Preparing for the Office of the Prophet

And all Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the Lord. - 1 Samuel 3:20

When called into prophetic ministry, many want the whole world to know the Lord has chosen them to stand in the office of the prophet. But this very desire demonstrates the lack of maturity necessary to stand and withstand the persecution, rejection and spiritual warfare that comes against the prophet.

Do you want to prophesy what saith the Spirit of God with greater authority, stronger boldness and increased accuracy? Do you want that double portion that Elisha carried? Learn the keys to flowing in a more powerful prophetic anointing in this highly recommended book.

“I read this manuscript with great scrutiny for I have been a pioneer, promoter and defender of prophets and prophetic ministry for 55 years. I can honestly say that Jennifer covers some very delicate subjects with sound wisdom and integrity.” - Dr. Bill Hamon

“Jennifer LeClaire’s book, in my estimation, is one of the best books on prophecy available.” - Ernest Gentile

“I loved this book! Jennifer does a bold, insightful job of discerning the precious from the worthless (Jeremiah 15:19) yet also pursues us with the love of God.” - Graham Cooke

When you consider this Verse, also consider that Samuel had been prepared to be established. He had served in the house of God for since he was old enough to hold a broom to sweep the temple. He grew in the things of God and was faithful to Eli. He learned to hear the voice of the Lord. And he overcame the fear of man when Eli demanded to know what the Lord had spoken to him.

Indeed, before Samuel came to the point in his ministry where the Lord “did let none of his words fall to the ground” and exalted him to international influence, Samuel had to be raised up in the Word of God and the ways of God. So if you’ve been called into prophetic ministry, be patient and don’t look to emerge from the wilderness until God establishes you. You can be sure that your time of revealing will come.

Very good except that Samuel was not called to an international ministry. The word plainly says from Dan to Beersheba. Other than that this was very good.

Well first of all it is very important to hear God and to be seasoned but this comes by being in the presence of God in order for Him to really speak to you

This is a wonderful message.  I have been struggling with accepting the call, I need direction, I have suffered intense rejection and despise since my childhood.  I pray for God’s total guidance.

About 6 months ago the Lord said to me..“I call you a prophet, Elaine I call you a prophet”. Now, i wait and study. I listen to all that He speaks to me and shows me. I record it all, so nothing is lost. His words, visions, dreams, all are vital to understanding and obeying. I am hungry for more, all the time. Like a fish out of water, without His voice leading me, I will perish.  I am so grateful for women of God who will lead and stand for what is right. There is perfect order in the Kingdom, we need to know it well and live it.
Thank you so very much,
Elaine

Prophet how do you know that God has called to be a Prophet. I really want to be a hearer from God concerning the problems of others. I dont have the preference for any ministry either but my only desire to be medium of transmission of solutions from God for his people
