Tide in a dream

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

Also: High tide, Low tide, Ocean tide, Rising tide, Turning tide

What it means

Recurring or cyclical seasons in life, indicated by how many tides the dreamer saw.

Predictable cycles that periodically bring change, uncertainty or transition.

Unlike a flood, the tide always returns. It pictures what is seasonal and expected rather than what is sudden.

✦ When it is positive

A predictable cycle
A periodic change
Temporary uncertainty that will pass

⚠ When it is a warning

Uncertainty and disturbance
A tide that comes in faster than the dreamer can move

How to tell the difference

COUNT the tides if the dream shows more than one, as the number indicates the seasons in view. Note whether the tide is coming in or going out, and whether the dreamer is aware of it or caught by it.

Scripture

While the earth remains, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night will not cease.”
Genesis 8:22 (WEB)

For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven:
Ecclesiastes 3:1 (WEB)

Don’t you fear me?’ says the LORD; ‘Won’t you tremble at my presence, who have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it can’t pass it? Though its waves toss themselves, yet they can’t prevail. Though they roar, they still can’t pass over it.’
Jeremiah 5:22 (WEB)
