Prophecy & Prophetic Ministry
Certainly the Lord God does nothing unless He reveals His secret plan to His servants the prophets.” —Amos 3:7
The prophetic ministry matters NOW, in this time in which we live, more than ever. Why? Because we are in such credibly historically Biblical times, which cannot be denied. Biblical prophecy is literally unfolding and being fulfilled in front of our very eyes—in real time!
This divine role of prophecy cannot be underestimated as it transcends personal spirituality to guide the collective Body of Christ. It functions as a spiritual compass, illuminating pathways that are often obscured by personal and even worldly distractions and uncertainties. The prophetic ministry calls for an awakening, urging Believers to step beyond passive acknowledgment into active engagement with God’s unfolding narrative.
Through prophecy, the Church is empowered to discern the intricacies of God’s timing and plans. It challenges spiritual complacency, compelling individuals and communities to rise to their divine potential. Prophets are not merely messengers but catalysts who ignite a fervent pursuit of God’s truth and purpose. Their words resonate deeply because they are anchored in divine revelation, stirring hearts to recognize and embrace their calling with renewed conviction.
In essence, the prophetic ministry serves as both a reminder and a call to action. It beckons the Body of Christ to not only witness the fulfillment of Biblical prophecies but to actively participate in the glorious unfolding of God’s Kingdom on Earth.
Our LORD Jesus Christ Himself is the One who gave the prophet as part of His 5-Fold Ministry and His New Covenant (Eph. 6:11). It’s time for the Church to be awakened and stirred to not only accept the prophet and the prophetic, but to believe God will use it today to communicate to His Body.
Pastor Bill Johnson had this to say, “The prophet comes to re-engage and reset that which is out of order. . . Prophets put things back in place letting the Body know why they are alive!”
Prophets are called to speak truth, often challenging the status quo, and calling the Church to align with God’s purposes & will.
Thus the prophetic ministry serves as an essential bridge between divine revelation and the practical unfolding of God’s will on Earth. It provides clarity and direction, ensuring that the Church remains steadfast and aligned amidst ever-shifting cultural and spiritual landscapes. Prophets, through their God-called purpose, challenge believers to not merely observe the unfolding of Biblical prophecy but to actively participate in the divine narrative. This engagement demands faith, discernment, and a willingness to act upon revelations that may seem audacious but are rooted in eternal truth.
As we stand at the crossroads of these prophetic times, it becomes ever more evident that the Church must fully embrace its divine mandate. The prophetic is more than a gift—it is a stewardship of God’s voice, calling us to walk boldly in faith and obedience. This is not a season to remain on the sidelines; it is a time to press in, to hear clearly, and to act decisively.
The prophetic ministry reminds us that our lives are intricately woven into the tapestry of God’s eternal plan. It challenges us to ask ourselves: Are we truly living out the purpose for which we were created? Are we actively contributing to the unfolding of God’s Kingdom, or have we allowed spiritual lethargy to dampen our fervor?
As prophetic words align with the Scriptures and the unmistakable signs of the times, there is an urgency placed upon the hearts of believers. The Church must rise in unity, not in fear or hesitation, but in the power and authority given through Christ. This unity is not merely for collective strength but to usher in the next phase of God’s divine agenda with clarity and purpose.
That being said, the LORD has brought back to me a Word given me decades ago—which is a now word for His Body in this crucial Hour.
I firmly believe that the word God has given me will definitely help the Body re-engage and reset—letting them know and understand why they are alive in the midst of Biblical end times prophesy being fulfilled. If there was ever a time this is needed—it’s NOW!
This is what the LORD has purposed in my heart to assist the “Church” in this Hour as part of a prophetic and Kingdom assignment:
- Prophetic Ministry to the local church—both leadership and laypeople alike: Encouraging, exhorting, strengthening and more.
- Call, form, and operate a prophetic alliance and forum from area prophets and prophetic people in agreement.
- Prophetic equipping, training, and preparing upcoming prophetic leaders and laypeople. (Eph. 4:11-13) Ordaining and sending out.
- Prophetic Healing and Deliverance (Mt. 10:8).
- Prophetic Intercessory Prayer (Is. 56:7; Mk. 11:17).
- Restoration of the ministry as Jesus did with signs, wonders, and miracles through the prophetic (Mk. 16:17-18).
- Prophesy a Revival of the Kingdom of God in the Church and on earth as it is in Heaven (Mt. 4:17;23; 6:10; 33;10:7-8; Jm. 2:5)
- Serving in the prophetic alongside A.R.M. (Authentic—Remarkable—Motivated) Encounters for Women or other general groups.
Prophetic ministry can be accomplished through seminars, general classes, workshops or whatever approach fits the local church or group desiring ministry or training. Prophetic ministry can most of the time be accomplished onsite at the local church; or you can join one of the small group training workshops or encounters provided throughout the year at the New Beginnings Christian Ministries & Institute office in Leicester, NC.
