Heb.11:3 - "By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible."
This is the process whereby the creative power of God manifests through us. The prophetic gift "understands" how to frame Holy Spirit's word (rhema) so that others can step into its reality.
First of all, one must comprehend the process of taking information about God - head knowledge - and turning that information into an experience in Him. The pews are filled with people who are "always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth" (2Tim.3:7). Knowledge requires an experience in God. Inherent in knowledge is faith; and, faith requires an action to manifest a kingdom experience. This is a ministry role of the prophet - to provide a platform for people to begin to exercise Holy Spirit gifts, making them become real in people's lives, changing information into experience. Here, those experiencing the reality of God's truth are never again at the mercy of religionists who only have their doctrines with no Holy Spirit experience to back them up. From experience, a believer graduates into knowledge. Here, one begins to know how Holy Spirit speaks to them individually and how He works through them as they minister to others. After all, that's what the gifts are all about - to demonstrate the love of God to others. Knowledge soon transcends into understanding. Now, when a person understands, they have the potential to replicate the power of Holy Spirit on purpose. Understanding truly means ministering from the "Glory Zone" of God's presence.
The scripture above states that "by faith we understand that the world was framed by the word (rhema) of God". In Whose image and likeness are we created? The very process in which God created is the same process for us. The first aspect of creation is found in Gen.1:2. "The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters." The next verse says that God then spoke and light was created. The Kingdom Principle of Predisposition requires for Holy Spirit to be present before creative power (rhema) is released. This simply means that creativity is a product of glory. Without the glory of God resident in a situation (in you); no creative power can be released. You see, God framed the worlds by His rhema; and we frame our world by our hearing Holy Spirit's voice and re-sounding it - speaking creative power into situations. We also see His works and act them out as well. This is the spirit of prophecy (Rev.19:10). It is intercession in action - "paga" at work creating kingdom manifestations as we instantaneously obey the Spirit of God.
When we "frame" God's word (rhema); we are, in fact, "packaging it" in such a way that we can release it ourselves. Each of us "packages" differently, that's why New Covenant prophetic words are to be judged (1Cor.14:29).Each of us, in all likelihood, will have a slightly different aspect of God's rhema - His revelation. This is what we call the "body ministry". One will have a piece of the puzzle, and another a second piece - and so on, until the picture is crystal clear. Then, in agreement, prophetic pronouncements can be released and the manifestation process started. What I have just briefly described are PIT Crews (Prophetic Intercessory Teams) in action. Here, no fear-based utterances normally issued in typical "prayer meetings" negate the "word" of God. God responds to faith, not fear!
As we "frame God's word", we enter into the "Glory Zone" where no time and distance constraints exist. Isa.48:3 explains, "I have declared the former things from the beginning; they went forth from My mouth, and I caused them to hear it. Suddenly I did them, and they came to pass." When we sow into the glory, a spontaneous harvest comes back. Again, Isaiah explained this process, "You have heard; see all this. And will you not declare it? I have made you hear new things from this time, even hidden things, and you did not know them. They are created now and not from the beginning; and before this day you have not known them, lest you should say, 'Of course I knew them.'" (Isa.48:6-7). Holy Spirit entreats us, "Will you not declare what I am saying?" Holy Spirit is ready right now! Once He speaks, the spiritual reality is created. Our part, as intercessors is to "frame His words" and release them in earth, act them out and intercede until the manifestation comes forth. We become the "bridge of faith" which carries the reality of the "word' from the spirit realm to the natural. We have one foot planted in the eternal promises and word of God, and the other in the messes of life with the answer traveling through us transforming messes into miracles.
Paul saw this and wrote, "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them." God's promise has already been "prepared beforehand". God is waiting on us to "frame it" - then birth it through intercession. Paul also wrote, "For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us." How are God's promises manifested on earth? They are "framed and birthed" from the "Glory Zone" by intercessors who have taken up their ministries from the Mercy Seat. AMEN.
