I had a friend whom I was interested in and thought she was a good christian woman. There seemed to be a mutual interest. But we remained only friends…Her ex was in her life.

One night I had a very revealing, vivid dream. In a previous dream, I had once seen a man with the most loving eyes so happy to see me, whom I described in my dream post, “Encounter with a Jewish Man.” The same man appeared in this dream. But he came in a different body form this time. He looked like a guy from my High School days…I knew who he was because I recognized his eyes…They were large and full of life, and he knew me and loved me. But they were so sad, red, and watery. He was still... and waiting for me…Was I disappointing him?

In this dream, I was following behind my friend. She was walking with a little boy holding his hand. They were headed somewhere. I passed by this very familiar man and told him, "I’ll be back in five minutes". He remained silent and looked at me very sad and disappointed. I was not sure if he was sad about me passing him by or if he was sad that I was doing something that would hurt my life…

My friend and the boy stopped at a dwelling. We were outside looking at it. The outside front wall was gone, which exposed the entire room. There was a large bed in the center of the room which took up most of the space. That’s all there was in the room.

I woke up concerned about the man’s very sad look towards me. I knew it was Jesus. I realized he was in the form of a guy from my past. I believe he embodied this familiar face from my past to remind me not to commit the sins of my past. So I promised God that I would not get sexually involved with her. I felt he was showing me from this dream:

Proverbs 2:18-19:

“Entering her house leads to death;

it is the road to the grave.

The man who visits her is doomed.

He will never reach the paths of life”.

Later I confronted her and asked her if she saw her ex as a little boy that she felt she needed to take care of? She became very shocked and said “Yes!! How did you know this! It took me a whole year to figure this out in very expensive counseling.” Even the room with the bed made perfect sense to her. I told her I saw this in a dream. Since the second part of the dream was true, I now knew the first part would also be true: That Jesus was warning me about her, and wanting me to stop and be with him.

I backed off from her, but didn’t break off the relationship fully and completely. She eventually deceived me, and I sustained Great financial loss and damage by her.

We HURT Jesus so much if we choose the life of sexually immorality, and probably risk eternal damnation. He wants to protect us. We need to keep this in mind if we ever feel temped…
