Nails are strong spiritual tools (like brooms). When you see iron nails in your dream, you have to pay close attention to detail, as your dream could uncover deep things you wouldn’t understand with your regular reasoning.
Growing up in an evil town, I had the privilege to witness what witch doctors and an average evil person could do firsthand. Some things you ignore or don’t take cognizance of can be used to plant evil in your life and frustrate you.
You can harmlessly hug or shake someone and start having pains all over your body as time progresses, hear a persistent noise in your head, have an illness that can’t be diagnosed, feel like things are moving around your body, or experience certain mishaps.
Alternatively, the dream could also be a great place to deposit stuff in your body or life, especially when your spiritual life is weakened. However, not everything is demon-related. Your dream could be shedding light on your emotions or other aspects of your life, and we will interpret it all.
Biblical meaning of iron nails in a dream
Protecting your boundaries
Lacking a solid self-will and the power to dictate how certain things happen around you can be frustrating, leading to passive aggression.
Your dream reveals that you lack boundaries and can easily be pushed around either because you have low self-esteem or were not taught how to set healthy boundaries—this will lead to people treating you like trash—depriving you of peace.
Proverb 18:17 “The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him.”
To regain your confidence and make people value you as you should, you need to begin the journey of setting boundaries by starting with a few and then progressing to as many healthy boundaries as possible.
Foundation
Seinng iron nails scattered on the floor in your dream reveals you have a faulty foundation that will keep trying to fight against your progress in life and your spiritual growth—to frustrate you and abort your destiny.
You might have a mother who trained you without a father, a troublesome father, or a mother who had a poor relationship with their parents and it is your turn now, a never-do-well syndrome in the life of your parents that made them remain average, a poor career choice, a struggle for the fruit of the womb, etc.
Most people battle foundational problems but never know. If you observe your parents or parents before them and you see certain negative patterns repeating themselves in your life, then you are battling foundation.
1Cor 3:11 For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ.
Pray these prayers:
- Father, have mercy on me
- I set myself free from all bloodline shackles.
- Jesus, you are my foundation; I break myself free from every covenant with any other evil foundation.
After these prayers, magic won’t just happen. You need to screen your life and make sure you are not behaving in the same way as your parents before you experience total deliverance.
If your parents were quarrelsome, procrastinated a lot, never took risks, had a weekend hypocritical spiritual life, and lived their lives without seeking the will of God—you have to start doing the direct opposite so God’s mercy could find you.
Spiritual fortification
Seeing iron nails in your dream reveals your spiritual life is not well attended to. You need to piece your spiritual logs together: your prayer life, studying regularly, fellowshipping with God, and meditating to hear from him.
Fortifying your spiritual life prepares you for the challenges of life—giving you promotions of avoidable problems and strength to forbearance in challenges aimed at strengthening your faith.
Be a problem solver
God has endowed you with wisdom, foresight, and understanding to solve problems in your workplace, family, and anywhere you find yourself. This problem-solving gift will attract divine and human favor when you begin to put it to use.
A good problem solver doesn’t have tunnel vision but has a vast knowledge of things that will always come in handy in resolving issues. Spread your tentacles when it comes to knowledge; read as far as you can; interact with people when you can, and you will marvel at the fruits of this simple transformation.
Sickness
Dreaming about iron nails represents an unnatural underlying sickness in your body. You may have noticed consistent infection, strange sudden sickness, or recurring illness of any kind—caused by witchcraft manipulations.
Witches are the least powerful when it comes to spiritual wickedness; however, they are persistent and don’t care about what it will cost them to keep afflicting you.
Breaking free will require at least two days of dry fasting and prayers. Then be sure to stop making negative confessions in your life. Always proclaim health, healing, prosperity, and deliverance.
Unyielding faith
Seeing iron nails in the dream represents complete belief and standing in God. Do not place your hopes on promises from men or on you men of God, but on the direct source, which is God.
God wants to do great things in your life and manifest his glory, but he wants to see the seed of faith germinating in you. Those things you want and need by the will of God will manifest when you exercise faith.
Biblical meaning of stepping on iron nails in a dream
Stepping on iron nails reveals you are in a problem (marriage, relationship, wrong career, setup, etc.) caused by ignorance or ignoring signs and warnings from God. Once you acknowledge your error, God will lift the challenges in your life.
Biblical meaning of swallowing iron nails in a dream
Swallowing iron nails in the dream reveals that there are evil deposits in your body (deposited spiritually) that will cause pain, animalistic behavior, and constant feelings of frustration, depression, and rejection.
Meaning of buying iron nails in a dream
Buying iron nails in the dream reveals endurance and perseverance through your life’s journey. You will encounter lots of broken or downtrodden people and events that may want to make you quit, but keep pushing.
Dream of an iron nail coming out of the body
This dream reveals deliverance. It is a testament that you are free from satanic deposits. Most people have encountered this dream after lengthy prayers, increased spiritual activities, or encountering the infinite mercy of God.
Summing up
The biblical meaning of iron nails in a dream reveals that the dreamer lacks faith and spiritual fortification, which is making evil forces deposit sickness into their body. It also shows the presence of foundational patterns—hampering prosperity and happiness.
