Christian Women in Leadership

Angela's prophecy

This is a personal prophecy given for a young woman in the church, Angela at the prophecy conference last February. She was a couple of people in front of me in the line, so I heard most of it when it was initially given, and I was really struck with many of the things that was spoken over her. So, I told Angela that I would put it on my blog so that people could pray for her. Here it is:

"Father, I thank you for Angela...and I thank you for the strength that is...Angela you are very strong. You really are very strong. Many people can lean on the strength that is within you. I heard the Lord saying worship and music are all over you. You are a worshipper in the house of the Lord. And the Lord has gifted you greatly in the area of the arts, I see creative arts flowing out of you, tremendously. But I also see training and equipping for you. I heard the Lord saying, that He is going to make a way for you, and He is calling you to be trained and equipped for the work of the Kingdom and the work of the ministry.

There is a desire within you to serve the Lord, but there is many question marks within you as to whether it is possible or not, which areas, how to do this. And I heard the Lord saying, leave the details to Him but prepare yourself to serve Him. You are called for ministry, you are called to full-time ministry. You are called to be in the Kingdom in many places. I heard the Lord saying that there is a _______ within you, you can really put things together, you have an eye for detail, and you can be trusted...but there is a danger that you can be boxed in, into areas of helping and administration.

And I heard the Lord saying, be very careful that people don't box you in those areas, because there will be a time when those skills that you have are very, very necessary. But God is going to use those skills in the area of building up of the Kingdom because God has put detail within you, He has put the ability to...you are very...you can observe, you can watch, you can notice many things that many people can miss...The gift of discernment within you is very strong. And I saw you, and I saw like, you know, how jewelers have these little teeny glasses. you have seen them? They are little teeny, and they can see, you know, flaws and little things that nobody else can see. And I heard the Lord saying, that is the depth of the detail of the discernment that he has given you. the ability to see little things that others will pass by, but you will not be able to pass it by. And there will be times where everybody else is going to say, "Okay, let's do, let's go and do this or that," and you will be the one who will say, "No, it cannot be done. I just know it cannot be done because of this or because of that..."

But I also heard the Lord saying that that gift of discernment within you is going to take you to be a great problem solver. You are going to bring solutions to many, many problems, situations and ______. You are one who is going to bring restoration to people, and I see you building bridges. And I heard the Lord saying you are going to be a bridge builder among many, many people, even in relationships and family situations. I saw counseling in you, and I saw a counselor rising up. And I heard the Lord saying, you are one who is going to bring restoration to families. and restoration to marriages. Marriage counseling is going to be a very important part in your life. "

This is part one, to 2:51 minutes on the tape. I think there is three more minutes left. I will have to transpose the rest when I have more time. I feel a burden of sorts to pray for Angela, that all of this will come to pass, and come to true fulfillment.

I particularly don't like the getting "boxed in" temptation for people to put her in, which is commen, I think, for women to get put into. Esp. because she is kind and good-natured. But clearly, she has many, many other abilities/skills besides administration. I guess I feel a burden to pray for her because she was a few people in front of me, or because some of her prophecy resinated with me, too.
