Prophetic People are often misunderstood and also can misunderstand those who don't get it so this is an invaluable resource you are providing the world with. I've got the book and I can't recommend it too highly. Prophetic People have needed your wisdom and insight so it excellent that you have captured it so well. If anyone reading this blog hasn't already bought the book, do it now. You will not regret it. Helen has captured, through sharing her own journey, a wealth of understanding and wisdom we all benefit from. As for the questions you asked, for me, joy comes from seeing other's lives changed for the better. I especially like that moment when the light bulb comes on and you can see it in their face. Revelation. They can never be the same again because they now know something supernatural. You can't take that moment back. The saddest moment is the person who refuses to grow. They don't embrace the prophetic or the supernatural. They live a smaller life in a smaller world. In a sense they are the captive, not of circumstance, but their own mindset is the cage they suffer within. I can't say I have ever got into trouble. I do understand that prophetic people are not infallible. You have to share what you have and allow time for it to process and refine. And accept feedback too from others. Mostly I feel that I nudge people in the right direction and encourage. Although the dictionary defines Prophetic as either pertaining to a prophet or their prophetic message (that's a circular argument if ever I read one) or else predictive or portentous (meaning declaring something will happen ahead of the time it does happen) I usually just think of it as declaring something of the greater supernatural kingdom of heaven here on earth. How do others define what they mean by Prophetic and being Prophetic People? Ray Keefe http://www.successful.com.au Hi Helen,

What a fantastic start you have made. Prophetic People are often misunderstood and also can misunderstand those who don’t get it so this is an invaluable resource you are providing the world with.

I’ve got the book and I can’t recommend it too highly. Prophetic People have needed your wisdom and insight so it excellent that you have captured it so well.

How do others define what they mean by Prophetic and being Prophetic People?

There's nothing that compares to the look on someone's face when God is speaking to them personally about something that the person prophesying wouldn't know. I've just got to remember to keep my eyes open to see it! As for the lesson... that is so true, will get you to do a guest post for me sometime on this!
