"for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit."
In both the Old and New Testaments of the Bible, Prophets and Prophecy are mentioned many times. The gift of prophecy features prominently in the Scriptures. In contemporary times the prophetic ministry has taken a rather worrying dimension, hence the need to study it into
detail.
What Is Prophecy?
Prophecy is a supernatural gift conferred on a person by the Spirit of God, which gives the person the ability to speak the mind and counsel of God. 1 Cor. 14:3
Who Is A Prophet?
Generally, a prophet is one who operates in all the revelatory gifts (word of wisdom, word of knowledge and discerning of spirits) through visions, dreams and prophecy. He receives messages from the Lord and communicates these messages to the people. (Read : Acts 11: 27-28, 1 Cor 14:3, 24)
The prophetic message may come to:-
a. Tell God’s counsel concerning issues and situations
b. Foretell or predict future events
c. Comfort, edify, or encourage the Church
d. Convict and convince unbelievers
