Baptismal Water in a dream

Biblical meaning from Hearing God's Voice in Dreams by Apostle Nicholas V. Mbanjwa

Also: Baptism water, Immersion water, Being baptised, Baptismal pool

What it means

A need to die to the old self.

An opportunity for newness; newness of life on the other side of a burial.

Baptism is a burial before it is a rising. The water is not a washing of dirt from the flesh but the answer of a good conscience toward God.

✦ When it is positive

Death of the old self and life out of death
Public identification with Christ
A clean beginning

⚠ When it is a warning

Refusing the water
Baptism sought as ritual without the death it signifies

How to tell the difference

Distinguish baptismal water, which concerns DEATH AND NEWNESS, from ordinary washing, which concerns cleansing, and from crossing water, which concerns transition. Note who performs the baptism and whether the dreamer comes up out of the water.
