Summary
What if prophecy isn't about predicting the future, but about revealing how heaven already sees us? In this teaching, we discover that edification, exhortation, and comfort form the heartbeat of all prophetic speech—designed to build us up, stir us up, and cheer us up. The Spirit moves like a wind, creating momentum toward who we're becoming.
Key Scriptures:
+ 1 Corinthians 14:3. "But one who prophesies speaks to men for edification, exhortation, and comfort."
+ Jeremiah 29:11. "I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord..."
+ John 15:11. "These things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and your joy may be made full."

| 0:00.0 | What if the most powerful prophetic word isn't the one about our future calling, but the one that reveals how God sees us right now? |
| 0:10.6 | Hello friends, welcome back to the Brilliant Perspectives podcast. Today we're exploring the true |
| 0:16.7 | heart of prophecy and why edification, exhortation and comfort aren't just for beginners. |
| 0:24.2 | They're the foundation for every word God speaks over us. Graham invites us into a beautiful |
| 0:30.1 | truth. When God prophesies, he's showing us how we're known in heaven and asking if we'll see |
| 0:36.1 | ourselves the same way. |
| 0:43.5 | There's something to learn here about momentum and about the spirit as a wind that wants to carry us somewhere new. |
| 0:46.1 | Let's jump in with Graham Cook. |
| 0:50.1 | So I'm going to read you something from the Bible. |
| 0:53.5 | And I'm reading from 1 Corinthians 14, first five verses, says this, |
| 1:00.7 | pursue love, yet desire earnestly spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy. |
| 1:11.1 | One who speaks in a tongue doesn't speak to men but to God, |
| 1:15.2 | for no one understands, but in his spirit he speaks mysterious. |
| 1:21.5 | But one who prophesies speaks to men for edification, exhortation, and comfort. One who speaks in a tongue edifies himself. |
| 1:32.3 | One who propheses edifies the church. Now I wish that you all spoke in tongues, but even more |
| 1:41.2 | that you would prophesy. And greater is one who prophesies than one who speaks in tongues |
| 1:48.7 | unless he interprets so that the church may receive edifying. I think many people underrate |
| 1:58.3 | the importance of this type of prophecy, because they think that |
| 2:04.1 | words about a person's calling or vision and destiny are more significant, and therefore |
| 2:11.3 | they are the best words. |
| 2:13.3 | But I think the best word is always the one that's in God's heart for people now, here and now. |
| 2:21.3 | And people relegate edification, exhortation, and comfort prophecy to simple prophecy for beginners. |
