Broken Down Car in a dream

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

Also: Car broke down, Broken-down vehicle, Car that would not start, Stalled car

What it means

Opposition to one's destination that lies within the dreamer's own means or control; ineffective systems for reaching a calling; an unreliable means of getting where God wants them; an outdated way of travelling.

Stalled progress; a need to change the means of getting to one's calling.

I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel. What has ceased to function cannot carry what it was made to carry.

✦ When it is positive

  • A call to revise one's current ministry or place of submission, and to ask honestly whether it can take the dreamer where God wants them

⚠ When it is a warning

  • A means of progress that has failed
  • Being stranded through outdated methods

How to tell the difference

WHOSE CAR IT IS DECIDES THE READING. If the dreamer is a PASSENGER, this warns that the ministry carrying them is outdated for their calling and cannot bring them where God would have them. If it is THEIR OWN car, the means they are using are outdated or inefficient, and new means may be needed.

Scripture

I am forgotten from their hearts like a dead man. I am like broken pottery.
