Wolves in Sheep’s Clothing: A Prophetic Warning

The wolf was super close to my face and body, sniffing and growling. I felt as if he was going to attack me any second.

About 3 a.m. on January 5, 2026, I was awakened from a startling dream about a masked figure. I knew right away that this was a message for the Body of Christ and a prophetic word for this season—for anyone with ears to hear.

The Dream

I was with a friend and her husband, and we were at an event. I had an app on my phone that rang when someone showed up at my home. I could hear them but not see them. It was similar to a Ring doorbell. But with this app, it seems I could see inside the home as well.

So someone called through this app, and I picked up the phone. It was a man’s voice. It seems like he was trying to convince me to come home, but he sounded a bit off, as if he was taunting me in some sort of way. He did let me know that he was interested in me.

I couldn’t see him physically, but through the app, I somehow knew the area where he was in my home. He was in a huge reception-like area that opened to my back balcony. It was covered but led right outside. And somehow I knew he was sitting on a couch in that area, which was a white sectional. The home was huge.

My friend’s husband—let’s call him David—asked if I wanted him to go check the man out before I talked to him (or agreed to anything he asked).

So we both went over to my home. We got to where the man was, but for some reason, he couldn’t see me. I sat on the opposite side of the sectional couch from where he was.

David, however, went right up to the man, and he was calling him out because we knew he had an ulterior motive. And then, somehow, David knew the man was wearing a fake mask over his real face, and all of a sudden, he pulled the mask down.

Initially, underneath the mask (he had on a mask that made him look totally human), it seemed like another man, but then a young striped tiger quickly fell from the man’s belly area as if he had had a C-section and birthed the tiger. As soon as the tiger fell out, it ran away, toward the front of the home. David, of course, very surprised, said “This thing …!” and also ran toward the front of the home. At that moment, I could clearly see that what we thought was a man was actually a gigantic white wolf, still sitting up in the same position on the couch.

During David’s encounter with ‘the man,’ the appearance of the tiger, and the man’s real identity being revealed, I had been in a bit of a shock, frozen in place, it seemed.

As I sat stunned, processing what was happening, the wolf ran after David. At that moment, I contemplated running outside, since it was close. But before I could make up my mind to move, the wolf was back. I knew he still couldn’t see me, but I quickly realized that he sensed my presence; conseqently, he instantly ran over to where I was.

I closed my eyes, sat really still, and said to myself, “Lord help me.” The wolf was super close to my face and body, sniffing and growling. I felt as if he was going to attack me any second. I was concerned that I could be mauled, but I was also surprisingly calm. I remained still and kept my eyes closed and trusted God to hear my prayer and save me.

After what seemed like forever in this position, I slowly awakened out of my dream.

The Interpretation

We are living in unsettling times, worldwide. What looks like one thing could actually be another, things that look ‘normal’ on the surface can turn out to be wildly abnormal, and bold positive promises may really be disguises for manipulation toward ulterior motives—just like the wolf in this dream.

I believe God is warning us that in this season, there will be “wolves in sheep’s clothing,” perhaps more so than normal, and that we should be watchful for the same.

This could play out in our personal lives, business transactions, politics, the media, etc. I recently took an AI Journalism course and found out that there are over 400 fake online news media sites that look and feel real. They are in effect like wolves, preying on curious, innocent people who click—and believe the half-truths, and the downright lies. 

“Her princes in her midst are like wolves tearing the prey, shedding blood, destroying lives to get dishonest gain.” —Ezekiel 22:27 ESV

YOU NEED DISCERNMENT

In 2026, the wolves will come, so how can you prepare? Pray for spiritual discernment. Pray to recognize the “princes in your midst.” Ezekiel 22:27 was referring to leaders within Israel, acting like wolves among their own people. Usually, the wolves are someone who can easily blend into your world, thus, their ability to fool many.

During this season, tune your spirit to God’s channel, so He can reveal who you are dealing with: an honest person who’s full of truth, with good intentions, or a “wolf” who masks their true identity by appearing to be something they’re not. You need to be able to ascertain whether the ‘white clothing’ they’re wearing, like the wolf in my dream, is an attempt to seem pure and innocent, although inwardly, they are full of darkness.

You’ve likely heard the phrase, “If it doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t.” We are body, soul, and spirit, which can sense when “something is not right.”

You know that popular saying, “Something told me not to do that,” that you think about once something negative happened because you didn’t heed that inner voice? Well, I submit to you that that “something” is God’s Holy Spirit communicating with your spirit. Listen to Him. He will save you from challenges, pain, and heartache, and maybe even save your life.

Sometimes God uses others to steer you away from the wolf, as he used David in my dream.

If a friend or family member feels as if something is ‘off,’ be discerning and at least listen to them and see what God reveals.

I had no idea the ‘man’ was really a wolf wearing a mask. My antenna did alert me to the fact that something was amiss, but David was the one who initiated the investigation. Furthermore, he was brave enough to not only confront the wolf but also tear down his mask, thereby playing a major part in my rescue in the situation.

“BEWARE OF THE TIGER”

The tiger that sprung out of the wolf was orange with black stripes, like a Bengal tiger, considered one of the most dangerous tigers because of its size. When you research tigers in general, you will discover words such as “ferocious,” “aggressive,” and “cunning.”

The tiger had been inside the wolf. I believe all those adjectives mentioned above about tigers represented the wolf’s character.

Wolves in sheeps clothing can be rather destructive in our lives if they are not discerned and put in check. In my dream, the wolf could have literally killed me, had it not been for discernment and God’s protection.

Remember the tiger ran away as soon as it was released. Perhaps that represented God disarming the wolf of his ability to harm me. He still looked and sounded ferocious when he was in my face, but I had prayed, God heard, and the wolf was reduced to only noise.

YOU CAN BE HIDDEN

In my dream, although I had been sitting on the same couch as the wolf, watching things unfold, he never saw me. And later, when he was super close to my face, he didn’t even touch me. It was as if something had blinded him and also held him back from advancing further.

I was within biting range, yet remained untouched. I believe that represented the fact that God had hidden me from the wolf. 

“When you abide under the shadow of Shaddai, you are hidden  in the strength of God Most High. He’s the hope that holds me and the stronghold to shelter me, the only God for me, and my great confidence.” —Psalm 91:1-2 TPT

Just like the wolf was able to get close to me but not harm me in my dream, in real life, God can protect you and hide you also.

PARTING THOUGHTS

Heads up: Wolves in sheep’s clothing are on the horizon.

Just make sure your discernment antenna is up, listening for guidance from God’s Holy Spirit, and that you are obedient.

 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.” —Matthew 7:15 ESV

Selah.

Listen: Mountains & Hills

… many people were running into the forest, most with just the clothes on their backs …

A Dream, an Interpretation, and a Word

The Dream
Scene 1:

I was outside, very high up on a mountain with jagged edges. I could see other mountains all around me, some snow-capped. There were children playing around me, various races. They were running to and fro, chasing each other, and running  dangerously right up to the edge. It appeared as if they were running to the edge on purpose, pretending as if they were going to run off and fall, and then another kid running directly behind them would pull them back just in time. I was observing them and wondering why they were being so careless with their lives. They were laughing a lot and seemed to be having a lot of fun. They were not taking the danger seriously at all; in fact, it seemed as if they were being flippant about it.

Scene 2:

I was outside, this time on ground level. There was a hill nearby, maybe a couple hundred yards away. There were several people standing in various places on the hill. All of a sudden, it began to move as if someone were on the other side pushing it. The people began to run down the hill to get off it because it was moving. They were afraid. I began running as well with them. The only place to go was into a forest. The forest was not very thick, but many people were running into the forest, most with just the clothes on their backs, and some with a few items they had grabbed before running from wherever they came from. As we ran deeper and deeper into the forest, we ran across several areas where people had decided to just camp out where they could. I kept going until I got to an area that looked safe, a clearing of sorts. In this section, the forest floor seemed to be carpeted, with some soft material over the ground, with various pastel colors, going around trees as if perfect circles had been cut out for the trees. Several people were laying down and some were asleep. It was quiet and peaceful, and so I decided to stay there as well.

Scene 3:

I was some place inside with another female and a  guy I was dating. He seemed rather young. I was sitting across from the other two on a small couch. The scenery appeared to be a sitting area inside the lobby of a building. I believe other people were milling about around us, but not closely. Apparently, I had, had a  serious  argument with my boyfriend. He and I, as well as the other lady, had some sort of short swords in our hands. Both of them held the sword out in the center toward me. Somehow there was an agreement that if I also touched my sword in the middle with theirs, that he and I would be finished and could kill each other or fight to the death. I don’t believe I wanted to, but I think I felt forced to also put my sword out and touch his. And everyone knew what that meant. However, the next minute our swords were down, and he began walking toward me, but not in a threatening way. He came closer and closer so that his face was very close to my face, and our lips were almost touching. I stood very still and didn’t say a word. Then he puckered his lips to brush mine briefly, and I hesitated slightly but also followed suit. So, then we were OK and were no longer going to fight or kill each other.

The Symbolic Interpretation of This Dream
  1. We are ‘playing dangerously’ with the things of God. To choose Him is to choose eternal life, but not to choose Him is to choose  ultimate and final death. People are laughing at this concept, ignoring its truth, and don’t realize how dangerously close they are too losing their life, for all eternity—when they could actually save it.
  2. God gives us warnings in life. If we heed the warnings, we will arrive at a safe place in Him. Although chaos will occur around us in the world, we will have peace.
  3. There will come a time when others, including people you are close to, will be at great odds with you about God, maybe even to the point of threats against you. However, if you  remain steadfast in the ways of God, even in the midst of such turmoil, all shall be well.
A Word
Listen to what the Spirit of the Lord has spoken:

Naked you are before me. I see all. I hear your thoughts before they become words. There is no rock on earth I cannot see. No sea who’s depth I do not know. No bird flies or eats without my knowledge. Do you recognize who I am? I am your loving God—with an outstretched hand before you. Will you choose my eternal love? Or will you wait and test my wrath?
