Office Of The Prophet

This study came about from a teaching on the manifestation gifts of the Holy Spirit the author prepared for the altar workers at The People's Church of Santa Fe in New Mexico. That teaching has been incorporated into this study. During the discussion on the manifestation gift of prophecy, it was stated that operating through the gift of prophecy does not make someone a prophet. The question arose, "What is the difference between the gift of prophecy and the office of the prophet?" That was when this study was born. This book includes scriptural teaching on the office of the prophet which is one of the five-fold ministry gifts or offices. The book teaches how one knows he has been called to be a prophet. It discusses the nine manifestation gifts of the Holy Spirit and the ways in which prophets utilize these gifts as tools to fulfill the Lord's directives. Additionally, it discusses the operation of these gifts in any believer filled with the Spirit when they are empowered by the Holy Spirit. There are also examples of how the Holy Spirit has operated in the life of the author over her 40-plus years of serving the Lord as a prophet of God.
