Have you ever gotten really close to a dog or cat (or a person) and sensed they wanted to hurt you? It’s something you feel. I’ve experienced this many times. But this time it happened in a dream.
This morning, I dreamt I was in a room with some people, and the house-cat was about 1 foot in front of my face — and I sensed this feeling that the cat was vicious inside. It also had lost most of its hair on its mouth, which made it even look creepy.
I started praying specifically for whoever had cursed it in my prayer language (tongues — believing in my heart that I was praying only for this one thing. And then we know the problem is dealt with when the prayer language stops. See: I’ve finally shared much of what I know about and what can be done through the TREMENDOUS and mostly misunderstood and underused gift of tongues). This is something I almost always do when this happens, but usually not with the animal on my lap. This also always (in my experience) works to break off whatever is causing them to have nightmares, where they shake and whimper during sleep.
So I was praying out loud (apparently these other people in the room were also Christians; otherwise, I usually don’t pray in tongues in front of people) with the cat on my lap when I heard my prayer language get real intense. I asked the others if they would help pray (because the more people that pray for a specific thing in tongues the faster it gets dealt with).
Right after I asked them to help pray, the cat bit my finger, and I struggled to get it out of his mouth.
I don’t remember the end of this dream. But when wide awake, I did actually pray for whoever was cursing this cat, and I really did get a lot of prayer language, between 5 and 10 minutes.
So I then knew this wasn’t just an information dream as to how something works.
It’s also possible that this cat represented a person who was about to bite me, so to speak. And by praying what I did today this stopped this from happening. But the person who was going to do whatever was tremendously demon driven, cursed by another (or others) to be so mean. Praying for whoever was cursing him freed him.
The main thing is to pay attention to what the Holy Spirit is telling us — the Comforter Who will lead us into all trtuth, the Bible says — if we’re tuned in.
And we shouldn’t neglect our spiritual gifts, especially praying in tongues.
And when many of us are walking in the Spirit, ONE can happen!

I think the animals want to hurt you BECAUSE you get really close to them. It’s a natural defense.
