In Red Church today, Joseph Z highlights various types of prophetic gifts and explains how to gain prophetic clarity. He discusses ways to activate our gifts while emphasizing the importance of humility in serving God and others.

Joseph shares that Jesus wants us to grow in the fullness of the gospel, encouraging us to be cross-centered because we operate in the finished work of Jesus. He outlines four types of prophecy: Roeh (the visionary or mobilization gift), Nabi (the herald, trumpet, or bubbling gift), Chazah (to gaze or peer), and Chozeh (to lean forward and peer into the future). He clarifies that a person can operate in one or two of these gifts, but will have either a major or minor role.

He explains that a revelation must first be interpreted before it can be applied for prophetic clarity. He recounts the story of King Zedekiah, whose fate was revealed through Ezekiel and Jeremiah. While Ezekiel prophesied that Zedekiah would not see Babylon, Jeremiah said he would live his days and die in Babylon. These prophecies seemed incorrect and controversial until they came true. Zedekiah was captured, his eyes gouged out, and he was taken to Babylon, where he spent his remaining days.

Joseph emphasizes that reading the Bible regularly activates our gifts, warning against going beyond what is written when using them. He reminds us that our revelations and experiences are not the absolute truth; only God's word is. He explains that demons and dark forces feed on our attention, urging us not to give in to them because greater is He in us than He in the world. He also warns against obsession with conspiracies, as it can lead us away from faith and cause us to stray.

He further stresses the importance of humility in our service to God and others, encouraging us to let go of offense, which the devil uses to trap us in unforgiveness. He predicts four years of redemptive instability and assures us that the Lord will preserve us just as He preserved Noah and his family during the flood. He motivates us to keep preaching the gospel and to influence everything around us with passion during this season.
