I did have a dream in which a person was speaking to me from the podium in a great hall and said that Jesus "was the great Tekton". When I woke up I looked up the word, it is Greek and means builder. To my memory I had no previous knowledge of this word prior to that dream. The dream meant a lot to me, but I don't want to share the rest on this site.

I believe if a dream is repeated twice then you should pay attention. And yes, I believe I have had meaningful dreams. Also, in Ecclesiastes it says that dreams come from much labor. Which is another experience of dreams that I have had.

I have had similar dream experiences, except I never saw any "demons". I could feel a presence and then I felt constrained and almost suffocating, it's really hard to explain. When I tried to call on the Lord I couldn't open my mouth. Nothing visible was physically holding my mouth shut , but I couldn't open my mouth. But every time, I just kept fighting to call on the Lord, and eventually my mouth would become free and I would say "Lord Jesus!" and what ever was there would leave, sometimes immediately, sometimes it took more rebuking in the name of the Lord.
