About this ebook
5 Stars at Readers' Favorite! -- "Lee Ann Rubsam has given us another spiritual gem.... I highly recommend The Spirit-Filled Guide to Personal Prophecy to anyone interested in the gift of prophecy."
Personal prophecy can, and should be, a great blessing from the Lord to His Church. It can also be an effective evangelism tool, when used rightly. But, as with any of the gifts of the Spirit, it must be cherished and guarded carefully. Those of us who are releasing prophecy to others must watch over the attitudes of our own hearts, so that our words are genuine and pure. And those of us who are on the receiving end of a prophetic word must use wisdom in discerning whether it is truly from the Lord or not, as well as maturity in how we respond to it.
The Spirit-Filled Guide to Personal Prophecy explains how to discern personal prophetic words which you receive from others and what to do with those words once you've got them. It also gives practical guidelines for how to keep out of trouble when you are prophesying personal words to others.

About the Author
Introduction
In 1 Corinthians 12:8-10, the apostle Paul listed nine manifestations, or gifts, of the Holy Spirit, which were meant to occur regularly and with power in the Church. Over the many centuries which followed, as the Church became corrupted with unbelief and compromise, these manifestations were not seen nearly as much as they had been at the beginning. Fortunately, the Lord began to bring them to the forefront once again in the twentieth century. Prophecy is among them, and one of the ways it is showing up quite frequently today is in personal prophetic words for individuals.
Personal prophecy can and should be a great blessing from the Lord to His Church. It can also be an effective evangelism tool, when used rightly. But, as with any of the gifts of the Spirit, it must be cherished and guarded carefully. Because we are human and therefore open to error, there is always the opportunity for misuse and even for a counterfeit copy to show up. Those of us who are releasing prophecy to others must watch over the attitudes of our own hearts, so that our words are genuine and pure. And those of us who are on the receiving end of a prophetic word must use wisdom in discerning whether it is truly from the Lord or not, as well as maturity in how we respond to it. If we don't, we will end up disappointed, disillusioned, and perhaps stuck in the middle of big mistakes which we wish we had never made.
In this book, I will give some tips for how to discern personal prophetic words which you receive from others and what to do with those words once you've got them.
