THE PROPHET’S OFFICE, THE PROPHETIC SPIRIT, AND ITS FUNCTIONALITY IN THE 21ST CENTURY. CORE CHARACTERS OF A PROPHETIC SPIRIT. DAY 10.

THE ECCLESIA HAS UNDOUBTEDLY BEEN USHERED INTO A NEW SPIRITUAL SEASON THAT REQUIRES AN UPGRADE, UPDATE AND REDEFINITION OF ALL THE ASCENDED GIFTS OF MINISTRY, BUT IN PARTICULAR THE MINISTRY AND OFFICE OF THE PROPHET, IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN RELEVANT LEADERSHIP SPIRIT IN THE EFFECTIVE ADMINISTRATION OF THE ECONOMY OF THE LORD AT THESE PRESENT TIMES.  

THE BASIS FOR DEFINING THE PROPHETIC NATURE AND ACCURACY OF THE DAYS WE LIVE IS TO PRECISELY AUTHENTICATE THE TESTIMONY OF CHRIST, WHICH IS THE SPIRIT OF PROPHECY ESTABLISHED ON SOLID BIBLICAL DOCTRINE. DOCTRINE IS A BIBLICAL LIFESTYLE ESTABLISHED ON THE KNOWLEDGE AND PRACTICE OF BALANCED TRUTH, IN CONSISTENCY TO AN APOSTOLIC CULTURE AND PHILOSOPHY, BUILT ON AN [UNSHAKABLE] UNCOMPROMISED FOUNDATION OF THE FRUIT AND GIFT OF THE SPIRIT.

THE NEW TESTAMENT MINISTRY, OR WHAT WE CAN REFER TO AS THE BIRTH OF THE CHURCH ACCORDING TO THE BOOK OF ACTS OF THE APOSTLE, INTRODUCES US TO A MORE PRECISE AND RELEVANT APPROACH TO WHAT THE PURPOSE OF THE FATHER LONGS FOR IN THE UNDERSTANDING AND OPERATION OF THE PROPHETIC OFFICE AND GIFT.   

THE IS PROPHETIC SPIRIT, AND MINISTRY IS VIEWED, APPROACHED, AND OPERATION FROM ITS INFANT STAGE OF THE BIRTH OF THE NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH IN THE UPPER ROOM, AND SHOULD BE TRACKED IN ITS DEVELOPMENT THROUGH THE ADVANCEMENT OF ITS MINISTRY GIFT ACCORDING TO THE BOOK OF ACT CHAPTER 13, WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT SPOKE EXPRESSLY THROUGH THE CHURCH FOR CERTAIN INDIVIDUALS TO BE SEPARATED AND SENT TO REPRESENT THE NEXT INTENTION OF GOD COUNSEL ACROSS ASIAN MINOR. 

IF THE NEW TESTAMENT CONCEPT OR APPROACH TO THE PROPHETIC IS WHAT CAN BE DEFINED AS A MORE EXCELLENT MINISTRY, WE, THEREFORE, NEED TO CLEARLY DEFINE THE FOUNDATION OF WHAT THE PROPHET’S MINISTRY IS FROM THIS BACKDROP, AND EXAMINE THE CORE COMPONENTS THAT ESTABLISHES THE FRAMEWORK AND THE CHARACTER ARCHITECTURE OF THE PROPHETIC SPIRIT AND GRACE.

HENCE, WE SHOULD ASK OURSELVES THE QUESTION, WHAT IS THEN THE NEW TESTAMENT APPROACH OR FOOTING INTO THE PROPHETIC MINISTRY? WHILE THE CHARACTER LIFE AND VALUE STANDARD OF THE PROPHETIC MINISTRY AND CALLING NEVER CHANGE, WHICH INCLUDE THAT OF THE OLD TESTAMENT, WE HOWEVER, CONTINUE TO WITNESS THE DYNAMICS AND THE EVER-INCREASING SHIFT IN WISDOM, METHODS AND APPLICATION OF THE PROPHETIC OFFICE AND GRACE. 

WHILE PROPHETIC VALUES, CHARACTER AND PRINCIPLES ARE AESTHETIC, THE DYNAMISM OF OPERATION DEFERS FROM PLACE, TIME TO TIME, AND SEASON TO SEASON. NO TWO PROPHETS OR PROPHETIC GIFTS ARE THE SAME. BUT THE UNDERLINING CREDIBILITY THAT FORMS THE FRUIT OF THEIR MINISTRY WILL ALWAYS BE THE SAME, THEY WILL NEVER CHANGE BECAUSE CHRIST IS THE SAME TODAY, YESTERDAY, AND FOREVER.   

AND HE SAID, HEAR NOW MY WORDS: IF THERE IS A PROPHET AMONG YOU, I THE LORD WILL MAKE MYSELF KNOWN UNTO HIM IN A VISION, AND WILL SPEAK UNTO HIM IN A DREAM. MY SERVANT MOSES IS NOT SO, WHO IS FAITHFUL IN ALL MINE [ADMINISTRATION AND ECONOMY] HOUSE. WITH HIM WILL I SPEAK MOUTH TO MOUTH, EVEN APPARENTLY, AND NOT IN DARK SPEECHES; AND THE SIMILITUDE OF THE LORD SHALL HE BEHOLD:  (NUMBERS 12:6-8)
