Leslie the Bible is truth and yes satan will want you to say that nightmares are an illusion. Then if nightmares are an illusion then why bother pray to God about fiction. So if you dont then satan has a free reign of your life even in dreams when u r to rest. I pray myself even when I get sinful dreams coz I know satan has power to influence us using dreams. I pray the Lord teaches me righteousness in dreams. Jesus said that you dont have coz u dont ask. So if u dont ask that satan be stoped from tormentng you which he enjoys then you will suffer, dont ever think satan feels sorry for us. Leslie pray pray and pray again after you have finnished pray again. Remember all the Glory of triumph belongs to God. Bless you my sister we wrestle not flesh and bood but evil in the heavenly realm.
