The prophet's handbook

entity that administrates and executes the duties and responsibilities associated with a delegation, usually called a commission. Commissions are usually handed out by governments and monarchs. The fact that, even in today’s world, they must be petitioned for and approved by the government in the land reflects the fact that this practice still holds true. The word official is a key term that asserts order, permanence, perpetuity, and solidarity as the result of an agency arrangement. The attachment of the word official to anything means it is backed by a governing power authorized by a higher one to support, oversee, and police the activities of the agency. This role includes the guarantee of its agreements and the warranty of its services and provisions. To add this definition to the function of a commission sheds a great light on what the prophetics is and means to God. The word commission is used regularly in Scripture to designate those who are sent out on an errand for a specific purpose by one in authority. The distinctive feature of the commission over the errand-runner or routine messenger is the authority that accompanies the dispatch.

An official delegation’s service is much broader and carries infinitely more weight. It includes deputation to an assignment under an authority. Take a moment to study those words and you will see what is really meant by the term delegation. All of this information means prophets and the prophetic are ranking officials of the Lord’s government, representing it to the people rather than vice versa. God’s Divine Communications Medium The prophetic is a divine agency of the Godhead. It is how the Lord God keeps in contact with His world. Instead of telephones, headsets, wires, and satellites, the Lord uses dreams and visions and angelic visitations from the spiritual creatures assigned to the planet. As the Creator’s eternal communications medium, the prophetic doubles as an effective administrative
