Everyone can hear from God, but not everyone can perceive it
How does the revelatory gift operate? How can we grow with it? What do you do with it? What is a
prophetic gift?
The Bible has a lot to say about this
• When many people think of prophecy, they think of the prophets of the Old Testament
• That is more of a stereotype than what the Bible really says
“And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors
and teachers” (Ephesians 4:11).
“For all can prophesy one by one, that all may learn and all may be encouraged” (1 Corinthians
14:31).
All is all, and some is some. So what did Paul mean when he wrote these two verses?
• He was indicating there are different levels of the prophetic gift
• You may not be a prophet, but you can receive revelation from God
