So, I'm at work (October 27, 2016) and while I'm trying to listen to contemporary Christian music without cringing, I get this overwhelming feeling. It isn't a bad feeling. It's more peaceful and I can't exactly describe it at all, and the peace is so strong that I go into what I like to call "Zen mode" where I lose traction of time because I'm so calm and focused on my current activity. This rarely happens, might I add. So while I'm sitting here wondering what's going on, I start questioning my "gift". I was told years ago by THREE DIFFERENT PEOPLE that I'm a prophet, but up to this day I never saw how or when it would happen. I wondered why none of the other prophets bothered to reach me, and this random thought almost literally echoed in my thought process: "The gift of prophecy can'tbe taught by human means, but by impartation from Spirit to spirit." I'm not sure if hat was Who I think it was, and I'm not sure why I was led to capitalize the "S" in the first "spirit", but I feel like God is tugging at me...not hard but gently. I'm afraid though and I don't know what to do because the last time I got all hype about God, something happened to my (heart-wise and I don't know what) and I started drifting away and soon enough, I completely fell away. Not in a life of utter darkness and doom, but I just went about my life not thinking of Him. Like I said, He's tugging at me and I don't know what to do. I'm honestly scared...

Can you give us some background on your history of faith, the churches you went to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be sure that the spirit you are hearing is the Spirit of Truth. The truth is found in God's Word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But do fear your own understanding of where you are and what God has for you. If you have not come into that which he has called you, you are in no position to know your place. Do not jump to conclusions. Simply be willing to go where he leads you, and make that your daily prayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
