How Sleep and Dreams Shift as You Ascend Into Higher Dimensions
As we grow closer to God and walk deeper in His Spirit, many aspects of our daily lives begin to shift. One of the most noticeable areas of change is in the realm of sleep and dreams. Dreams are not just the brain releasing random images; they are spiritual landscapes where God speaks, where timelines cross, and where prophetic revelation is released.
When you ascend into higher dimensions of awareness in Christ, your dreams can become more vivid, more symbolic, and more prophetic. You may encounter other versions of yourself, glimpses of different timelines, or even warnings from the Lord. At times, these experiences can feel so real that they linger long after you wake.
Dreams That Are Hard to Remember
Not everyone remembers their dreams clearly, and that is important to understand. My daughter and niece, for example, rarely remember their dreams unless the dream is extremely symbolic or prophetic. This is why we pray over it daily. We ask God to continue to open their minds so that they may recall what is revealed in the night.
But whether you remember or not, there is something very important you must do. If you wake without memory of your dream, you should immediately rebuke in prayer any covenant, agreement, or exchange that could have taken place without your awareness. This includes dreams of eating, drinking, or fornication, which in the spiritual realm can be a doorway to demonic contracts.
Remember that even if you cannot recall your dreams, the Lord still speaks and protects you. Faith and obedience are stronger than memory. Stay consistent in your prayer life, and over time your dream life will align more with the Spirit of God.
Spiritual Practices for Sleep and Dreams
Here are some practices to protect your sleep and strengthen your spiritual awareness at night:
Anoint your head with olive oil before you sleep, declaring that your mind is sealed in Christ.
Anoint your pillow with holy water and ask the Lord to sanctify the place where you rest.
Always pray before bed, covering yourself with the blood of Jesus.
As soon as you wake, give thanks to God and cancel any demonic dreams or covenants you may not recall.
If possible, pray during early morning watch hours. This not only strengthens your spirit but can also open the way for more prophetic dreams over time.
As one ascends in consciousness, vivid, lucid, and sometimes prophetic dreams become more frequent. In my own experiences, I often found myself flying, floating, or moving through streams of light. These moments felt like a detachment from old 3D limitations, a freedom that the mind rarely experiences in waking life.
In some dreams, I encountered ancestors, or what seemed to be higher aspects of myself. Yet these encounters require discernment. One cannot assume all entities are benevolent. Sometimes a familiar spirit can appear as a guide. The guidance we receive in dreams should feel fleeting and instructive, not necessarily a permanent attachment in my opinion, exceptions could exists.
I recall repeatedly dreaming of an older woman. At first, I was confused. The scenes I observed seemed to show her life unfolding in rapid sequences: her and children young, then her and her children as dismissive adults, then her with two elderly individuals that possibly were the same children but now they were all in the same age range. In other more jarring dreams, I saw my niece as an adult and pregnant. While people in the dream insisted I had said or done something to her, though in the same dream, I kept telling them I had no recollection of it, I even asked in the dream “On what timeline did that happen?” These dreams left me with a sense of interference from other timelines.
Some dreams carried lights, pure white and violet hues, that seemed to appear spontaneously and spread across the dream space. I felt these lights directly interacting with my crown chakra, signaling activation and energetic alignment. These moments felt safe, internal, and unmistakably connected to my own ascension.
Other dreams are completely unrelated to me and are as if I am receiving a prophetic message of things happening to people around the world.
Dreams as Prophetic Tools
As you ascend spiritually, your dreams shift into a prophetic tool. They become more than just visions at night. They serve as confirmations of God’s will, warnings about attacks of the enemy, and glimpses of the future. The enemy also tries to plant seeds during sleep, but the blood of Jesus has the final word. That is why consistent prayer and rebuking are so critical.
Prophetic dreams are one of the ways God speaks to us and helps us discern the hidden things that need our prayers. The Word shows us many examples of how God used dreams to warn, guide, and instruct His people. Joseph received dreams in Genesis that revealed his future and later interpreted Pharaoh’s dreams which saved nations from famine. Daniel was given dreams and visions that revealed mysteries only God could show. In Acts, Peter reminds us of God’s promise through the prophet Joel that in the last days His Spirit would be poured out and young and old would dream dreams and see visions. These are not random events but part of the Kingdom of God manifesting in our lives.
Dreams can be keys to what we must pray for. They often reveal things the natural mind cannot see. They may uncover dangers, hidden attacks, or the condition of a soul. They may bring prophetic warnings or glimpses of what God is doing in the Spirit. It is important to test them with the Word of God and the Holy Spirit, but when they are aligned, they become a guidepost for prayer and intercession.
We must be careful not to waste our energy on the wrong things. The enemy works hard to keep us distracted, tangled in lies, or drawn into his narratives so that we spend our spiritual strength in vain. Dreams should not be wasted on fear or confusion but turned into intercession. Intercessory prayer is powerful because it stands in the gap for those who cannot pray for themselves, for the sick, for children, for those suffering, and for souls who are disconnected from God yet still belong to Him. Jesus Himself prayed in John 17:9–10 saying, “I pray for them. I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours. All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And glory has come to me through them.” This shows us that the souls that are given to Him belong to God. The enemy wants to hold them in darkness and keep them bound to the lower dimensions of this world, but it is God’s will that those in the Body of Christ awaken, rise, and walk in the light of truth through Jesus.
Intercessory prayer covers those who are too weak to lift themselves up, and it can release heavenly intervention in moments of danger. You may never know if your prayer was the very nudge that saved a brother or sister from despair, suicide, or depression, or if it was the covering that protected a child from harm. Just as others have prayed for us and at times we have been delivered from situations we did not even realize, so must we return that energy of love through prayer for our brothers and sisters in Christ. This is the true work of intercession, fueled by dreams, aligned with the Spirit, and grounded in the Word of God.
Therefore as we awaken into the higher dimension of God’s Spirit, the dreams we receive are signs that we are moving beyond the distractions of the enemy and into the fullness of His light. We should rejoice, for to reach this place is evidence that our spirit has matured, that we are walking in 5D awakening, and that God is revealing to us deeper truths of our being.
