Prophetic Parable Video
 
 
     Those who were raised up under the ministry of the Goodwins developed into similar, but varying, spiritual ministries.  Joe Jordan began to be used in signs, wonders, and to hold services with alot of laughing in the Spirit in them.  Ron Smith developed into his own kind of prophetic ministry.  Kenneth Hagin developed into the full prophet's ministry.  Perhaps the most similar to the Goodwins is the ministry of Don and Beverly Davis.
 
     Although I speak in tongues and interpret in the middle of sermons, like the Goodwins did, they had many personal messages in tongues for individuals, and I have those only from time to time.  Instead, God uses me in what I have come to call "prophetic Parables."  These are messages given through tongues and interpretation and/or prophecy, that the Lord has me to speak and act out in front of people.
 
     I draw the term "prophetic parables" from Hosea 12:10:
 
      "I have also spoken to [you by] the prophets, and I have multiplied visions [for you] and [have appealed to you] through parables acted out by the prophets."--Amplified Bible.

 

     Also we see a New Testament example of the acting out of a word or a parable when Agabus the prophet took Paul's girdle and bound his own hands and feet and told Paul that such bonds awaited him in Jerusalem.  (Acts 21:10-12).

 

     When the Lord uses me to give one of these parables, I do not think carnally and tell myself, "Well, this will be much more dramatic if I act it out."  Nothing like that enters my mind.  The "acting-out" part seems to me to just be another component of the word that I am to give.  Over the years, I have given many such words and parables.  This video though is the only time in which one of these were ever caught on videotape.

 

      I was ministering in April of 2007 at Destined to Win Christian Center in Chicago, IL, pastored by Kelvin Easter.  Unknown to me, the service was videotaped.  I trust seeing this move of the Spirit of God will be a blessing to you, and will inspire you to pursue God for more workings of His Spirit in your own lives and ministries.   

 

     Be Careful!  After the 10-second intro, there is a burst of loud music.  Keep the volume low to begin with, then when you see me appear, turn the volume up, because I begin by speaking in a very low sound level.

     Please Note:  (The number of people downloading from You Tube at the time you are downloading this, and the capacity of your computer will affect how this downloads and plays.  If the video stops abruptly, click on the "Pause" button and allow it to download for about 3 minutes, then click on "Play" and it should continue to play fine for you.  If you start downloading this, and all you get is a black screen with a circle circling around, it means that the downloading is being delayed by too many people being on You Tube at once.  Allow it to continue loading, leave your speakers on, and do something else for a few minutes.  When it finishes downloading, you will hear the video begin, and you can watch it.  Also, this video was filmed in normal church light.  So on older monitors, it will be very dark and all you'll see are mostly shadows moving around.  If this happens, please view the video on a newer monitor, and you'll be able to see it clearly.  You can also increase the video size on your screen by clicking on the button in the right bottom corner of the You Tube tool bar).

 

 

     The Holy Spirit manifests Himself in a beautiful way in this parable.  I trust it will be a blessing to you.
