Thread: Do you feel jaded about prophecies and prophecy ?

    Do you feel jaded about prophecies and prophecy ?

    Anyone fell jaded about prophecy ? So many calling themselves prophets may do it. So many failed prophecies you can shake a stick at can also be trying. I really love the ministry of the prophet and prophecy. Maybe it is satan diluting the currency of prophecy ? This makes the real seem false when it comes along because of it rarely being true.

    I know how you feel

    When you see the real prophetic ministry operate it is invigorating and dynamic.
    These days so much is meaningless empty words with a lot of human flesh
    Some of the prophetic websites are embarrassing and not worth reading

    There is great pressure on the prophetically-gifted to always "have a Word" for people. I tend to go to places where there is an abundance of people with the gift and it is properly and prayerfully administered. Secondly, I look for mature and god-fearing people. After a while you will have a feel of who are genuine.

    Even with the gifted person, a "Word" will not always come. God may be testing them to see if they will try to make something up to "look good."

    Useful in warfare? Have to ponder that question. Can't say that I use them for warfare...
    Bring me hope? Again, I can't say I place my faith or hope in them...

    I am listening for things that seem to fit what I believe scripture tells us prophetically and what I sense in my own spirit...when I hear them they just encourage me some ..like finding bread crumbs along and obscure path I am following intently...

    Side note...I don't dismiss the positive ones or the doom and gloom because the truth is I suspect both are true to some degree..revival, falling a way...that challenges me to want to be in the revival group...devastation in America vs a mass outpouring of the power of God...both can happen simultaneously..so I embrace the joy of an outpouring..

    Do any of those signal the end or just the end of things as we know it in this generation? God does not always say for sure...
    I guess what I am saying is that the prophesies can be accurate but only pieces that we misinterpret...

    It was prophesied that Jesus would be born in Bethlehem yet it seems very few were hanging out there expecting Him or even recognized Him when He came...

    I guess I simply believe I want to guard against embracing what men say unless I sense strongly the unction of the Holy Spirit. It's simple...

    We should always Try the spirits..so I don't embrace them...I just trust HIM to reveal what's accurate and what's not..and I don't rush Him to do that either..

    I was specifically speaking of personal prophecies to you ? Any good fruit from that ?
