Dreams From Satan
The Enemy's Night Strategy
The Bible also reveals that Satan uses dreams to deceive, intimidate, and attack believers. These dreams are not accidental, they are spiritual warfare.
Exposing the Enemy’s Night Strategies
Not every dream is demonic but some dreams absolutely originate from the enemy, and believers must know how to identify and resist them. Below are the primary biblical foundations for understanding dreams that come from Satan.
False Dreams Are Real
Zechariah 10:2
“The diviners… tell false dreams.”
Satan uses false dreams to mislead and confuse.
Satanic Dreams Bring Fear and Torment
Job 4:13–16
A terrifying night encounter that produced dread, not the nature of God.
The Enemy Sows While You Sleep
Matthew 13:25
“While men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares…” Satan plants fear, lust, confusion, and condemnation.
Night Terrors Are Spiritual Attacks
Psalm 91:5
“You will not fear the terror by night.”
God promises protection from demonic oppression.
