Are My Words For Others?

 

 

READER QUESTION:  ARE MY WORDS FOR OTHERS?

I record all my dreams and visions, but I do not know if they have application for the body of Christ or my personal life or for our church.

 

THE WORDS YOU HEAR REFLECT YOUR CALLING AND PURPOSE

That is a good question.  The Lord has many purposes for His Word, but it is always to PLANT it into the earth, to bring forth a harvest.  We can plant His Word through prayer, decree, prophesying, death to self, worship, poetry, music, art, etc, etc!

Isaiah 55:11 So shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.

The answer to knowing who your Words apply to is in knowing your calling and how you fit.  For instance He has called me a forerunner and a bridge and I have walked ahead preparing a way for others to follow.  By the very nature of the Words, they are prophetic.  I know that even my life is a prophetic sign, and so as much as I can I share out of its wealth, it is His Word to others. Therefore I know that the Words I receive are not just for me but for those who are following.

Isaiah 62:10 Go through, go through the gates; prepare you the way of the people; build up, build up the highway; gather out the stones; lift up a banner for the people.

Another very important part of my life is walking out intercessions.  That has been very private to me (thus far) and that rhema fills my journals that are not public.  So I try to share a careful balance in being transparent as much as I can, but not uncover what needs covered.  When I hear things regarding intercessions, the Lord shares His secrets to me, like I might be watching a sermon on Christian TV and the Lord tells me something about the minister, etc.  Then I pray and then the Lord shares more rhema about the same concept revealing it isn’t just about that one minister but many ministers, and thus it continues as a journey of hearing and praying.

Galatians 4:19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you,

Those who hear and see are also called to be His witnesses.  He has called us to share our testimony of what we see and hear Him doing and saying.  He has said that we have complete liberty to share our personal lives transparently as much or as little as we want, as it is a volunteer testimony and there is a cost involved.

2 Cor 9:7 AMP  Let each one [give] as he has made up his own mind and purposed in his heart, not reluctantly or sorrowfully or under compulsion, for God loves (He takes pleasure in, prizes above other things, and is unwilling to abandon or to do without) a cheerful (joyous, “prompt to do it”) giver [whose heart is in his giving].

 

Matthew 13:21 Yet has he not root in himself, but endures for a while: for when tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, immediately he is offended.

The Lord also gathers the prophetic into schools where they learn and grow from one another’s Words.  He has meant them to partner together in a body of kindred language and hearts.  And He gives each of His students parts and pieces that were meant to gather as a whole.  It is important for each to learn how to share their parts so that others can grow up together.

1 Corinthians 13:9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

In similar fashion, you may have a church that greatly encourages spiritual gifts and if the door is open for that, the Lord will establish your giftings there through people’s needs and your need to be established.

2 Corinthians 1:21 Now he who establishes us with you in Christ, and has anointed us, is God;
