What does dreaming about fire mean in the Bible?

Fire carries a double weight in Scripture: it is how God shows up — the burning bush, the tongues of flame at Pentecost — and how He refines, proving faith like gold in a furnace. A fire dream may point to God's purifying work in you rather than destruction. Ask what He may be burning away, and what He is setting alight. In the SoulGuide Dream Guide, fire is filed under nature — one of 54 symbols in the guide — and is answered with 3 King James Version passages quoted in full: Exodus 3:2, Acts 2:3, 1 Peter 1:7. Each passage below carries a short note explaining why it applies to fire, so the entry can be read on its own without the rest of the guide.

“And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.”

“And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.”

“That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:”
