whilst i've got have been given a temperature.) Then there are others which i've got had the place I do experience confident that God is in touch, usually having the ability to appreciate them on the time or later on. one in each of my friends has desires that come real, i.e. she dreamt that a solid Christian could bypass away church and God, yet come back with a toddler. yet another pal had her mum and pal having the comparable dream, that she replaced into gonna die if she stayed along with her boyfriend. She has in view that left him. desires could be messages from God, yet do no longer attempt to get a divine interpretation from a dream the place you're a chocolate mousse, in the refrigerator chatting with the cheese.

Not most of them. Usually they are just your brain sorting stuff out. However God does very rarely use dreams to speak to people. But that will be very direct and not easily mistaken for something natural.

No, they're really not. When you're dreaming, you're experiencing the effects of a really large dose of hallucinogenic compounds administered, and manufactured, by your own brain.
You simply cannot take dreams seriously.

They are most likely coming from your brain. Your dreams are like a mirror image of your experience in reality, just more abstract...

No god does not say anything. That is men making up this sort of thing and claiming god said it.

dreams are your minds way of sorting out events which occur in waking life.
