Prophetic Outlook 2010 - Destiny Becoming Reality...
by Jake Tribble
As for many who are listening to the Lord for direction in the coming year and decade, HE has revealed through Holy Spirit a confirmation to 'Destiny Becoming Reality' .
Beginning before New Years Eve 2000, preparations for Y2K were taken seriously and executed with clockwork precision to abate what many thought would be a nightmare in the world of computing. Needless to say, less came from all those preparations than any other single event, now history but nonetheless a landmark date. Flowing on in history, September 11, 2001, a day this generation saw a catastrophic attack against this nation from an unseen enemy. Far from Pearl Harbor in the eyes of this nation, yet troubling for both Believers in Christ and unbelievers alike. Why do unbelievers continue refusing to recognize that the enemy of God is also an enemy capable of devastation and mayhem? A Reality defined in God's WORD, having more information does not necessarily assure one of a quiet existence, but Wisdom steers one to make the correct decision concerning eternity. Non-stop coverage of the US invasion of Iraq, who remembers the hours upon hours of live transmissions, journalists 'embedded' with troops, searching for Saddam Hussein and any one of his associates. Caught a few short months later, man's system of law and order seemingly triumphed and justice was served.
The ups and downs following this 'invasion' in the global dot com market, shook not only Wall Street but streets all across this nation, where businesses, industries and of course families were forced into foreclosure and eventually many into bankruptcy. Following on the heels of that, our relationships with foreign markets saw a drastic about-face. Where for over 40 years, the United States was a leading exporter of goods, now the markets collapsed and the 'well' dried up. Who would have thought later, that with all this 'wisdom', thousands would again place their life savings and retirement and as did many government entities into the hands of one man, taking no thought of the consequences of such actions should the markets fail again.
We as Believers are challenged by the impending growth of the kingdom of darkness across the earth. God's Grace and Mercy may soon quickly expire. At hand are the precious souls of millions, 'Destined' for an Eternity that makes Hiroshima seem like a firecracker, bang, a little smoke and it's over. Not so, Eternity is undefineable, unestimateable, not linear nor measureable. Reality takes it's heartbeat from Christ Jesus, breath from Holy Spirit and exists under the watchful eye of Jehovah God. Not a sparrow shall fall to the ground, but that our heavenly Father takes notice. Those WORDs to the world seem outdated. Simply useless to the carnal mind, yet TRUTH in the most basic form.
Prophets and prophesies abound, in every imaginative flavor. Seen through 'eyes' that are dimmed by the past, gauged by the present and hopeful for the future, many will eagerly grasp the closest thing that resembles what the need in their life at that time mandates. The Prophets Isaiah, Jeremiah and Ezekiel, gave difficult and harsh WORDs from the LORD, to a wreckless nation. Only returning to a 'heart of fear and reverence' would appease a Holy God, desiring man's Obedience over the senseless but required need of an unblemished sacrifice for Redemption. Whenever the words of a modern day Prophet seem pleasing or 'aligned', many will join ranks, given to 'having the mind of Christ', it is the Unity of the Body of Christ that seems to be moved to a lower level, elevating once again 'divine' direction, yet often so far away from the 'mark', months later seem ridiculous to say the least.
Anyone looking for a sign that will give any indication to the state of God's Plan, need only to listen to HIS Spirit giving utterance, often in a language unknown to their minds, because their 'hearts' were expecting something entirely different. Such a harsh reality, yet many have fallen victim, and aren't discerning enough to realize they were misguided, until the vapors of the latest prophecy have slipped away.
Destiny Becoming Reality, began the moment God removed Adam and Eve from the garden. Reality brought forth from Destiny, will conclude when 'perfection comes' in the lives of Believers. Given to much prayer and fasting, 'till the day and hour our Master returns, we are to be Faithful about HIS business. The harvest is ripe with souls hanging so delicately in the 'balance of Eternity'. Faith, Hope and Love, where Love is as Jesus said, 'the greatest' of these, yet in the past has been the least desired Gift of all. Falling away from Faith in Christ, the absolute TRUTH, one's Hope suffers immensly if not permanently disabled. Love for the brethren has never been at the top of the Prophetic List, but now seems the appropriate time for it to be moved up a notch.
By any estimate of the timeline of Reality, it's existence in the spiritual realm is questionable, seeing as Eternity is beginning without end, something modern day Prophets and prophecies have undoubtedly failed miserably in comprehending, where their time would be better used in directing lost and wayward people towards the Way of Truth and Life, Jesus Christ.

cont'd Prophetic Outlook 2010 - Destiny Becoming Reality..
The Kingdom of God exists in a realm far above man's understanding, yet Christ came as a Prophet foretelling of that day when it would exist and have it's being in the hearts of men. Receptive to HIS WORDs, men are so captivated by the knowledge that Holy Spirit continues revealing the heart of our heavenly Father, further establishing the mindset of Kingdom living, that few fully realize what the Spirit of Prophecy truly is and even less of how it operates in the spiritual realm much less the natural.
Given that Prophets are a vital part of Kingdom movement in the earth, it is Prophesying the impending fate of destruction and severance from the Holy Presence of God that many Prophets of today should spend more time relaying from the throne of God. This is a Truth that was evidenced by the 1st century Believers and will continue as the days are shortened to Christ' return. One WORD of Proclamation going forth of the choice men must make regarding Christ Jesus is worth more in relation to God's Purpose for man, than are unnumbered Prophetic utterances, given so vaguely as having Power to transform a stony heart to fertile soil where the WORD can be Seeded, Nourished and brought to fullness according strictly to the WORDs spoken by Christ Jesus.
All scripture is given for the edification, encouragement and strengthening of both individuals and the corporate Body of Christ. Discerning relativity between the two, often dilutes the worth, yet contextually many argue for the individual and oppose the corporate, based simply upon Paul's encounter with Agabus a prophet. Given the physical nature of what God intended by speaking through Agabus is clear. Diluting the effectiveness because of either the messenger or the recipient's current situation negates completely the value of the prophetic utterance, as the scope of the utterance given is directly subject to the 'heart' of the Prophet.
The future is certain, Eternal and once one has made their choice, it is unlikely a Prophet of today will bring forth the intended conviction due to the fact that God has spoken, Christ Declared and Holy Spirit vigilantly watches over the manifestation with a keen eye to conformity. Rest assured my brethren, nothing mocks God and HIS WORD, for in the moment that occurs, Holy Spirit stands ready to confirm or deny the prophecy in Power as to whether TRUTH is Glorified or the flesh has been appeased.
Find one instance where God gave any of the Apostles or Disciples concise and detailed instruction on something other than that which would bring Honor to HIS Son. Bound by the Authority which Holy Spirit operates under, no Prophet, Apostle, Evangelist, Pastor or Teacher should be considered greater than another, for their anointing is equivalent to being filled with God's enduring WORD, FREE to any who receive with Thanksgiving, nothing held back. Walk by Faith all the days of life, Seek direction only from God's Spirit, Love never failing and one day our eyes will behold the Majesty and Splendor of what Prophecy truly looks like....
