In these 'modern times' when prophets are thin on the ground and even scarce in the Church, how do we know who is a real prophet and who may just be masquerading as a prophet? God gives a prophet time for preparation typically. John the Baptist had 30 years, as did Jesus Christ, whereas Paul had only around three. Have a look at the following article taking us through the theme Describing and defining the work and Prophetic ministry start up coaching and consulting.
This is why the apostle Paul, in his epistle, took up an offering for the believers living in Jerusalem. Paul was proactive in his response to this prophecy; prophecy helps us prepare and take proactive measures. Paul had a heart of compassion to help them through this unfruitful and challenging time. The church in Antioch acted proactively responding to the prophet's prediction that was yet to come.
It is Psalm 24 where we have the question, who is the Lord of glory, and the answers in the Psalm spell it all out, and they are reconfirmed in Revelation. At the right moment, God will act, and there will be no delay. Read Chapter 10 and read the context of the preparation for the coming again of Jesus Christ back to this world sort things out and to restore what was wrong.
In every prophetic department, we witness moral uprightness. We see simplicity of worship and spiritual directness. Each prophetic ministry displays high standards of inter-personal relationships. It is all there in the Sermon on the Mount. Some plead that biblical standards are too high, too narrow, too limiting, for today. Not so.
In these final moments of time, do you know what God is going to do? Revelation tells us! God is going to raise up preachers, and preachers who will be prophetic. He will have a band of prophetic preachers or a community of prophets. Prophets do not just teach the Word and expound the Scriptures, but they give a direct word from God.
The prophet's role is to seek and discern God's voice. The word counsel above comes from the Hebrew word crowd meaning "a private session, a company of persons in close deliberation; by implication-intimacy, consultation, a secret assembly, secret (counsel)." It means going into God's presence to have a meeting or session with Him.
What happens in one of these sessions with God? First, you connect and relate to your Creator. God desires a relationship with His people, but we are to make a concerted effort to meet with Him during our prayer times. His presence is addictive, once we make it in we experience dimensions of Him that are all too wonderful, and naturally, we are inclined to want more of Him.
The word can be so sweet, and yet some grim consequences can be seen. What God is wanting is a prophetic people, who will speak out God's word, and live out God's word. As you eat this book, this will happen in your life. Now, the prophets were never very popular. Jesus reminds us that the religious people stoned the prophets.
