How much stock do you put in prophecy?
How about prophecies made about your ministry or the direction of your life??? Do you think of them as road-signs "silently" guiding your life or milemarkers "confirming" what had been previously said?
I, of course, believe that prophecies are still for today.... and could be right or wrong depending on who said them.... what are some guidelines that you use in deciding whether to write them off or not....

Prophecies as in foretelling or preaching with fervency?

I only accept a prophecy toward myself if God has spoken to me first...he then confirms it through the man of God in prophecy.

Foretelling is very interesting. When I here it, IF it lines up with the word, I accept it at face value. Otherwise, I just say thanks and ignore.

I get a lot of "prophetic words" and I appreciate the fact God seems to single me out for this often. Most of the time the ones that bear witness with me are the ones that confirm what I've been speaking to God about or feeling like He's been dealing with me about.
I've had people read my mail to the point I was just blown away. God definitely had to have spoken to them and showed them what was going on in my life. There's no other way they could know such intimate details of conversations and dialogue going on between the Lord and I. Just amazing!
Then there are others that I just kind of say, "Okay .... if this is God, fine. If it isn't no big deal. My confidence is in God - not man!"

The gift of prophecy is for edification (building up), exhortation (stirring up), and comfort (cheering up or lifting up). Prophecy needs to be judged by the written Word. Prophetic utterances are on a par with testimonies, preaching, and teaching. A person speaks as they think God is guiding them and therefore can be can be affected by the humanness of the person speaking. Prophecy can be ministered vocally as in a testimony or sermon, in a letter or card, in a phone call, in a prayer, etc.
