Get into the Prophetic Flow
• What is the Prophetic Realm? It is a dimension of God given to us by Him, to help us get
to know Him personally and to help us mature in Christ Jesus.
• The Our Father prayer is a clue to us: “Thy Kingdom come, they will be done on earth as
it is in heaven”…….God desires to fulfill His plan in the earth realm so that we might walk
in it and live it = releasing the Prophetic Realm. We are His instruments.
• We need to be connected with people who flow strongly in the prophetic ministry – Psalm
147:18
• When you move in the prophetic, a whole realm of authority and spiritual ability opens up
to you.
• One can move into prophetic music (playing prophetically, singing prophetically & dance
prophetically. One can prophecy unto God and the principalities and powers – tearing
down of strongholds.
• The Prophets of God walked in tremendous authority, Joshua had the authority to stop the
moon and the sun(Joshua 10:12-13). Moses walked in the authority to open the Red
Sea(Exodus 14:16).
Get into the Prophetic Flow
• It is important that we understand the concept of the 5 Fold
Ministry given to us in Eph 4:11-16.
• We need the 5 Fold Ministry to help us:
o Equip us for the Work of the Ministry
o Edify us as the Body of Christ
o Bring us into the Unity of the faith
o Grow us into the fullness of Christ
o Take us out of immaturity and instability and bad doctrine
o Make sure the body is feeding itself properly and growing in love
• The Prophetic Realm is an integral part of our growth process as believers.
• Eph 4:16 is very clear, it says we cant become all that God wants us to be
without the 5 Fold Ministry.
• Anointing flows from the head down – Aaron was anointed, the oil flowed
from his head all the way down to the skirts of his garments Psalm 133:2.
Released into a Prophetic Dimension
• OUR GOD SPEAKS!
• This is what separates Him from the idols men have worshipped
throughout time and around the world.
o Idols are dumb (cannot speak). Some are fashioned—carved, molded, or shaped—
with mouths, but they do not speak.
o Our God sees! Many idols have eyes, but they do not see. They are
inanimate(lifeless) and their form has been designed by the imaginations of men.
• God desires to communicate with His people. One method of
communication is through prophecy which includes hearing, speaking &
seeing – Psalm 40:5.
• Through the power of the Holy Spirit we are given the ability to hear and
see what God wants to release. (the 3 baptisms = Water, Holy Spirit & Fire
Matthew 3:11).
• Prophetic Activation must be develop in believers.
Prophetic Realms
• There are 3 Realms of Prophecy: Rev 19:10, 1 Cor 12:10&28
1) the gift of prophecy,
2) the spirit of prophecy, and
3) the ministry of the prophet.
• Some flow with the gift of prophecy, some flow under the spirit of
prophecy, while others flow in the ministry of the prophet.
• The spirit of prophecy will come into the room(normally during
worship) giving everyone the ability to prophesy.
• The gift of prophecy is determined as the person having the gift stirs
it up.
• The ministry of the prophet is when a person flows in a particular
office by the Spirit of God.
Spiritual Climate
• Before God does anything supernaturally, prophetic utterances must go forth.
• The spiritual climate of a church/city/region/country can hinder a prophecy coming into
fulfillment. Some spiritual climates are not conducive to signs & wonders = miracles.
• Mark 6:5-6 = Jesus could not do any mighty works in his own home town because of their
unbelief. The town’s spiritual climate was not conducive.
• Too many spirits of religion, tradition, unbelief, doubt, sin, perversion, darkness, and other
spirits are holding back the people/church/city/region/country to for fill the prophecy.
• Many times something has to be broken in the spirit realm before God can accomplish
what He desires to do. Look at the 10 plagues (Exodus 11:4-6).
• Some people never come out of certain areas of bondage because something has no
been broken in the spirit realm AND dealt with by the power of God – That’s why the
watchmen on the wall need sit watch, that’s why we need the Issachar tribe to arise as
they need to read the times and season in the Spirit, otherwise those people will remain in
bondage – Isaiah 14:17
Spiritual Climate
• Many times something has to be broken in the realm of the
spirit before God can bring people out of a certain area of
bondage into a new area of liberty.
• Some people never come out of a certain area because
something has not been “broken” in the spirit yet or dealt with
by the power of God.
• Until the power of God breaks that thing in the spirit those
people will remain in bondage – therefore we need to
prophetically decree and declare into every situation. Isaiah
14:17
God’s Prophetic Terminology –
certain words
• When God uses the words “suddenly” or “immediately” we need to
understand them in the light of their Biblical use.
• We might think “suddenly” is an unexpected surprise from God but the
truth is that 120 of Jesus followers including His apostles had been
faithfully praying, waiting and believing for the supernatural visitation of the
Holy Spirit – Acts 1:4&5
• Suddenly came about according to God’s timetable and man’s preparation
and placement. The apostles had 31/2 years of preparation and had
waited faithfully since Jesus ascension into heaven.
• Everything in the Kingdom starts with a seed! The concept of the seed is
very important for Kingdom minded/focused people! The seed must be
watered/tended to come into fruition/development – Mark 4:15 & Hab 2:15.
God’s Prophetic Terminology –
certain words
• The word “immediately” Jesus used when He compared the
establishment of the Kingdom of God to the planting of seed.
He spoke about the “immediate” harvest at the end of the age –
Mark 4:26-29. Yet the harvest only comes after the seed has
been planted and has gone through the process of becoming
ready to be harvested.
• What is called sudden and immediate is actually based on
progressive growth and preparation.
God’s Prophetic Terminology –
certain words
• The word “now” or “this day” in God’s timetable can mean anything from 1-
40 years. Look at King Saul’s personal prophecy he received from Prophet
Samuel, King Saul failed to obey and the “NOW” was 38 years later – 1
Sam 13:1-14.
• Prophetic Time Table:
Immediately : 1-3 years
Very soon : 1-10 years
Now or this day : 1-40 years
I will, without definite time designation, means God will act sometime in
the situation.
• As a prophetic people we need to understand God’s terminology.
Prophetic terms implying a particular
process
• Patience – tribulation is the soil in which patience grows – Rom 5:3
• Wisdom – God will allow certain circumstances and situations to arise which are beyond
your capacity to solve. This will force us to draw on God’s wisdom - Eph 3:10
• Love – we will be challenged to deal with the unloved, cast out, rejected, rude, proud,
arrogant etc…
• Faith – 3 kinds of faith: saving faith, the gift of faith and the spirit fruit of faith. The soil of
the fruit of faith is life brink of disaster in need of a miracle.
• Build, Expand, Increase – to build a deeper foundation must be laid for a greater
building. Teardown the old, dig up the old = new layer.
• Harvest – preparation, character development, cooperation, faith..
Noah’s obedience building the ark, King David had to faithfully tend to sheep, killing the lion
and the bear before he could face the giant.
Sometimes the preparation process will not make any sense to our natural
reasoning, however if we prepare the way, God will provide abundantly according to
His prophetic Word.
Prophetic terms implying a particular
process
• Victory – we cannot have victory without a battle! When we
hear words like “victorious, overcomer or more than a
conqueror” we can be assured of a fight, BUT also be confident
of victory!
• Restoration – when God says He will restore certain things to
us that means we will regain what we have lost.
Just before a vision, ministry or
prophetic promise is brought forth
into the visible, we go through our
darkest hour of labor or stress.
(A pregnant woman giving birth analogy)
Create a personal prophetic
atmosphere!
• A personal prophetic atmosphere is a necessity for a believer who desires
to live in Kingdom power and authority.
• Atmospheres are powerful both individually and corporately.
• Develop a lifestyle of revelation intentionally.
• Create AND maintain an atmosphere that hears from heaven.
• We must become diligent in creating the right atmospheres. As priests and
kings, we have a responsibility to establish an atmosphere in our homes
that honors God.
• You must create a hunger for your personal prophetic atmosphere. Hunger
is a gift, hunger is expressed by seeking. Hunger creates a commitment to
pursuit the things of Heaven – Psalm 16:7-11(describes a lifestyle that
values the presence of God)
• Allow your life to become a living tabernacle. A tabernacle is a building that
houses the Glory. We are called to be a living glory house, a breathing
temple filled with God’s presence.
Create a personal prophetic
atmosphere!
• Become a climate shifter!
• A prophetic atmosphere is presence based.
• Find music, sounds and videos that will unlock the presence of
God in you.
• There are times to sit in silence or quiet reflection BUT there are
lots of times that we need to be loud and vocal in our adoration
of our God.
• Prophetic people are presence people!
• God is asking His people to create prophetic atmospheres and
give birth to miraculous and sustained climates of revival!
Prophetic
Activation
Prophetic Activation Prayer
I call forth a prophetic atmosphere in my home.
I pray that I have eyes that can see and ears that
can hear. Lord, I thank you for hunger that unlocks
uncommon realms of seeking.
As I seek You, Lord, I pray I find you in an amazing
way in this season. I thank You, Lord that You
reveal Yourself to me when I pray, where to pray
and how to pray, in Jesus Mighty Name.
Prophetic Activation - Homework
Find a song that brings you into a place of worship and play that
in your private place, your prayer closet, your prayer room, your
safe place where you expect Abba Father to meet you.
Now sit before the Lord, waiting on Him for a thought, impression
or picture and write what you see.
Ask the Lord for a personal prophetic interpretation and
instruction. No matter how simple it is, maximize it. Remain in the
place of prayer until something is revealed to you.
Prayer is a dialogue, not a monologue. You seek and you listen.
