We need to look at what we’ve done in reality rather than what we’ve done in our dreams. God shows us what we have experienced or will experience in reality through dreams. That is why our focus should be on deciphering our reality instead of our dreams.

Our reality is more important than the things we see in our dreams. If we do well in reality, then it doesn’t matter if God shows us things in our dreams. In other words, doing well in reality is the same as having a good dream. God can also give you revelations in reality.

 

A dream I had

The inspiration for this message came to me in a dream. In the dream, I went to a place I visit occasionally. After waking up, I thought about the dream I had but couldn’t remember much. So I kept pondering about the dream.

At that time, the Holy Spirit gave me an inspiration:

“Reality is more important than dreams. Do the work you need to get done now in reality.”

Thus, rather than continuing to ruminate on the dream that I had, I worked on what I needed to do at that time. That is how I came to write this message. Today, I will deliver the inspirations the Holy Spirit gave me, so listen carefully.

 

God gives two kinds of blessings

When God blesses people, He gives them a pair of blessings. A pair of blessings means that there are both physical blessings and spiritual blessings.

Blessings from people consist only of one kind: physical blessings. Only God gives both physical and spiritual blessings. Regardless of where you are, God’s blessings remain as blessings.

God gives you blessings wherever you go. Even if you venture into the middle of a war zone, you will still receive blessings there. And as a result, you will escape from death.

Since God is with you, even death will overlook you.

I’ve also had dozens of close calls with death during my time in the Vietnam War. But since God was with me during those times, I survived.

Once God blesses you, you will receive those blessings regardless of where you are. But if your deeds are unrighteous, you will not be able to receive His blessings.

If your deeds belong to the world of righteousness, they will shine. Therefore, darkness, death, pain, evil, and unrighteousness will all avoid you. On the other hand, if your deeds belong to the world of unrighteousness, they will become dark. And so, darkness will devour you.

You need to belong to the world of righteousness and receive God’s blessings. Only then will you receive the two-sided pair of blessings. Only then will your woes become blessings.

 

God gives His two-sided pair of blessings when He feels it is appropriate

Abraham was someone who received God’s blessings. Since he received blessings wherever he went, he wasn’t constrained to one place.

On the other hand, Lot—Abraham’s nephew—was unable to receive God’s blessings. He lived in the land of Sodom, which people called a flourishing land. Yet, he still couldn’t receive the blessing of material wealth there.

In the end, the land of Sodom became a place of God’s judgement. It was at that time that Lot finally received God’s blessing of barely escaping death.

David also received God’s pair of blessings at his time. That is why he received physical blessings and became a king while receiving heaven’s blessings in the spirit.

Job was no different. Since he had overcome satans and tribulations even amid temptations, God blessed him again with material wealth.

These cases of blessings don’t simply apply to biblical figures. They also apply to people who are currently alive.

 

One-sided blessings cannot be called perfect blessings

You can enjoy physical blessings during the time you have a body. But if you fail to receive spiritual blessings, your spirit will suffer forever. If your spirit suffers like that, it will regret even the things it had enjoyed in the world.

You can break this down even further. If a person lives physically centered on himself for a single day, that person receives and enjoys only physical blessings on that day. It’s like a person who lives alone because he only loves himself.

God created things to be in pairs. So His blessings also come as counterparts. Homosexual love is not a blessing God had intended to bestow when he gave us counterparts. Even for heterosexual love, if you do not do it within God’s Will, it is only a physical blessing. Since God gives His blessing in pairs, you have to find the spiritual blessings as well. Then you will be blessed forever.

In order to receive the eternal blessing, you should love our eternal God in the spirit.

Also, since God gives blessings through the Lord, you should pair up with the Lord. The Lord is someone who had fulfilled  everything on your behalf, even in the midst of suffering on the cross.

Now that the Lord has resurrected and come to glory, the history of blessings will multiply both physically and spiritually. I hope you will receive all of those blessings!
