Learning To Prophesy - Now Think On This Steve Martin


Learning To Prophesy
Now Think On This
Steve Martin


“I wish you would all speak in tongues, but even more I wish you would all prophesy. The person who prophesies is greater than the person who speaks in tongues, unless someone gives an interpretation, so that the congregation can be edified.” 1 Corinthians 14:5 CJB


The apostle Paul taught in 1 Corinthians about the gifts of the Holy Spirit (Ruach HaKodesh). In his teaching, he outlined the nine supernatural gifts, and gave instruction on how to grow in the use of them. Some would say that the gifts, miracle and other supernatural acts of God finished in the first century, after Scriptures were written. Many have been taught that we do not need them anymore, as we have the complete Word of God in the Bible.

Really? God stopped speaking after 100 A.D.? Did you tell Him that today?

I for one am very grateful for the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, speaking in tongues and other gifts He has given to His people, for encouragement, instruction, direction and all else that the Lord God of Israel wants to do and say. Today.

In our local church, MorningStar Ministries, led by Rick Joyner, with many other men and women, there are conferences held usually once a month, if not more. I went to one entitled the “50+ Joshua and Caleb Generation”, with John Boneck, one of the pastors, heading it up. As you may have gotten in the title, for those of us over the age of 50 attended.

Different training sessions were offered over the three day gathering. I had selected the Prophetic Training Session, desiring to grow in one of the gifts the Lord has given me, and many, many others who attended those sessions. Just common people like you and I.

Here is what I had received and written down in regards to the 2nd session on that Friday morning. (I used a vacation day from my accounting job to attend.)


Setting: During the Prophetic Training Session on Friday morning, April 4, 2014 at the 50+ Joshua & Caleb Generation Conference at MorningStar Ministries in Fort Mill, SC, we were given a sheet of paper with a place to write down a revelation received and the interpretation on it, on the front side, at the end of the first teaching of the two hour session. We were then instructed to put our name on the BACK side, which was blank. Then all the papers at our table (eight people were seated) were put in the middle of the table and shuffled for later, with the individual names placed down, so we didn’t know whose name was there.

At the end of this portion of the session, during which we were taught on how we can receive revelation, we were given one of the papers, not knowing whose name was on the other side. We prayed, and asked the Lord for a revelation for that “named, unknown to us” person. Once we received something, we were to write it down. The same thing was repeated after the one hour teaching portion of the session, on receiving interpretation, had followed.

Once both sessions were done, we were told to turn the paper over, find the name of the person on the back, and give it to them.

When I got the paper back that I had written my name on the back, now with writing on it from someone else at the table, here is what the person had written down. Again, they had no idea whose name was on the back, but had asked the Lord to give a revelation and interpretation.

In the revelation section they had written:

“Business anointing, gift of holy laughter. Teacher. Obstacles in your path – you take with a grain of salt. Hearing is believing in your relationship with the Lord. Sour – there is something that you have endured that has left a sour taste in your mouth.”

Then in the interpretation section:

“You have a presence on the stage that God has put you on. You use joy to command the stage. You do not show fear as to bolster those you are talking to and others that share your job  - that instill the wrong ideals from their platform. They leave you sour but you do try to teach your peers your way.”


Later I found out that the one who wrote it was a man named Mark Yow from Wilmington, NC. I met him and he helped me read his writing. I told his words were 100% right! I also briefly shared about my accounting job uptown Charlotte and who I worked with.

I also mentioned that the words “business” and “teacher” were right on.

The Lord desires to speak to people all the time in our day. He is sharing His heart to those with ears to hear - to encourage, bless and give direction. I appreciate prophetic ministry!

May you seek the Lord too, for “Jesus Christ (Yeshua HaMashiach) is the same yesterday and today and forever.” Hebrews 13:8 NASU. He wants you to know Him even more.

Stirred Up: An Awakening To The Glory - Keith Miller

Keith Miller:
The Elijah List

Keith and Janet MillerAs I begin this article, I want to share first that what I am writing is not just an article but a deep stirring and a passion in the depths of my heart. The Lord has recently even begun stirring a deeper understanding and a deeper unction to see a national-level of "Glory Revival Awakening" take place.

There is such a powerful need of an awakening in the Body of Christ right now. 

In an awakening, a slumber and apathy is loosed off a generation, and they awaken to the sovereignty and purposes of the Lord for their generation that will impact the coming generations until the Lord returns.

It is very important for us to embrace and pray into this level of an Awakening in our nation. Psalm 33 declares that the plans of many will come to nothing, but the counsel of the Lord will stand firm, and blessed is the nation who has the counsel of the Lord.

The Lord loves to reveal His counsel to each generation. The Word shows in Isaiah 58:12 that we can see a lasting impact on the foundations of generations that lasts even until the return of Christ:
"Those from among you shall build the old waste places; you shall raise up the foundations of many generations; and you shall be called the Repairer of the Breach, the Restorer of Streets to Dwell In" (Isaiah 58:12).

Harvest by Robert BartowAs I share in this article a few thoughts on the topic of Glory Revival Awakening, it will not be all-inclusive. There is much to say and study on this powerful aspect of a national revival. But in our current society, we are in need of a powerful "Awakening" that literally awakens a generation to truth that sets us free and impacts the coming generations.

It is an amazing thing to see a revival break out from the presence and power of the Lord. In a matter of weeks, months, or a few years, a nation can be changed from decades of spiritual decay and depravity into a new course of societal transformation in the Lord's purposes. 


ElijahList Prophetic Resources

I can say with deep conviction and with great expectation in the Lord that there has been a shift in the atmosphere and that people want to walk and live in greater heights with the Lord. I can feel this transition. In that type of atmosphere, people begin to advance in their callings and purposes in the Lord that will, in turn, have societal transformation impact in everyday living around them. 

(Love For His People Editor's Note: I too sensed this shift, and wrote about it in March 2014 in one of my NOW THINK ABOUT THIS message. Steve Martin)

So the Lord stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of the remnant of the people; and they came and worked on the house of the Lord of hosts, their God... Haggai 1:14

Lord of the Dance by Linda Harris-IorioThe phrase "stirred up" in this verse means, in the original Hebrew, "to rouse, awaken, excite, raise up; to incite; to arouse to action; to open one's eyes."

This same Hebrew word is used 81 times in the Old Testament. It is used to describe how an eagle stirs up its nest (see Deuteronomy 32:11), and also how a musical instrument is awakened or warmed up before it is played (see Psalm 108:2). It's used in Isaiah 50:4 twice – when the Lord awakens the prophet each morning, and when He awakens his ear to hear God's message (from The Spirit Filled Bible Word Wealth).

The Lord is arousing many in the Body of Christ deep within the inner man to press in even more, creating a deeper hunger from the stirring of the Lord in the hearts of His people. 

I know this to be true from what I have observed in our own meetings, conferences, and schools. There is a drawing of the Lord for the hungry right now, a deep stirring that brings a cry – a cry of Jeremiah 33:3:
"Call to Me, and I will answer you and show you great and might things, which you do not know." This is called holy desperation! The Lord initiates the hunger; and as He stirs up our spirit, we respond by calling out to Him. He answers us by showing us great and hidden mighty things we did not know!

The word "mighty" there means "inaccessible." It means that it was once fortified, fenced in, and we had no access, but now it has been opened up so that we can come in! He gives us "clearance" to come in to a place where He reveals mysteries. This creates a deeper longing and hunger in the hearts of His people as He begins to reveal His plans and thoughts to individuals, churches, regions, and nations.

We are living in the last days, the times prophesied long ago, right before the Lord Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMashiach, returns. Even as He spoke to the prophets of old in Israel, continuing through Jesus’ time on earth, and with the early church, the Lord is fulfilling His promise. 

His Eternal Word that He would pour out His Spirit on all flesh, and we would prophesy. Prophesy comes in many ways – through the spoken word, signs, dreams, visions, tongues. All are used by the Lord to speak to His people, give them guidance along the way, and show His provision for the plans He has for us. As we walk along His path chosen for us, He desires to encourage and reveal His plans to us. He most certainly uses His Written Word. 

He also uses prophetic words. Here are a few that He has given to me. I am continually amazed at how He speaks, how He directs, and the assuring results of His guidance. We need the gifts of the Holy Spirit operating in these times. 

As the Bible says, He desires that all would prophesy, in order to assist believers in knowing His will, and speaking to non-believers that we serve an All-Knowing God, Who shows us the way. The gifts of prophesy, seeing signs and wonders, and experiencing His love through His fascinating methods is for all. I hope you are encouraged in seeking Him as you read these stores of how He moved in my life.
