BIBLICAL MEANINGS OF COLORS

 
3221075505I place a lot of value on the meaning of colors.  I am a dancer, banner maker and flag maker.  A big part of the message and warfare is in the colors used.  When I painted my chiropractic office on the inside I asked the Lord for just the right colors and this is what I felt He said:  Yellow and orange.  I am not naturally attracted to these two colors so....I got paint samples of all different colors and splattered them all over the office to see what looked the best.  It was yellow and orange .  Why yellow?  So many people are depressed.  It is no mistake that smiley faces are made with yellow and the sun is yellow - warmth, comfort, joy, SON light!!!  And the orange...God asked me what I wanted most for my patients.... hmmm, Miracles.  Yeah, miracles.  To me, orange is the color of the supernatural manifestation of miracles.  In the list below it notes Praise; Spiritual Warfare/Intercession; Courage; Boldness - all components of miracles!  So I got the paint.  stress_reliefThe first layer was smiley face YELLOW.  With some red arches we had McDonalds.  It was so bright when you walked in my office it hurt your eyes.  Even the gaudy DHL uniform delivery guys made fun of me and they wear Bright Yellow.  My husband was giving me the "what were you thinking" look.  Just wait guys!!!  I strongly felt the Lord told me these colors and I am sticking with it   So, the next layer with a sponge roller was creamsicle orange.  Why that color?  I love creamsicles and they always make me smile and think of the innocent days of childhood.  It is amazing how these two colors blended together yet maintained their own identities. 
 
The first thing people normally say when walking in my office is how peaceful they feel.  I have trouble getting people to leave because they just don't want to leave that feeling.  And there have already been countless miracles.  Is it just the paint?  Just the color?  No, but they do set the atmosphere.
 
So, below is the list of colors.  My next task is to pick out the colors of my kitchen, our bedroom and the outside of the office.

Thank you for providing this information.  I had it at one time, and a lot of my study materials were lost in all the moving.  I too am a Praise Dancer and needed this information for teaching for our youth.. May the Lord continue to bless you and pour into and out of you daily.
