To: right way right; Jedediah

Jedediah has likely turned in for the night.

I think you have stated things extremely well and accurately.

Jedediah does seem to operate under an overriding compelling press of Holy Spirit in his spirit, heart, mind.

He would likely agree that the spirit is still subject to the prophet as Scripture asserts. However, his compelling urgings are rather intense and he responds accordingly as do most prophetic types, I know.

Zeal is a pretty intense and commonly intense issue with most of them.

imho, in not a few of them, zeal can override their wisdom.

Jedediah is young enough that his Zeal is quite strong and his years of experience walking in such an anointing are not so extensive. Yet, I think he hears amazingly accurately and is amazingly obedient to what he’s convinced he’s heard.

And, when I’ve found him or his attitude amiss in some way, I’ve spoken up and after some exchanges, he adjusted his attitude in a Biblical Christ-like way. That was impressive to me.

Far too many prophetic types are too impressed with their own press clippings and hotline to God to put up with much discipline and correction. I don’t respect those nor give them much attention or hearing even though they may have started out with an authentic gifting and calling.

Certainly when he is speaking on the phone under the anointing, the vigor and intensity tumble out quite forcefully as they do through me on occasion. So it’s all quite congruent with my own experience and easy to respect as I feel a confirmation in my spirit.

I can certainly identify with the effects of over zealousness in my own walk.

There is a perfect balance that the Lord intends for each of us according to his plan.

Including the Catholics who like to play bombardment!
