Why Prophesy

Welcome

The Apostolic & Prophetic Teachings of Apostle Norma Gray

Why we must Speak…

and keep speaking

Apostle Norma Y. Gray

Deal with the misconception that we must continue to receive the prophecies spoken into our lives…Many are tired of hearing the same prophetic word over and over again…

WHY PROPHESY• LET US LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN PROPHESY AND PROPHECY• PROPHECY MEANS TO FORTH TELL.

TO SPEAK PROPHETICALLY OF THINGS TO COME. TO PROPHESY THE FUTURE.

• PROPHESY IS TO PROCLAIM AS THE MIND OF GOD. TO SPEAK BODACIOUSLY AS THE ORACLE OF GOD. TO DECLARE


One must be careful here not to use word that would convey the wrong meaning. lIke to predict or prognosticate. To fortune tell,,,

I Corinthians 12:7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to

profit withal.Gift/Charisma

A divine gratuity, i.e. A spiritual endowment, i.e. A religious qualification, or faculty

It is a free gift.

prophesy.Prophesy

to foretell events, to divinely, speak under inspiration, to exercise or operate in the

prophetic office


in this context the word prophesy is the greek word propheteuo it is used interchangeable as one who forth tells and one who declares. Read from definition on your phone.

1 Corinthians 14:3 But <de> he that prophesieth <propheteuo> speaketh <laleo> unto men <anthropos>, to edification <oikodome>, and <kai> exhortation <paraklesis>, and <kai> comfort <paramuthia>.

Edification

• To Exhort - This is the base of prophesy. The architecture, or structure; figuratively

• Confirmation: speaks to the building up of by edification.

Exhortation

• Greek - Paraklesis• imploring, comfort, consolation

Comfort

• Consolation

1 Corinthians 14:5 I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye

prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the

church may receive edifying.

• 1 Corinthians 14:29-33 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge. If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace. For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted. And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets. For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

• 1 Corinthians 14:37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge (become fully acquainted with), that the things that I write unto you are the commandments (authoritative prescription) of the Lord.

• 1 Corinthians 14:39-40 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues. Let all things be done decently and in order.
