BEING TRIUMPHANT IN YEAR 2024: BUILD YOUR YEAR 2024 FOUNDATION ON THE WORD AND NOT ON A MERE PROPHECY!
YOU ARE YOUR OWN PROPHET, HEAR YOU FIRST BEFORE HEARING OTHERS – AND YOU HAVE THE ASSURED WORD OF PROPHECY THAT’S AUTHENTIC AVAILABLE TO YOUR REACH [2 Peter 1:19-21] – AND THE INDWELLING HOLY SPIRIT TO ASCERTAIN AND EXAMINE FOR YOU ALL PROPHECY/PROPHESYINGS ABOUT YOU [Romans 8:14-17; 1 Corinthians 14:26-33] – THINK ABOUT IT NOW!
Do I believe in Prophecy? Do I believe in Prophesying? Yeah, I do – 100% but not in a WISHY-WISHY, however, it DOES mean on which CONTEXT you are asking me and on which I am answering you. I don’t believe in a man-made make-up belief appeal to human sentiments and the extortion of people in their vulnerability for self gratifications in order to make such called Prophecy or Prophesying authentic and genuine, when it’s all of prejudice and dissimulation and such like.
“QUENCH not the Spirit. 20 DESPISE NOT PROPHESYINGS. 21 PROVE ALL THINGS; hold fast that which is good” 1 Thessalonians 5:19-21.
“But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant. 39 Wherefore, brethren, COVET TO PROPHESY, and FORBID not to speak with tongues. 40 Let ALL THINGS be done DECENTLY and in ORDER” 1 Corinthians 14:38-40.
“And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the TESTIMONY of Jesus: WORSHIP God: for the TESTIMONY of Jesus is the spirit of PROPHECY” Revelations 19:10.
The scripture did admonish us not to despise Prophesying (Prophecy) – 1 Thessalonians 5:20 (19-21) and to covet to prophesy – 1 Corinthians 14:38-40. And I can’t afford to break God’s WORD in this context. That’s why I can say that I believe in Prophecy and or Prophesying. For Prophecy or Prophesying, is one of the INSPIRATIONAL gifts of the Holy Spirit – 1 Corinthians 12:10. And the scripture admonishes that when we come together in fellowship, we should allow and let each Prophesy as gifted and as they are led by the Holy Spirit, while considering each other Prophesy in decency, order and not in schism, which is division, confusion and discord. [1 Corinthians 14:26-33]. So, on the scriptural context, I do truly believe in Prophecy and Prophesying.
I want you to know full well that in the OLD TESTAMENT, the people weren’t BORN AGAIN and where not SPIRIT-FILLED too, to enable them to know God for themselves without a reliance on the PROPHETS and PRIESTS and LEVITES and others in use for guidance on the religious rites and ordinance; and it was challenging for those of the OLD TESTAMENT, because there was no written writ guidance for God’s people to examine [judge] in order to know the truth and what a genuine Prophesying and Prophecy could be. Their own basic information was only the God’s warning signals against the false prophets, who goes about saying what God had not commanded or ordered as in the scripture [Jeremiah 23:26-32; Deuteronomy 18:15-22; Deuteronomy 13:1-5].
Also, since God’s people have nothing to read or study to know for guidance and or to confirm of anything for genuity in terms of doing life and living godly the bar was higher since such gifting wasn’t to all; for the people of God in the Old Testament had to rely solely on the Prophet for the prophetic WORD from God, which sometimes, some of these seer Prophet’s took advantage of God’s people just as Balaam did and used it then as a means for covetousness, greed, extortion and with his false doctrine and faith perversions. [Numbers 22-24; 2 Peter 2:15-16; Jude 1:10-12; Revelation 2:14; Galatians 1:6-9].
Unlike the Old Testament, in the New Creation Testament, there’s now the written word and people who are born of God, and have the indwelling Holy Spirit within them – this enables them to know what falsehoods looks like because the Holy Spirit and the available written word of God to all without reservations helps to check and detect any nonsense people do in the name of PROPHECY and PROPHESYING, except the individual gives room to FALSEHOODS and the permission to be exploited ignorantly; and this we know that such opportunities wasn’t possible in Old Testament where it only comes upon the Prophet for a moment in time of use, who were also not born of God to have the Holy Spirit dwelling in them to ascertain the wheat from the chaff [John 14:16-17; Romans 8:9-12; Jeremiah 23:28 (26-32)]. The New Creation Believers of God in Christ Jesus stead, are at a better advantage in such a time now that none can just lie or deceive God’s people when they yield totally and completely to the WORD that prevails over all. Acts 19:20; Acts 20:32; 2 Peter 1:19-21; Matthew 22:29; Hebrews 4:12-13; Hebrews 11:3.
It thus mean that every New Creation Believers in Christ Jesus is a carrier of his or her own PROPHETIC WORD within the WORD of God. You spiritual obligation is to research out on any form of Prophecy or Prophesying that comes to you by the WORD of God, for your own self discovery and recovery by the indwelling Holy Spirit. That is to say that by the WORD, you need to know on how to be INSTRUCTED in order to affirm and confirm to any form of spoken prophecy that comes to you irrespective of who, knowing that they are so many adulteration and perversions everywhere today. And by the Holy Spirit within you, which is working with our human intuitive spirit, we can know the truth by the WORD, in order to avoid errors and not to be misled and misguided; also, when it’s an external spoken word of prophecy by WHOSOEVER, one can by the same process of the written WORD, be able to EXAMINE to make conclusion from such errors many have fallen into today. [1 Corinthians 14:16-33].
And once the Holy Spirit within you ascertain that a PROPHETIC WORD is truth, definitely an inner PEACE is experience accordingly without bondage, thereby bears the witness that it’s of God; and if otherwise, you know it’s manipulation, craft, pervert and deceptive of man, tradition and religious sentiments against God’s WORD. And it means that God is not in it and there’s no LIGHT in it and you MUST not WALK with it and on it, otherwise it’s darkness leading to bondage, torment, fear phobia, misguide and such like. Isaiah 8:10, 16, 20.
Every genuine WORD-BASED messages must be carrying this sum class category of the spiritual gifts (1 Corinthians 12:7-11). The message will be:
* Inspiring
* Revealing and
* Empowering
And every of the inspiring, revealing and empowering WORD-BASED messages must reflect these PROPHETIC sense of lead that’s of God otherwise it’s not God (1 Corinthians 14:3-5):
* Edification
* Exhortation, and
* Comfort
And the WORD message must lead one toward TESTIFYING of Jesus Christ; for in Him all things consist of our REDEMPTION and toward Him should all Prophecy be about in all that pertains to life and godliness in respect of what He’s done FOR us, done IN us, He’s doing IN us and THROUGH us by the Holy Spirit in the WORD as the pointer for all things. Meaning any such call prophetic message is not to point to any other in respect to – man, visioner, title, status, denomination and such like, as we’ve seen many have been taken hold of religiously today rather than of FAITH toward God and His Christ Jesus. [Acts 20:20-21; Revelation 19:10; Hebrews 1:1-4; Hebrews 12:2; Luke 24:25-27, 44-45; John 1:45; Matthew 16:13-20; Matthew 22:41-46].
Therefore, to safeguard your year in this year 2024, there’s the need to begin the year on this brand new dawn year of BEING TRIUMPHANT IN EVERY PLACE IN CHRIST JESUS; having a gracious footing rather than waiting, seeking and pursuing after PROPHECY and PROPHESYING or and looking for one to prophecy to, in order to make you feel good and better. Ensuring the WORD as our foundation and fundamental stand in grace, will help one to PREVAIL and TRIUMPH over all challenging times when you allow the WORD to work it out for you.
