Topic : WILDERNESS TRAINING. This Is The Place Where God Draws His Prophets To Crucify And Crush Ambitions, Pride, Arrogance, Carnality, And Anything That Will Get In The Way Of Them Becoming A Pure Vessel For His Spirit To Move Through...

The training ground for all called prophets of God is the wilderness. This is the place where God draws His prophets to crucify and crush ambitions, pride, arrogance, carnality, and anything that will get in the way of them becoming a pure vessel for His Spirit to move through. It is in the wilderness where the personal desires of prophets die and the desires of God come alive. Craving platforms, microphones, and a travel itinerary is crucified and crushed in the wilderness.

Biblically speaking, there is a calling, consecration, and then a commissioning. Too many believe that because God has called them, they have now been commissioned into prophetic ministry. This is not the truth and forsakes the most important and crucial development of the prophet/ God's servant; consecration. The consecration process, which will be repeated numerous times throughout the life of a prophet/ God's servant is known as the wilderness.

One of the greatest pitfalls of the prophetic ministry is, when prophets refuse wilderness training. When prophets are not trained in hiddenness, they crave the platform and know nothing of the prayer room. They will chase after the applause of men because they have never heard the Father affirming them in secret.

When prophets refuse wilderness training, they will desire fame and fortune over holiness and repentance. Prophets that refuse wilderness training will tear down with their character what their prophetic gifting has built. The wilderness is where God creates a place inside of the prophets/ servants for them to carry His Heart with undefiled intentions and motives. Prophets/ servants of God that have not been wilderness trained make prophetic ministry all about them, their influence, and their success. Prophets/ God's servants that have been wilderness trained do not fear men, but live for the Glory of God and value the secret place over any public space.

Have a blessed and joyful time!!
