Three Hundred and Eighteen in a dream

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

Also: 318

What it means

A small but consecrated force sufficient for total victory through God's power — the principle that God does not need numbers, only consecration.

Abraham deployed 318 trained men to rescue Lot from five kings (Genesis 14:14) — and prevailed completely.

✦ When it is positive

  • A small but trained and consecrated company achieving an outsized victory
  • God's power making up for what is lacking in numbers
  • Victory is determined by consecration, not size

How to tell the difference

Genesis 14:14 is the anchor. 318 trained men against five kings — the victory was entirely God's doing through a small consecrated force. In a dream, 318 is an assurance that the forces available to you, however small they seem, are sufficient for the victory God has purposed.

Scripture

When Abram heard that his relative was taken captive, he led out his three hundred eighteen trained men, born in his house, and pursued as far as Dan.
