The Demystified Grace to Prophesy – Prophesy is equal to and congruent with the testimony of Jesus, the story of His love, His redemptive work on the cross, and His eternal plan for us. Any prediction or spiritual guidance that doesn’t come from that source is counter to or anti-Christ. We are to have no desire for it. Prophecy strengthens, encourages, and comforts others. Any spiritual guidance that doesn’t perform within this mechanism for delivery is not from God’s heart. We are all called to be supernaturally natural people who hear God, but encourage others to hear and confirm what we believe He is saying. We live out the fullness of the Holy Spirit in a social lifestyle, sounding off His communication with us amidst our communication with others. In fact, the purpose of all spiritual gifts, including prophecy is to help each other. God speaks to us in many different ways. As we learn to hear Him, we can grow in our confidence and strengthen or perfect the gift of prophesy.
