    About this ebook

    Understanding the Prophetic is so relevant for this time in the history of mankind. It unfolds the movement from the church age into the Kingdom Age; from religion to relational truth; and from living a limited existence to subduing and possessing the earth. You will gain Kingdom knowledge that will equip you to receive the greatest transfer of Spirit wealth of the ages.

    Understanding the Prophetic will catapult you into your place of ruling and reigning with the King of Kings! You would do an injustice to the courtroom of your soul if you dismiss an opportunity to allow Christ to establish His order and His truth through an understanding of the prophetic.

      Prophet Kim Clement

      Understanding the Prophetic is a must read for all who seek to learn more regarding prophets and the prophetic ministry as a whole. Sandra unveils a well-assembled book that provides insight into the various aspects of what we understand today as the prophetic community. Sandra also presents an excellent and consise explanation of the many questions facing the Office of Prophet and the prophetic generation that is emerging today. Every believer should read this book! -Prophet Kim Clement Prophetic Image Expressions

      Charlotte Ocha, An Elementary School Teacher

      Understanding the Prophetic is so pertinent for end-time believers. You will gain access into kingdom information; spiritual weaponry, warfare, discerning of spirits, your identity and authority in the LORD… so much vital information necessary for you to find your place in the establishment of the government of HIS Kingdom. UTP is a MUST!!! You would do an injustice to the courtroom of your soul if you dismiss an opportunity to allow Christ to establish His order and His truth through an understanding of the prophetic.

      FOREWORD

      God is doing a magnificent work in the earth. We’ve entered into a season of revival which is coming to the whole world. I’ve been in some of the most extraordinary moves of God on the face of the earth that have ever been recorded; and we are NOW seeing a change in the style of the move of the Holy Spirit. This book notes that change, and highlights some of the ways in which we are experiencing those extraordinary moves of God.

      God is always moving, and as opposed to seeing quantative miracles, we are seeing quality. We’re seeing the kinds of miracles that skeptics cannot deny have taken place. We’re seeing the kinds of miracles whereby villages, cities, and even nations are being transformed. Also churches are beginning to grow, not by our efforts, but by the kinds of people God is sending. Because, Except the LORD build the house, they that build it, labor in vain.

      We’re seeing the kinds of people that are responsible and mature, grown up in the things of God, to handle and manage responsibly the investment of the new wine God has given. It has to do with our capacity to release FAITH. We must walk in an understanding of who we are and God’s purpose for our life; and then we can posture ourselves for great things. On the other hand, God does not have a need or want to be understood. The Bible has 66 books, and in all those books, we do not have or know the vastness or entirety of God. God does not want to be understood! Obadiah has only 21 verses and is valuable as a book in the Bible. As Obadiah is a book within a book, so Understanding the Prophetic is a book within the confines of what God has spoken through His prophet. Truth is endless, because everything God has spoken has never been recorded. Who can know all truth? Even God Himself doesn’t know how BAD He is! Ephesians 1:19 tells us that He exceeds His own greatness.

      We cannot know eveything about a Being that is omi-potential (omnipotent), has unlimited potential; that is omni-science (omniscient), has all knowledge of all sciences, and is omni-present, is everywhere at the same time. All we need to know is what He has given us to know. God does not want to be understood! He wants to be believed! His WORD brings to us the place of belief and faith. Without faith it is impossible to please God.

      God calculates our gift, our qualifications, and our ability to empower those around us. When God places an individual on the earth, He counts what it would cost to maintain him/her. God counted the cost for everything that we are called to do, and paid for it in full. If we can walk in increased faith, we can have anything, and then God will work in multiplication. He will multiply His investment in us to empower others. If we can believe the WORD, we can have metastasized blessings. We have to have revelation knowledge. Anytime anyone is promoted in the kingdom, it is because of revelation.

      When we are empowered by the preached word, a word has opened up to us and we have faith to believe what was spoken. In the beginning was the revelation (WORD), and the revelation was with God. Understanding the Prophetic loved Sandra before she loved it. It was looking for her even before she found it and began writing this book. There is something in the revelatory realm of God that is looking for us, and it loves us more than we love it. You cannot love a revelation that is unborn to time if you cannot love what He is saying NOW! You’ll be great in your future because you love your present. If you can love what God is saying right NOW, at this moment, then you are being positioned for what you cannot see. The things that you are looking for—what you cannot see, are the things that are great; the eternal things. The revelation is looking for you right now; to find you, to liberate you; and once you get that revelation, it is going to position you for the next dimension in your life.

      Bishop Tudor Bismark

      PREFACE

      The world at large is moving at a cataclysmic rate; racing itself into the portals of eternity. There is an urgency to get things done in a hurry. There is a certain expectancy that the whole earth senses. There is such an emphasis on achieving goals and possessing things that we must stop and focus on that which is eternal. The Bible says in Matthew 24:35, Heaven and earth will pass away, but My Word will by no means pass away. The need to recover is a genuine one; however, we need to define exactly what it is we are to recover. In Isaiah 61, it is clearly shown that the Anointing is released so that the Gospel is preached to the poor, the
