The prophet's dictionary guide to the supernatural

experiential exchanges that trigger the onset of the prophetic stream. Praises and surface prophetic encounters drift until worship ensues and produces the prophetic awareness that yields to the spirit of prophecy. The aim of prophetic chatter is to arouse sufficient spiritual momentum to release God’s revelations on the matters under discussion. Such occasions are helpful when the reason the Lord brings a group together is vague even though the gathering is clearly His will. Waiting on and nurturing the word of the Lord is done this way. Samuel’s taking Saul up to his prophetic high place for dinner before giving him the word of the Lord on his destiny is an example of this. 1 Samuel 9–11. 1101. Prophetic Circumstances—A) Gatherings of prophets and prophetic types where the prophet’s mantle, prophecies, and prophetic ministration of God are invoked.

Prophetic Clues—Slightly perceptible signals or observances that indicate the immediate onset or appearance of a fulfilled prophecy or prophetic activity. They can echo or confirm spiritual demonstrations of God that are in accordance with His will. Prophetic clues further ratify God’s disclosures and flag as authentic what He has divulged to the church, its ministers, or prophets. These may be outright events or subtle illuminations apparent only to those who bear witness to them or to those to whom they were to apply. Simon’s recognition of the Christ child illustrates this point. The prophecy of Isaiah 7:14 and Matthew 1:23 are other examples. 1104. Prophetic Company—A) A group or college of prophets who share a ministerial community, interact with and support each other, and submit to one
