Born to prophesy

PROPER SPIRITUAL DISCERNMENT

When prophetically speaking and interpreting, we should listen and consider, test and ponder but always accept or reject (as truth or heresy) without condemnation (1 Thess 5:17-23) because who really knows the truth of another Spiritual Persons Prophecy? (1 Corinth 2:10-16)

This is why, I never dismiss anything spoken but always seek God’s Counsel after hearing a prophetic WORD. Then, I listen for a week or so for Spiritual affirmations of potential truth by other Spiritual Christians or random sources (like music or life events) to determine TRUTH or LIE. Regardless, my discernment process between good and evil sharpens everytime, so there’s always a GOOD result from the effort.🙏

— LEVELS OF UNDERSTANDING —

1 Corinthians‬ ‭14‬:‭28‬-‭33‬, “if there is no interpreter, (or Spiritual Christian) let him (who is Spiritual) keep silent in church, and let him speak to himself and to God. Let two or three prophets (Spiritual Interpreters) speak, and let the others (who are non spiritual listeners) judge. But if anything is revealed (like a new understanding of Biblical Application) to another who sits by, let the first keep silent. For you can all prophesy one by one, that all may learn and all may be encouraged. And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets (because they will NOT be understood by Christians walking in the flesh.) For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints.”‭
(‬‬ NKJV and Spiritual Clarity for Application )

Said differently,
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭14‬:‭27-‭33‬, ”No more than two or three should speak in tongues. They must speak one at a time, and someone must interpret what they say. But if no one is present who can interpret, they must be silent in your church meeting and speak in tongues to God privately. Let two or three people prophesy, and let the others evaluate what is said. But if someone is prophesying and another person receives a revelation from the Lord, the one who is speaking must stop. In this way, all who prophesy will have a turn to speak, one after the other, so that everyone will learn and be encouraged. Remember that people who prophesy are in control of their spirit and can take turns. For God is not a God of disorder but of peace, as in all the meetings of God’s holy people.“ (nlt)

‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭14‬:‭2‬-‭6‬, ”For if you have the ability to speak in tongues, you will be talking only to God, since people won’t be able to understand you. You will be speaking by the power of the Spirit, but it will all be mysterious. But one who prophesies strengthens others, encourages them, and comforts them. A person who speaks in tongues is strengthened personally, but one who speaks a word of prophecy strengthens the entire church. I wish you could all speak in tongues, but even more I wish you could all prophesy. For prophecy is greater than speaking in tongues, unless someone interprets what you are saying so that the whole church will be strengthened. Dear brothers and sisters, if I should come to you speaking in an unknown language, how would that help you? But if I bring you a revelation or some special knowledge or prophecy or teaching, that will be helpful.“ ‭(nlt)

— ALL GLORY TO GOD —

❤️🕊️ #breakingchainswithjesus 🕊️❤️

READ 2 CORINTH 10 AND JOHN 10:10

Let us pray with our brother John Samuel from Uganda who recently shared this prayer in our spiritual revival group.

He writes✍️,
My Dear Father in heaven, i surrender myself to Your love, the love in which Christ comes to us all. Like children we say every day to the Lord Jesus HIMSELF, “Lord Jesus, come, come! Even if we cannot see You today because times have changed, come into the world, come more and more into world history. Send more and more of Your nature, Your goodness, into all hearts. Come at last, come quickly to bring an end to the adversary, an end to world power with its sinister, hostile character. May bright day, clear light from the Father in heaven, dawn through You, Lord Jesus. Yes, come, Lord Jesus!” Amen. Amen.

With that prayer said,
allow us to clarify why false Christians
will be judged for their Religious Hypocrisy.

The Bible says,
Ecclesiastes‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬-‭17‬, ”there is evil in the courtroom. Yes, even the courts of law are corrupt!” I said to myself “In due season God will judge everyone, both good and bad, for all their deeds.” (nlt)

So, in today’s time, it’s imperative that THE CHURCH is reminded how God always uses “messengers” to WARN His people. Unfortunately, the self-righteous rarely listen to those messengers because they are blind to their own actions because they typically use a Bible to judge others with before allowing it to correct and transform themselves.

With that said, be encouraged to read
“1 Corinth 4:18-21” that instructs us
“who are reborn in the spirit,” to either
correct or love those in our church,
according to their arrogance
or their humility. (Eph 6:12)

However, please NEVER CONFUSE bold and loud (or passionate) CONFIDENCE in the truth of Christ Jesus “for arrogance.” In all honesty, those of us who are truly reborn in the spirit are instructed to cast the spirit of timidity, fear and pride off, so we can stand firm in true faith against the tactics of an oppressive enemy that lurks inside of the church. (1 Thess 5:19-22)

Somehow however, people forget to apply these scriptures to themselves. Especially when they do not LOVE their brothers or sisters and they refuse to repent or follow what “1 Peter 5:3” says. When this happens, they become judged after they throw the first few disrespectful stones at other Christians, who are just trying to love them as we are commanded to do by Jesus. (1 Corinth 2:10-16)

So let the body of Jesus followers

— WAKE UP —

God’s Living Word says,
James‬ ‭4‬:‭4‬-‭12‬, ”You adulterers! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God? I say it again: If you want to be a friend of the world, you make yourself an enemy of God. Do you think the Scriptures have no meaning? They say that God is passionate that the spirit he has placed within us should be faithful to him. And he gives grace generously. As the Scriptures say, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” So humble yourselves before God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come close to God, and God will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; purify your hearts, for your loyalty is divided between God and the world. Let there be tears for what you have done. Let there be sorrow and deep grief. Let there be sadness instead of laughter, and gloom instead of joy. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up in honor. Don’t speak evil against each other, dear brothers and sisters. If you criticize and judge each other, then you are criticizing and judging God’s law. But your job is to obey the law, not to judge whether it applies to you. God alone, who gave the law, is the Judge. He alone has the power to save or to destroy. So what right do you have to judge your neighbor?“ ‭(nlt)

Now, with all of that spiritual awareness having been shared. Let us continue sharpening “iron with our iron,” while we strengthen the true body of Christ in these END of false religion times. (Eph 4:13)

From this, let us pray our churches become filled with unity for those that are “in Christ,” who know how to properly love and respect their brothers and sisters. (Ref: Hebrews 6, Ephesians 4, 1 Corinth 13 and 1 John 3)

Let us also pray 🙏 RIGHTEOUS ANGER becomes an acceptable form of loving correction (Ref: Job 5:17-18) for those who work against the greater commission of the church because we are to be Kingdom oriented, instead of ego decieved.

To explain further, read Romans 12.

In Jesus name, Amen 🙏

Be encouraged to TURN UP the volume of this message and really listen to THE TRUTH of what I’m saying.

— WRITTEN FEBRUARY 2021 —
Then clarified and updated in Feb 2024

To say someone knows the absolute truth is an absolutely false statement by any human. This is why some people say there is no absolute truth. Still others say, the only difference between people is those who know the absolute Truth and those who don’t.

Well, let us pray that their “absolute truth” calls for humility, so we can have less prideful and spiritually blinded by human arrogance problems shall we?

To say one knows the absolute truth seems a little ignorant don’t you think? The absolute truth of what? The whole bible? Every meaning behind every scripture, as it was applied in context to the life circumstances of every person that will ever exist from the time it was written? How about the meaning and absolute truth behind what “GOD” intended every human on earth to understand in regards to how the scriptures should apply to TODAY’S life circumstances for their own unique life problems?

Better yet, how about the absolute truth on exactly how GOD would want that absolute truth preached?

I might be a little naive but I think I’d have to ask GOD because I’m a mere human who is constantly seeking His Wisdom and His Guidance for my Spiritual Walk with Jesus. (Ref: 1 John 2:27, 1 Corinth 2:10-16 and Gal 4:3-17)

— THE TRUTH IS SIMPLE —

The Bible is provided by God through man. Christ died on the Cross and through the miracle of His empty grave, He then reappeared to the Apostles and many witnesses who then became overwhelmed by His Holy Spirit. THE PROPHECY WAS FULFILLED and the GOOD NEWS was provided. Now we may have life and life in abundance through Christ because we too can be overcome by His Holy Spirit when we seek the Kingdom of God in our own hearts and we refuse to be corrupted by the world. (Ref: James 1:27) We also have been given a global body of Christ followers to guide us out of Sin and into a righteous life. We have been given THE BIBLE that provides an eternal Hope through Faith in our Salvation and “bold confidence” in our LIVING GOD who gives us a heart of flesh as He consumes our thoughts with His GRACE in our spirit, so that we do not fight our battles alone because we are empowered by the Holy Spirit with a victory over sin mindset that defeats this worlds lies of depression or false pride.

Now, if any of the 1000’s of denominations of Christianity (who proclaim their followers need their denomination to be eternally saved, Ref: Gal 5:1-2) would like to argue they are the only ones who know the “Absolute Truth,” go ahead but be encouraged to REPENT from that arrogance please.

Instead, let’s just LOVE
eachother in humility shall we?

Why? It’s the GODLY or pure, right and just thing to do since we are Christ followers (or truth seekers) and not human knowledge worshippers.

A good friend of mine says
my challenge is destructive.🤔

To the Church or
to true Christ followers?

In my understanding, conformity is important for like mindedness of a church congregation to promote a tranquil environment of church goers who do not question what the church or denomination believes or practices.

Ask yourself why Jesus called Saul to become Paul who began writing letters to the different churches in protest or support of what was happening inside of their churches. Said differently, Paul became a voice (or messenger) for Christ to inform GOD’S CHURCH of their human corruption; or Apostle Paul would praise them for their good works they’ve done for the Kingdom of Heaven seekers.

So someone might ask, “if I promote division of the church?” However, the better question would be if I am simply challenging my Christ family to strengthen their REAL belief and resolve on who CHRIST is to them personally.

This is done because I believe when we stand UNITED in the face of diversity then we are a STRONGER BODY OF CHRIST. However, when we have a divided body of self righteous people or a destructive form of a follow the leader, I remember more verses or look at my worldly successes that I call fruits of the spirit (fair-weathered) I do it to brag or I do it to belong, not so impressive faith. That’s when I believe Christianity becomes a circus show to the world who really only needs JESUS and not human social clubs.

Sorry Not Sorry

In a creative visual, the typical “Pocket Jesus” can easily get accidentally lost in the laundry. However, “BIG and BOLD Jesus” says if you love me you will shout my NAME from the rooftops and you will proclaim your faith in me to mockers and followers alike, regardless of their judgments; yet you will remain humble and appreciate accountability checks as you straighten your own path to better represent CHRIST. This can provide a strengthened spirit which allows GOD to naturally and positively effect our lives.

Instead, we settle for our own logic or our limited religious beliefs that have been passed down from generational lies or created in our own efforts to justify our comfort zones and safeguard our own ego’s, to merely temporarily boost our thoughts of being more right than other people.

Perhaps it truly is best if everyone lives a life that says “All Glory to God our Father in Heaven” who teaches us to live lives filled with moral integrity. Perhaps it is also best if we continue appreciating what we learn at church and during any conversation that leads others to find and follow Jesus for themselves. All while remaining in fellowship with our other brothers and sisters IN CHRIST because of our love for one another.

To go further, I’d also venture to say the truth is, “we will always be learning a greater truth everytime we read and apply Biblical Scripture to our understanding of how God’s Wisdom is infinitely greater than any humans ever will be,” is THE TRUTH that has set us free from becoming stubborn in our own belief that we are the only ones that know THE FULL TRUTH. 💯

This is where I’ve learned to really enjoy Job’s attitude to THE LORD when he finally repented of his human arrogance.

LORD! he said,
Job‬ ‭42‬:‭3‬-‭6‬, ”You asked, ‘Who is this that questions my wisdom with such ignorance?’ It is I (insert your name here) and I was talking about things I knew nothing about, things far too wonderful for me. You said, ‘Listen and I will speak! I have some questions for you, and you must answer them.’ I had only heard about you before, but now I have seen you with my own eyes. I take back everything I said, and I sit in dust and ashes to show my repentance.”“ ‭(nlt)

Lastly, we should pray that our efforts to share the good news of Jesus gets non-believers interested in learning the scriptures for themselves. We should also understand that however we seek Christ or worship Him in truth will probably not affect our acceptance into heaven when our faith is in Jesus Christ as our saviour from this worlds deception because we constantly repent of our sinful natures to become more like Him and less like the world of slanderers, adulterers, people followers or idol worshippers.

So let us be at peace with one another and continue sharpening Iron with Iron shall we? (Ref: Eph 4:2-4)
