PROPHETS ARE NOT ENTERTAINERS!

From the True Vine Communion Ministries for all Nations prophecy archives, Evangelist James Ian Stephen ushered the believers into the message of the day titled “Prophets are not entertainers!” He said that as we celebrate the greatest prophecy of all times which is the birth of Jesus Christ, let us remember that prophecy has never had its origin in the will of men (2Peter 1:20-21) When a prophet talks, take his words seriously never doubt it. 

A prophet has no Nation- he is there to proclaim God’s message; the best example is prophet Isaiah who prophesied the birth of Christ to which every race celebrates now. The evangelist asserted that do not joke with a prophet of God for prophets are not there to entertain but speak the will of God! When a prophet speaks the humble are saved and the stubborn are destroyed therefore give a keen ear to every word a prophet says for it is God speaking through them. (Ezekiel 7:1-5) Giving breath to this message the evangelist referred to the book of 2Kings 5:20-27 “…But Elisha said to him, “Was not my spirit with you when the man got down from his chariot to meet you? Is this the time to take money or to accept clothes olive groves, vine yards flock herds or menservants and maidservants…” 

The evangelist warned and reminded the servants of God who are in Gehazi’s position today to always consult the prophets of God before taking any step; more so in serving God because it is the prophet’s obligation to guide every servant of God regardless of their title and age to God’s will. Evangelist James Ian Stephen lamented that today the story is different, many servants of God have stubbornly and arrogantly refused to consult the prophets about the will of God and in this way they themselves have misled many children of God off  God’s will. “The same leprosy that clung on Gehazi years ago is eating up the church and the church leaders today,” exclaimed the Evangelist. The love for money is so rampant that many church leaders are using every decoy and trap to acquire wealth yet this is not what the spirit of the Lord says. Remember freely we were given, freely we have to give; freely did God give us His one and only Son and freely we ought to spread His good news to others.

Believer as you value and celebrate the birth of Jesus, remember His birth was a prophecy encrypted in the Spirit. Therefore, before you buy fine clothes and good food, seek first the spirit of God to guide you for the spirit gives life. 

Merry Christmas!
