In today's live broadcast, Joseph Z explores the various prophetic spectrums.

Joseph references 1 Samuel 9:9 to establish the existence of two prophetic types: the "seer," derived from the Hebrew word "Roeh," and "Nabi." Additionally, Psalm 17:15 reveals a third prophetic form called "Chazah," which means to behold, while Ezekiel 12:27 introduces another form, "Chozeh," which means to see. He discusses these four prophetic functions that many people operate within, starting with Roeh (the visionary). Those who possess this gift are visionaries called to mobilize believers.

Next, Joseph explains the second prophetic gift, Nabi (inspiration). This gift relates to knowing what to do at any given moment. Following that is Chazah, which means to stare or gaze; it is an intuitive gift where God communicates through images in our minds. The last prophetic gift is Chozeh, meaning to lean forward and peer into the distance; this gift is inspired solely by the unction of the Holy Spirit.

Furthermore, Joseph clarifies that Roeh is a leadership ability or supernatural gift. He highlights the distinction between the office of the prophet and the gift of prophecy, explaining that an individual may excel in one or more of these gifts, although one may be more dominant than the others. He also notes that Roeh embodies the ability or anointing of the sons of Issachar, as mentioned in 1 Chronicles 12:32. This passage describes the sons of Issachar as those who understood the signs of the times, knew what to do about them, and were aligned with the right people to accomplish their goals. Joseph encourages us to spend time in God's word and in prayer to hear from Him. He desires to reveal Himself to us, but we must first seek Him earnestly.
