Pentecost: The Spirit’s Voice

This last Sunday we wrapped up our Pentecost series with a teaching on prophecy. In 1 Corinthians 14 Paul says that we should eagerly desire the gifts of the Spirit, especially prophecy. So what is prophecy?
Prophecy is speaking saved. It’s looking at a world full of mess and choosing to see it the way God sees it.
We are made in the image of someone who spoke and a whole world came into existence…when we speak, worlds come into being. Our words have the power to either speak life and re-create or speak death and uncreate. Paul also says in 1 Corinthians 2v16 that we have the mind of Christ, His Spirit lives in us and allows us to discern His thoughts! That’s in your Bible!
When you begin to think on earth as it is in heaven, and you share what you hear, you are prophesying. Prophecy isn’t a crystal ball, tarot cards, or end times speculating; prophecy at its core is sharing the heart of God into a world without hope. It strengthens, encourages and comforts. It recreates.
God made you, and He intends to use what He made. Create space to listen, ask God to mingle His thoughts with yours, interpret everything you hear through the gospel, then take a risk and humbly share it in faith. This is how we follow the way of love.
