What is a seer ?

There are many books, classes, and workshops on developing one's spiritual gifts in this area. Here's one I've been involved with. It's actually quite powerful.

Jennifer is a great resource for this kind of thing.

I am able to see into the spiritual realm. It happened about a year and a half ago.
I had a vision of Jesus in the clouds. Then I saw a temple with a bright light emanating from the doorway in the clouds. People were standing in front of it. Both visions were in color.
In photographs I can see spirits.
I can tell you that the demonic spirits as described in Revelation 9 are here. I see them in the sky all the time. They are disguised as clouds. They match exactly to those described in Revelation 9. They wear a crown and have scorpion tails.
UFOs can't be explained because they arent interplanetary visitors in alien crafts.
They are demonic spirits flying around disguised as alien crafts.
This is why they manuever the way they do. Their purpose is to confuse and alarm humanity. It is one of Satans deceptions.
I have seen at least 300 earthly spirits .
I see spirits every single day.
I am not onto the occult.
I ask God for guidance...and find myself posting prophetic words on FB that seemingly come out of nowhere.

The vision of Jesus is awesome..

No doubt some believers "see" more than others and they're not involved the occult.

Seeing both - "And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light." II Cor 11:14 Some must need that info or it wouldn't have been provided.

Jesus said "But Jesus held his peace, And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God.
"Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven." Matt 26:63-64 The high priest wasn't the only one who was told they would see.

There are spirits listed in Scripture such as "And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself." Luk 13:11 Books have been written on this subject as well.

Yes, there are seers in the Bible! They are 1/3 in the gift category that entails being able to perceive the spiritual realm, the other two being revelators and prophets! A seer, would, for example, be able to see a demon as a literal entity attached to someone. This would allow them to know who needs prayers, who needs help, etc. I've read accounts of those with this gift and it is quite interesting, and as with any gift, grows with faith in God.

Not all prophets are seers, but all seers are prophets.

First, in the Bible there ARE prophets. We can all have our opinion on what we think is important or not, but it's always best to refer to the Scriptures.

Ephesians 4:11-13

"And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ"

You can read books by James W. Goll on the topic. He does a great job supporting with Scripture.

(Realizing that not everyone who sees in the spirit realm is a prophet).

God is going to allow us to "see" until the end according to Scripture "And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:" Acts 2:17

Also, "But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil." Heb 5:14

Our physical senses can have spiritual purposes such as:

-Isaiah 6:1-10, sawc and heard

-Peter saw, heard, and felt an angel. Acts 12:7

-In I Kings 19:7, Elijah saw and ate the food (food usually has a smell).

-Ezekiel wrote, "So I ate it, and it tasted as sweet as honey in my mouth" (Ezek. 3:1-3).

John received a scroll from an angel. He wrote, "It tasted as sweet as honey in my mouth, but when I had eaten it, my stomach turned sour" (Rev. 10:8-10).

Shown in other Scriptures such as Isaiah 6:1-2; Acts 12:7; I Kings 19:7; Ezek 3:1-3; Rev 10:8-10.

EPHESIANS 4

"He handed out gifts of apostle, prophet, evangelist, and pastor-teacher to train Christ’s followers in skilled servant work, working within Christ’s body, the church, until we’re all moving rhythmically and easily with each other, efficient and graceful in response to God’s Son, fully mature adults, fully developed within and without, fully alive like Christ."

Please, please please, let's not take away from the Word and claim there are no such gifts as prophecy when it is so important that APOSTLE PAUL confirmed this in the book of Ephesians.

But a seer sees while the other kind of prophet hears with their ears..

I think the Hebrew is raa’sh ?
I know the other one is Nabiy I think..

What is a seer ? Can anyone describe what a seer is ?

A Seer is what a prophet was called during the age of the Judges, Samuel was the last judge who anointed Saul and then David and began the age of Kings.

During the age of Kings, Seers was no longer used as a term, the same was called a Prophet.

Seer and Prophet are the same thing, different word choice for different era.

"For he that is now called a Prophet was beforetime called a Seer."
‭‭1st Samuel‬ ‭9:9‬ ‭

I can't find any definition of a seer in the New Testament.

That's because it was only used during the age of the judges.

"Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not..." (Isa 30:10).

Is there a new testament reference to seer?

No you were correct. A prophet used to be called a seer, just like scripture specifically says.

It was in ancient times what they called a prophet.

My reply was addressing the convention to use one old testament verse to form a doctrine. There is a denominational teaching that does say that a seer sees, and a prophet speaks. However, this was not carried over to the new testament - thus, not a thing.

I think you mean a seer sees and a prophet hears, this may not be a doctrinal, straight biblical thing, but it is a thing. God speaks to people many different ways. Visions from God and hearing His voice are common ways God communicates, found in both NT and OT.

However, in the new testament all people participating in the divine nature from the greatest to the least know God.

Restricting people to one role is kind of defeating the purpose.

Growing into different roles as you mature spiritually is totally a thing, and it's awesome.

Minimizing people's perceptions is catering to the people in the crowd who haven't awakened yet, and it's holding back those who have.

I don't see how what I posted restricts or minimizes anyone. In fact quite the opposite.

Those on the outside of the doctrinal bubble get plenty of interruption correction when trying to share their experiences. If you notice that, might be good to investigate.
