    A 'Severe Pruning' of Prophetic Gifts has Begun.

    A ‘Severe Pruning’ of Prophetic Gifts has Begun.
    Bill Yount

    I saw the body of Christ plowing with great difficulty in the field of labor. Finally our plow seemed to hit a stump in the field, and we couldn't go any further. With all our efforts and praying, this stump remained unmovable and steadfast. Our hearts were broken, for we knew God had placed us here to plow in this great field of harvest.

    But this "stump" in the field was stopping us.

    You Have Hit Treasure

    I then heard the Lord say, "You have hit treasure! This is no ordinary stump of an ordinary tree. You have just hit the base of the tree of Calvary. It's the cross growing in your field! You must not, I repeat, you must not remove it. It is growing in your field to remove you out of the way from hindering My harvest. Your will have to embrace this cross and die before I can release resurrection power into your field of labor."

    As we beheld the cross growing in our field, we began to experience a severe pruning in our spiritual giftings, especially in the area of the prophetic. He was cutting and pruning us back to bring forth a surer word. He was adjusting our gifts, callings and ministries to bring forth the fruit of servanthood in our lives. I heard the Lord say, "Your giftings are showing more than your fruit. You are embarrassing Me!"

    There Are Times You Don't Prophesy

    I then remembered ...

    Okay, so who will be anointed as the true bearer of fruit and true prophecy? And who is being removed from the field? I am somewhat dismayed of where this might be going.

    I take this type of word referring to Bill Younts word with a grain of salt...

    Ironic that this word has been spoken by the one whom it is for. When he gave his hershey bar anointings and levi jeans callings, that just said it all in his validity.

    Thanks guys, for your input. I thought it was an interesting word, published in Charisma, so thought maybe it had some weight....but I have no knowledge of Bill Yount or his track record. So Thanks.

    HOWEVER...let's discuss...as Dr. Brown has noted, the Charismatic Pentecostal movement has, in ways, lost it's way.

    One way I have seen is the 'I' emphasis....so to me this word makes sense....time to return to the cross...to be humbled...brought into the body mindset....this word seems to be saying stop! It's not about YOU, it's about ME and the harvest is MINE....?

    As AJ said. I have no idea who this guy is so when I read the piece, I read it for itself...I could not judge it through the author...
