OPEN HEAVEN 13 JUNE 2019 THURSDAY – PROPHECY: DESPISED & ABUSED

OPEN HEAVEN 13 JUNE 2019 MEMORISE:
And by a prophet the Lord brought Israel out of Egypt, and by a prophet was he preserved. – Hosea 12:13.

OPEN HEAVEN 13 JUNE 2019 READ: 2 Chronicles 20:20-30 (KJV)

20. And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa; and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.

21. And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the LORD, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise the LORD; for his mercy endureth for ever.

22. And when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten.

23. For the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, utterly to slay and destroy them; and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, every one helped to destroy another.

24. And when Judah came toward the watch tower in the wilderness, they looked unto the multitude, and, behold, they were dead bodies fallen to the earth, and none escaped.

25. And when Jehoshaphat and his people came to take away the spoil of them, they found among them in abundance both riches with the dead bodies, and precious jewels, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could carry away; and they were three days in gathering of the spoil, it was so much.

26. And on the fourth day they assembled themselves in the valley of Berachah; for there they blessed the LORD; therefore the name of the same place was called, The valley of Berachah, unto this day.

27. Then they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, and Jehoshaphat in the forefront of them, to go again to Jerusalem with joy; for the LORD had made them to rejoice over their enemies.

28. And they came to Jerusalem with psalteries and harps and trumpets unto the house of the LORD.

29. And the fear of God was on all the kingdoms of those countries, when they had heard that the LORD fought against the enemies of Israel.

30. So the realm of Jehoshaphat was quiet; for his God gave him rest round about.

OPEN HEAVEN 13 JUNE 2019 MESSAGE WITH HYMN, PRAYER POINTS, BIBLE READING & DAILY DECLARATIONS

Prophecy is basically the revelation of God’s plans and purposes through inspired and Spirit-filled human beings.

It could also mean a message from God about what will happen in the future.

Prophecies are of divine origin and always speak authoritatively on things to come. Since the all-knowing God determines future events, He can choose to reveal what will happen in the future of His children beforehand. Also Read – Prayer Points For Open Heaven 12 June 2019

Prophecy is quite different from predictions or forecasts. While predictions and forecasts may change if the variables used in deriving them changes, prophecies on the other hand are messages from God concerning things which are bound to happen. (Isaiah 55:10-11).

A critical examination of Bible prophecies reveals a systematic fulfillment of what they say, except for a few that remain to be fulfilled in the future.

Examples of Bible prophesies that have come to pass include Israel’s captivity in Egypt for 400years in Genesis 15:13, the birth of king Josiah 300 years after it was prophesied in (1 King 13:2).

The rise of the Roman and Greek empires prophesied in great detail in Daniel 11, the arrival of John the Baptist as the forerunner of Jesus Christ spoken of in Isaiah 40:3. Also Read – Daily Declarations For 12th June 2019

The birth of Jesus the Messiah revealed in Isaiah 9:6-7, and the destruction of the temple soon after the death of Jesus in AD 70, which was prophesied in Mathew 24:2.

Prophecy is a wonderful gift of God that is highly desirable for guiding and edifying the Body in Christ.

However, it is fast becoming a despised and abused ministry for reasons which include people’s unwillingness to hear the truth, increased knowledge and enlightenment, and the proliferation of false prophets and fake prophecies.

God’s prophets today are being scorned as fanatics and alarmists for telling the truth and calling the world to repentance.

RCCG OPEN HEAVEN 13 JUNE 2019

Due to breakthroughs in science and technology, people now despise anything that appears inexplicable or intangible. Also Read – Open Heavens 12th June 2019.

False prophets and fake prophecies have also done much damage to the ministry of prophecy by sowing doubt in people’s minds.

The combination of these factors seems to be casting a shadow on the ministry of prophecy.

However because prophecy is part of Christ’s gifts to the church, we must value it and pray for the immediate fulfillment of God’s promise to pour out His Spirit of prophecy upon us in Joel 2:28.

OPEN HEAVEN 13 JUNE 2019 HYMNAL:
Hymn 7 – My hope is built on nothing less

1. My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus name.

CHORUS:
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.

2. When darkness seems to veil His face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil.

CHORUS:
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.

3. His oath, His covenant, and blood,
Support me in the whelming flood;
When all around my soul gives way,
He then is all my hope and stay.

CHORUS:
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.

4. When He shall come with trumpet sound,
Oh, may I then in Him be found;
Dressed in His righteousness alone,
Faultless to stand before the throne.

CHORUS:
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand,
All other ground is sinking sand.
