an important god dream

Every once in awhile God will lay things out in a dream really precisely so that we can learn what God is doing on the earth or in our lives right now. This is a dream that I (Karen) had I really believe that many others can learn from the truths in this dream.  Here is the dream.
 
 
The Dream
 
Last weekend I had a dream in which I was with a mature friend in a field, and we had a tarpaulin on the ground.  As we were about to leave, I asked if we should put it over the fence to air rather than leave it on the ground.  She said that we indeed should because otherwise, the snakes would gather underneath it, and that she had seen that happen before.
 
Recognizing her wisdom and experience, I moved to do precisely that and spotted snakes lying in the grass just like she had said.  As I looked up, I saw an enormous snake coming towards me.  This was not an ordinary snake.  Its head and body were towering above me, and it was huge.
 
I knew that if I were to try and run it would instantly eat me, but I also knew that doing nothing was not a viable option either.
 
Immediately I started to pray in tongues.  The snake did not stop.  I then started to command it to go in the name of Jesus, and we watched in amazement as the snake was ‘blown’ back by the power that was in His name.  I continued to repeat this because I was acutely aware that the moment that I stopped doing so the snake would try to attack again.  Yet again I commanded it to go in Jesus’ name, and it vanished.
 
We watched, astounded at both the snake being ‘blown’ back and the fact that it was totally gone through praying in this manner.

I believe that one thing that the dream is showing is a strategy on how to fight the enemy.  Praying in tongues unites us with God and strengthens us to walk in His power.  Then at the right time commanding the enemy to go will push it back.  But, do not give up until you know that the attack is gone for good.  Continue to use the authority that is given to us in the name of Jesus until not only the immediate threat, but the source of that threat is removed entirely.
