The main thing we DO NOT DO is ignore a prophetic dream. I knew of three dreamers who had dreams about the same church. One dreamer saw a gigantic snake filling the stairs of the church and stretching its head out the front door. Another dreamer saw the same church from the platform and everything looked normal, but from the back of the auditorium there were snakes under the pews. The third dreamer saw the worship leader seducing a woman on a bed in the balcony.
Snakes represent potential for evil or deception in the flesh.
The snake was headed out the door like it had already accomplished its mission. The fact that it spanned the top story as well as the first floor spoke of its effect on the entire church, leadership and members. The second dream indicated that the infiltration was not obvious, rather it was behind the scenes. Eventually, the effects of the attack surfaced. Adultery was exposed in several homes and adulterous seed was sown to trouble more homes in the future.
