BALANCING VISIONS AND DREAMS

The case where some random persons would stop you on the road to say they saw a vision concerning you.

I say clearly, ‘Do not give them audience at all’. Yes, because you don't need it.
Stop being a collector of visions! Or a dumping ground for so-called visions and dreams!!

How can you suddenly redirect your life because some stranger somewhere had a dream about you?

Now, let me tell you what visions are and I hope this helps. .
Visions are what they are - Sight. They are illuminations into the spirit realms to perceive happenings across time. This also means that not all visions are about the future. Some are about the past you had before coming into Christ. So there's the place of discernment. You are to discern to know if what was seen was a revelation from God.

And because the world is in darkness, not everyone sees this vision or knows what they ought to know. BUT for the child of God, you're not in darkness. You have the light of life. And the visions about you are glorious.

The bible says we are not children of the night but of the day (1Thess.5:5). We are children of light and WE DO NO LACK VISIONS. We have sight and can see by ourselves .

It's only those in darkness that cannot see and need someone to see 'visions' for them.
But that doesn't apply to you. The person in a valley cannot have a better grasp of the person on the mountain top. You're the one on the mountain top (mount Zion) and you're the one to be seeing everything and everyone better. You do not lack sight so you don't lack vision. You are not in darkness and so you do no lack vision. Don't be a dumping ground for visions.

Listen to this, whatever vision anyone sees about you MUST be a confirmation  of what you already know. Yes, because if he has sight to see, you also can see too. And if he's saying something different from what you already saw or knew from God's word, you can refute it and discard it right away. That's why the bible says,the spiritual man can judge all things. Judge that vision or dream if it is true and inline with the truth of God's word for a person whose life is hid in God.  And stop any so-called vision that is not consistent with the truth about a child of God. Stop living in fear because of what someone said they saw. That's why I advise that you don't even allow them to tell you in the first place. Don't be interested. 

Moreover, there's a BIG problem if our definition of Christianity and power becomes how well a man can see visions for you.
Please read this again: ‘.... in the last days I'll pour out my spirit upon all flesh and my sons and daughters will see visions’.
Who are those who’ll see visions?  Sons and daughter. Why? Because they're in the light and not in darkness.

So next time that man (who is probably not born again) stops you on the road to tell you the vision he saw about you, when he's done call him back and tell him the vision you saw about him too: how that he needs to come out of darkness and step into the marvellous light that's in Christ Jesus.
However, if it's someone that God had placed over you as a spiritual guide, your prophet or your pastor, then that's as different case. You can either pray about it and allow the Spirit to guide you. But this does not mean you should not still judge it. Because we have heard cases where a pastor said God told him I ask a particular sister to break up her relationship of six years because the brother was not her husband. Even though the brother didn't treat her badly. And till today the sister is not married. And she's praying about looking for husband.
Visions and dreams are good BUT they must be consistent with the truth of God's word. Any vision that does not aligns with the word of God is NOT from God. And no matter who saw it, it doesn't have any power to come to pass if you don't believe it. Don't fall for them cheaply without discerning. Remember,not all visions are projections into the future. So be at alert. It is safer to live your faith life basically from God's word. And let it become the ground through which your understanding of everything else lies. We are children of light and we walk in the light by the Spirit. This is where revelations flow for us.
Shalom!
