How to know if you are called to be a Prophet

There is a lot of confusion concerning the call into prophetic ministry. Many Christians are searching for confirmation.

To walk worthy of your calling, you must first have faith in God's call on your life..

Once you are sure, you can count the cost and decide whether to embrace the spiritual battle that lies ahead. This rule does have a few exceptions. Some pastors are too self-conscious to notice the gifts and callings of people around them. However, if you are called to prophetic ministry, rest certain that your call will be discerned in due season. You are not required to make an announcement, demonstrate your prophetic abilities, or otherwise attempt to inform others.

In His time, God will make everything clear. Waiting for Him to disclose your gifts in public ministry is, in reality, part of the process, the course of Holy Spirit instruction, teaching, and practical experience that you will learn about through the pages of this book of life (experiences). So, do you feel called to prophetic ministry? Here are two key elements to consider when answering this question.

First and foremost, you may have heard a prophetic message declaring your destiny. That could very well have been a real word, but take the time to double-check. I’ve witnessed prophetic utterances lead sincere believers on spiritual goose hunts in search of gifts and callings that Jesus never bestowed. It’s heartbreaking to see people cling to a false word that they believe is authentic while missing God’s true calling for their lives.

Second, perhaps you routinely witness revelatory gifts developing in your ministry, such as words of wisdom, words of knowledge, and discerning of spirits. That gives you a sense of your role in the Kingdom. It’s actually a better sign that you’ve been called to prophetic ministry than a visiting prophet’s statement at the altar. If you are called to be a prophet, you will feel compelled to root out, tear down, destroy, throw down, build, and plant. If you’re called to prophetic ministry, you’ll practice the revelatory gifts on a regular basis, not only on special occasions. You’ll feel compelled to walk in prophetic gifts on a frequent basis.

God reveals in order to redeem

The enemy you know is less persuasive than the enemy you don’t know. In most cases, God displays himself to us in dreams or in visions. So whenever God discloses it to you. He is warning you to take a step and to act upon what he revealed. One thing you should perceive is that your enemy is not your neighbor, sister, colleagues, etc. We only have one enemy, which is the devil. Satan is very manipulative and if you aren’t prayerful enough, you’ll end up falling in to his traps. The day you’ll understand, you’ll avoid despising them.

Why You Find It Difficult to Recover Your Destiny

Have you ever felt like something precious was stolen from you—your purpose, your dreams, or even your sense of direction in life? Many people go through seasons where they feel lost, stuck, or unable to step into the future they desire. If you’ve been struggling to recover your destiny, there are often deeper reasons behind it. Let’s explore some spiritual and practical factors that might be making it hard for you to walk in your true calling, especially looking at the role of covenants and agreements. 1. Unresolved Spiritual Covenants and Agreements One major reason people struggle to recover their destiny is because of unseen spiritual agreements or covenants, knowingly or unknowingly entered into. These can include: Family covenants: Sometimes ancestors made pacts for protection, wealth, or power that now affect future generations. Personal agreements: Visiting spiritual practitioners, taking part in certain rituals, or even careless words (“I’ll never succeed”) can create spiritu...

Understanding Destiny Swapping: A Hidden Agenda Over Your Purpose (PART 1)

Have you ever felt like something is off in your life—like you're living a life that doesn’t belong to you? You're talented, passionate, and full of dreams, yet doors remain closed and progress is mysteriously delayed. If so, you may be dealing with something deeply spiritual and often hidden: destiny swapping. In this post, we’ll explore what destiny swapping is, how it happens, signs to look out for, and what you can do to get back and reclaim your God-given purpose. What Is Destiny Swapping? Destiny swapping is a spiritual manipulation where one person’s divine destiny is exchanged, stolen, or traded—often without their knowledge—for another person’s benefit. It happens when dark powers, witches, false prophets, or envious individuals manipulate or hijack the divine plan God originally intended for someone’s life. In simple terms, destiny swapping means you end up living a life that is not yours, while someone else is living the blessings, favor, or opportunities that were m...
