Online Prophetic Ministry And How You Can Develop Your Spiritual Gift Of Prophecy

By Debra Murray


Visionary department is coming into maturity in this season. There will be prophets similar to John the Baptist that God will raise up, who will bring whole nations back to an encounter with God. Have a look at the following article taking us through theme Online Prophetic Ministry discernment and assignments.

The gift of prophecy, as with other offerings, benefits from learning, training, and practice. The Bible teaches us that the life of our local church is the primary context in which we should develop and exercise our visionary gifts (1 Cor 14). If you would like to know how to develop your visionary gift, here are five contexts in which you can do so, along with some ideas to help you get started:

Accurate prophecies, healing, and other compelling demonstrations may make people think that these ministers are perfect. Many believe that people with heavy visionary anointing must be uniquely godly and with all their doctrine biblical and correct. This concept is not real, nor is it biblical.

Write down your visionary thoughts and experiences. Identifying which visionary words have proven accurate over time can help you sharpen your gift. Documenting your prophecies can also be useful if you would like to obtain advice or feedback from a mentor or leader; Seek out helpful resources such as Internet training, DVDs, and books that can teach you how to grow in your visionary gift.

This concept is also false and non-biblical. In the letter to the Corinthians, Paul describes that the Corinthians had severe mistakes in their doctrines and that they had terrible characters. In fact, the Corinthians is the most carnal church throughout the epistle. But they are also famous for their manifestations of the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

I have seen and heard visionary voices declaring blessing over the calamities in the world that are occurring. That may sound like a correct visionary word unless the catastrophes the prophecy is trying to address are happening as a result of human rebellion and sinful actions. Will God honor that kind of predictive word of restoration and blessing? Not likely, until the cause of the spiritual problem is resolved with Him.

The resolution calls for repentance or turning back to God and seeking His forgiveness first. This step of repentance then leads to a personal commitment which brings a long term relationship with Him, and that will honor Him. It is then that visionary blessings can be declared and invoked by the prophet because that aligns your word with what God has established.

Personally, do not give up in serving others with spiritual gifts just because you did not have excellent performance spiritually that day. God can still use you to bless someone considerably only if you are willing to. God gives spiritual gifts to a person for the universal benefit of the church rather than for individual pleasure. When the Holy Spirit is so kind and merciful that He anoints us with a spiritual gift, let us also be the gifts and blessing given to others.
