Abuse is the physical maltreatment of someone or something.

Positive:  Dreaming of abuse could represent God as our defender.

Negative: In a dream, abuse could represent that God is calling you to repent of past sins. It could also represent that one has a victim mentality. It could indicate that you may be giving someone too much power in your waking life.
