So, you think you are a prophet? by Rav Sha'ul   So... you think you are a Prophet? I know, 99.99999999% of people who have "Prophet/Prophetess" in front of their names are not at all prophets. A true prophet would never tell you he/she is a prophet, and certainly not attach that title to their name. People love to "be something special" in the Kingdom! They want the authority and the respect, so they “self-appoint” themselves as “Prophet” so they “speak for Yahuah” and demand the respect for their words that His Words carry! A true prophet is not like that at all, they fear Yahuah, and hesitate to speak on His behalf, and when they do... you know it because the message rocks the foundations of the establishment. A false prophet will be those who claim the title, and then intervene in your personal life saying “Yahuah told them to tell you things”! They want you to blindly follow what "they say" and try to elevate their opinion (and that is what it is, it is NOT Yahuah) above yours. Yahuah is perfectly able to be in a personal relationship with you, He does not tell His prophets to get involved in those personal relationships. True prophets speak to the assembly at large, not personal matters. They speak concerning where we err in our understanding, and judgment, and such things. A true prophet would never come to you and tell you Yahuah is telling them something to tell you about a personal matter. Yahuah has it covered, He doesn't need their help to talk to you personally... that is His job with the Ruach... No Prophet is Scripture earned that title being a personal councelor. Without exception, they are men who stand totally alone, come from outide the establishment, speak words never heard before, call out the body for disobedience and pagan worship, deliver a clear warning if they do not change their ways, give clear instruction on how to return to Yahuah. These men are met with extreme resistance as what the say rocks the foundations of the assembly, they are persecuted, rejected, and in most cases No Prophet is Scripture earned that title being a personal councelor. Without exception, they are men who stand totally alone, come from outide the establishment, speak words never heard before, call out the body for disobedience and pagan worship, deliver a clear warning if they do not change their ways, give clear instruction on how to return to Yahuah. These men are met with extreme resistance as what the say rocks the foundations of the assembly, they are persecuted, rejected, and in most cases put to death for what they have to say. Today that would be akin to character assasignation as we don’t literaly put Prophets to death anymore. We just attack their credibility not the message, we attack their character unrighteously, do whatever we can to silence them by discrediting the messenger so we don’t have to listen to the message. They show very unique understanding of Spiritual things, unique revelation never given to any other man in history, and they speak with authority. They are called out by Yahuah; who sends a Prophet to anoint them with oil, they do not seek out the anointing. Very very very few people are, or have ever been, "real" Prophets. True prophets do not claim that position, they are recognized by the body as a Prophet on a corporate scale. In otherwords, what they say has a dramatic effect on everyone at the same time, as Yahuah's Ruach drives their message home dividing soul and spirit with a Truth never known or heard before. My advice to anyone who "thinks" they are a Prophet? Yahuah does not change and neither does His methods. If you were not anointed with oil by a Prophet sent to you by Yahuah, and given that role by Yahuah personally; then My advice to anyone who "thinks" they are a Prophet? Yahuah does not change and neither does His methods. If you were not anointed with oil by a Prophet sent to you by Yahuah, and given that role by Yahuah personally; then you are not His Prophet... no matter how many times you have seemingly "prophesied" something and it came true. Even a broken clock is right twice a day! IF... Yahuah has sent a Prophet to anoint you into that role personally, I would never admit it. Let it be the people who bear witness to you, not the other way around. Trying to push yourself as a Prophet means you are not one. Yahuah will establish you over time, and it will be unavoidable, as the people will recognize it very clearly. As soon as YOU say you are a Prophet, you will be held to account for every single word that proceeds out of your mouth. That alone should scare the daylights out of anyone who truly believes in the Most High. The consequenses of being a false prophet are severe, and no false prophet will inherit the Kingdom. So... deny, deny, deny, and just serve the people. If you are... they will know it, they don't need you to tell them... so you must have the anointing of Yahuah AND the people, self appointment doesn’t count. _____________________________ Blessings, Rav Sha’ul
