“David, together with the commanders of the army, set apart some of the sons of Asaph, Heman and Jeduthun for the ministry of prophesying…” 1 Chronicles 25:1 (NIV)
The Bible tells us that the gift of prophecy is the most important gift in the Scriptures; it is the number one gift of the Spirit.
Prophecy is the only gift God says you should desire, even if you didn’t have any other one. Why? We are made by prophecy. The gift of prophecy is God’s material for building His house. Your life and ministry are constructed by the gift of prophecy; your future is designed by it. This means, the vision that God has in heaven about your life and the church is only brought to this earth through the gift of prophecy, and that gift is what inspires you to get in line with the vision.
Remember, God said to Moses, see that you build the sanctuary according to the vision that was shown to you; see that you do it accordingly. So that gift of prophecy tells you of your future: God’s plan for your life, and once you get a hold of it, you must keep saying it; don’t stop talking it, and walk in the light of it.
We are a people of prophecy; prophesy today. Hallelujah!
