The Seer: Origins, Expressions, and Modern Misunderstanding 101

Background Knowledge: In recent years, there has been a noticeable resurgence in the use of the word seer. As the modern church slowly moves away from demonizing the term and begins reclaiming it as part of the prophetic office, the origin of the prophetic office there remains a significant gap in our understanding. Many still lack clarity about who a seer truly is, their function, their responsibility, and their relevance in today’s church. Over the past few decades, we have grown from merely acknowledging prophetic people, or prophetic voices but we have come to recognize individuals as Prophets. Though we have arrived at this juncture, there is far more that we need to uncover and learn. Historically, the term Sons of the Prophets was given to those who are s piritual children or students of the prophets they were given charged to maintain and preserve prophetic history. In that same tradition, a Prophets wife is automatically a Prophetess, not because she prophesied, but because...

Revealed Power

       Beloved, let me remind you of this notable truth, "What eye did not see, and ear did not hear, and upon the heart of man came not up, What God did prepare for those living in Him, BUT to us did God reveal through His Spirit, for the Spirit all things doth search, even depths of God." 1 Corinthians 2:9-10 Every single promise, thought, wonderful act, and plan for your life has been revealed to you.

The 5W’s of intention

We live in a day and age where everyone wants to become SOMETHING, making a meaningful impact that will leave their names printed on the shores of history. Honestly, nothing is wrong with wanting to leave a legacy; the Bible actually calls you a good man: “A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children’s children…” Proverbs 13:22. My belief is that we must first come into the identity of the WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, and WHY. All of these come back to the intention of leaving a lasting impact. Something I had to learn recently was the power of intention and my time. The time we are given is valuable, and as the aphorism goes, “Time waits for no man.” Therefore, who is the Who behind my intention? Who am I called to? Knowing this is critical to one’s growth. You’re called to a particular people and only to them. Then we need to know the What. What are we called to do? Knowing the people is one thing, but everyone is NOT the same and may require uniquely packaged items. However, from yo...
