What does it mean to ‘prophesy’?
A prophecy is a picture of the future put into words. It is to speak into effect your future, or the future of another.
Every time we read aloud about the goodness that God longs to smother us with in the Bible, we are, in effect, prophesying, are we not?
And how about when we stand in faith, repeating what we believe to be God’s will for us? Are we not then prophesying as well?
I have been determined in my thinking that this is going to be a year of blessing for me. Lots of things have been thrown in my path already that have tried to make me doubt this, but I have done what i can to hold fast to my beliefs. I have also felt deep within me that, the time being short before the Lord’s return, this needs to be my year to find a willing and loving partner to walk the rest of the way with me. I have felt it, i have declared it in faith, and have stood behind it. I have been a prophet in my own life; now it is time to be a priest and a king, as well.
Now...it is still early in this calendar year. Nothing is yet for sure. But, i have faith.
I do not see financial freedom, but it is coming. I do not see the love of my life that God has for me, but she is coming. I see things getting worse and harder for me at work, but i believe that my patience and hard work and honesty will pay off in all areas of my life, my workplace included.
I feel myself growing closer to God. Not through anything that I am doing, but because, i suppose, a loving God is drawing me to Himself. And i feel that is making me blessed. You cannot know God, really know Him, and not be blessed because of it.
Good things are coming. Thank You, Lord, for Your faithfulness.
