GOD IS MAKING A TRADE WITH US THIS YEAR: OUR MIND FOR HIS, SO WE CAN BRING GOD'S BLUEPRINT OF THE FUTURE ONTO THE EARTH - CHARLIE SHAMP

The True Purpose Of The Prophetic On The Earth

It has always been in the secret place of His presence that I have heard the Lord and experienced the power of true transformation. The Lord is always speaking, but sometimes you find yourself in a place where you know the message you are receiving is not just for you but is to be released to the Body of Christ across the globe. That is why I am thankful for platforms and forums like The Elijah List that allow the prophetic voice of the prophets to speak and decree a "thus saith the Lord" for all those who have an ear to hear.

If there is one thing that I have learned about the Lord, it is that He is a God of mysteries and secrets. The beautiful thing is that He longs to reveal these secret treasures to those who seek Him. His mysteries are literally wrapped up in His glory, and as we look for Him our very identity as kings in the Kingdom are revealed not just in Heaven but here in the Earth as well. And it is of great importance to discern new seasons in our lives so that we can move forward in our callings. God will shift things, and if we are to go higher in Him, we must discern these shifts and pull into a greater place of prayer to see them come to pass.

We must remember being alone in prayer isn't always about isolation. Sometimes God uses "alone" for our transformation! That is why the secret place of prayer may seem lonely at times, where minutes turn into hours of waiting in silence for God to come and speak a clear and direct word, but when He comes the impact is so empowering that your life is changed forever. It was the great author Mark Twain that once said, "You cannot depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus." Prayer brings our spiritual eyes into focus to see with the imagination of God and create what we see. This is the true purpose of the prophetic to have the ability to co-create with God through words. (Photo via Freeimages)
