I am taking you by the hand my child and I am leading you in a path you have not known. Do not be afraid but place your confidence in my word for I will perform it. Even now, I am standing before you that you may step out of all the afflictions the enemy has inflicted upon you.
It is my good pleasure and my perfect will to show you things to come. Did I not promise you that in the last days I would pour forth out of my spirit? Yes, my child, It is your generation that the enemy has tried to destroy with the drug culture and every type of evil activity to prevent you from coming to me.
Today my child, I am placing you under the shadow of my wings that you may call out to those in need of me, those who don't know me. I am placing that call in you as you stretch out your hand and touch me. Come for I will lead you and I will make the crooked paths straight before you.
Is this God speaking?
(From Webster Dictionary) Guess what word this definition belongs to:
1 a: the act of insulting or showing contempt or lack of reverence for God b: the act of claiming the attributes of deity2: irreverence toward something considered sacred or inviolable
And I think your a razors edge away from crossing that line.
Oh Vincent, Vincent, Vincent! You don't mind if I call you Vincent do you Jimmie?...LOL
I don't really see christians condemning each other that much.Perhaps God figures the church, the world, and christians in general are so busy condemning each other at every turn that He just doesn't need to waste His time with it. That part is well covered.
This was a beautiful word of encouragement!

This may or may not be a good idea, but like all the other gifts that God gives, the prophetic gifting needs to be practiced in order to be better used. In my opinion, it is not that the gift gets any better with practice, but that the person practicing gets better and better at staying out of the way of the gift.
Therefore, lets try and step out here endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit.
I suppose the biblical model must be our model too, in that one person may offer up what they think is a word and it is to be judged by others. That will take a whole truck load of humility for the ones giving as well as the ones judging. For that reason I do not think it would be fair for people to judge without also stepping out and giving words to be judged, so that should be a rule then. If you give a word you must wait for it to be judged and you must judge another's word before you can give a word again. (And visa-versa).
If it becomes clear that other rules are helpful I will add them to this post and post a notice on the thread as well.
Finally, and most importantly, if the moderating staff feels that this is just a bad idea for peace and harmony to the forum, please delete this thread immediately and accept my apologies. I mean this purely for edification, exhortation, and comfort.

I've done my share of condeming or how is put properly put in the English context, condoning? .
The word is blasphemy.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I cannot praise the Father of light and the Father of mercies enough! I love the cross! "Crucify Him! Crucify Him!" I love the fellowship of His suffering too!!!!
And reading the post, it doesn't look as if the poster is actually speaking but rather it reads as if God actually typed the words. Now that someone has claimed to be standing in the place of a prophet, someone has some proving to do otherwise it could be considered blasphemy.
My own Catholic faith prevents me from operating in that of an office of a prophet. Nevertheless, I am not a prophet. I cannot add nor take away what the Spirit is saying... awesome!
If the intent of the post was to offer encouragement, then the post could have done that without making it look as if God had typed on the keyboard.
With that in mind, will you please give the rest of the prophets a chance to pass on their judgement as to whether it was His word or not? It appears in this thread that you are the only one who is passing judgement. Thank you and God bless you in the only way He does and as He wills.
When there is a boulder in the middle of a stream the water does not halt and wait for the boulder to leave, it merely parts itself and flows right on by. In yeilding to the boulder the water will eventually wear the boulder down to nothing but sand.
I take that as obscure message saying you are going to avoid my questions.
The way your post was typed makes it read as if God Himself is typing. How do I know that was directly from God? Please don't just say it's a mystery of heaven or something. Thomas wanted to see the scars. I want to know how I know this was God speaking.
Thing is, it's hard to judge the prophecy if you are not the person to whom it is addressed. I can say that Stpatterk's post was in line with scripture, and was edifying. Whether it was a prophetic, rhema word can only really be judged by Knownbeforetime, since none of us know her precise circumstances. So perhaps we should wait for her opinion.I'm not trying to tick anyone off and I mean no disrespect to anyone. My questions were meant in all seriousness. Why does nobody else ask "is this really God"? I'm not passing judgement, I'm just making observations and asking the questions. Anyone can feel free to jump in and give their opinions, but nobody else ever asks the tough questions. Why don't they? Does everyone read this and just say "praise God"? Why doesn't anyone read this and go "hey wait a second"?

Hey, no problem. This is sometimes how things are worked out.I really don't like to get snippy with people, but I feel I have no choice in this matter.
Why does it concern you so much? Was this word for you, or was if for Knownbeforetime? If the word was for you I could see you questioning it, but it was for someone else. Won't you please just leave it be?
