1. LEARNING TO PROPHESY
OCTOBER 24 2013, 2

2. INTRODUCTION
 Many
Christian believers think that the
prophetic is only for the Apostles, the
Prophets, the Teachers, the Evangelists,
the Pastors and some “special” anointed
people.
 Sadly, they are not able to think of
themselves as being able to flow in this
precious gift of the Holy Spirit.
 However the Bible teaches us differently:

3. THE MANIFESTATION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

4. 1 CORINTHIANS 12:7-11 (NKJV)
 7 But
the manifestation of the Spirit is given to
each one for the profit of all: 8 for to one is given
the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another
the word of knowledge through the same
Spirit, 9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to
another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, 10 to
another the working of miracles, to another
prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to
another different kinds of tongues, to another the
interpretation of tongues. 11 But one and the same
Spirit works all these things, distributing to each
one individually as He wills.

5. HOW CAN WE START THEN?
 We
must desire to prophesy.
 We need to become thirsty and
hungry for the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
 Ask Him to stir up in you a longing for
the highest gifts.

6. EVERY CHRISTIAN BELIEVER CAN
PROPHESY USING THE GIFT OF PROPHECY
GIVEN BY THE HOLY SPIRIT.

7. IN OLD TESTAMENT TIMES
 Moses
Desire was that every one
be a prophet and that the Spirit of
the Lord be upon them.
 Remember, at that time the Spirit
was given only to Prophets, Kings
and a few people.

8. THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD UPON A PERSON

9. NUMBERS 11:29 (NKJV)
 29
Then Moses said to him, “Are you
zealous for my sake? Oh, that all the
LORD’s people were prophets and
that the LORD would put His Spirit
upon them!”

10. IN THE NEW TESTAMENT
as well encourages us to seek the
spiritual gifts, but especially that we
may prophesy. Because prophesying
brings benefit to the person prophesying
and to the person or persons to whom
the prophecy goes.
 Paul
It
benefits the whole church!

11. SEEK THE SPIRITUAL GIFTS

12. 1 CORINTHIANS 14:1-5 (NKJV)

14 Pursue love, and desire spiritual gifts, but especially
that you may prophesy. 2 For he who speaks in a
tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one
understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks
mysteries. 3 But he who prophesies speaks edification
and exhortation and comfort to men. 4 He who speaks
in a tongue edifies himself, but he who
prophesies edifies the church.

5 I wish you all spoke with tongues, but even more that
you prophesied; for he who prophesies is greater than
he who speaks with tongues, unless indeed he
interprets, that the church may receive edification.

13. DESIRE THE GIFT OF PROPHECY

14. THE HOLY SPIRIT EMPOWERS YOU!
Once
the Holy Spirit is poured out
in a person, this person can
prophesy.
Prophecy is one of the gifts of the
Holy Spirit.

15. HOLY SPIRIT POURED OUT IN THE OT
Following we have examples of the Holy Spirit
being pour out on a person, as a consequence
of that, they prophesy.
 Numbers 11:27 (NKJV)
 And a young man ran and told Moses, and
said, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the
camp.”



16. IN THE SCRIPTURES BELOW WE SEE THE PROPHET
SAMUEL SPEAKING TO SAUL BEFORE THE SPIRIT
COMING UPON HIM.
1 Samuel 10:5 (NKJV)
 After that you shall come to the hill of God where
the Philistine garrison is. And it will happen, when
you have come there to the city, that you will meet
a group of prophets coming down from the high
place with a stringed instrument, a tambourine, a
flute, and a harp before them; and they will be

prophesying.

17. HOLY SPIRIT POURED OUT IN THE OT
1
Samuel 10:6 (NKJV)
Then the Spirit of the LORD will come upon
you, and you will prophesy with them and be
turned into another man.


Proximity to people with anointing will bring that
anointing upon you; god will see your desire and will
grant you the precious anointing.
Important as well is the fact that when the Spirit of the
Lord comes upon you, you will be
transformed into a new person!

18. TRANSFORMED INTO ANOTHER MAN.,
JUST AS PAUL WAS.

19. FULFILLMENT OF GOD’S PROMISE.
In
the New Testament everyone
could prophecy.
Why?
Because the Holy Spirit is poured
out on every believer.
The prophetic gift is inserted in us.

20. COMING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

21. COMING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
Acts 2:1-4 (NKJV)
 2 When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they
were all with one accord in one place. 2 And
suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of
a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole
house where they were sitting. 3 Then there
appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire,
and one sat upon each of them. 4 And they were
all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak
with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them
utterance.


22. PETER’S SERMON
Acts 2:14-19 (NKJV)
 14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, raised
his voice and said to them, “Men of Judea and
all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to
you, and heed my words. 15 For these are not
drunk, as you suppose, since it is only the third
hour of the day. 16 But this is what was spoken
by the prophet Joel:
