Real prophets are not required to make life better for you! They are made to respond to God about us.
You don't play with them or the other 4-fold ministry gifts that are called to help His Body. They each one have to work at what they each are called to do, be it local or beyond, to make a difference.
They are people with a ministry and when each one does their calling, THE BODY WILL FUNCTION AND PROSPER!!! God places them across the lands, and they often are drawn to like kind.
Prophets learn to discern just like the other ministry callings do. They learn their place and many suffer in that learning! God sees their hearts for HIM!
He appointed them for His purposes, just like the other gifts are called to do! They are required to say what GOD tells them and they mature in this so that a discerning free will response can take place! You don’t respond to prophets but to God and He notices it.
Many try to establish their ministry and not His Ministry. They act like they are doing God a favor! But when you see Him at work, you will bless it! Even apostles will begin to rise up as servants to Him (and are).
But if ministry gifts are really equipping the Body, we would see notable changes! God made a five-fold ministry TEAM, all included, to work for His Leadership among people of the earth today. But many today will fight hard for THEIR OWN MINISTRY!
But IF they would learn to be servants and work TOGETHER, a great Ministry Outpouring would HAPPEN! His power would rush in and be a force of good and righteousness.
How many remember when they received the baptism of the Holy Spirit that a power Force entered your life? It was very exciting. People were hungry to learn and do more. Non-denominational churches burst our everywhere and PEOPLE were working to learn it, just like in Jerusalem past!
Sadly, too many went into "another thing" because there was resistance. There was progress but then a seeming set back! Self got in and agreement in His Biblical Spirit failed (as described in the Bible) and flesh got in.
God just left us, observingly, to see what it would take for us to get back to HIM as our Source! He never left us or forsook us! He wanted us to see Him, but people know how to work things up and experimented.
Flesh got in and now we see a big mess, but God did not let go! Now we are hungry and that clean unity can get a response if we do it right!
HE WANTS TO GIVE US ANOTHER GREAT OUTPOURING! The devil, of course, does not want that, but hungry for God people do! And God notices that REALITY!
We have many ministry gifts that we can use to find the agreement of His good works! He established a leadership team, called the five-fold, that HE will bless if they focus on working with Him.
The world does not have the answers. We are given the gifts to bless the unity and success of the Body.
The Body can overcome and unite with Him, and the Spirit of God will be poured out again. We don't need a thousand bosses, just one good big God who honors the people with His Word!
PRAY FOR GOD TO BLESS HIS BODY AGAIN! HE WANTS THAT. HE SENT JESUS TO DIE FOR THAT! HE POURED OUT HIS SPIRIT AND WILL AGAIN BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT HE WANTS. IT IS WRITTEN IN HIS WORD!
Focus on what HE wants!
