“And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed them. And after they had tarried there a space, they were let go in peace from the brethren unto the apostles.”
Acts 15:32-33 KJV
Then Judas and Silas, who were both prophets, spoke to them affirming words that strengthened the believers. After the four men spent some time there, the church sent them off in peace to return to the apostles in Jerusalem. The ministry of the New Covenant prophet is to speak an abundant and a rich word whose sole purpose is to strengthen the Church. After doing that Judas and Silas went back to the apostles in Jerusalem. The Lord Jesus had said that towards the end of the age many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. Therefore, by their fruit we will recognize the false prophets. In this day of digital media there are so many prophetic voices coming forth. The only way to discern is through our personal meditation of the Word of God and our personal relationship with the resurrected Christ. May we hear Jesus talking directly to us. Hallelujah!
