The prophet's handbook

dreams is similar to a seer except the information received from the spirit world is only received by dreams or in a dreamlike state. Historically this method of revelatory communication has been deemed the most unreliable form of spiritual reception. Prophetic dreams mix too easily with the dreamer’s emotions, personality, daily events, and life experiences, and can contaminate the message’s purity. However, the dream remains nonetheless a valid tool of prophetic reception used by the Lord from time to time. In the prophet, all the preceding faculties work together as one, operating either intermittently in an active prophetic environment or randomly in specific prophetic situations. What distinguishes the prophet is the officer’s interpretative, translation, and application ability that enhances his predictions and empowers his faculties. Together these render the prophet’s word more useful.
