Prophecy matters because God Himself says it matters. Prophecy is not a game, nor a hobby, nor a codebook to unlock the future.It is the self-revelation of the living God, given for the good of His people.

Every generation must choose which path to follow — the one grounded in Scripture, or the one swept along by spiritual storms. Only the Shepherd leads safely.

The prophet Elijah was exhausted. He had faced down the prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel, prayed fire down from heaven, slew the false prophets, and then fled from Jezebel’s wrath into the wilderness.He sat beneath a juniper tree and prayed, “It is enough; now, O LORD, take my life.”

The question is not just, “Is this allowed?” but rather, “Does this glorify Christ?” Paul* (5-67) commands, “So glorify God in your body” (1 Cor. 6:20).
