Christian Prophecy from Moses to Paul

Old Testament
Prophets are first mentioned in the Bible with Abraham, who is the founder of all of Christianity, Judaism and Islam; and it given premium importance in the bible. God says, Now Therefore restore the man his wife, for he [Abraham] is a prophet.
The first time Abraham says the word Prophet the word is connected to prayer. Being a prophet requires a solid prayer life. This is one of the most important and neglected elements of being a prophet and cannot be stressed enough. It is best exhibited by a simple and quite easy-to-remember equation:
PRAYER + PROPHET = CHRISTIAN PROPHECY
It is that simple: A prophet needs prayer. Christian prophecy requires an open channel with God and prayer is (by far) the best way to know you are communicating with the Lord. Without this connection to God, the prophet is without the gift of Christian prophecy; the prophet will not hear the message of the Lord with clarity. Clarity is incredibly important to a prophet because the line between a false prophet and a real prophet is a thin one in the eyes of many though it is easily seen by God.
Prophets all share different roles today as they did before. Prophecy is practiced in different ways by different individuals. God takes advantage of our diversity through Christian prophecy. Some Prophets in the Old Testament were leaders of the Israelites: Moses, Samuel, Elijah and Elisha. A prophet is usually a supportive ministry but currently a prophet can lead a church or have a leadership role inside of it. In other words, not every leader is a prophet but some prophets are leaders. There are also many prophets which directly wrote to the people of Israel. Prophetic writers include those who had a great impact on the destiny of the people of Israel in the Old Testament and also; Minor Prophets, whose impact was not felt as deeply, but were people of the Lord and made holy prophecies.
New Testament
God ordains Christian Prophecy in the New Testament book of Ephesians.
And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.
After Christ came to earth, prophecy also played a crucial role. There are different types of Prophets in the New Testament: prophets of exhortation, prophets who foretell events, and prophets of confirmation.
When Agabus sees the spirit that Paul would be bound by the Jews at Jerusalem; this is an example of foretelling. The Bible says:
And as we tarried there many days, there came down from Judaea, a certain prophet, named Agabus.
And when he was come unto us, he took Pauls girdle, and bound his own hands and feet ,and said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the
Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.
Acts 21: lO-11
The book of Acts depicts Prophets of exhortation; which means Prophets who fortify the faith of others: Judas and Silas, who themselves were prophets, said much to encourage and strengthen the believers

The Practice of Excellence – A Step Forward On Our Conversion Journey
The practice of excellence presumes that there are truths that are not arbitrary. It assumes that there is some truth or standard outside the individual person, (like the Ten Commandments) that exists, that can be discovered.

God does not need your money – He owns it all
Give to God and God will give back to you in many folds return is an absurd teachings. God owns the entire whole and he does not need your money. If God wants to get something done he can and will. All he has to do is to cause some great pagan kings sleepless nights until he fulfills God’s wishes. Look at King Nebchadnezzar and King Cyprus, they were both pagans yet they served the Lord God Almighty and acknowledges that he is God.

The Heart of Thanksgiving is a Hand That Receives
A man of God once said, “if you want to know a person that is an ingrate or full of ingratitude, is the one that always carry long face whenever you see him or her”. I seem to angry with him, because those people in that mood are always of thinking of what God has not done for them and fail to appreciate Him for what He has done.
