Can someone with the Gift of Prophecy help me privately with a message that was told to me?

Greetings, I had someone tell me a message that they stated as prophecy, and although I'm so hopeful about it I think I may need to test it still. The message is deeply personal, so if someone who has the Gift of Prophecy can help me with it please send me a private message, I would deeply appreciate your help. I had been struggling in the past heavily with a topic and this message helped me and gave me so so much encouragement, but I may still need to test it. Thank you for your help and support. May God bless you.

You're right to test the word.

20 "Despise not prophesyings.
21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good." I Thess 5 Kjv

Or as the NOG has it "Don’t despise what God has revealed. 21 Instead, test everything. Hold on to what is good. 22 Keep away from every kind of evil." NOG

So prophetic words are tested by various means such as:
- checked against Scripture (Acts 17:11),
- can asks for confirmation (Matt 18:16; Acts 9;9-19 especially v 10-12; II Cor 13:1),
- fast & pray
- asks for spiritual discernment & wisdom
- does it point to Yeshua, and
- receive G_dly counsel (Prov 11:14).

Perhaps another will be able to give you the response you are seeking.

Many of these types of things can be tested by the Word of God. I went through a period where I believed I had out sinned God's grace. I would always look to people to prophecy that this may not have been the case. God did send prophets, many of them, but they all prophesied one scripture. "I know the thoughts I think toward you, say the LORD, thoughts for good and not evil to give you a future and a hope".

It helped me to be restored to God. But now I have studied the scriptures for myself, and have scripture to back up my belief.

Sometimes our answer lies in scripture, not prophecy.

But know that:

Rom 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

No matter what your situation is, if it was a sin, it is forgiven, if it was you feel inadequate, God can give you strength, and bless you beyond what your natural situation tells you.
