The Weapons Under Your Pillow

Remember the Disney Pixar movie Monsters, Inc., which introduced a hidden world of monsters that generated energy by scaring human children, even though the movie was a comedy? Kids were toxic to these monsters’ plans for world bedtime domination. As adults, we have overcome our fear of monsters in our closets. Or have we? Indeed, entities are hiding just out of sight—not in your closet, but in the wings of your life.

If you are God’s child, His enemies are your enemies, and they lie in wait for you to open the door to fear. I’ve noticed three common “monsters” that want to intimidate people of faith, and they start growling at nighttime in an attempt to steal our peace, our sleep and our dreams. They are monitoring spirits, some of them are familiar spirits, and all want you to dress yourself in garments of fear, worry and other devastating outfits.

Must you fall victim to these monsters, or is there something you can do? I believe that if you’re brave enough to open the closet door and walk straight into the monster factory, you’ll find that you are not afraid of them, but they are actually afraid of you! Your faith is toxic to them. You can dismiss the spirits tracking your steps each day to steal your future, one peaceful night’s sleep at a time. Freedom awaits you through prayer that takes authority over these interfering enemies, in Jesus’ name!

A powerful arsenal is at your disposal each and every night. Slip your hand under your pillow and take advantage of the weapons waiting for you there. These weapons include your dreams, your prayers and your rest. Your dreams especially are your direct pipeline to heaven’s wisdom. That’s why it is so important to get to sleep and have some! Throughout the Bible, God used dreams to communicate with people. What He did for those in Scripture, He will do for you. You just have to be in a relationship with Him to hear His voice. There are waking dreams that call for action, encouraging dreams, warning dreams that protect you or your loved ones, and directional dreams. If God gives you a dream, He’ll give you the grace to pray it forth. Between your dreams from God, your prayer and your rest, you and God can handle any monster that comes your way!
