prophetic markers
-
PROPHETIC MARKERS ARE A LOT LIKE RELATIONAL TRAITS
-
Trust (your hope and faith in Him and His nature)
-
Surrender (submission to His Lordship in your life)
Acknowledgment (worship, passion, seeking & giving place to His input and ways for your life in place of your own)
Just like that, God knows that if He puts some of those things in front of you, you will recognize it.
It’s a secret code because not everyone in the room knows what’s going on, and it’s supposed to be that way.
Proverbs 3:5-6 NKJV Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6 TPT – Trust in the Lord completely, and do not rely on your own opinions. With all your heart rely on him to guide you, and he will lead you in every decision you make. Become intimate with him in whatever you do, and he will lead you wherever you go.
INTIMACY WITH GOD QUALIFIES YOU TO BE LED BY HIS SPIRIT
When you give your heart, mind, body to the Lord, in that things begin to happen that are relational history and become what I call prophetic markers.
– Qualifiers that you KNOW are God and you can trust them without hesitancy.
THE LORD WILL USE YOUR COMMONPLACE SURROUNDINGS TO SPEAK TO YOU SUPERNATURALLY
Jeremiah 1:11-14 NKJV
Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying, “Jeremiah, what do you see?” And I said, “I see a branch of an almond tree.” Then the LORD said to me, “You have seen well, for I am ready to perform My word.” And the word of the LORD came to me the second time, saying, “What do you see?” And I said, “I see a boiling pot, and it is facing away from the north.” Then the LORD said to me: “Out of the north calamity shall break forth On all the inhabitants of the land.
SERVANTHOOD TO THE LORD QUALIFIES YOU TO RECEIVE PROPHETIC SECRETS FROM GOD.
Amos 3:7 NKJV – Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.
Romans 1:20 NKJV – For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse.
