Prophetic Act & Declaration

Generally, when we refer to a word or sign as “prophetic”, we mean that word or sign speaks of something that will take place in the future (foretelling), or that it declares something for and of God in the present tense (forth telling). Both types contain a supernatural revelation, for they both reveal things or conditions of people or of circumstances that cannot possibly be conceived with the natural mind.

Prophecies may be of either one or both types. Both has a forerunning or preparatory purpose in the plans of God. Prophecies of the first nature (foretelling) tell of what the Spirit of God is doing that will manifest itself in the natural sometime in the future. One example would be the instance in which John the disciple spoke of the Lord’s return in the Last Day. It is something that will take place in the future, when we do not know. John described how it was going to be like, but we can only visualize it in our minds now, since the events will only take place naturally in the future when the Lord returns. Forth telling, on the other hand, is of a different nature. Here, the prophecies may not be anything to do with the future at all, but are prophecies nevertheless. The revelation contained in forth telling reveals the mind of God in the present circumstances.

Besides the usual oral utterances that people commonly recognize and accept as prophecies, the prophetic ministry may also deliver divine representations in other ways. One of the most frequently demonstrated forms of prophecies recorded in the Bible is prophetic acts or declarations.

A prophetic act is something done (at God’s directions) in the natural (physical) realm that supports God’s workings in the spiritual realm, to bring forth results that would be manifested in the natural realm. Such prophetic ministry becomes the forerunner of that move of God that opens the channel for His glory and power to be released that will affect our natural environment. It prepares the way for God to work His will on earth, for the prophetic acts become the means by which His power is brought forth. However, we must always remember that the prophetic ministry does not hand down formulae and methods as precedents to follow. Prophetic acts that might have yielded fruits of great glory are of no special significance if not ordered by God.

Let us explore some instances from the Bible on the demonstrations of prophetic acts and declarations:

1.The Jericho Walk

By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they were encircled for seven days. By faith the harlot Rahab did not perish with those who did not believe, when she had received the spies with peace. (Hebrews 11:30-31, NKJV)

When it was time for Joshua to attack the city of Jericho, the Lord gave Israel a series of prophetic acts to perform: circle the city once a day for six days, and on the seventh day, circle it seven times, sound the trumpets, shout, and then expect the walls of the city to fall down. Joshua and Israel faithfully performed the prophetic acts, Rahab faithfully brought her entire family into her house, the walls of the city fell, the city of Jericho was destroyed, and Rahab and her family were saved.

What lessons can we learn from Joshua, Rahab, and the destruction of Jericho? First, the Lord honors the true faith of any individual, without any respect to occupation, race, or nationality. Second, faith depends on the faithfulness, integrity, and ability of the object of that faith. Third, the reward of faith depends on meeting the conditions of that faith. Fourth, the performance of a prophetic act constitutes a statement of faith, with the reward being proportional to the faithful and enthusiastic execution of the vision received.

2.Moses’ Rod

In leading Israel out of the land of slavery, Moses performed many signs and wonders with the rod that God had given him. Out of the several times in which Moses fulfilled the purpose of God through prophetic acts worked with the rod, two instances probably register most vividly in our consciousness. One was the occasion when Moses parted the waters of the Red Sea by stretching out his rod over the waters according to God’s directives (Ex.14:16,21), and the other was when he raised the rod in his arms to secure victory for Israel while she battled the Amalekites (Ex. 17:9-13). Both instances are forth telling in their prophetic nature, since in the acts themselves, God’s will and power was made known and manifested.

In the second instance, whenever Moses raise up his rod, Israel mounted the Amalekites, but when the rod is lowered each time Moses let his arms down, the Amalekites overcame Israel. Such physical manifestations show that the lifting of the rod must bear some significance in the spiritual realms, though how so we are not able to explain. It is not always possible to fully justify or defend the sense behind prophetic acts using our natural minds. However, where the Spirit’s leading in executing a particular act is direct and certain, the human understanding of it i.e. whether we see the purpose in it, is inconsequential. While a comprehension of the purpose behind a prophetic act will not add to its glory, a lack of understanding will also not undermine God’s intended result in it.

3.Elisha & King Joash’s Arrow

In 2 Kg. 13:14-19, Elisha was drawing his last breaths as King Joash visited and wept over him. The king’s tears probably arose from the threat of an imminent loss of a spiritual figure at just the time when Israel suffered hard under the oppression of her enemies. Most probably aware of the king’s anxiety over his nation’s security, Elisha began to direct him in saving his people from their oppressors. From the sickbed where he lay, the prophet instructed the king to release arrows eastwards from a bow. Apparently, this was a prophetic act that meant that Israel would triumph over her enemies, the Syrians, who were occupying Israel’s land in the east of Jordan.

Following that, Elisha gave instructions for another prophetic act:

“The arrow of the Lord’s deliverance and the arrow of deliverance from Syria; for you must strike the Syrians at Aphek till you have destroyed them”.

Having said that to the king, Elisha instructed the King to strike the ground with arrows. Had King Joash been more perceptive, he would have noted the connection between this instruction and Elisha’s earlier words about “striking the Syrians at Aphek till you have destroyed them.” He would also realize that Elisha was literally meaning that the striking of the ground was equivalent to striking the Syrian army! Not realizing the divine significance of the act, however, King Joash dealt only three blows to the ground – to the reproach of Elisha who told him that because he struck the ground only three times, therefore Syria would suffer defeat not more than three times; while had the king struck the ground repeatedly Syria would have been rendered beyond recovery and would cease to be of any further threat to Israel.

Losing his country’s peace and independence to another sovereignty was a costly price to the king, owing to his lack of understanding and therefore obedience, to a divine direction. Had King Joash perceived the import of Elisha’s words correctly, he would have preserved his country’s peace. The measure of victory we gain over our enemies comes from the obedience we give to divine instructions.
