Dealing With Coming Events

What events are coming that will affect you and me?

A prophet is someone chosen by God to speak for God. Their job, whatever the time period or tidings, was to accurately impart His message. Men and women called to this task came from differing backgrounds, personalities and levels of social status. But what they all had in common was a heart for God, an anointing to hear from Him, and the faithfulness to impart his message to others.

A prophet may alert us to a situation that we are not aware of.  A prophet may confirm a Word given to us by FATHER, often an unexpected Word.  The prophet may issue a warning of a forthcoming event requiring us to pray or simply to urge us to prepare for such an event.

It is written by THE SPIRIT in Amos chapter 3:

7 “For the Lord GOD does nothing without revealing HIS secret to his servants the prophets.

FATHER does not want HIS devoted believers to be blindsided by an impending event.

It is written by THE SPIRIT in Malachi chapter 4:

1 “For behold, the day is coming, burning like an oven, when all the arrogant and all evildoers will be stubble. The day that is coming shall set them ablaze, says the LORD of hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor branch.

2 But for you who fear My Name, the sun of righteousness shall rise with healing in its wings. You shall go out leaping like calves from the stall.

3 And you shall tread down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet, on the day when I act, says the LORD of hosts.

4 “Remember the Law of my servant Moses, the statutes and rules that I commanded him at Horeb for all Israel.

5 “Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and awesome day of the LORD comes.

6 And he will turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the land with a decree of utter destruction.”

FATHER warned Israel through the prophets in the Old Testament… multiple times over thousands of years.

Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter 11:

11 Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has arisen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet the one who is least in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater than he.

12 From the days of John the Baptist until now the Kingdom of Heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force.

13 For all the Prophets and the Law prophesied until John,

14 and if you are willing to accept it, he is Elijah who is to come.

15 He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

16 “But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces and calling to their playmates,

17 “‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not mourn.’

18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’

19 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Look at him! A glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ Yet wisdom is justified by her deeds.”

Prophets are often ridiculed because their prophecies did not agree with the recipients’ preconceptions of how or what should transpire.  The Jews could not recognize Jesus even as He was standing before them in the flesh.  They all knew the Book of Isaiah where Jesus was fully described.  They did not have eyes to see or ears to hear.

What about today?  There are true prophets and false prophets.  How do we tell the difference?  The Holy Spirit will help us discern the difference.
