I had a seemingly meaningless dream a few days ago: My husband wanted to get a cake to celebrate his dad's birthday. The reason that is strange is because his dad has passed away. Someone in the dream said, 'that's silly, your dad's not even here anymore', to which I replied, 'that's ok, if he wants to celebrate his dad's birthday with a cake, we'll do that.' I didn't think much about the dream, but then I got 3 more dreams, all about food, which is not normal for me (I'll post those on the dream forum). It made me wonder if that first dream had meant anything. Then, my mom sent me a message. She said: Your dad had a dream - in his dream, you came to him and said "123 days", and you said it twice, and that was the end of his dream. Curious, he calculated that - and it comes to his birthday.
2 fathers, one dead, one living, both related to birthdays? I have considered God is telling my dad this will be his last birthday - he will be turning 70. And when I looked up the number 123 in the Strong's concordance it was the number of exiles from Bethlehem who returned after 70 years of captivity...we are exiles in this world??

I'm not that good at interpretation, but I like to talk the dream out loud and see if there's any metaphor or something like that when I hash it out. With your dreams, which certainly seem prophetic, I noticed that you have an event to celebrate but there's really no point (the person is gone). So in that sense it is a pointless celebration or maybe could refer to a dead party b/c the person is dead. I don't mean to be disrespectful, just some food for thought. Like maybe, celebrations are coming to an end for people in the world. I know one of the prophets refers to people trying to drink wine and party but the wine is bitter and they can't really celebrate, get drunk, or party like they want to. Or maybe if it's believers, our celebration of Christ's return seems pointless to others because they don't see the benefit of following Him in the here and now.
