Come On!! Well said!

Hi Kellee, to answer your questions. If you read the story of Elijah you’ll see how he got attacked. There are many other ways you get attacked as well. The minute you flow in any of the gifts of the spirit and you publicize it, you are a magnet for witches and warlocks. That’s why God has to call you into the prophetic office. You will be trained, by God, on how to fight the warfare. If you are not called you will have a hard time shaking them off you.
I don’t know if you can get a word back if it is stolen. It never happened to me, they attempted and failed. These people tried to connect with me for about a month following that event asking that I come to speak at other conferences plus others from the event wanted to connect with me. I cut all contacts with all of them as I don’t care about building a platform and I don’t have time to try and determine who sent the snake and who didn’t. Cut. You have to stay away from anything that you feel is associated with the warfare or the demonic realm. I think that would be the first step to getting back what was stolen. How do you hang out with robbers and expect to get and keep your stuff? I think this is really where most people fail and never reach destiny, they don’t cut off people that they know are bad (Samson). Real prophets who walk in the office don’t have a lot of friends because they pick up on people really easily. They may start out with a lot of friends but in the end after the cut, and cut, and cut, and another cut, there are not many left.
There is no fear in walking in this gift when it is a true gift from God because if you are only saying what God is saying you are, in essence, not responsible for your words. God is because the words are His. He’s backing you up because He said it, you didn’t. How could you be afraid then? When you should be afraid is when God never said it. Look how mad He got with Moses when He told him to speak to the rock and Moses struck it instead. Say what He says. (John 8:28-29) “…I do nothing on my own but say only what the Father taught me. And the one who sent me is with me—he has not deserted me. For I always do what pleases him.”

Hi Tisha, this is actually more common than you might think. Ask the Lord to show you how and where you can use your gift. The more you use it the better you will get. Even though you can’t in your own church I believe God can still send you elsewhere to use it while you still remain in your church. Just ask Him to show you. Accelerating a word. Hmmm I’m actually posting a word on Friday entitled “Delay vs Timing” I think this will help you! Blessings

Great questions Jane. Concerning dreams, remember that many prophecies in the bible came through dreams so this is a big way in which God speaks to people. The only thing I would advise is praying the prayer at the beginning of the post to ask God the source of the dream. A big clue with dreams is that when it is truly from God it will always have some message of redemption in it. He’s never going to give us some terrifying dream without telling us how to get out of the situation. He’s about redeeming people and reconciliation. If that component is missing from the dream, then it’s probably not God. Many are having really bad dreams about the state of the world that are actually coming from the spirit of fear. They believe the dreams are from the Lord but the truth is if God is not showing a way out, it’s not God. However, when God shows the way out we have to choose the way out in order to get a good outcome or what was shown in the dream will happen.
You will need to leave the prayer group. The witches in your group are not omniscient so they can’t know anything unless you tell them or they pick it up off your spirit when you enter the spiritual realm with them in prayer. They work off of information. You tell them nothing, they have nothing. They just have to guess or they ask you or one of your friends for the information. For them it’s like trying to hit a moving target in the dark. You know, like Samson God will show you the heart of someone but it’s really up to you to cut them off. You’ll have a hard time realizing any of your dreams and destiny staying connected to these spirits. Blessings

Hi Chevy, let me first say don’t count out the Catholics! Two of the most loving spirit filled believers that I know are Catholics. God has His people everywhere and not all Catholics are created equal. And we could really say that about any denomination. I believe your sister may very well be going through her process. Remember at the beginning I said prophets usually have a rough life/path. This is what God uses to shape and mold them. It would be odd that random strangers would say that to a child and then disappear. The question is, is there any proof that she has this gift or calling? At this age she should already be exhibiting signs of it. So, has she said anything in passing or just by joking and then you see it happen? Does she share any dreams with you or the family and have they happened? That’s how you know if it is true. If she hasn’t and you see her over the holidays just ask her general questions about what is happening around the world and see what she says. Then see if it happens. That’s how you’ll know.

Hi Angela, I’m sorry I don’t remember the name of it and I gave it away several years back. There are many of them who have converted to Christianity so I am sure you can probably find one with a Google search. Hope that helps.

Yes Matthew, the goal of the enemy in these false prophetic words that feed to the flesh is to give us “independence from God” and not to send us back to Jesus. Your questions are excellent and I’ll try to answer them…The Holy Spirit is God and He gives spiritual gifts but I don’t see how God, who is the creator, would allow a created being to use Him for evil. This is not possible. I think the enemy can create a counterfeit or fake gift but it will never be from the source of the Holy Spirit. I believe when he attempts to steal spiritual gifts, he can’t actually use them so he’s probably just delaying the working or operation of them in your life. If someone were to stay in the environment of the thief they may never see the manifestation of the spiritual gift because the enemy may be able to keep it at bay for a very long. This is gift, not destiny or purpose, I’m talking about. The only thing I believe the enemy can steal and use is possessions. It’s like owning land but you have squatters living on it. They are taking possession of it but they don’t own it. This I believe he can do with things, not spiritual gifts. In these cases we have to get strategy from God on how to get back what belongs to us.
A prophet, or any other Christian for that matter, can have multiple gifts. If you do a spiritual gifts test, you’re always going to find that you have about 5 gifts but there are generally 3 at the very top. You can flow in multiple giftings at the same time. Especially if you go after Jesus and not gifts. Let me explain, when you ask for the gift of prophecy and earnestly seek it God may give it to you because the bible tells us to earnestly covet the gifts (1 Cor. 12:31). However, someone who goes after Jesus will get what comes along with Jesus which is…everything! When He comes the substance of who He is comes along with Him.
I wrote a post about the timing of prophetic words here https://www.missionariesofprayer.org/2018/07/understanding-the-timing-of-prophetic-words-and-dreams-prophetic-series-part-5/
When we pray and we feel exhausted it is because we are actually engaging in warfare in the spirit. Your spirit man never gets tired and doesn’t require sleep. Much like any spiritual being, they don’t get tired. The part of you that feels exhaustion is your physical body. This is why it is very important for us as Christians to take care of our physical bodies because they enter into warfare as well in prayer. If you are not healthy you can get sick after intense spiritual warfare. You can go into deep prayer for days and then feel as if you could sleep forever afterwards because your physical body was involved in the prayer too. Even though you never left your couch. Take care of your body. Workout and eat properly as best as you can. I’m going to write a post about this in January. I think it is important for the body of Christ to know.
Concerning your assignment, it appears you need a new strategy from God on how to go about it. It is obvious the enemy knows this is an assignment for you and is waiting for you every time you try to do it. You have to get a new strategy from God. He’ll show you a way in that the enemy knows nothing about.
The enemy has been stealing a lot of dreams these days because God is actually talking a lot to His people in this season. You need to access the voice of God in another way. And then, at night you need to anoint your head with oil, bind the enemy from interfering with your dreams. When you wake up in the morning pray in the spirit and ask Him to bring to mind anything you may have missed.
Hope this helps

I’m sure you could! Remember the Jewish people put their menorah in the window so people can see it from the outside and I don’t do that my outward acknowledgement of the miracle is telling it publicly. So likewise you could go through the steps without the menorah. I think the heart posture is what counts more than anything else. It’s a “little late in the day” to get the supplies now for everyone but I think if you start by just saying the prayers and reflecting on the miracles you could be ready for next year with the menorah. Blessings

Amen! I have to tell about how I started as this is only my 4th year doing this. The first year I had no menorah and candles but after spending time reflecting on the miracles I decided I wanted to make it perfect the next year. Within the year I went to Israel and I thought what could be more perfect than a menorah from Israel for Hanukkah, so I bought one and brought it home. When it was time, I started putting the candles in and lighting them daily I realized that I ran out of places to put the candles before the days were over! I bought the wrong menorah! LOL Sigh. After frantically looking online to figure out what went wrong I realized there are 2 different menorahs. So I had to go buy one from that fancy Jewish store…you know the one (Walmart! LOL) I couldn’t order it from Amazon because I wouldn’t have it on time. So after getting the 9 prong menorah I then realized that I ran out of candles and was missing 2 candles for the last day because there were broken candles in the box which I discarded not realizing that I wouldn’t have enough candles!!! So I had to blow out the candles and reuse them on the last day. LOL (What a mess!) Then last year Hanukkah started a few days before Christmas so I started at home and then had to travel to my family’s house for Christmas with the menorah for the rest of the days. Just imagine the looks when I whip out the menorah and started lighting candles, LOL It was nothing short of “So what, you’re Jewish now?” LOL As I start thinking if I should even start explaining why I’m doing it. Then, NOBODY had matches!!! Have you ever tried lighting candles on an electric stove??? Oy Vey!! LOL So, this year should be my first year having a somewhat normal Hanukkah celebration. I’m saying all of this to let you know the only perfect Hanukkah is one that is coming from a pure heart. Blessings

That’s great June! The children will love it. My daughter was so excited this year when we started. She is 9 and this is the first year I told her I want her to share her own miracle every night. It is a very special time with the children. I’ve heard about the Christmas Star and I will be researching and writing about that as well. It’s on the 21st but Hanukkah ends on the 18th. So if you’re saying the days you’re missing you’ll just extend to the time of the Christmas star, I think that is beautiful! It will be another memorable thing for your children. Believe me, they won’t forget. My daughter reminded me of the wax that was everywhere from trying to light the candles on the electric stove last year! LOL Blessings and Happy Hanukkah!

Hi Matthew, the prayer says “Adonai our God”. Many people acknowledge that they need a Savior but fewer relinquish control and accept Him as Master and Lord. So, I guess it comes down to the heart of the person saying the prayer. Are they only looking for a Savior or are they also willing to accept Him as Master and Lord of their life? These are different roles of Jesus.

Hmmm, that is an interesting question. I’ve never done that before because it is a seasonal celebration that happens at a specific time of year. I guess you would have to ask God. Do you celebrate Christmas twice? Or Easter? What would be the purpose and motivation behind doing it twice?

Eating is forming a covenant. As we all know there are good covenants and bad ones. Jesus had communion with the disciples, that was eating. The disciples eating fish on the beach with the Lord after his resurrection or Jesus feeding the 5,000 is all good. The point is not that you are eating in the dream but who are you eating with. Who are you forming the covenant with? So then your people in dreams represent something – good or bad. So you need to interpret your own dream by saying what do these people represent? They are from your past, is this good or is it bad? What were they like? Their spirit that is. That’s how you know if it is good or bad. You can do a word study in the bible with people eating together and clearly see which ones were good and which ones were bad. The same with the dreams. Now if you don’t know who you are eating with in the dream and it was just eating, that cannot be good because some important information is being concealed and only the devil lives in darkness. Then that could be seen as the witchcraft. Hope this helps.

Yes, that’s why I said that this could have many different applications. Always remember what happened to the lady that went about trying to fix it on her own without seeking God. You need to pray about this if that’s what you believe it is. Handle it in prayer first, wait for an answer from the Lord and then go from there before saying anything to anyone including family members. In the end people were turning people in just to get the money. It came down to money. Just remember that.

Hi June, the prayer within this post is enough and you need to pray it every time you have these dreams. It appears that they already have access to you so there are some other things that you need to take care of. Dead people or people from the past can be familiar spirits here is a post that explains what this is and a prayer to cut the connection https://www.missionariesofprayer.org/2015/04/prayer-against-a-familiar-spirit-and-monitoring-spirits/. Since this is a chronic issue you may need to do a spiritual house cleaning as well and here is some information on this https://www.missionariesofprayer.org/2017/04/house-cleansing-prayer/ and then the final thing because this may be linked to a generational curse, here is a series on that https://www.missionariesofprayer.org/2012/09/blessings-curses-work/ We can pray for you but where these things are concerned you have to participate in your own deliverance because they are obviously attached to something you are doing or somewhere you are going or some things that are in your house so only you can cut the connections. Blessings

Yes, they usually become very hostile. Even if you are calm, this spirit of deception doesn’t want you questioning the person. Because remember there is a spirit there which is separate from the actual person. You can’t even have a discussion they are dismissive and unwilling to listen. A normal person would listen, take some time to reflect and examine what you said and then come back with a ration answer, reasoning or response. Even if you don’t agree in the end you can tell when someone listened and formulated an answer after carefully examining the facts.

Hi Grace, very good question. First, you have to be observant as I was in the dream. I was able to identify that those people were not the same without opening my mouth. If you have the gift of discerning of spirits you’ll pick it up right away but if you don’t it means you have to watch and pray until you are sure. The big clue is when you try to have a civil, FACT based conversation with someone and they can’t receive the facts. Usually it is because they are working off of their own set of facts because the problem with deception is they don’t know they are being deceived. Which you now need to be sure that their facts are actually false and show it to them. If they still refuse to accept it then you are not talking to someone that operating in their right mind. Please understand that you have to make sure that your own facts are facts, not opinions, evening news, Facebook memes, or 3rd party stories. Most of what is in the public is false, from both sides. And you have to be sure that you are not also operating from pride. With pride we always want to be right. If you are sure then you need to handle it like you are doing a demonic deliverance which is binding the spirit and casting out that spirit. It’s deliverance. Sometimes the spirit that they are under, as in the story of Elijah, is a territorial spirit. That means everyone in that area will think exactly the same way as that person. Now you are dealing with a larger entity that you can’t just bind and cast out. You would have to take the person completely out of the territory into a new area that is far away from that place, pray that the veil be removed from their eyes and then start having the conversation again. At that moment, they will easily accept the fact because they are not under that territorial spirit anymore. This happens alot which is why sometimes when people go on a vacation they can think clearer, come up with new ideas, see things in a different light…because that spirit that is on and possible in their household is not there. Hope this helps.

That’s exactly why I chose the image Nicola. I saw this on Facebook and I looked and saw the clock instantly and as I was about to scroll away a thought crossed my mind “What if there is actually more than one?” So I started looking more closely and when I saw the 2nd one I thought there could be more too. I didn’t say anything on purpose because I wanted to see how many people (even after reading the message) would actually take the time to look again…and question what they are being told!

Amen! It’s a sign of your maturity. Praise God for that. Ask the Lord if you should leave. If He says NO, then just keep your eyes open and watch what He reveals by keeping you there. Now when you go to church you HAVE to put on the armor of God before you enter that place. You wouldn’t want that spirit jumping on you. Blessings

Thank you for being honest. Many people are exactly as you are. I cried writing this from start to finish because I just imagined what it would be like to be God and have all of your children be ungrateful and dissatisfied after you gave them your everything, Jesus. It’s easy to be dissatisfied and always want better but we have to be grateful for what we have now. It’s easy for me to remain humble because of this ministry I get to see and hear what’s happening with people around the world and consider myself extremely blessed compared to others. I am convinced that God puts us through some bad situations so that when the blessings come we know how to be appreciative of it. i.e bad first marriages or having to take public transportation so that when the right spouse shows up we appreciate the person even more and we are grateful to have a car even if it is 10 years old! Do not despise small beginnings (Zech 4:10). Some things are just a stepping stone and a testing ground to see if we can be responsible with the little before we get the much. Pray about the job before you give it up. You also don’t want to start it and have a bad attitude either. Praying for you to have clarity. Love you.

Hi Lio, I’m discerning that you are having an issue with some in the prophetic community. According to Matthew 18:15-17 you need to take this issue to them and try to get it resolved. Otherwise, you will end up with a root of bitterness which will affect other areas of your life as well. I would hate to see that happen to you. Blessings.

Hello Beloved child, when we have bad dreams sometimes they are from God. How you know the difference is if there was a strategy given to overcome it. These are warning dreams and what you saw in the dream doesn’t necessarily have to happen. If there is no strategy to overcome it then it’s of the devil because he’s the only one that would leave you with a sense of hopelessness, then you need to rebuke it. With God there is always a redemptive tone. To your question it could be one of two things, it is possible the dream is not about that person but their spirit/what they signify and He’s telling you that you are operating in that same spirit when you turn into them. Or He could turn you into them so you could see and feel how they are emotionally. If you notice a change within yourself emotionally after you turn into them He’s making you aware of how they are feeling or what they are thinking. People and colors are very important. You should know that every color has a few different meaning. There is no hard rule to colors. The color the person is wearing shows who they are in that moment. For example, green can mean growth, new beginning or newness but it can also mean operating in flesh or the person is a new believer in Christ. Blue is the color of revelation which is generally good but if you see this combined with a demon or demonic symbols like alligators or octopus then He’s warning you that there is some demonic revelation going on. Black is generally sin or the demonic but it can also mean something elegant, power and might. White is generally purity but if the person wearing it is judgemental and degrading others in the dream God is saying this is a religious spirit. So the context of how the colors appear, who is wearing it, how you felt emotionally in the dream and what the dream is about will tell the story and help with the interpretation. In the end it will always be cohesive, if there is one thing off or can’t be interpreted then there is something you’re missing in the picture. At the end of the day only the interpretation that resonates with your spirit as the truth is the right one. No matter how good the person is that’s interpreting it, if you still feel that you didn’t get the right interpretation then it is wrong. UNLESS, you are rebelling because it revealed something to you that you didn’t want to hear. Hence, taking it to God in prayer is very important because He’ll tell you if it was true or not. Hope this helps.

Thank you for sharing! I also appreciate the fact that you shared your process of how you came up with the interpretation. I think most people believe the interpretation will just drop into their lap after prayer not realizing that sometimes it will require prayer, meditating on scripture, research and reading many resources before the correct interpretation will come. And sometimes after 30 minutes you’re still only left with 1/2 the interpretation and more time is needed to get the rest of it.
