"Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not LOVE, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal." - I Cor. 13:1
(republish/revisiting)
As I was communing with Lord, I was shown in a vision a person seated
and alone, and this person appeared as if almost a bronze statue to me,
but this person was definitely moving, breathing, and alive, living. In
many ways this person looked like that statue of 'The Thinker' if you
have seen that, however this person I saw had both hands to the sides of their head, elbows on
knees, as if in stress with some anguish, and deep contemplations. I saw
tears falling from beneath their cupped bent face.
And the Lord spoke to me saying,
'This is my prophet who is tried in My intimate Fire and thus burnished
in appearance...inside and outside. My prophet is proven of My Love.
... Look again, daughter'
I did so. I watched and saw this lone person, this prophet, arise to
their feet throwing their arms out straight to each side, palms up,
lifting their face fully heavenward. What a face! I will not even try to
describe, but as I watched all this I also saw the light dance upon
different areas of the burnished bronze appearance of this prophet, as
this bronze person stood and raised their arms -- and I could see some
of the prophets bones exposed intermittently, in these high-points of
light as the prophet moved. I saw then, these bones were white-hot with
heat, as had been Jeremiahs. - end of vision.
Jeremiah, "Then I said, "I will not
make mention of Him, Nor speak anymore in His name." But His word was in
my heart like a burning fire Shut up in my bones; I was weary of
holding it back, And I could not." - Jer. 20:9
This is what I've understood as I've asked The Lord to open more to me
of this brief, yet very 'impression-ed into me' vision.....
SOMETIMES this is the way of The Word in a prophet (not always nor every time, but sometimes)
When a prophet receives a Word to give the people, what most of us may
not know of (unless you are a prophet, that is ), is that the prophet
often has suffered with weeping much, mixed with glory filled
exhilaration's, in wrestling, in wakefulness, in joy, in interceding,
during sleep, anguish, dull moments of tension, all wrapped in great
Love of God, HIS' Voice to prophet friend plus the more, much more.
For the Word from The Lord comes to, and then later through the servant
prophet with a fiery burnished hot personal price.
This is "Love" (I Cor. 13:1) expressed in passion; Extreme burned Love
for God first and foremost in the prophet and as expressed by the
prophet to HIS' Lord and God, and then following this, The Word is shed
abroad in love for the brethren saints, and then too in love spoken to
the world and the lost.
Even though you or I may not see the preceding God' 'process in the
prophet' as the Word is forming unto birth; The prophet -- the people
wept over, and the cries to The Lord by the prophet being implored, for
HIS' Justice with Mercy, the prophetic Word being worked into the
prophet thoroughly and hotly by God beforehand, this is so.
We may be privileged to hear and receive the finished Word, or a portion
of it ....... Word from our Lord, when shared through HIS' prophet
messenger.
These God "working's" of great pain, anguish with exultation's
interspersed in the servant-prophet-messenger, are hidden from most
people's view - for he/she (prophet) will not speak much concerning that
part - - Later, no one is listening to the prophet on personal levels
much in the aftermath of delivering God's message, because the people
are occupied with the prophecy, 'Word of God' received .... and thus it
is, and rightly so.
The true prophetic Word of God through our Lord's servant prophets,
whether joy-filled or the heavy and hard to take, and/or both,,,,,,,,,,
will be sure......as it comes through the burnished servant minister,
the prophet, at great personal cost ........ and will plant
piercingly into the hearts of men and women of good soil.
Having shared this vision and the further, I want to emphasize, that the
prophet will NOT be alone from other saints in his or her life, anymore
than any of us are to be separate from one another in Christ' Body
today. For how can Christ Body not function together?? Simple truth, -
Eph. 4:16. But, the receiving and working out of the Word; God to
prophet, is most lonely of human influence. -- even as this bronzed-like
shining person I was shown in vision was seated alone. One on one, God'
Word and message to prophet, and thus it is, and again, most rightly
so.
Dear reader, if you meet and hear 'a prophet', do listen and weigh, also
considering the 'prophet' with some understanding; understanding some
of the fire of Christ Jesus which this one, the prophet, holds in their
very heart and bones at some great personal cost's. -- of our LORD's
Love and doing's.
Our Lord dearly Loves His servant messengers (see as reference: the whole bible :-).
Jesus speaks,
"He who receives a prophet in the name
of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward. And he who receives a
righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous
man's reward." - Mt. 10:41 .

Thank you folks for responding - it is always helpful and encouraging to know that something shared online speaks to others, as well as to ourselves. We/(me too) do not always hear-back, and that non-response too, can be a lesson in faith : ). Yet, it is really good to get feedback once in awhile, our Lord knows this too ... Bless you in your walk In Christ Jesus our Lord!
