Is it possible to have prophetic dreams?

Answer 1

Yes it actually is, though not in the sense many people think. Sometimes it's just snippets that you remember, or sometimes it is a large event that they remember how they felt, what was happening and where everything was. Typically you wouldn't realize it until it actually happened, because that's the point in which you would realize you've had a dream that came true.

I'll use me as an example.

I actually have dreams that come true. I sometimes recognize something in a dream I had. Exactly how it was, in the exact same place, everything the same. Now it has strengthened into, I can remember how I was feeling and everything sounds the same and I even remember peoples' faces, which is said to be impossible.

Another answer:

Another way of stating the above is that you might subconsciously pick up little things that when added together may be an indication of what may happen. You might remember some tiny thing and automatically figure out the most likely course of how it will go. While it could be remotely possible that God or other spirits might speak to you in your dreams and give you information, it is more likely just common human intuition playing itself out through your dreams.
