Warring with your Prophetic Word
Have you ever been discouraged because a prophecy has not yet come to pass in your life? Have you ever doubted God's promises for you? I'm sure everyone has at some point in their life. I know I have. Sometimes years and years go by and the prophetic word did still not come to pass.
Some prophetic words come to pass easily and quickly but many require us to do something on our part. One of the things students learn at the Samuel Elijah Prophetic College is that we often must “war” with our prophetic words. What does this mean? 1 Timothy 1:18-19 says “This charge I entrust to you, Timothy, my child, in accordance with the prophecies previously made about you, that by them you may wage good warfare, holding faith and a good conscience”.
Here are three things we must do to war with a prophetic word:
First, we must have faith that the prophetic word is true. We must believe it to receive it. If we doubt God or think I can’t see that happening, then we are fighting against what God wants to do in our lives. We are giving Satan access. If our spirit bears witness to the prophetic word when it was spoken and it is in line with the Word of God, then it is a true word from God and we need to believe it is true.
Next, we must read the prophetic word carefully and make sure we are meeting the conditions. In many cases, the conditions are clear. For example, one time I got a prophetic word saying that as I spent time in the presence of God, limitations would be removed from my life. The condition was to spend time in the presence of God. If I didn’t do that, then limitations would not be removed. For prophetic words where the condition is not clear, we must pray for clarity. Sometimes the condition is implied. When someone receives a prophetic word that they will be married, they must be on the lookout for their future wife or husband and work on changing their mindset to a marriage mindset or that word won’t come to pass.
Lastly, we must not get discouraged by the process. Apostle Ricci, headmaster of the Samuel Elijah Prophetic College sometimes says “With much preparation, there is much use”. The greater the prophecy, the more difficult the process. God needs to work on our character. He needs to prune us and tweak us in order to prepare us for our destiny. The enemy doesn’t want our destinies to be fulfilled. We must press through times of testing and not lose faith in God and his promises. We could do this by reviewing our prophetic words on a regular basis. When we do that, we will get encouraged and stay focused. It’s also important to stay strong in our relationship with God and let him help us in times of difficulty.
If you ever find yourself discouraged and disappointed that your prophecies have not been fulfilled, remember to war with your word and not lose faith. God bless!

An Invitation to Prophetic Writing
Do you love to write? Are you always taking notes, recording events or journaling your thoughts? Do you write poetry, songs or other creative styles of writing? If you answered yes to one or more of these questions, then God may be calling you to prophetic writing.
Now you may be thinking, What is prophetic writing? Is this a new fad in the Christian world? No it is not new, but a concept found in antiquity referred to as scribes. However, a Prophetic scribe will be writing the Rhema word of the Lord. It's actually a pretty simple concept. Just as a Holy Spirit filled believer can pray, dance, sing or draw prophetically, they can also write prophetically. Prophetic writing is different from writing in the natural. It is not planning and writing an essay for a class, which uses the mind and intellect. Nor is it writing a story or novel. Prophetic writing is when the Holy Spirit gives you the words to write and the writing just "flows". God could speak to you personally or he could give you a message for someone else.
Here's how it works. First, you must desire for God to use you that way. You must be open to the idea that God could speak to you through writing. Psalm 45:1 “My heart overflows with a goodly theme; I address my psalm to a King. My tongue is like the pen of a ready writer.”
Next, prepare yourself. Gather your writing materials and find a quiet spot to write so you won't be distracted. Putting on worship music is another option. Then ask God to speak to you. You may also want to pray in your heavenly language. Let Him guide your pen or your fingers (if you are typing). His words will flow out through writing!
If you enjoy writing, then I encourage you to start a journal for prophetic writing and write in it on a regular basis, whether it be daily, weekly, bi weekly or even monthly. Make this part of your devotional time. Let God speak to you through writing. See if you could find any common themes throughout your journal. These may be things God is trying to communicate to you at the time.
