YEAR 2023: BUILD YOUR FOUNDATION ON THE WORD AND NOT ON A MERE PROPHECY!
Do I believe in Prophecy? Yeah, I do – 100%, 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 belief appeal to sentiments and extortion of people to self gratifications to make such prophecy authentic and genuine.
The scripture did admonish us not to despise Prophesying (Prophecy) – 1 Thessalonians 5:20 (19-21) and to covet to prophesy – 1 Corinthians 14:39-40. And I can’t afford to break God’s WORD in this context. That’s why I believe in Prophecy. For Prophecy 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 prophecy gifted and as they are led by the Holy Spirit considering each other in decency and not in schism – 1 Corinthians 14:26-33. So, on the scriptural context, I do truly believe in Prophecy.
Know full well that in the Old Testament, there was no written WORD for guidance and God’s people have nothing to read for guidance and or to confirm of anything in doing life and living godly; so, people of God then relied solely on the Prophet for the prophetic WORD from God, which sometimes some of these seer Prophet’s took advantage of God’s people like Balaam did as a means for covetousness, greed, extortion couple with false doctrine. Numbers 22-24; 2 Peter 2:15-16; Jude 1:10-12; Revelation 2:14.
Unlike the Old Testament, in the New Creation Testament, there’s now the written word and people who are born of God, have the indwelling Holy Spirit within them, which 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 then – John 14:16-17; Romans 8:9-12. 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 – THE PREVAILING WORD – 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 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 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 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, to bear witness it’s of God; and if otherwise, you know it’s manipulation, craft 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 it’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 you in this year 2023, begin on this brand new dawn year on THE PREVAILING WORD footing rather than waiting, seeking and pursuing for Prophecy or and one to prophecy to make you feel good and better. THE PREVAILING WORD will help you PREVAIL all challenging times when you allow the WORD to work it out for you.

“For THE WORD of God is QUICK, and POWERFUL, and SHARPER than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a DISCERNER of the thoughts and intents of the heart. 13 Neither is there any creature that is not MANIFEST in his sight: but all things are NAKED and OPENED unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do” Hebrews 4:12-13
