Does God Still Speak In Dreams?

Matthew 1 verse 20 "But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost."
Joseph listened to the angel of the Lord, believed his dream was from God, and obeyed the instructions. Many times throughout the Bible, in both the old and new testaments, God has spoken to his own in dreams, given instructions, and revealed His will. Does He still do the same today? I say yes.
Here are two examples from my personal experience.
Shortly after I was saved, my 10 year old son asked me, "Daddy, where does it say in the Bible that the devil fell from heaven?" I didn't know off hand and it was late so I told him I would look the scripture up in the morning. I went to sleep and began dreaming. In this dream, a large Bible was opened to the scripture Isaiah 14 verse 12. I awoke from my sleep (it was about 2 AM), turned on my bedside lamp, picked up my Bible from the table, and read the scripture. It reads "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down in the ground, which didst weaken the nations!" God showed me this in a dream!
The next example is about a friend of mine, Dorsey. I dreamed I went over to his house, and there were many people there. I knocked on the door, his wife came to the door, and I asked, "Where is Dorsey?" She pointed across the road, and there he was, dressed up in a pretty blue pin striped suit. He had a big grin on his face and was waving bye. I awoke from this dream (it was about 3 AM), and said, "Lord, you are about to take Dorsey home, aren't you?" The Lord replied, "Yes." I began to grieve for him and prayed for him and his family. About two weeks later, on a Sunday night, I called him and asked was he doing ok. He said yes and I told him I loved him and appreciated him. The following Wednesday, he dropped dead of a heart attack. I went over to his house, and there were many people there. He looked peaceful in his coffin, dressed in that pretty blue pin striped suit. God had revealed this to me in a dream!
I have had many more....Have you had experiences like these?
Psalms 1 verse 2 "But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night."

Too numerous to list...
When I was sick last June I saw the Holy Spitit take hold of me and hold me in HIS Almighty wings and hold me until I stopped coughing. I was told by the Holy Spirit to rest and don't worry for he had me in his grasp and everything will be alright.
When I was in the hospital, in July for a heart angigram I feared I would need surgury. I felt something take hold of me and I saw an angel holding me within his grasp and assuring me everything is in God's hands and it will be alright...
When I was out of work this past September I saw an angel appear to me and told me that Jesus was sending me back to work and soon...I got a call from DTS to return back to work 5 minutes later...
And recently I saw the Virgin Mother Mary while I was praying and she told me that she wanted all Americans to say the Holy Rosary and to pray for the end of Abortions throughout the world.
To bad I don't have time to list the visitations and dreams I have seen...Time limits...
But does God speak to us thru dreams & visions...YES!

Oh yes dream dream and dream on. Spiritual dreams definitly still go on today. That has not changed. It never will. God used dreams, and visions to speak to His people. Let Him use it in You if that is the way He is leading and it definitly seems that way.
