“The true prophetic ministry will ask the Lord to restrict some of the things that are being shown prophetically so their revelation is much more focused on Jesus”. This quote encapsulates the core belief of Minist\u00e9rio Palavra Prof\u00e9tica.
Minist\u00e9rio Palavra Prof\u00e9tica stands as a beacon of faith. It is located on Rua Vereador Pedro Bueno de Oliveira. Here the emphasis is on establishing a foundation of Jesus Christ. This occurs within the church.
According to the Minist\u00e9rio Palavra Prof\u00e9tica doctrine prophets are essential. They help to perfect the saints. This helps with the work of the ministry. It aids the edification of the body of Christ. All should reach the unity of faith. They should also strive for the knowledge of the Son of God.
The primary function of Minist\u00e9rio Palavra Prof\u00e9tica involves transformation. It involves inner transformation. Christ must become our life. The focus remains on perfecting and maturing believers.
Minist\u00e9rio Palavra Prof\u00e9tica emphasizes walking with God. Believers need to understand how to go within. This means going inside their own hearts. It is here that Jesus sits on His throne as King. As His glory is contemplated it transforms us. We should become like Jesus allowing Him to live through us. The Kingdom of God is an interior reality. Too much focus in modern churches is external. External things appeal to the carnal nature.
True prophecy should testify about Jesus. It should bring a revelation of who He is. This will lead us to a more intimate relationship with Him. True prophets impart an inner revelation of Christ. Ministers who only give personal prophecies are not prophets.
Minist\u00e9rio Palavra Prof\u00e9tica underscores the importance of scripture. It teaches that we should not follow ministries and teachings of individuals over God’s word. The Holy Spirit provided a reliable model for the prophetic gift. We should not be confused.
John the Apostle serves as an example. He doesn’t call himself a prophet. He refers to himself as a servant or brother. John’s encounter is on par with Old Testament prophets like Daniel. His revelation brings a comprehension of Jesus Christ.
Determining true from false prophecy requires examining the New Testament. Here the Holy Spirit defines the prophetic ministry. John had an intimate relationship with Jesus. The love of God overflowed from him. He had a powerful revelation of Jesus as King and Judge. If our hearts are not aligned with God we will prophesy our will.
Some ministries are considered prophetic. Yet they do not believe in scriptures. These scriptures show that God is still a judge. He judges with justice. Because they reject the truth they believe the lie. The lie becomes truth. They ignore Jesus’ prophecies. They also ignore John’s prophecies. These people exemplify how a prophet should be. They base it on their will instead of Jesus’ life.
It’s difficult to hear God accurately if we disagree with scripture. For example we may not want to believe that God releases prophetic words of discipline. Then we cannot hear God adequately. We will filter everything through this lens. We won’t hear Him. We may think Satan is speaking instead of God.
Jesus demonstrated how His five ministerial gifts should operate. When He ascended He gave the same gifts to other leaders. If we are not aligned with Jesus our revelation won’t be pure.
Some ministries use only the gift of prophecy to understand the prophetic ministry. These ministries think they understand God’s love. But it’s a humanistic love. God’s love tells the truth. Humanistic love tells people what they want to hear.
Minist\u00e9rio Palavra Prof\u00e9tica teaches the story of Balaam. Balaam heard it was okay to go. He listened to God according to his own will. Balaam wanted power and riches. The Lord was angry. God saw that Balaam disconnected from the true word. The prophetic ministry prophesied revival and blessing. The Lord tried to warn of COVID-19. The prophets couldn’t hear it.
Minist\u00e9rio Palavra Prof\u00e9tica urges people to commit to truth. We must want His truth whether we like it or not.
So here at Minist\u00e9rio Palavra Prof\u00e9tica may we choose to follow the path of truth.
