It doesn't happen often, in fact only about twice, but it's cool when it does: Worship and prayer in my unconscious mind, while dreaming. This morning early I had a dream that was very vivid. A familiar place that I haven't been to in years, with people I knew. We were gathering for worship, but it was in a home and the expression of worship, crying out to the Lord, hearing the voice of His Spirit was awesome. There was some other guy leading songs of praise and a group of people sitting in a room in a circle worshiping Jesus. The worship leader said something, and I was so amped up I said, "Say that again." He did. It was really cool. People just kept coming in to worship.
Now a dream is a dream. We don't have much control over them, and there are plenty of things I've dreamed that I don't want to remember or would be embarrassed to write publicly. To me the best part is awaking from that dream and having a fluid movement of worship from the unconscious state to a conscious one. One moment I'm singing to the Lord in my dream, the next moment my lips are forming the words as I lay awake in my bed.
Just a cool experience. Unexpected moments/unconscious responses are a great barometer of what is happening inside. You can't predict when they're going to happen, but I try to take inventory every time it happens.
