End-Time Prophets

First of all, what is a Prophet?

A prophet is an advocator for the will of God, and a predictor of future events. Prophets are advocates for the Holy Spirit and serve as conduits who freely pass along knowledge of God's will. How this prophetic knowledge is passed along to others occurs through both utterances and teachings, and varies from person to person. As a result, sometimes music is used while prophetic words are being released.

Prophetic knowledge which is given to those who trust in the Lord and vice-versa (which is important), often requires an interpretation by the one who initially received the gift of knowledge. From my humble opinion, it is likely ill-advised for a third party to interpret one's personal experiences with the Lord. We are all unique, and God speaks to each of us in a particular tone that we can relate to. Ultimately, the truth is what aligns with the B-I-B-L-E.

Although certain themes of prophetic knowledge might appear similar from one prophet to the next, what's dropped into one's spirit cannot be fully explained through words directed towards the human ear.


Prophets of the Bible

A good portion of the Bible was written directly out of the words of both Israel's and Judah's prophets. The major prophets of the Bible were Daniel, Ezekiel, Jeremiah and Isaiah of the Old Testament. These are referred to as major prophets, mostly due to the number of pages which were set aside for them in the Bible. If we could speak with peoples of Biblical times past, they would likely have different opinions.

Minor prophets in the Bible, are those such as Habakkuk and Zechariah. There was a vast number of prophets who lived during biblical times who were not mentioned by name within the Bible, but were likely quite influential during their time.


Prophets for the "Last Days"

I can't give you all the reasons why God assigns duties to his prophets, but I can certainly give you a couple of them. First of all, prophecy increases one's faith. Not only for the prophet's audience, but for the prophet as well. Secondly, prophets are here to warn folks of upcoming events.

My current understanding is that there are periods within history where prophets are needed more than others. Week after week, world events are changing rather quickly right now, and we are living in dangerous times.

Regardless of anyone's specific title, and as a regular reader of the Bible - I can comfortably attest to the following. The Bible is full of knowledge, which includes prophetic events. Therefore, anyone who regularly reads it, begins to understand future events and soaks them in. Similar to osmosis, it's just a matter of time.

Please read these following verses, and take them as my closing remarks on this particular topic.


Acts 2: KJV: (17) And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: (18) And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:

First Corinthians 2 KJV: (9) But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
