Prophetic Warnings and Dreams: When God Speaks in the Night
There’s a mysterious hush that falls over the soul at night a sacred silence where God often chooses to whisper His warnings, His insights, and His truth. While many toss and turn or disregard their dreams as the result of a heavy meal or busy day, others know the weight some dreams carry. They are not ordinary. They’re spiritual. They linger. They demand attention.
Some dreams are symbolic, others surreal, and then there are the unforgettable ones prophetic dreams. These are not merely reflections of your subconscious. They are divine downloads from God Himself, packed with warnings, revelations, and personal insight. They leave a residue of emotion, clarity, or even holy fear that doesn’t fade after you wake. These dreams often feel more real than the world we wake up to.
Not All Dreams Are the Same
It’s important to understand that not all dreams come from the same source, nor do they serve the same purpose. Some say we dream of alternate realities, past lives, or versions of ourselves that exist in parallel timelines. Sometimes we’re aware that we’re dreaming lucid dreaming where we can navigate or question the reality we're in. These theories have some resonance in metaphysical or even psychological spaces.
But prophetic dreams are different.
They come uninvited, and they stick. They don’t entertain; they awaken. You may dream something and forget it by noon. But prophetic dreams? You remember them years later vividly. You remember the colors, the words, the feeling. They are God’s way of preparing us, warning us, or calling us to deeper discernment.
My Personal Journey With Prophetic Dreams
From a young age, I’ve had dreams that made me question the veil between this world and the next. I’ve always been a vivid dreamer, but I really became aware of the spiritual dimension of dreams when I was 19. One night, I dreamt four out of five lottery numbers. I didn’t win and I wasn’t meant to. That dream was never about money. It was about awakening. God was showing me the richness that lived inside me—the gift of spiritual perception.
I’ve often had dreams of people praying over me or finding myself in churches symbols of intercession and divine covering. Over time, I noticed something: I could predict when someone was going to pass away, usually five days in advance. As I got older, the warning came closer to the day—almost like a spiritual countdown.
I’ve also had visitations in dreams. Many will quickly dismiss this, warning of familiars, deceptive spirits posing as loved ones. I agree this is real. I’ve experienced it. I’ve seen them wear faces that weren’t theirs. But I also know the difference between a cold mimic and the warm emotional contact that only a real soul can offer. During the first year after my father passed, I often dreamt of him interceding on behalf of me and my children during many of the witchcraft attacks. He revealed things to me in real time, and I know this was not just a fragment of past subconscious imagery. It wasn’t until I did a novena of prayers for him and asked for him to be remembered in several Masses that his appearances in my dreams began to stop. In fact, if I dream of him now, it doesn’t feel the same. It is as if those characters are not truly him, and the connection doesn’t feel the same as it did in the years following his death before I did the novena. I’d like to think he is finally resting. The Caribbean blood that runs through me comes with centuries of spiritual memory. I grew up hearing stories just like mine it was normal in my family to know before it happened, to sense things unseen.
Dream Characters and the NPC Theory
As I grew spiritually, fasting and committing to 3AM prayer, my dreams became sharper. I noticed a cast of characters showing up often. Some were helpful warning me not to eat in dreams (a spiritual attack often disguised as a meal). Others were mischievous tricksters who wouldn’t say things directly but hinted, tested, or provoked.
I dove deep into research and came across thinkers like Dr. Erik Goodwyn and Paul Tholey, who studied lucid dreaming and the consciousness of dream characters. What stood out to me was the question: are some of these characters aware? Are they a reflection of real spirits or constructs of our mind? I have always thought of them as sentient entities in their own right from other realms of consciousness.
Knowing what I now know about the Matrix, NPCs, and parasitic entities, I’ve begun to question: what if our dreams are revealing to us, before our waking mind understands (and being that many are asleep in this matrix); the real spiritual forces around us? What if the mischievous characters in our dreams mirror the same parasitic NPCs we interact with daily those whose glances, gestures, and energy feel off? It is was to some degree science expresses they are constructs of encounters from our waking reality, but I like to delve further and say these have agency in the dream realm just as much as they would in our wake state.
There are helpful dream figures too some I believe are rooting for us and part of the kingdom of God, who stop you, protect you, or show you the way in dreams. Then there are the dark ones. Marine spirits, demonic tempters, and seducing entities who try to bind you with soul ties through food, sex, or false contracts, whether they are sent via witchcraft or not.
I’ve dreamt of returning to past homes or jobs in strange circumstances, clear indicators of witchcraft or spiritual backwardness being sent at me and my children, whom have occasionally all had very similar dreams on the very same night or of the same nature. I’ve dreamt of contracts being handed to me to sign by familiar faces, soul traps I unfortunately entered into with my knowledge or full conscious awareness. Or witches trying to make me light candles in dreams and participate in rituals meant to destroy me. These were never random. They were spiritual battles being shown to me in advance.
Why God Allows Prophetic Dreams
God doesn’t show us these things to paralyze us with fear. When I was younger, I remembered waking up afraid, worried about would happen as if it were set iin stone. Now, I wake up alert. I see it as grace, the divine intelligence of Heaven trying to prepare me for what is ahead. Prophetic dreams are God’s way of saying:
"Daughter, put on your armor. Fast. Pray. Rebuke. I’ve shown you so you can win."
This is the weapon many of God’s people are gifted with, an internal GPS in the spirit realm. He doesn’t always speak through a burning bush. Sometimes He whispers through a dream. Sometimes He warns through a symbol. Sometimes He calls you to action through the subtle unfolding of a vision while you sleep.
Practical Steps for Interpreting Your Prophetic Dreams
Record them immediately. Keep a dream journal by your bed. The enemy tries to snatch clarity upon waking.
Discern the source. Was it God, your own soul, or an enemy spirit? The emotional residue often reveals the source.
Pray for interpretation. Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal what it means. Scripture will often confirm it.
Test the fruit. If the dream calls you into deeper faith, holiness, or preparedness, it’s likely from God.
Take action. Dreams that come from God demand a response. Prayer, fasting, declarations, or spiritual warfare. Any dreams of contracts, fornication, weddings, death or eating in dreams need to be rebuked immediately followed by fasting.
Final Thoughts
Dreams are a language of Heaven. Prophetic dreams are not just interesting, they are spiritual assignments. They are clues, maps, and warnings that help us navigate a spiritual battlefield dressed up like a modern world.
When God speaks in the night, don't just roll over and forget. Listen. Write. Pray. Act.
Some dreams are more than dreams. They’re divine intelligence and they may be the very thing that saves you in the days to come.
