The first is <span class=\"s1\">The Cooperate Prophetic Anointing Can Be Contagious<\/span>. Please read <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.bible.com\/en-GB\/bible\/116\/1SA.19.19-24\">1 Sam.19:19-24.<\/a> <!--more-->When there is a company of prophets, there is a cooperate dimension of prophesying that becomes effortless, sometimes even to God\u2019s enemies. There is no need to be afraid of your enemies, let them come, they will begin to prophesy in the Name of Jesus. <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.bible.com\/en-GB\/bible\/116\/1SA.19.23-24\">1 Sam.19:<sup>23-24<\/sup><\/a> \u201c<i>But on the way to Naioth in Ramah the Spirit of God came even upon Saul, and he, too, began to prophesy all the way to Naioth! He tore off his clothes and lay naked on the ground all day and all night, prophesying in the presence of Samuel. The people who were watching exclaimed, \u201cWhat? Is even Saul a prophet<\/i>?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Saul\u2019s own was even worse, a whole king tore off his clothes and lay naked on the ground all day and all night. People will hear you prophesy and say, is even this lady, this man prophesying but before they finish, they too will join in prophesying \u2013 \u2018<i>For the Lord is good! For the Lord is good! For the Lord is good and His mercies endure forever<\/i>!\u2019 The second thing about the prophetic we need to learn is <span class=\"s1\">The Prophetic Flows From Worship<\/span>. We find a classic example of this in <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.bible.com\/en-GB\/bible\/116\/2KI.3\">2 Kings 3<\/a>; Elisha was upset with the king of Israel because of his idolatry and [at a time] because of the king of Judah. <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.bible.com\/en-GB\/bible\/116\/2KI.3.15-16\">2 Kings 3:<sup>15-16<\/sup><\/a> \u201c<i>Now bring me someone who can play the harp.\u201d While the harp was being played, the power of the Lord came upon Elisha, and he said, \u201cThis is what the Lord says: This dry valley will be filled with pools of water!<\/i>\u201d You need to be conscious of the power of worship. As you come into the atmosphere of worship this season, the power of the Lord will come upon you and you will say clearly, \u2018this is what God is saying\u2019, in the Mighty Name of Jesus.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">For those who always want a New Testament example, I need you to know that God is Eternal.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>He has not changed \u2013 He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. So do not fall into the trap of compartmentalizing scriptures. However, I will give you a New Testament example. <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.bible.com\/en-GB\/bible\/116\/ACT.13.1-2\">Acts 13:<sup>1-2<\/sup> <\/a>\u201c<i>Among <\/i><span class=\"s1\"><b><i>the prophets<\/i><\/b><\/span><i> and teachers of the church at Antioch of Syria were Barnabas, Simeon (called \u201cthe black man\u201d), Lucius (from Cyrene), Manaen (the childhood companion of King Herod Antipas), and Saul. One day as these men were <\/i><span class=\"s1\"><b><i>worshiping<\/i><\/b><\/span><i> the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, \u201cAppoint Barnabas and Saul for the special work to which I have called them<\/i>.\u201d [emphasis added]. As they were worshipping the Lord, the prophetic broke out. You need to expect God to do what only He can do. You need to open your heart and give it your best shot, leaving nothing behind.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">However, you need to come to Jesus first before He can fill you to the overflowing. Which is what prophesying largely is all about. As you surrender and as we all abide in His presence, I pray that God will fill us to the overflowing with His Holy Spirit and we will speak His Words.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Prayer<\/b>: Father, my voice will be heard on high, in the Mighty Name of Jesus. Amen!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Acts 2:18 \u201cIn those days I will pour out my Spirit even on my servants\u2014men and women alike\u2014and they will prophesy [telling forth the divine counsels and predicting future events pertaining especially to God\u2019s kingdom].\u201d (NLT &amp; AMPC) Two things we need to understand about the prophetic as we begin to prophesy and walk in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[146,377,324,151,17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23501","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-acknowledge-god","category-blessings-of-god","category-god","category-prophetic","category-worship"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23501","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23501"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23501\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23561,"href":"https:\/\/gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23501\/revisions\/23561"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23501"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23501"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23501"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
