God needed prophets as His spokesmen: When God created man, he handed over all the authority to rule and reign the physical world. So now only through a man God can operate in this world. To bring Jesus into the world he could have done just like he created Adam. But he handed over the authority over to man and so only man can control. This is one of the reason why it took this long for God to save us. Then God, as Jesus came into this world. Now God has a direct contact with physical world as He became a Human. Hallelujah! Devil did not get to do this. 1Timothy3:16(ESV) GOD WON the VICTORY. Even the Devil works his way through manipulating man to do anything in this world. Both God and Devil are from the spiritual world. Two entities at work opposite to each other- from God all good things happen and from the Devil all bad things happen. That is why anything of the spiritual world is not God. Do not be deceived. Anything supernatural is not always God. And you know there are so many prophecies of Jesus’ second coming too which are happening and many are yet to come which are written in the Bible. These Spokesmen from God have spoken already to happen.
God needed people to co-operate with His plan: Many godly people believed God and co-operated with Him to establish His Will.e.g.Mother Mary in this divine purpose of God to bring Jesus! Without her consent God would not have forced her! “And Mary said, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.” Luke 1:38 (ESV). I heard, because of the prophecy that a Virgin will bear a child, every young virgin woman in Israel expected that they might be the One.
Spirit Filled People Should Prophesy
We, as a physical being need to be a prophet to speak over our lives and the people around us as a Spokesman from God so that we will establish God’s purpose in our lives. How?
1)Use the written word of God: Jesus is our example.Jesus did all things to fulfil all the prophecies. Jesus silenced the Devil with written words saying “It is written” Luke 4:1-12(ESV) Jesus quoted the Old Testament word of God to fight the devil. Jesus prophesied His ministry saying Isaiah 61: 1-3(ESV) over Himself. We should know the Word of God well to quote them into our life’s situations. This is very important. Not what world says, doctor says or you think or what the devil says. Anything not of God is harmful to you.
2) Speak in unknown tongues by the Holy Spirit: Sometimes you are not sure what to pray for your own situation or if you pray for others you do not know exactly what they go through and what is the solution. Then you allow the Holy Spirit to speak for you. Speak in tongues a lot. Then you open your mouth and pray in known tongue trusting the Holy Spirit to take over and put the right words into your mouth. God will reveal to you what you are praying for to benefit you and the one you are praying over. And what we prayed for will manifest supernaturally. e.g. God gave Quail’s meat. Moses was a prophet, God took His Spirit from him and put on 70 elders. Then all of them prophesied and God could bring the quails in millions to that desert place from far off. Numbers 11:16-17; 25-29; 31-32(ESV)
3) Speaking again over you whatever personal prophecies you received from people prayed over you.You write down all the prophecies given to you in person when saints of God prayed over you and read the prophecy again over you and your loved ones till it all come to pass.This way you will start believing when you speak about it again and again. God uses those Words spoken by you to bring them into the physical form.You should know to identify the prophecy spoken over you is from God or not. If the prophecy is from God, it will be to COMFORT, EDIFY AND ENCOURAGE. False prophecy will be condemning. Only the Devil is the accuser of the brethren.“For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.” 2 Peter 1:21(ESV) Deuteronomy 18:15, 21-22 (ESV)
4) In your daily conversation speak good things and things you want : Speak what you desire to have and not what you see in the physical. The moment you utter a word Spiritual World is alerted and things will manifest. That is why many bad things happen to people because of what others said over them or they themselves said in anger and frustration. Make sure you say positive, good words to allow God to operate on your behalf.
