Prophetic Directive
Speaker: Rev. Patrick Kelley
Originally Recorded: Oct 14, 2018
Prophetic Directive:
An official or authoritative instruction of that which is to come.
Romans 4:13-21
For the promise to Abraham and his offspring that he would be heir of the world did not come through the law but through the righteousness of faith. For if it is the adherents of the law who are to be the heirs, faith is null and the promise is void. For the law brings wrath, but where there is no law there is no transgression. That is why it depends on faith, in order that the promise may rest on grace and be guaranteed to all his offspring—not only to the adherent of the law but also to the one who shares the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all, as it is written, "I have made you the father of many nations"—in the presence of the God in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead and calls into existence the things that do not exist. In hope he believed against hope, that he should become the father of many nations, as he had been told, "So shall your offspring be." He did not weaken in faith when he considered his own body, which was as good as dead (since he was about a hundred years old), or when he considered the barrenness of Sarah's womb. No unbelief made him waver concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong in his faith as he gave glory to God, fully convinced that God was able to do what he had promised.
God has prophetic directives for your life in the same that God spoke prophetically to Abraham.
1 Corinthians 14:3
On the other hand, the one who prophesies speaks to people for their upbuilding and encouragement and consolation.
God is leading us into the fullness of the Spirit by encouraging us.
God’s Word will challenge everything you think you know.
All prophecy kick starts a process, a series of steps that takes you from where you are now to where you’re supposed to be. -Graham Cooke
Big Idea:
The Prophetic directive is simply a picture of what God sees in you.
His prophetic word paints a picture for us to see and to become.
