Listen To God For Prophecy (Daily Devotional)

Greetings and thank you for giving us the opportunity to come to you today and spend these few moments with you in the word, in prayer. This week, we are talking about learning how to release the gift of prophecy or how to prophecy. As we make this journey step by step, today, we will talk about listening to God for the prophetic word. Yesterday, we said we must covet or desire from the giver of the gifts. You go to God and say, give me a prophetic word. As you are praying the prayer, you must listen to God for what He gives to you. How does God speak to us? He speaks to us through the faculties of our human spirit. Our human spirit has at least 5 faculties, it can hear, see, feel and perhaps also smell and taste. So, through those 5 faculties of our spirit, I’m not talking about our body, but our spirit, God speaks to us. Jesus said in John chapter 10, verse 27, ‘My sheep hear my voice.’ So, we can hear His voice. Now, voice in the spiritual realm doesn’t always have to be audible. The voice of God transfers His information to us without the use of sound. It just the impartation of His knowledge to us in our spirit through the faculties of what we see, hear and feel. In John chapter 16, verse 13, Jesus said about the Holy Spirit that when He comes, He will guide us into all truth and He will speak to us, whatever He hears and He will show us things to come. So, He will speak, guide and tell. Where does He do it? In our spirit. The Holy Spirit is communicating to us in our spirit and through our spirit faculties, through what we see in our spirit, though the information that comes into out spirit, through the knowing that comes, through the feelings we have in our spirit, He is communicating to us. So, when you listen to God for the prophetic word, what you are actually doing is that you are seeing if there is anything coming through in our spirit, through our spirit faculties. Are you seeing a picture, a vision, or some images that God is putting in your spirit? Is there a word, maybe information, details, things that are coming into your spirit. Are you feeling something, feeling peace, a sense of excitement? What do you feel in your spirit? And through that, you are receiving the word that God is communicating to you. We’ve got more on this in our book on ‘Understanding the prophetic’, I would encourage you to download and study so that you can learn how to listen to God for the prophetic word; that is step 2, once you get that word in your spirit, you are then ready to minister, we will continue this tomorrow. Let’s pray, Father, we thank you that each of us could be channels of your voice, channels of what you are saying to others. I pray that you will awaken and stir up the gift of prophecy in each of us, that we may release and be a blessing to others, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
