Array ( [sid] => 124310 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Profiling The Prophet [time] => 2006-08-10 18:36:39 [hometext] => “Jesters do oft prove prophets”. ~William Shakespeare [bodytext] => Truth’s circumference, in life, is between opposites of the whole.
In olden times prophets and seers were opposites, I’m told.
Prophets are born, chosen, and destined to speak for God alone.
Fundamentally they are higher than kings with rarely a a throne.

Firehouse challengors of normalcy to bring about rightous change.
Guided on chequered boards so even nations are rearranged.
Gifted men, judges, set-up by a Holy God with no need for pension.
Challenging the base of cheap-grace void of agape's redemption.

Their mouth's a blazing-sword, before the Lord of Israel they stand.
Without a Bible, the spirit of Truth in them carries out God’s plan.
Using whirlwinds, fire stones, and His Spirit-wind, shaking each one.
God’s tool of fire against the chaff-wheat, His joy to them such fun.

They are fearlessly bold, challenging false gods who calm divinity.
Often hidden as Elijah, till commissioned for sovereigns posterity.
They warn and proclaim God’s power over fool’s mindsets of guile.
Prayer-walking, they breathe God's love and life for Wisdom’s style.

Often reviled, persecuted, and misunderstood by evil, as also good.
Prophets are born not made; to society they can seem quite rude.
Power's in their veins as strategies are in their heads, gifted and led.
What a cost of obedience to shake nations, for such giftings misread.

Faith-quakers channel pure Love in alignment with God, to agree.
Uncertain of a bed, yet out of their mouth God’s Word is decreed~.
Prophets represent God’s will; they're the eyes of His people to see.
They’re watchmen in high places who’ll know you and your destiny.
