Smith: Ten Signs of a true Prophet

[adminpc]

10 SIGNS OF A TRUE PROPHET'S PROFILE

1. The Gift of Weakness
True prophets receive constant blows to their pride and ego by the Spirit of God to keep them humble. (2 Cor 12:7-10)

2. Burden Bearing
True prophets feel and identify with the hearts and feelings of those around them in profound ways. (Galatians 6:2)

3. Rarely Happy
True prophets are trained in ways that involve deep crushing and breaking. They face constant seasons of crucifixion to produce character adjustments essential to their calling.

4. Over Serious About Life in General
True prophets experience difficulty just laughing and playing. Many are born with a crushing sense of destiny and urgency.

5. Loneliness and Isolation
True prophets live as forerunners, always out of step with those around them. They carry deep questions about life and their calling that they don't share with anyone else.

6. The Fruit of Rejection
True prophets often have not fully made peace with their calling and its consequences and can therefore seem hard at times. They can appear angry and defensive as they are geared in advance for anticipated hurt.

7. Uncommon Experiences
True prophets have dreams, visions, angelic appearances, demonic attacks, and deep spiritual insights.

8. Awareness Deficits
True prophets have little consciousness of what might be viewed by others as weird or strange behavior, but to them is totally normal.

9. Eccentric Personalities
True prophets seldom understand themselves until there is maturity and healing. Often times their personality is shaped by all the rejection they receive because they don't think, feel, or even act like other people.

10. Sinful Self-Protections
True prophets may develop illegal self-protections based in judgments on others and fear of vulnerability. As children, many became the family scapegoat and are set up for ridicule and dark confusion in life.
