wanting a prophetic word (moved from WOF)

Thanks for all the posts.

In relationship to the sf/pc, these screens are so active - sorry I overlooked that section. Appreciate that info too.

The gift of prophecy would not have existed if it wasn't God's will that we operate in it. I believe that one should not be addicted to prophecies though, because we live under the New Covenant with the Holy Spirit dwelling in us and speaking to us on a continual basis. Prophecy should not replace our spiritual ears which receives direct input from the Spirit, but it works side-by-side to help us receive that input.

You can get a prophetic word from your Father straight from the Holy Spirit and His word, yourself. You don't need to seek it from someone else. Though we can give you a word; the perfect way to do it is for the word to come direct from Heaven to you, without the middle woman or middle man.

I believe that ANY prophetic word given to me must be a CONFIRMATION, not a REVELATION.
The purpose of the Prophets of the Old Testament was to deliver the Word of the Lord to His people...the connection was lost through sin....But now, as believers, he dwells within us. So if someone comes to you with a "word" and its not a confirmation, then I run and run hard.
And the verse mentioned...check the interpretation of the word "prophesy".....

God bless,

I have had prophetic words that were new to me, something that I had not heard previously from the Lord. Of course, I started asking, "Is this word really from Him?"

Then right the next day, I got another prophecy that said the same thing, from another person. Also, I got like three words after that from people from other parts of the world saying the same thing.

So I don't believe that prophecy is always a confirmation to something that God has already told you. God could confirm the validity of a prophecy after it has been given.

You know, it's one of those things where people read the same verses and get different interpretations from them.
