A few nights ago I had a dream. It is my belief that the dream reveals a scheme of the enemy not only against myself but against many in the Body of Christ. I believe that I have been given a partial revelation as to the interpretation. As my understanding is opened through prayer and/or interpretation through others I will post updates. If you believe you have a different interpretation or more to add please contact me. I am not sharing this dream in order to promote fear, but so that others will not be unaware of the enemy's schemes ( 2 Cor 2:11). The proper response to any scheme of Satan is found in Ephesians 6:10-11; " Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil." However do I wish to add a caution from Jude 9; "But Michael the archangel, when he disputed with the devil and argued about the body of Moses, did not dare pronounce against him a railing judgment, but said, 'The Lord rebuke you!' "

The Dream
In the dream I am going to look at my new baby. I am in a hospital and walking through a corridor and in the corridor there is a crowd of women surrounding the mother who is holding the baby. The women are on either side of the woman who is holding the baby, yet the entire group is facing towards me as I am walking towards them. However I can't see anyone’s face but only the body from the neck down and I notice that they are dressed in regular, even casual clothes. I can't tell how many there are, maybe a dozen at the most. I do not know any of the women in the group, including the woman holding the baby.
When I first see the baby, I can only see the left side. The baby is wrapped in a blanket and has a little cap on, much like it had just been born. The baby seems and looks “normal” (it is sleeping), but then suddenly it seems too large. It has become more the size of an 18-24 month old-toddler than a new-born baby. Then suddenly the baby changes again but this time it is awake. The “baby’s” whole body is now different. It suddenly has the face and head of a bald old man with many wrinkles and elongated limbs that have the appearance of someone who is starving. It looks at me and has an evil grin on it's face and a demonic intelligence in its eyes. As I am looking at the “baby” I am then able to see the right side of its body. Starting at its right shoulder and running down its right side there are a series of large, fatty tumors. Then the scene changes. I am looking at the “baby” who is more like a "toddler" now and its whole body and face have changed again. It now has the appearance of long, lean bat with no wings. Its body is very lean and thin, but yet muscular. The body is a very pale white with a slightly bluish tinge. It is also has a veiny look. The feet have claws. The face is definitely not human, again like a bat’s face. As I am watching the “toddler” is trying to learn how to walk but is not yet able. The woman who was holding it before is now holding it up by both hands as it is trying to walk but its feet seem to keep slipping out from under it. The “child” continues to look at me and has an evil grin. I then see a close-up of the face and head; I then notice that the “baby” has bright, pale blue lips and black hair which has a short, spikey look.

The Interpretation
As I stated before, I believe that I have been given only a partial interpretation of the dream at this time, and that more may be revealed later. I also believe that others will read this and be given insight that I have not. We know in part...we need to join with others who have other parts to have a more complete picture (1 Cor 13:9).
First of all, the fact that the dream revolves around "my baby" it means that a) the scheme is aimed at me (and others) on a personal level and b)it is something that may have been just recently "birthed". Just as I am writing this the Holy Spirit revealed to me the meaning of being in the hospital walking in a corridor and it is in the corridor, not a room where I encounter the "baby" and the group of women. This is significant as it tells me that the attack will come when I am in a time of healing and transition (exactly how I would describe the season I am in now).
The group of women represent humans who are in league with the enemy; in fact it is my distinct impression that they represent an actual group of witches (a coven is usually around 12-13 people) who are actively working against the people and purposed of The Lord and His people. The fact that they are dressed in regular and even casual clothes means that they could be someone we know casually or in passing. The fact that their faces are hidden I believe means that even if we do "know" them, we really don't know them, as who they truly serve and what they do is hidden. We need to remember Ephesians 6:12-13, "12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm." We should pray for these people; "44 But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous." Matthew 5:44-45. We need to seek the Lord for wisdom and discernment on how to handle specific situations as the Holy Spirit reveals more.
So I am "presented" the baby; the meaning of this is a little unclear to me. I believe this is deliberate because the specific circumstances in which the scheme will begin to manifest will be different for different people. To be sure whatever the specifics at first the situation will look innocent enough (what is more innocent than a sleeping newborn baby?). However, if we have wisdom and discernment, the true nature of the scheme will begin to reveal itself. The accelerated growth of the "baby" I think means that quite simply however it begins, the scheme will unfold very rapidly.
I strongly believe that the revealed appearance of the "baby" is a clue as to the mechanism of attack. The appearance of an old, thin and weak individual means that the attack will first manifest as a physical attack; perhaps some sort of disease. The fatty tumors I believe represent some sort of excess behavior; eating, drinking etc. The fact that the tumors are on the right side only lead me to believe that the attack against the physical body will be aimed at causing an overall physical weakness. This is done through disease and/or trying to exacerbate any sort tendency to use eating, drinking etc as a means of comfort; in other words, they are idols. Many diseases are the result of overeating, drinking etc. As I have been writing this section, the Holy Spirit has revealed to me that the remedy and/or defense for these are repentance, prayer and fasting; especially fasting. Fasting should be part of every believer's lifestyle (Matthew 6:17-18, Matthew 9:14-15, Matthew 17 14:19).
In the next part of the dream the "baby" is more of a "toddler", however it has a completely different appearance. The scheme has begun to "mature" but even so it has been revealed to not be of human origin but demonic. The fact that it is trying to walk with help means it is still somehow getting human support. The fact that it keeps slipping means I believe that the scheme is actually weak and the enemy will be unable to "stand it's ground" against us (James 4:7). The coloration of the "toddler" here is significant; the pale white with the blue tinge, as well as the blue lips all are colors associated we would normally associate with heavenly beings. I believe that the demon associated with this particular scheme will in some fashion try to pass itself off as from the Lord; a religious spirit perhaps. "13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 15 Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their deeds" 2 Cor 11:13-15. Am I sensing that the blue lips are of particular importance, as I only noticed them when I was shown a closeup of the demon's face.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In closing, I wish to add that at no time during the dream did I feel in any danger. Surprise, and shock to be sure. But even when the baby/toddler/demonic spirit was looking at me and grinning I did not feel fear. "The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the defense of my life; Whom shall I dread? 2 When evildoers came upon me to devour my flesh, My adversaries and my enemies, they stumbled and fell. 3 Though a host encamp against me, My heart will not fear; Though war arise against me, In spite of this I shall be confident." Psalm 27:1-3
