Let me say first off that I am not a prophet nor have I ever claimed to be. I, as many, have a prophetic enablement. As the book of Acts states, your young men will see visions and your old men will dream dreams. This includes all believers. If you are young or old... you could be having prophetic dreams.
My main gifting of the Spirit is the Word of Wisdom. The Word of Wisdom is a gifting that enables one to know things from the mind of God that cannot be known by natural means. This includes snapshots of the future and revelation from scripture that logic and reason usually does not perceive. I had a dream one night where I found myself in a cave out in a desert place. I stepped to the entrance of the cave and written across the sky with letters made of clouds was the word "REVELATION." The Lord was telling me that if I set myself apart and dedicate myself to His word, I will manifest the word of wisdom, which is the spiritual gift that enables you to know things that could not be known by natural means (like things in the future). So for the last 43 years I have been experiencing these dreams, visions of the night, and of course Word of Wisdom via prophecy.
Years later I had a dream in which a man walked into the center of an intersection. He turned to face me and held his arms out to his sides. Suddenly a large sword appeared out of nowhere and sliced him across his lower belly. There was no blood or pain... but the top half of the man fell backwards like a book opening, and I could see entrails displayed like in an anatomy book. The Lord told me He was going to teach me about the inner workings of the spirit of man. Since that time I have been consumed with the topic, researching topics such as the fruit of the spirit, the mechanics of belief, revelation knowledge, tongues, prophesying, and the role of compassion in ministering to the sick and intercession. The Lord will do nothing unless He reveals it to His prophets.
Some years ago, I had a dream in which I was standing in the middle of a street (again!). As I stood there, thousands of bees swarmed around my hands and one bee flew into my mouth and landed on my tongue! I puzzled over this dream for some time. I knew it had some significance for me. I eventually found that the word “bee” in Hebrew is very close to the Hebrew word for “word” or “words” (Debar/Deborah). Since my hands were covered by bees, I realized that my hands, by typing on a computer would be used to present the Word of God. With this dream, I have redoubled my efforts to present my teachings via both the Web and in print format.
