Everybody wants to be a Prophet/Prophetess but you got to flow in_______. He that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.” (Revelation 2:29)
We need to listen to what the Holy Spirit is saying to the Church.
Some people think that a prophet/Prophetess must give personal prophecies to qualify to walk in the office of a prophet. That’s partially true. He will give personal prophecies, but his revelation gifting goes far beyond personal prophecy. Personal prophecy is the lowest prophetic operation of the true prophet. I say that because some have hyper-focused on personal prophecy and miss the big picture of the prophet’s ministry. Prophetic ministry is a wonderful gift from God. Prophets also:
· Are forerunners who make a way for “greater things” to come (Matthew 3:3)?
· Deal with spiritual climates (Jeremiah 1:10).
· Turn people from sin to holiness (Jeremiah 23:21-22).
· Are front line intercessors (Jeremiah 27:18)?
· Turn the hearts of fathers and sons (Malachi 4:5-6).
· Challenge dead traditions of men and dangerous spirits of religion (Matthew 3:9-10).
· Are stewards of the mysteries of God (Ephesians 3:5)?
· Carry lamentations, mourning and woe (intercession burdens) (Ezekiel 2:10).
· Are fore-tellers of things to come (Amos 3:7)?
· Contend with false prophets of divination including Jezebel and Baal (1 Kings 18:19).
· Challenge demonic territorial guards (Acts 13:7).
· Speak to the nations and kingdoms (Jeremiah 1:5).
