DREAM:

Good morning sir, More anointing sir. May God continue to renew your strength sir. I heard a dream. It goes like this. I entered the church and I saw children
They sat at the Pastor's seat and the rest sat round the altar. And the whole church was filled with children.
I noticed that physically, anyone that attended our church will leave the church to another place. Even the minister. I don't know what is happening in the church. Since the prayers yesterday I have been troubled with the dream. Please, what is the meaning of the dream

INTERPRETATIONS:

This is a dream of revelation and instruction concerning the spiritual condition of the church rather than a prediction of destruction.

INTERPRETATION

1. The church filled with children

Children in dreams can represent several things spiritually:

• Spiritual babes who need growth and discipleship.
• New converts.
• Immaturity in spiritual understanding.
• A future generation God is preparing.

1 Corinthians 3:1

I could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.

The dream suggests that God is drawing attention to the need for spiritual growth and maturity within the congregation.

2. Children sitting on the pastor's seat

The pastor's seat represents spiritual authority, leadership, and responsibility.

Children occupying that seat may indicate one of the following:

• A lack of mature leadership in certain areas. • People assuming responsibilities they are not yet spiritually prepared for. • God showing that the church needs mentoring and raising of spiritual sons and daughters.

This is not necessarily an attack but a call to prayer and spiritual development.

3. Children sitting around the altar

The altar represents worship, prayer, sacrifice, and God's presence.

This can be a positive sign that God desires to raise a generation that will be close to His altar. However, it may also indicate that many people are still at a beginner stage spiritually and need deeper teaching.

4. Your concern that members and ministers keep leaving

Since this concern was already in your heart before the dream, the dream may be God's way of directing attention to the root issue.

When a church is filled symbolically with children, it can suggest instability, lack of spiritual maturity, insufficient discipleship, or people not being firmly rooted.

Ephesians 4:14

That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro.

MEANING IN SUMMARY:

The dream does not primarily speak of witches, attacks, or destruction. It appears to be a call for prayer concerning spiritual growth, stability, discipleship, and the raising of mature believers. God may be showing that the church needs more spiritual fathers and mothers who can nurture believers into maturity.

PRAYER POINTS:

1. O Lord, raise mature and committed believers in our church.

2. Every spirit of instability and inconsistency among members, be broken.

3. Let the spirit of discipleship and spiritual growth rest upon the church.

4. Lord, establish every member in faith and purpose.

5. Raise faithful labourers and leaders for Your work.

PRACTICAL INSIGHT:

Do not focus only on those who have left. Focus on strengthening those who remain. Churches grow stronger when believers are discipled, grounded in Scripture, and connected to God's purpose rather than merely attending services.

Prophetic Insight:

The dream is not showing an empty church but a full church. That is significant. God is showing potential, growth, and a people that need nurturing. Rather than a message of loss, it is a call to build, teach, mentor, and pray. As the church grows in spiritual maturity, God can bring stability and increase. Amen.
