2 Kings 19:20 Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, “Thus says the LORD God of Israel: ‘Because you have prayed to Me against Sennacherib king of Assyria, I have heard.’
Every now and then we must revisit the basics to refresh ourselves in our pursuit of the deeper Spiritual truths. A prophet is one who “forth tells”, not “foretells”. His job is to speak “The Word of the LORD”, he is a mouthpiece. False prophets foretell and often are found to be wrong. Anyone can predict a winner of a basketball game and get it right roughly 50% of the time. However in Spiritual circles, predicting events is foretelling unless you have been given the The Word of THE LORD. Hence a prophet’s job is to hear, then speak. It is up to each of us to observe the fruit of the various ministries we follow. If a man or woman is called to the office of a prophet, the fruitfulness should result and be observable once the anointing arrives.
I was told by Our Heavenly Father to proclaim my calling as “treasurer”. What does a treasurer do? He oversees the wealth for future distribution. Riches come in and riches go out. All is properly accounted for. Has the fullness of the anointing for me to operate in the office arrived? Not to my knowledge. I have gone through years of preparation to oversee some type of wealth but I have not received the fullness of the anointing yet.
Luke 24:49 Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high.”
This is what I am waiting for- to be endued with power from on high. I see myself in an extended training program that actually began in 1987 with the vision I was given. There have been many blessings throughout the training program but I will know when the fullness of the power arrives. I received a taste of the power in March of 1993 when I went to Romania on a missionary trip. Three weeks of sustained anointing provided me with a perspective of the “power”. On my return to the U.S., the anointing ceased.
From my perspective, there has been a “dearth” in the land. The major ministries operating in the “gifts” of the Holy Spirit have subsided. Those men who were mightily anointed have come and gone. In the meantime, a remnant continues to prepare for the next major move of Our Heavenly Father. I believe it is those who embrace all three feasts from a perspective of Love that will be given the appropriate mantle to operate from. These are the ones who will be endued with power from on high.
Luke 16:.10 He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much.11 Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? 12 And if you have not been faithful in what is another man’s, who will give you what is your own?
Are you being a faithful steward? In the above parable, Jesus talks about being a good steward over money and others’ possessions. If you are found to be a good steward, you will be given the “true riches” to steward. What are the true riches? They are the mysteries reserved for the initiated. I am more than willing to steward over Kingdom riches rather than the unrighteous mammon where so many have placed their focus. The true riches are not corrupted. The Truth will outlast any temporary wealth men seek after. I am more interested in the everlasting than the temporary. How about you?
