5 Prophecies for Restoration

 March 31, 2011 at 11:27pm



I wanted to write down several "messages of Prophecies" we have received recently in order to help establish a guide for prayer and to encourage all believers, not just those who attend @rcauburn that we serve a God who still speaks.



In the Christian New Testament, prophecy is referred to as one of the Spiritual gifts given by the indwelling Holy Spirit. From this, many Christians believe that the gift of prophecy is the supernatural ability to receive and convey a message from God Jesus Christ. The purpose of the message may be to "edify, exhort and comfort" the members of the Church or warn of coming change or danger. Such messages typically involve divine inspiration, interpretation, or revelation of conditioned events to come.In this context, not all prophecies contain predictions about the future. The Apostle Paul also teaches in First Corinthians that prophecy is for the benefit of the whole Church and not just the individual exercising the gift.[1 Cor. 14:22] the task of prophetic (christian) ministry is to nurture, nourish and evoke a consciousness and perception alternative to the reality we see in the flesh of the dominant culture around us.While a word given does not always make it automatic, but it is Gods way of coming into agreement with men. As in "if u will be faithful to my commands- this will be your reward." Pentecostals believe prophecy and certain other gifts are once again being given to Christians. The Charismatic Movement, which began to move into mainline denominations, also accepts Spiritual gifts like "speaking in tongues" and new forms of prophecy.



Many evangelical churches make room for prophecy, but it is generally accepted that all prophecy should be tested against Scripture to determine if God is truly its Source (since Holy Scripture warns about false Christs who would rise up to deceive many)act 1:8 but you shall receive power after the holy spirit



If you have never seen a prophetic word given in person, I encourage you to go to my youtube page http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5yyg2ivNjE&feature=related to see and hear the prophecy concerning the birth of our daughter.



Recently while in service with Pastor Darlene Bishop, Judy Jacobs we recieved a few words.



1. Nicoles singing ministry would be revived and while she may have seemed forgotten about and no longer using that ministry as much outside of rcauburn it would be brought back.



2. Restoration church would find favor with people of influence who would financially invest the Kingdom. It seemed as though its people that are not presently attending rcauburn and when they first attend they may be stand offish or skeptical but would be moved by the move of the Holy Spirit, their heart and life changed and would be generous in helping us reach a new level of fullfilling Gods call and vision for Rc to help the hurting, encourage families, strengthen marriages, invest in other churchplants and missions.



3. Was a word to encourage us to step out in faith and whatever we are believing for (the desire to see our church grow, reach more people, obtain a new building) that He would be our bottom.( He has got our backside,lol.) That we would not fail.



4. I received a 2nd conformation of a word given before we started Rc that the ministry would be known for physical healings taking place.



5. Lastly, we received a word (before we started the church) that revival would come to Rc much like "a bag of popcorn" by a minister in South Carolina. That although it has a time before anything happens, we would start to see a few miracles happen and in a short burst we would experience an explosion of miracles.



This is only to brag on the goodnes of God, not man.It is in no way intended to elevate Rc as special. All churches have a destiny and God desires to move in all churches. Many times the leadership of a church knows about certain words given concerning the future of the church, but we keep them to ourselves out of embarresment or fear that they may not come to pass. This is just a way to acknowledge the present day move of God and declare and decree that we desire His will for Rc to come to pass.
