I once dreamed that a demon appeared before me, and as I it look at me I had a sharp feeling at the center of my stomach from inside. My body became numb and I was mute. I then was able to whisper. And as soon as I whispered "God..." I was able to talk again. The demon tried to scare me, but then I yelled "You can do anything to me! I'm protected" and it screamed with a high pitch, then vanished. What does this represent? And could anybody tell me if there's a reason why in every nightmare the I feel the same sharp pain?

Maybe it is only a dream.I always dream about ghost or demon but nothing bad happen.You should let the dream after three days because i heard that if someone dream something bad,dont tell anyone for opinion because if someone try to definition your dream,maybe it will become true.I wish not.Have a nice day.

Yes this may happened when you place your hand on your heart or near heart that is a psychological pressure on the heart and mind.Dreams are directly linked to mind so it thinks you are in danger. Your believe in God makes you to call god at time of trouble.I also experience of this sort many times.

Yes, God helps me when I am in a tight situation. I call for him when I'm in a serious trouble though, not one of those childish ones where you do something and try to avoid punishment.

To see demons in your dream, represents ignorance, negativity, distress or your shadow self. It also forewarns of overindulgence and letting lust give way to your better judgment. To see God in your dream, signifies your spirituality and expression of your feelings about divinity. God also symbolizes an untouchable, unreachable, and unattainable notion of perfection. Thus such a dream may highlight your struggles and attempts with trying to be perfect.

Yes, that's kind of true. I also try to be perfect in my relationship with my girlfriend. And end up screwing up a bit but in the end without being perfect I'm loved.

Does anybody know what this dream means? hello my fellow brother in the Lord, it appears that you were being tried by the devil. You did the right thing to call on the name of God. Some people might call on Jesus or Jehovah. All of which mean the same thing, to the higher power you were calling for help. Then God came to your rescue so the demon had to flee. I'm not sure why you felt the sharp pain in your dream...... but if it should begin happening in your real life I think it's definitely something that you could go and have checked out by a doctor. Take care and pray and ask God to keep you covered by the blood of Jesus. Start singing about the blood of Jesus and the enemy will flee every time. God bless you.

Thank you! But I'm a little worried if the pain were to come in reality. I'm trying to be healthy as I become more older and be able to run and walk perfectly at the age of 50+.

Dream about a demon, devil or some kind of it, it's mean you will meet a huge temptations on your life, make you mute means those temptations or challenge is so huge you don't even know how to avoid it, I don't know what temptations exactly, but I think you know by yourself. But, then you success to make it vanish, it means you could overcome it anyway. About the pain you feel on your nightmare is just effect of your tension on your unconscious mind, tension of thinking how to avoid those temptations.

I'm not an expert about this kind of thing, but if you insist I could give some opinion about dream that could represent your deepest and unconscious mind. Just take it easy, dream not always represent the true life, but could indicate emotions inside of you that want to be revealed.

I once had the same dream. I saw a demon too but nothing happened. I just saw him standing. It was scary but yours was much more scarier. I think it's a warning.

I think that is a temptation, demon is inviting you to listen to him but then you know what to do, to ask help from your creator and to not listen to him so he vanished. Meaning of this dream there will be something that will happen to you or something that has happened to you that you are tempting to choose bad things over good but you choose not to do. Dreams are reflection of waking hours and it also can give sign to people.

Dream about devil, demon or some kind of it, it's means you will meet a temptation on your life. Make you mute and numb means that temptation is so big you could even know how to avoid it. I don't know what kind of temptation, may be you know it yourself. But after that you could extinguish it, it's a good sign means you could overcome those huge temptation near you with all your might, you'll find a way to quell it. About sharp pain you feel, I think it's just the side effect of tension on your unconscious mind, the tension because you hardly thinking the way to overcome that temptation. Just relax and clearly said in your mind that you could overcome it, nothing to be afraid of, may be after that your nightmare pain will gone.

i think you can interpret the same dream on a number of levels - spiritual as well as the more basic psychological. on the basic level it sounds like you're afraid of something but have somehow found the courage to face it. the sharp pain could be something particular to you or it could actually be a physical problem. i think only you can decide how to interpret the dream on a spiritual level.

All I can say is just pray before you sleep. Ask God for your safety the whole night. The nest thing happen in your dream is you remember to whisper God. Demon can attack people in many form like your mind.

Yes I know that, and I'm kind of dumb to not pray at times. But any demon that has stood before me (in real life, it happened once to me) it couldn't do anything, I yelled at it "Get out!!" and it would quickly go, because I knew God is on my side. And even in dreams I know that too, whenever any danger is in my dream I would be confident that it'll go away.

maybe it will come to you in future. dreams always tell the truth..maybe the demon is your anger or pain and the god is your heart..inside your heart there is place with pure instinc who can lead you for the rigth thing.

I think that the demon can come in our dreams, like the spirits, i believe in the spirits because any years ago i dreamed a woman that i knew, and in the dreams she was dying. The day after i went to this woman and i knew that she was dyed the same night..... I read that when we sleep our mind is more close to the other dimention and could happen strange things. Maybe the dreams it was only your fear of evil and i think you are a very religious boy....
