Prophetic Feeling In the Kingdom

It has been so long since I last posted!  I kept waiting for a large chunk of time to sit down with some tea and write.  The problem is that we are in a season of acceleration and transition, that large chunks of time are hard to come by and nearly non-existent!  That being the case, I am going to try posting small blog entries and musings from my ongoing journey into the gifting of Prophetic Feeling, instead of large chunks.

One of the things I am always asking and seeking from the Father, is greater understanding of Prophetic Feeling and of Feeling in the whole realm of the human experience and the Kingdom.  I rather like to think of it as a constant google search bot, scanning the internet for more revelation on this gift and how it fits into the larger picture.  I have walked through quite a lot of intense experiences in the last weeks and months, and its gotten rather difficult to put them into words but I have come into some meaty and wonderful revelations.  All of them lead back to this wonderful Father we have. He is beyond description, faithful, kind, gentle and kind, passionately pursuing us and pursing our freedom to know him and know all that we are.

The Father gave me another glimpse into his heart and the purpose of Prophetic Feeling as a gift and experience, while I enjoyed some good coffee and watched The Flash on CW.  Yep the Father often speaks to me through all kinds of media and tv shows is one of them.  The show often has prophetic words in the script but you have to be feeling for it.  :-)  Anyway back to my point, the Father invented and created Prophetic Feeling to add to his Kingdom and to express his heart in the universe.  Its hard to put into words but as I watched the show this morning, I understood that just as their are painters and dancers, glass blowers and wood carvers, there must be Feelers. I understood Prophetic Feeling as so much more than sensing the emotions, pain or even joy from others.  Its about honoring the sacred human journeys, moments, experiences and heart cries and joyful flights.  In the wonder of the Kingdom and the spiritual realm, we write with our beings and with our lives. Our Father loves us so very much that he values everything of us, every nano-second of our lives, of our experiences and our thoughts.   Feelers have the opportunity to be amplifiers and painters of the experiences, feelings and the beyond-feeling-or-words moments.

Do you know how artists and painters see color and shades and have words to describe the nuances of how colors and shapes blend and harmonize or contrast with each other, in a way that the artistically ungifted cannot?  In the same way Prophetic Feelers have the capacity and ability to pick up, honor and respond to beautiful delicate shades within moments, experiences and interactions.  Weaving through all our lives and moments is this beautiful, nearly translucent tapestry of colorful threads and gold flecks.  Prophetic Feeling allows us to pick up on some of that, even when we do not understand it or have ways to express it.  You know the watery gaze of a loved that carries regret, love, hope and belief?  We can catch that, honor it and respond accordingly, even when the one speaking does not have words or when others do not sense it.  Honor is key in the Kingdom, it is the action born out of valuing something.  We are the Horton's that can hear the Whos embedded, beneath the surface.

Note Prophetic Feeling can have many different and diverse expressions. No one person has the exact kind of gift, experienced in exactly the same way.  Note also that a capacity for something is a potential that we have the opportunity to grow into and explore.  It's not automatic. Part of the journey of the gifting is learning to understand how your gift works with you, and how to walk in it. Lastly, although, we have the gifting capacity to be the Feeling Horton's of the world, we are not meant to be like Horton and take on, and fix all the trouble of the world.  There is one person who has taken that job and I have discovered that he is not going to be retiring or taking applications anytime soon.

Your gifting has great purpose, it honors the Father's heart when you value and cherish what He does!
