1. What role does love play in the operation of the prophetic giftings in today's society?

Love is a vital part of the prophetic because God is love and we're representing Him. Because the vessel is walking in a relationship and revelation of the love God has for them, they are able to pass that along to those being ministered to. Knowing how God loves you in your former and current state will cause you to be compassionate to others and show the love of God to them that was shown to you.

2. Name three ways that God communicates with his creation?

God communicates through His word
God communicates through dreams
God communicates through the Holy Spirit

3. Do you believe you are a prophet? If so, why?

I know that I operate strongly in the vocal gifts (teaching and revelatory). God gives me a lot of wisdom to speak to others. I know that I am prophetic and my words carry a lot of weight. I also know that I am His friend and He reveals His secrets to His friends, the prophets, and my dreams are prophetic. I know definitely that I am prophetic. It's been prophesied to me that I am prophet.

Do I believe that I am a prophet? Yes.

4. Do you have an active relationship with the Lord?

Yes

5. How important is the Word of God in your everyday life?

The Word is very important in my everyday life. Unfortunately, I haven't been in it daily as I should, but I'm getting back to it. I try to apply it to my everyday circumstances and let my decisions and actions be a result of instructions in the Word.

6. What does the scripture in Romans 11:25 - 36 mean to you? Also, specifically, share what verse 29 means to you?

Romans 11:25-36 means to me that God is serious about His intentions and love for Israel because of the promise He made to Abraham. He refuses to break His promise to save His people and will do whatever it takes to do so. Also, because of Israel's disobedience and unbelief, the door was opened for the Gentiles to get saved, thereby salvation made available to the whole world. God truly does confound the wise and you can't go by what you see on the surface. He knows how to bring things together for His plan to manifest. He said that all of Israel will be saved and He knows how He's going to do that.

Verse 29 says that His gifts are without repentance.

Gifts by Thayer's definition: a favour with which one receives without any merit of his own; gift of divine grace; gift of faith, knowledge, holiness, virtue; the economy of divine grace, by which the pardon of sin and eternal salvation is appointed to sinners in consideration of the merits of Christ laid hold of by faith; grace or gifts denoting extraordinary powers, distinguishing certain Christians and enabling them to serve the church of Christ, the reception of which is due to the power of divine grace operating on their souls by the Holy Spirit

Calling - a calling, calling to; an invitation to a feast, of the divine invitation to embrace salvation of God.

Mostly, I think of that scripture in terms of having gifts operating to serve the people of God. Looking at the full context, I see it more as the gift of salvation given through the grace of God. You can't earn it, you don't deserve it. It comes only through Jesus. And the calling of God is that He doesn't take back what He said. He called us to salvation, He doesn't stop calling. He's relentless.

7. What can you learn from the story of Baalim the prophet in Numbers 22?

I see that when God says, "no" He means it (or anything else He says). The price of disobedience can cost your life. Because of His mercy, He may allow you to do some things but it's best to humble yourself and trust Him and go with His first answer.

Also, what did God say? God's word trumps man's word any day and any time.

8. What training have you had in the prophetic?

I've attended the prophetic training classes.

9. Do you have any formal educational training, or ordinations for ministry?

I'm an ordained Elder.

10. On a scale of 1 to 10 with ten being the best, how would you rate your prayer life?

5

11. What are the "deep things of God" the bible refers to?

I think the deep things of God are His will and plans for eternity and our lives. Through revelation from His Spirit He reveals to us what His plans are.

12.What is the difference between a dimension and a realm?

A dimension is something that can be measured; a realm is something more abstract

13. According to the old testament, what are the seven spirits of God?

The Spirit of the LORD, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the LORD.

14. Please share one area of your life that God has dealt with you about concerning your character.

Impatience and I'm finally beginning to conquer this thing.

15. How has God dealt with you concerning the heart of God, the will of God and your purpose in God?

God has dealt with me concerning His heart a lot with the outreach to the homeless. I've learned so much about how He cares for His people and how He wants us to treat those less fortunate than we are. We never know how or why a person is in the place they're in and we really have no right to judge them, God is the only Judge. I've come to a greater understanding of giving through donations that have been given to me for the outreach. I understand the widow's mite and how it pleases God so much. My purpose is wrapped up in the outreach. I believe that this is a stepping stone to where He wants to take me. He has so much for me and if I am available and obedient to Him in this little thing. I see such strong ministry in feeding His people because we can feed them naturally and spiritually.
