  • 00:00:01.040 --> 00:00:01.050
  • Prophecy is often misunderstood.
  • 00:00:01.050 --> 00:00:02.110
  • The Bible clearly tells us that all can prophesy
  • 00:00:02.140 --> 00:00:05.170
  • so that we may encourage others.
  • 00:00:05.200 --> 00:00:07.150
  • With practice, we can all prophesy
  • 00:00:07.180 --> 00:00:09.060
  • because we can all hear God.
  • 00:00:09.090 --> 00:00:11.060
  • Join my pastor, Robert Morris,
  • 00:00:11.090 --> 00:00:12.290
  • as he clarifies the role of prophecy in our lives.
  • 00:00:13.020 --> 00:00:16.000
  • 00:00:16.030 --> 00:00:30.160
  • PASTOR ROBERT MORRIS: Turn to two passages of scripture
  • 00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:34.020
  • and if you only want to do one, you can choose one.
  • 00:00:34.050 --> 00:00:36.140
  • Either one is fine with me.
  • 00:00:36.170 --> 00:00:37.260
  • Numbers 11, or I Corinthians 14.
  • 00:00:37.290 --> 00:00:42.210
  • So, if you want to put a marker, we'll start at Numbers 11
  • 00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:46.210
  • and then we'll get over to I Corinthians 14
  • 00:00:46.240 --> 00:00:49.000
  • in a moment and again,
  • 00:00:49.030 --> 00:00:51.080
  • the title of this series is: "Frequency: Tune In, Hear God",
  • 00:00:51.110 --> 00:00:56.120
  • and the title of the message this week is: "I'm a Prophet",
  • 00:00:56.150 --> 00:01:01.120
  • and I'm going to show you the scripture in a moment
  • 00:01:01.150 --> 00:01:03.240
  • that you can all prophesy and that's what the Bible says.
  • 00:01:03.270 --> 00:01:08.220
  • So, let's go back here, Numbers 11.
  • 00:01:08.250 --> 00:01:11.220
  • This is right after Moses said to God the prayer,
  • 00:01:11.250 --> 00:01:16.280
  • what I call the prayer of ever burned out pastor,
  • 00:01:17.010 --> 00:01:20.060
  • if you love me, kill me. That's what was his prayer.
  • 00:01:20.090 --> 00:01:23.020
  • [laughter]
  • 00:01:23.050 --> 00:01:24.090
  • And God said, "You need help. You need some elders."
  • 00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:27.000
  • So, this is the first time we have elders
  • 00:01:27.030 --> 00:01:28.190
  • coming in to play in the congregation of Israel
  • 00:01:28.220 --> 00:01:31.110
  • and so that happens and then here's what he says,
  • 00:01:31.140 --> 00:01:33.280
  • Numbers 11:24.
  • 00:01:34.010 --> 00:01:36.180
  • "So, Moses wen out and told the people the words of the Lord.
  • 00:01:36.210 --> 00:01:40.010
  • 'I was to set in elders.'
  • 00:01:40.040 --> 00:01:41.250
  • And he gathered the 70 men of the elders of the people
  • 00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:44.230
  • and placed them around the tabernacle.
  • 00:01:44.260 --> 00:01:46.290
  • Then the Lord came down in the cloud and spoke to him."
  • 00:01:47.020 --> 00:01:52.120
  • Again, I just want you to notice, God speaks to people.
  • 00:01:52.150 --> 00:01:54.290
  • It's all through scripture.
  • 00:01:55.020 --> 00:01:56.170
  • "And God, again, is the subject of this sentence,
  • 00:01:56.200 --> 00:01:59.160
  • took of the spirit that was upon him, Moses,
  • 00:01:59.190 --> 00:02:03.130
  • and placed the same upon the 70 elders."
  • 00:02:03.160 --> 00:02:07.100
  • By the way, that's when you have problems in the church,
  • 00:02:07.130 --> 00:02:09.190
  • is when an elder has a different spirit
  • 00:02:09.220 --> 00:02:12.000
  • than the pastor. That's a problem.
  • 00:02:12.030 --> 00:02:13.100
  • But God came and put the same spirit on the elders.
  • 00:02:13.130 --> 00:02:16.150
  • "And it happened when the Spirit rested upon them
  • 00:02:16.180 --> 00:02:20.000
  • that the prophesied although they never did so again."
  • 00:02:20.030 --> 00:02:27.110
  • It's very important, when the Spirit rested,
  • 00:02:27.140 --> 00:02:30.160
  • the word rested, on them, they prophesied,
  • 00:02:30.190 --> 00:02:33.000
  • although they never did so again.
  • 00:02:33.030 --> 00:02:34.070
  • So, we'll come back to that.
  • 00:02:34.100 --> 00:02:36.070
  • "But two men had remained in the camp.
  • 00:02:36.100 --> 00:02:39.030
  • The name of the one was Eldad
  • 00:02:39.060 --> 00:02:41.070
  • and the name of the other Medad",
  • 00:02:41.100 --> 00:02:43.000
  • and they had a brother named Yodad.
  • 00:02:43.030 --> 00:02:45.090
  • [laughter]
  • 00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:51.040
  • I just could not resist.
  • 00:02:51.070 --> 00:02:54.250
  • Okay, "and the spirit rested upon them."
  • 00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:58.270
  • That's the two in the camp.
  • 00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:01.010
  • Now, they were among those listed,
  • 00:03:01.040 --> 00:03:02.220
  • they were among the 70,
  • 00:03:02.250 --> 00:03:04.140
  • but who had not gone out to the tabernacle,
  • 00:03:04.170 --> 00:03:06.190
  • yet they prophesied in the camp.
  • 00:03:06.220 --> 00:03:09.090
  • And a young man ran and told Moses and said,
  • 00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:11.220
  • "Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp."
  • 00:03:11.250 --> 00:03:15.070
  • So, Joshua, the son of Nun, Moses's assistant,
  • 00:03:15.100 --> 00:03:19.030
  • one of his choice men answered and said,
  • 00:03:19.060 --> 00:03:21.000
  • "Moses, my lord, forbid them."
  • 00:03:21.030 --> 00:03:23.030
  • So, Joshua says, "Forbid them to prophesy."
  • 00:03:23.060 --> 00:03:25.260
  • Then Moses said, "Are you zealous for my sake?"
  • 00:03:25.290 --> 00:03:28.040
  • Now, watch this statement.
  • 00:03:28.070 --> 00:03:30.080
  • "Oh, that all the Lord's people were prophets and that the Lord
  • 00:03:30.110 --> 00:03:36.100
  • would put His spirit upon them."
  • 00:03:36.130 --> 00:03:40.060
  • Okay, three points about us being prophets.
  • 00:03:40.090 --> 00:03:44.010
  • Here's number one: All can prophesy.
  • 00:03:44.040 --> 00:03:48.120
  • All can prophesy.
  • 00:03:48.150 --> 00:03:49.190
  • Look at verse 29 again, of Numbers 11.
  • 00:03:49.220 --> 00:03:52.070
  • Moses said, "Oh, that all, I wish,
  • 00:03:52.100 --> 00:03:56.070
  • I pray that all the Lord's people were prophets
  • 00:03:56.100 --> 00:03:59.160
  • and that the Lord would put His spirit upon them."
  • 00:03:59.190 --> 00:04:03.000
  • All of them. All of God's people.
  • 00:04:03.030 --> 00:04:05.230
  • Wouldn't it be great if God put His spirit
  • 00:04:05.260 --> 00:04:10.260
  • on all of His people?
  • 00:04:10.290 --> 00:04:12.260
  • Because when God's spirit came on them, what did they do?
  • 00:04:12.290 --> 00:04:16.170
  • They prophesied.
  • 00:04:16.200 --> 00:04:18.050
  • Acts 2:16.
  • 00:04:18.080 --> 00:04:20.090
  • This is what was spoken by the prophet, Joel.
  • 00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:22.190
  • This is Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit came,
  • 00:04:22.220 --> 00:04:25.030
  • "and it shall come to past in the last days,
  • 00:04:25.060 --> 00:04:26.270
  • says God that I will pour out My spirit on,"
  • 00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:32.010
  • what's that word?
  • 00:04:32.040 --> 00:04:33.120
  • "...all flesh.
  • 00:04:33.150 --> 00:04:37.030
  • You sons and your daughters."
  • 00:04:37.060 --> 00:04:39.260
  • Okay, that's everybody.
  • 00:04:39.290 --> 00:04:42.050
  • You're one or the other.
  • 00:04:42.080 --> 00:04:44.160
  • You're either a son or you're a daughter,
  • 00:04:44.190 --> 00:04:46.180
  • shall prophesy.
  • 00:04:46.210 --> 00:04:48.180
  • "Your young men shall see visions,
  • 00:04:48.210 --> 00:04:49.250
  • your old men shall dream dreams and on My men servants,"
  • 00:04:49.280 --> 00:04:54.230
  • servants who are men,
  • 00:04:54.260 --> 00:04:56.160
  • "and My maid servants," servants who are women.
  • 00:04:56.190 --> 00:04:59.140
  • Again, let me explain, that's everybody.
  • 00:04:59.170 --> 00:05:02.190
  • "I will pour out My spirit in those days
  • 00:05:02.220 --> 00:05:05.210
  • and they shall prophesy."
  • 00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:09.010
  • And then in I Corinthians 14, if you're over there or save
  • 00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:11.250
  • that as a place, verse 31, "For you can all prophesy."
  • 00:05:11.280 --> 00:05:18.180
  • There it is right there in the Bible.
  • 00:05:18.210 --> 00:05:20.210
  • "You can all prophesy,
  • 00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:22.290
  • one by one, that all may learn and that all may be encouraged."
  • 00:05:23.020 --> 00:05:27.040
  • All. All can prophesy.
  • 00:05:27.070 --> 00:05:28.260
  • And look at the words you can.
  • 00:05:28.290 --> 00:05:31.070
  • You can.
  • 00:05:31.100 --> 00:05:33.100
  • So, God says, "You can prophesy."
  • 00:05:33.130 --> 00:05:34.290
  • Now, here's what you can think about.
  • 00:05:35.020 --> 00:05:36.170
  • We're talking about hearing God.
  • 00:05:36.200 --> 00:05:39.040
  • So, prophecy is giving a message from God to someone.
  • 00:05:39.070 --> 00:05:44.000
  • So, doesn't it make sense that if you can all prophesy,
  • 00:05:44.030 --> 00:05:50.280
  • then you can all hear God? Right?
  • 00:05:51.010 --> 00:05:57.020
  • If prophecy is a message from God and you can do it,
  • 00:05:57.050 --> 00:06:01.230
  • according to the Bible, you can do it,
  • 00:06:01.260 --> 00:06:04.130
  • then you can hear God.
  • 00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:08.280
  • That's the point of our whole series.
  • 00:06:09.010 --> 00:06:11.080
  • Can we hear God today and how do we hear God?
  • 00:06:11.110 --> 00:06:14.100
  • So, we can hear.
  • 00:06:14.130 --> 00:06:15.160
  • Acts 2, Pentecost is the fulfillment of Moses's prayer.
  • 00:06:15.190 --> 00:06:21.230
  • Oh, that God would put His Spirit on all of His children.
  • 00:06:21.260 --> 00:06:26.120
  • And that all of God's people are prophets.
  • 00:06:26.150 --> 00:06:29.120
  • Now, notice something about the 70.
  • 00:06:29.150 --> 00:06:31.130
  • It said, "The spirit rested upon them
  • 00:06:31.160 --> 00:06:35.040
  • and they prophesied but they never prophesied again."
  • 00:06:35.070 --> 00:06:37.270
  • Here's why: Because the Holy Spirit came on them,
  • 00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:41.030
  • but He didn't remain.
  • 00:06:41.060 --> 00:06:44.170
  • The baptism in the Holy Spirit is when the Holy Spirit
  • 00:06:44.200 --> 00:06:47.140
  • comes on you and remains.
  • 00:06:47.170 --> 00:06:50.070
  • And the first person to ever experience the baptism
  • 00:06:50.100 --> 00:06:52.290
  • in the Holy Spirit was Jesus, Himself.
  • 00:06:53.020 --> 00:06:56.190
  • John 1:33, John the Baptist is speaking.
  • 00:06:56.220 --> 00:06:59.240
  • He said, "I did not know Him, but He who sent me
  • 00:06:59.270 --> 00:07:02.170
  • to baptize with water said to me,
  • 00:07:02.200 --> 00:07:05.000
  • 'Upon whom you see the spirit,'" watch,
  • 00:07:05.030 --> 00:07:07.010
  • "'descending and remaining.'"
  • 00:07:07.040 --> 00:07:10.250
  • Not just descending.
  • 00:07:10.280 --> 00:07:11.290
  • See, in the Old Testament, He descended on Saul,
  • 00:07:12.020 --> 00:07:14.030
  • Saul prophesied, but then the spirit was taken from Saul.
  • 00:07:14.060 --> 00:07:17.160
  • Descending and remaining on him,
  • 00:07:17.190 --> 00:07:20.200
  • this is he who baptized with the Holy Spirit.
  • 00:07:20.230 --> 00:07:23.200
  • Now, when I saw the Holy Spirit remains,
  • 00:07:23.230 --> 00:07:25.290
  • it doesn't mean you always yield to Him.
  • 00:07:26.020 --> 00:07:29.050
  • But it does mean He's always there.
  • 00:07:29.080 --> 00:07:32.280
  • The Holy Spirit walks beside you.
  • 00:07:33.010 --> 00:07:35.230
  • I've told you before in the previous series, "parakletos".
  • 00:07:35.260 --> 00:07:38.220
  • "Para" means alongside. "Kletos" means to come.
  • 00:07:38.250 --> 00:07:41.060
  • The Holy Spirit wants to come alongside you.
  • 00:07:41.090 --> 00:07:44.060
  • Jesus said it clearly, "When He comes, He will speak."
  • 00:07:44.090 --> 00:07:51.150
  • He will tell you things. He wants to speak to you.
  • 00:07:51.180 --> 00:07:55.090
  • I was in a restaurant one time having lunch.
  • 00:07:55.120 --> 00:07:58.260
  • This guy walked in, it was a cafeteria
  • 00:07:58.290 --> 00:08:01.190
  • and he came in and when he came with his tray,
  • 00:08:01.220 --> 00:08:04.190
  • he was just huge.
  • 00:08:04.220 --> 00:08:06.210
  • I found out later, after talking with him,
  • 00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:08.270
  • he was either, and I can't remember which,
  • 00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:10.120
  • either Mr. America, previous Mr. America,
  • 00:08:10.150 --> 00:08:13.260
  • former Mr. America or Mr. Universe.
  • 00:08:13.290 --> 00:08:16.060
  • So, obviously, when he walked in the room, everybody noticed him.
  • 00:08:16.090 --> 00:08:19.210
  • But when I walked in the room, the Lord spoke something to me
  • 00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:23.220
  • and, so I went over to him. I just walked over.
  • 00:08:23.250 --> 00:08:26.020
  • He and his wife are having lunch and I walked over to the table
  • 00:08:26.050 --> 00:08:29.260
  • and I said, "Hey, I don't want to interrupt your lunch,
  • 00:08:29.290 --> 00:08:37.040
  • but I just wanted to ask you a question."
  • 00:08:37.070 --> 00:08:39.200
  • I said, "I'm a pretty perceptive guy.
  • 00:08:39.230 --> 00:08:43.210
  • Have you ever lifted weights?"
  • 00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:45.120
  • [laughter]
  • 00:08:45.150 --> 00:08:48.120
  • And of course, he did what you did.
  • 00:08:48.150 --> 00:08:49.150
  • He laughed a little bit.
  • 00:08:49.180 --> 00:08:50.180
  • See, if you have a word for someone be a human
  • 00:08:50.210 --> 00:08:53.290
  • when you deliver it.
  • 00:08:54.020 --> 00:08:55.090
  • Don't go over in a restaurant, "Thus sayeth the Lord."
  • 00:08:55.120 --> 00:08:58.000
  • Don't do that. [laughter]
  • 00:08:58.030 --> 00:09:00.290
  • It kind of ruins the whole thing, you know?
  • 00:09:01.020 --> 00:09:04.110
  • So, I just said to him, I made that little joke
  • 00:09:04.140 --> 00:09:06.030
  • and he said, "Yeah, I've lifted weights a few times," you know.
  • 00:09:06.060 --> 00:09:09.080
  • And so, I said, "Well, I could tell you did and,"
  • 00:09:09.110 --> 00:09:11.020
  • I said, "but the reason I came over is because
  • 00:09:11.050 --> 00:09:16.000
  • I feel like the Lord spoke something to me to tell you."
  • 00:09:16.030 --> 00:09:21.120
  • And he looked over at his wife and he looked back at me
  • 00:09:21.150 --> 00:09:26.010
  • and I said to him, "Would you mind if I told you?"
  • 00:09:26.040 --> 00:09:27.180
  • And he said, "Please tell us."
  • 00:09:27.210 --> 00:09:30.090
  • I'll tell you why in a moment he looked at his wife.
  • 00:09:30.120 --> 00:09:32.220
  • But, he said, "Would you sit down and tell us?"
  • 00:09:32.250 --> 00:09:34.210
  • I said, "Yes."
  • 00:09:34.240 --> 00:09:35.230
  • So, I sat down at the table and I said,
  • 00:09:35.260 --> 00:09:36.290
  • "I saw you as a little boy, you were sitting
  • 00:09:37.020 --> 00:09:39.160
  • in your grandmother's lap and you were crying
  • 00:09:39.190 --> 00:09:43.250
  • and your grandmother had a Bible and she read to you
  • 00:09:43.280 --> 00:09:46.170
  • the story of Sampson and she told you
  • 00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:49.240
  • that if you would commit your life to Christ,
  • 00:09:49.270 --> 00:09:52.060
  • he would make you strong like Sampson."
  • 00:09:52.090 --> 00:09:55.030
  • And I said, "And the Lord told me to tell you
  • 00:09:55.060 --> 00:09:56.130
  • that He's kept up His end of the deal,
  • 00:09:56.160 --> 00:09:59.160
  • but you haven't kept up your end of the deal."
  • 00:09:59.190 --> 00:10:04.060
  • And when you tell Mr. Universe that,
  • 00:10:04.090 --> 00:10:09.040
  • you want to make you're right, you know?
  • 00:10:09.070 --> 00:10:12.100
  • But here's what happened: His eyes swelled up
  • 00:10:12.130 --> 00:10:15.050
  • with pools of tears.
  • 00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:17.240
  • And he said to me, "When I was a little boy,
  • 00:10:17.270 --> 00:10:19.090
  • I was raised by a single mother
  • 00:10:19.120 --> 00:10:21.170
  • and my grandmother raised me a lot
  • 00:10:21.200 --> 00:10:23.290
  • and one day I was walking home, and some boys threw rocks at me.
  • 00:10:24.020 --> 00:10:27.170
  • One hit me in the head and I went crying to my grandmother
  • 00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:31.050
  • and she put me in her lap and she read to me
  • 00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:33.080
  • the story of Sampson and she told me
  • 00:10:33.110 --> 00:10:36.260
  • that if I would give my life to God,
  • 00:10:36.290 --> 00:10:38.040
  • He would make me strong like Sampson."
  • 00:10:38.070 --> 00:10:40.190
  • And he said to me, "I told my wife that story
  • 00:10:40.220 --> 00:10:44.090
  • for the first time on the way to the restaurant today."
  • 00:10:44.120 --> 00:10:50.190
  • And he reached over, and he took his wife's hand he said,
  • 00:10:50.220 --> 00:10:53.200
  • "We need to commit our lives to Jesus Christ."
  • 00:10:53.230 --> 00:10:56.260
  • And I led them in a prayer right there at the table.
  • 00:10:56.290 --> 00:11:00.110
  • God speaks.
  • 00:11:00.140 --> 00:11:02.240
  • God speaks, and I want you to know that God can speak
  • 00:11:02.270 --> 00:11:06.070
  • through you. [applause]
  • 00:11:06.100 --> 00:11:08.250
  • So, all, all can prophesy. Here's number two.
  • 00:11:08.280 --> 00:11:12.040
  • Prophecy is not manipulative. Prophecy is not manipulative.
  • 00:11:12.070 --> 00:11:17.000
  • In other words, prophecy is not to get people
  • 00:11:17.030 --> 00:11:19.260
  • to do what you want them to do.
  • 00:11:19.290 --> 00:11:23.010
  • You don't just feel something for someone
  • 00:11:23.040 --> 00:11:25.270
  • and want them to do something and add, "the Lord said," on it.
  • 00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:29.040
  • Let me read you some verses.
  • 00:11:29.070 --> 00:11:30.230
  • Jeremiah 23:25-25, "I've heard", this is God's speaking.
  • 00:11:30.260 --> 00:11:35.230
  • "I've heard what the prophets have said
  • 00:11:35.260 --> 00:11:37.140
  • who prophesy lies in my name
  • 00:11:37.170 --> 00:11:40.250
  • saying, 'I have dreamed, I have dreamed.'
  • 00:11:40.280 --> 00:11:43.000
  • How long will this be in the heart of the prophets
  • 00:11:43.030 --> 00:11:45.160
  • who prophesy lies?
  • 00:11:45.190 --> 00:11:46.270
  • Indeed, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart."
  • 00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:51.130
  • Jeremiah 23:30-31, "'Therefore, behold,
  • 00:11:51.160 --> 00:11:54.040
  • I'm against the prophet,' says the Lord,
  • 00:11:54.070 --> 00:11:57.030
  • 'who steal My words, everyone from his neighbor.'"
  • 00:11:57.060 --> 00:12:00.180
  • In other words, someone else said it,
  • 00:12:00.210 --> 00:12:01.290
  • now they're going to say it as if they heard it from the Lord.
  • 00:12:02.020 --> 00:12:04.100
  • "'Behold, I'm against the prophet,' says the Lord,
  • 00:12:04.130 --> 00:12:07.010
  • 'who use their tongues and say, 'He says.''"
  • 00:12:07.040 --> 00:12:10.180
  • Ezekiel 22:28,
  • 00:12:10.210 --> 00:12:12.160
  • "Her prophets plaster them with untampered mortar
  • 00:12:12.190 --> 00:12:15.280
  • seeing false visions and divining lies for them
  • 00:12:16.010 --> 00:12:19.010
  • saying, 'Thus says the Lord God,'
  • 00:12:19.040 --> 00:12:21.230
  • when the Lord had not spoken."
  • 00:12:21.260 --> 00:12:25.290
  • Please be careful. You can prophesy.
  • 00:12:26.020 --> 00:12:28.190
  • But be careful saying, "Thus says the Lord."
  • 00:12:28.220 --> 00:12:31.240
  • I think it's actually better to say something like,
  • 00:12:31.270 --> 00:12:35.170
  • "I was praying for you and I felt like
  • 00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:39.070
  • that the Lord impressed me with this."
  • 00:12:39.100 --> 00:12:40.180
  • And I just want to submit this to you.
  • 00:12:40.210 --> 00:12:43.090
  • By the way, I said, notice, "I was praying for you."
  • 00:12:43.120 --> 00:12:46.270
  • I'm taking it for granted that you actually pray for people,
  • 00:12:47.000 --> 00:12:50.250
  • not about people or against people,
  • 00:12:50.280 --> 00:12:54.070
  • but that we pray for them.
  • 00:12:54.100 --> 00:12:56.110
  • And so, you just submit it to them.
  • 00:12:56.140 --> 00:12:59.030
  • And I think, by the way, that I'm going to give you
  • 00:12:59.060 --> 00:13:02.000
  • maybe a little new understanding of the third commandment.
  • 00:13:02.030 --> 00:13:06.130
  • I think it does mean what we think it means,
  • 00:13:06.160 --> 00:13:08.210
  • but I think that it could mean even more.
  • 00:13:08.240 --> 00:13:11.140
  • It says that we're not to take the name of the Lord in vain.
  • 00:13:11.170 --> 00:13:15.240
  • The word "vain" there, means selfishness.
  • 00:13:15.270 --> 00:13:19.070
  • Now, this about, don't take or don't use
  • 00:13:19.100 --> 00:13:22.260
  • the name of the Lord for selfish reasons.
  • 00:13:22.290 --> 00:13:26.230
  • I do think it means not to use His name as a profane word,
  • 00:13:26.260 --> 00:13:30.150
  • but I also wonder if it means that you say His name
  • 00:13:30.180 --> 00:13:35.030
  • and then say what your desire is or a vain desire,
  • 00:13:35.060 --> 00:13:40.070
  • which is simply a selfish desire and I think when someone
  • 00:13:40.100 --> 00:13:43.160
  • comes to give you a word, you need to have an antenna up
  • 00:13:43.190 --> 00:13:47.220
  • and not a critical antenna, but a discerning antenna.
  • 00:13:47.250 --> 00:13:51.080
  • I think you need to discern.
  • 00:13:51.110 --> 00:13:52.200
  • Does this bear witness?
  • 00:13:52.230 --> 00:13:53.230
  • Is this what God's been saying?
  • 00:13:53.260 --> 00:13:55.260
  • I literally said to a guy one time,
  • 00:13:55.290 --> 00:13:57.190
  • he said, he told me this word
  • 00:13:57.220 --> 00:13:59.030
  • and I said, "Brother, that's not a word from God."
  • 00:13:59.060 --> 00:14:01.270
  • And he said, "Well, how do you know that?"
  • 00:14:02.000 --> 00:14:03.160
  • I said, "'Cause I was just talking to Him."
  • 00:14:03.190 --> 00:14:07.290
  • I know Him very well.
  • 00:14:08.020 --> 00:14:09.080
  • That's how I know that and doesn't agree.
  • 00:14:09.110 --> 00:14:11.100
  • I said, "But that's okay. That's okay."
  • 00:14:11.130 --> 00:14:14.130
  • Because scripture says, "We can all prophesy,"
  • 00:14:14.160 --> 00:14:17.290
  • listen to this one, "so that we can all learn."
  • 00:14:18.020 --> 00:14:23.050
  • We're all learning to hear God's voice.
  • 00:14:23.080 --> 00:14:26.020
  • It's okay.
  • 00:14:26.050 --> 00:14:27.060
  • So, it's never manipulative or to get our own way
  • 00:14:27.090 --> 00:14:30.090
  • and here's number three.
  • 00:14:30.120 --> 00:14:31.140
  • Prophecy is encouraging.
  • 00:14:31.170 --> 00:14:34.210
  • It's encouraging.
  • 00:14:34.240 --> 00:14:36.250
  • I Corinthians 14:1 says, "Pursue love
  • 00:14:36.280 --> 00:14:41.180
  • and desire spiritual gifts,
  • 00:14:41.210 --> 00:14:45.140
  • but especially that you may prophesy."
  • 00:14:45.170 --> 00:14:50.020
  • Now, notice three actions out of this verse.
  • 00:14:50.050 --> 00:14:52.280
  • "Pursue love and desire spiritual gifts,
  • 00:14:53.010 --> 00:14:57.170
  • but especially," desire,
  • 00:14:57.200 --> 00:15:00.020
  • would be the implication from grammar here,
  • 00:15:00.050 --> 00:15:02.170
  • "that you may prophesy."
  • 00:15:02.200 --> 00:15:03.270
  • Desire, especially
  • 00:15:04.000 --> 00:15:05.170
  • that you may prophesy. Okay.
  • 00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:07.030
  • So, I'd like to ask you to raise your hands on this.
  • 00:15:07.060 --> 00:15:10.070
  • Every campus, every affiliate church.
  • 00:15:10.100 --> 00:15:14.060
  • I just read you a verse that said pursue love,
  • 00:15:14.090 --> 00:15:16.260
  • desire spiritual gifts, especially desire to prophesy.
  • 00:15:16.290 --> 00:15:18.160
  • So, let's do them one at a time.
  • 00:15:18.190 --> 00:15:19.210
  • How many of you, to the best of your ability
  • 00:15:19.240 --> 00:15:22.070
  • will pursue love? Can I see your hands?
  • 00:15:22.100 --> 00:15:27.260
  • How many of you, to the best of your ability,
  • 00:15:27.290 --> 00:15:30.050
  • will desire spiritual gifts? Can I see your hands?
  • 00:15:30.080 --> 00:15:33.190
  • 'Cause we just read this in the Bible, okay?
  • 00:15:33.220 --> 00:15:35.290
  • Alright.
  • 00:15:36.020 --> 00:15:36.290
  • So, how many of you, we just read it,
  • 00:15:37.020 --> 00:15:41.220
  • will desire especially that you may prophesy?
  • 00:15:41.250 --> 00:15:46.290
  • Can I see your hands? See?
  • 00:15:47.020 --> 00:15:49.020
  • And we just read it.
  • 00:15:49.050 --> 00:15:50.190
  • Look at verse 3, "For he who prophesies
  • 00:15:50.220 --> 00:15:54.020
  • speaks edification and exhortation
  • 00:15:54.050 --> 00:15:57.200
  • and comfort to man."
  • 00:15:57.230 --> 00:15:59.170
  • So, I summed it up with one word, encouragement.
  • 00:15:59.200 --> 00:16:02.050
  • And I'll show you in a moment
  • 00:16:02.080 --> 00:16:03.130
  • the Bible actually uses the same word.
  • 00:16:03.160 --> 00:16:05.070
  • I'll show you that, alright?
  • 00:16:05.100 --> 00:16:06.140
  • But here, exhortation, or edification,
  • 00:16:06.170 --> 00:16:09.180
  • that means you built up, exhortation,
  • 00:16:09.210 --> 00:16:11.250
  • that's a strengthening for you and an encouragement
  • 00:16:11.280 --> 00:16:15.260
  • and comfort.
  • 00:16:15.290 --> 00:16:17.030
  • I had a couple come meet years ago, and they said,
  • 00:16:17.060 --> 00:16:20.070
  • "Pastor, we got this prophecy.
  • 00:16:20.100 --> 00:16:21.130
  • We haven't slept since then, it's really bothering us.
  • 00:16:21.160 --> 00:16:24.100
  • We don't understand it. We don't think it's right.
  • 00:16:24.130 --> 00:16:27.000
  • We're in turmoil over it."
  • 00:16:27.030 --> 00:16:28.070
  • And I said to them, "Well, then it's not from God."
  • 00:16:28.100 --> 00:16:30.240
  • I can tell you right now it's not from God.
  • 00:16:30.270 --> 00:16:32.250
  • And they were like, "Well, how do you know?"
  • 00:16:32.280 --> 00:16:34.160
  • I said, "Well, let me put it to the scriptural test.
  • 00:16:34.190 --> 00:16:36.230
  • Did it edify you?"
  • 00:16:36.260 --> 00:16:38.130
  • They said, "No."
  • 00:16:38.160 --> 00:16:40.150
  • I said, "Did it exhort you?" They said, "No."
  • 00:16:40.180 --> 00:16:43.000
  • I said, "Did it comfort you?" They said, "No."
  • 00:16:43.030 --> 00:16:46.110
  • I said, "Then it's not from God."
  • 00:16:46.140 --> 00:16:49.030
  • Now, see, I can feel some of you are thinking, "Yeah, but."
  • 00:16:49.060 --> 00:16:52.280
  • No, there ain't no yeah buts to it.
  • 00:16:53.010 --> 00:16:55.140
  • We just read the Bible.
  • 00:16:55.170 --> 00:16:58.010
  • He who prophesies speaks edification
  • 00:16:58.040 --> 00:17:02.180
  • and exhortation and comfort. That's what the word.
  • 00:17:02.210 --> 00:17:07.060
  • You said, "Well, wouldn't God correct us sometime?"
  • 00:17:07.090 --> 00:17:09.140
  • Sure, He would. But that's not prophecy.
  • 00:17:09.170 --> 00:17:12.210
  • Not according to the Bible.
  • 00:17:12.240 --> 00:17:14.250
  • God corrects us all the time.
  • 00:17:14.280 --> 00:17:16.220
  • And God might correct us through spiritual authority
  • 00:17:16.250 --> 00:17:19.040
  • and God might correct us through a brother or a sister,
  • 00:17:19.070 --> 00:17:22.140
  • but don't call it prophecy.
  • 00:17:22.170 --> 00:17:24.270
  • Prophecy edifies, and it exhorts and comforts you.
  • 00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:30.140
  • So, the summary word is encouragement.
  • 00:17:30.170 --> 00:17:32.080
  • Let me show you a verse we already read
  • 00:17:32.110 --> 00:17:34.130
  • but show it to you again.
  • 00:17:34.160 --> 00:17:35.240
  • Look at verse 31.
  • 00:17:35.270 --> 00:17:37.070
  • "For you can all prophesy one by one that all may learn,
  • 00:17:37.100 --> 00:17:42.060
  • and all may be," what?
  • 00:17:42.090 --> 00:17:44.160
  • Encouraged. It's encouragement.
  • 00:17:44.190 --> 00:17:46.100
  • By the way, a couple things to tune in on this again.
  • 00:17:46.130 --> 00:17:49.270
  • You can all prophesy.
  • 00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:51.190
  • It says you can.
  • 00:17:51.220 --> 00:17:53.000
  • Listen, why would God say you could if you couldn't?
  • 00:17:53.030 --> 00:17:58.150
  • He wouldn't. You're right.
  • 00:17:58.180 --> 00:18:01.070
  • Wouldn't that be a cruel Father?
  • 00:18:01.100 --> 00:18:02.180
  • And He's not a cruel father.
  • 00:18:02.210 --> 00:18:04.160
  • Why would God say, why would a father say,
  • 00:18:04.190 --> 00:18:07.010
  • "Hey, desire a basketball for Christmas,"
  • 00:18:07.040 --> 00:18:12.170
  • if He wasn't going to give you a basketball
  • 00:18:12.200 --> 00:18:15.070
  • and never give you one.
  • 00:18:15.100 --> 00:18:16.270
  • Why would God, think about it.
  • 00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:18.190
  • Why would God say, "Desire that you can prophesy,
  • 00:18:18.220 --> 00:18:22.190
  • and you can, you can all prophesy..."?
  • 00:18:22.220 --> 00:18:27.190
  • Why would God say that if you couldn't?
  • 00:18:27.220 --> 00:18:30.100
  • And remember, if He says you can prophesy,
  • 00:18:30.130 --> 00:18:32.240
  • which is give someone a message from God,
  • 00:18:32.270 --> 00:18:35.170
  • then you'd have to be able to hear God to be able to do it.
  • 00:18:35.200 --> 00:18:38.140
  • Are you all following me?
  • 00:18:38.170 --> 00:18:39.290
  • Everyone's heard of Paul and Barnabas.
  • 00:18:40.020 --> 00:18:41.200
  • Paul and Barnabas, the most famous missionary team ever.
  • 00:18:41.230 --> 00:18:44.120
  • Paul and Barnabas.
  • 00:18:44.150 --> 00:18:45.220
  • Did you know though,
  • 00:18:45.250 --> 00:18:47.270
  • that Barnabas was not named Barnabas
  • 00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:50.210
  • by his mother or his father?
  • 00:18:50.240 --> 00:18:53.100
  • That was not his birth name.
  • 00:18:53.130 --> 00:18:55.120
  • Acts 4:36, "And Joses," by the way, Joses means exalted.
  • 00:18:55.150 --> 00:19:05.010
  • "Joses, who was also named Barnabas by the apostles.
  • 00:19:05.040 --> 00:19:14.110
  • [Which is translated son of encouragement]."
  • 00:19:14.140 --> 00:19:20.180
  • So, he's named exalted by his mother and father,
  • 00:19:20.210 --> 00:19:24.250
  • but he is such an encourager that the apostle said,
  • 00:19:24.280 --> 00:19:29.040
  • "If encouragement had a son, it'd be you."
  • 00:19:29.070 --> 00:19:34.120
  • Okay, this is kind of a touch question for all of us:
  • 00:19:34.150 --> 00:19:38.280
  • What name would your friends give you?
  • 00:19:39.010 --> 00:19:45.210
  • Son of anger?
  • 00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:49.000
  • Son of criticism?
  • 00:19:49.030 --> 00:19:52.160
  • Would you be named son or daughter of encouragement?
  • 00:19:52.190 --> 00:19:58.230
  • That's what prophecy is. Encouraging people.
  • 00:19:58.260 --> 00:20:01.260
  • By the way, encouragement, just to remind you,
  • 00:20:01.290 --> 00:20:04.280
  • the "en" comes from the Latin.
  • 00:20:05.010 --> 00:20:06.260
  • In English we say I-N to put something in.
  • 00:20:06.290 --> 00:20:10.220
  • Encourage means to put courage in someone.
  • 00:20:10.250 --> 00:20:15.110
  • To put courage in.
  • 00:20:15.140 --> 00:20:17.020
  • Discourage means to take courage out.
  • 00:20:17.050 --> 00:20:21.130
  • So, are you putting courage in your children
  • 00:20:21.160 --> 00:20:25.260
  • or are you taking courage out of your children
  • 00:20:25.290 --> 00:20:29.100
  • or your friends or your family?
  • 00:20:29.130 --> 00:20:31.020
  • I'll show you one more verse on encouragement.
  • 00:20:31.050 --> 00:20:32.150
  • Acts 15:32.
  • 00:20:32.180 --> 00:20:33.280
  • "Now, Judas and Silas, themselves being prophets
  • 00:20:34.010 --> 00:20:39.000
  • also exhorted and strengthened,"
  • 00:20:39.030 --> 00:20:43.060
  • edified, built up, "the brethren with many words."
  • 00:20:43.090 --> 00:20:47.140
  • It doesn't say that they rebuked, corrected,
  • 00:20:47.170 --> 00:20:50.170
  • and tore down the brethren.
  • 00:20:50.200 --> 00:20:53.040
  • It says since they were prophets, they built up,
  • 00:20:53.070 --> 00:20:56.110
  • strengthened and exhorted the brethren.
  • 00:20:56.140 --> 00:20:58.100
  • And by the way, we know they're preachers
  • 00:20:58.130 --> 00:20:59.220
  • because it said with many words.
  • 00:20:59.250 --> 00:21:02.120
  • [laughter]
  • 00:21:02.150 --> 00:21:07.200
  • Is it possible that you've already moved in prophecy
  • 00:21:07.230 --> 00:21:10.140
  • and you don't even know it? I think it is.
  • 00:21:10.170 --> 00:21:14.220
  • Have you ever felt led to send someone a card
  • 00:21:14.250 --> 00:21:20.050
  • to encourage them?
  • 00:21:20.080 --> 00:21:21.220
  • You ever felt led to send someone a note?
  • 00:21:21.250 --> 00:21:24.020
  • You ever felt led to give someone a scripture?
  • 00:21:24.050 --> 00:21:26.270
  • I just was reading this the other day
  • 00:21:27.000 --> 00:21:28.050
  • and I just felt like the Lord wanted me
  • 00:21:28.080 --> 00:21:29.230
  • to give you this scripture
  • 00:21:29.260 --> 00:21:31.010
  • and then you hear back the person says,
  • 00:21:31.040 --> 00:21:33.210
  • "I can't believe you gave me that scripture.
  • 00:21:33.240 --> 00:21:35.180
  • It's the same scripture the Lord gave me two days ago
  • 00:21:35.210 --> 00:21:42.040
  • in my quiet time."
  • 00:21:42.070 --> 00:21:43.270
  • Out of 31.103 verses,
  • 00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:48.240
  • you are smart enough to pick out the same one?
  • 00:21:48.270 --> 00:21:55.210
  • You're not.
  • 00:21:55.240 --> 00:21:59.290
  • Where did this come from, this desire
  • 00:22:00.040 --> 00:22:02.230
  • to encourage someone?
  • 00:22:02.260 --> 00:22:04.000
  • Well, it didn't come from the devil
  • 00:22:04.030 --> 00:22:06.210
  • and it didn't come from you.
  • 00:22:06.240 --> 00:22:09.090
  • It came from God.
  • 00:22:09.120 --> 00:22:10.190
  • And if prophecy is encouragement and prophecy is a word from God,
  • 00:22:10.220 --> 00:22:17.000
  • what does that tell you about God?
  • 00:22:17.030 --> 00:22:19.250
  • Can I say that again, because that's better than you thought?
  • 00:22:19.280 --> 00:22:22.030
  • If prophecy is encouragement, and prophecy is a word from God,
  • 00:22:22.060 --> 00:22:27.020
  • what does that tell you about God?
  • 00:22:27.050 --> 00:22:28.170
  • He wants to encourage you. He wants to.
  • 00:22:28.200 --> 00:22:30.230
  • He wants to put courage in you.
  • 00:22:30.260 --> 00:22:32.220
  • But what He wants is a whole bunch of field agents
  • 00:22:32.250 --> 00:22:38.120
  • who will go around putting courage in people.
  • 00:22:38.150 --> 00:22:41.260
  • But in order to give someone a message from God,
  • 00:22:41.290 --> 00:22:45.290
  • you have to hear God.
  • 00:22:46.020 --> 00:22:51.060
  • You can all prophesy.
  • 00:22:51.090 --> 00:22:53.070
  • You really can.
  • 00:22:53.100 --> 00:22:55.100
  • Just start encouraging people and let God
  • 00:22:55.130 --> 00:22:58.050
  • take it from there.
  • 00:22:58.080 --> 00:22:59.190
  • PASTOR ROBERT: God wants to speak to you today.
  • 00:23:00.270 --> 00:23:03.230
  • And He might want to speak to you to speak to someone else.
  • 00:23:03.260 --> 00:23:08.160
  • He might want you to send a scripture or send a card
  • 00:23:08.190 --> 00:23:12.160
  • or call someone and encourage that person in the Lord.
  • 00:23:12.190 --> 00:23:17.010
  • I want to encourage you, listen for God's voice
  • 00:23:17.040 --> 00:23:20.190
  • and listen for His voice not only for yourself
  • 00:23:20.220 --> 00:23:24.000
  • but so you can encourage someone else.
  • 00:23:24.030 --> 00:23:26.090

  • "Does God still speak?"
  • 00:23:44.140 --> 00:23:45.230
  • Or, "Is He really speaking to me?"
  • 00:23:45.260 --> 00:23:48.060
