Fever in a dream
Biblical meaning from Hearing God's Voice in Dreams by Apostle Nicholas V. Mbanjwa
Also: High temperature, Body heat, Burning up, Feverish
What it means
The work of the curse; the fruit of sin; the result of the fallen nature.
An attack upon the body.
He stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her. The fever was addressed as something to be rebuked rather than merely endured.
✦ When it is positive
- A fever rebuked and leaving, representing authority exercised over infirmity
⚠ When it is a warning
- Infirmity of the flesh
- Spiritual despondency
How to tell the difference
Note whether the fever is the dreamer's own or another's, and whether anyone stands over it. A fever rebuked within a dream points to authority; a fever left unaddressed points to something needing prayer.
