What does dreaming about flying mean in the Bible?
Freedom and rising above what weighs you down
In Scripture
Flying dreams usually carry release — rising over what has pressed you down. Scripture's version is grounded in God: taking "the wings of the dawn" only to find His hand still guiding, and soaring on eagles' wings by waiting on the Lord. It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.
Verses to read
Psalms 139:9 (KJV)
“If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;”
If I rise on the wings of the dawn — even there Your hand guides me
Galatians 5:1 (KJV)
“Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.”
It is for freedom that Christ has set us free
