Dreams

I've got a few friends that dream dreams - not regular ones but head-scratchers. Sometimes they are scary, sometimes simply interesting. In some cases, the dreams seem very significant. Here is a rule of thumb about dreams taken right out of scripture.

If the dream is from God and you only dream it once, it is a warning or a special insight to something that 'might' happen.

If the dream is dreamed twice (and is from God), it is established by God. Why? Remember the rule that from the testimony of two or more a matter is established?

This is made clear from the dreamer himself, Joseph, who said this about Pharaoh's dream:
Gen 41:32
(32) And as to the dream being repeated to Pharaoh twice, the thing is settled because it is from God, and God is hastening to do it.
