YOU ARE A PROPHET

As God's sent, one of your responsibilities is to carry the message of God to His people. Not necessary what they want to hear but what God has said concerning them. In the Kingdom, it doesn't matter whether or not you make sense to the world, what matters is for you to communicate the truth of the Kingdom and the King of Kings at all times. This could make you appear as a mad person. i.e, when you communicate to a tree like Jesus did in Matthew 21:19 or ask mountains to move as he said we could. This can happen both on the spiritual and physical realm. When Jesus spoke to that tree, it was physical and I tell, you can pray things out of existence. That is why God gave you dominion over them but you must be careful to use this power you have responsibly.

Disturbing Observation of Prophetic function
What I find disturbing about this great office is that our pastors have denied the people of this function, turning them into prayer warriors for things that are theirs by right. Prayer is very good but you must be ensure not to pray like an hypocrite. Now, the power that we have is in the “Word” but instead of teaching and relaying the Word by the Spirit as direct by God, most pastors have abdicated this responsibility and instead hands it to students learning under them. Their concern now is not the word of God but the show of healing, the miracles, the money etc in order to have more followership. 

Evil Seeds in Churches
The Kingdom of Heaven is like a farmer who planted good seed in his field. But that night as everyone slept, his enemy came and planted weeds among the wheat. 

Are you planting evil seeds in the children of God instead of the Word of the Kingdom? repent now! Jesus spoke concerning you in the above passage of the Bible. What the world is hearing now is Christ the miracle worker, not Christ the way, the truth and the life. It is time to preach Christ the King and His Kingdom.
If Paul that most pastors quotes out of context most of the time today also preached the Kingdom; “And he went into the synagogue and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the Kingdom of God”Acts 19:8 then, I expect all God’s children to do the same.

Lead by Good Examples
While Paul was at it, preaching the message of the Kingdom and his hope that someday, we will rise to be with our King here on earth, he was also setting another example for us to follow, hear him; “I have coveted no man’s silver or gold, or apparel. Yea, ye yourselves know that these hands have ministered unto my necessities and to them that were with me”.
C’mon pastors, instead of emulating Paul, you have turned your church members into lazy bunch who simply believe that by praying very hard even without the righteousness of God in them, God will magically supply that need without them actually working for it.

Please do not say 'God says' when He has not spoken and tell people to have faith that it shall come to pass, and it shall be well with you
