Romans 12:3-7
For by the grace (unmerited favor of God) given to me I warn everyone among you not to estimate and think of himself more highly than he ought [not to have an exaggerated opinion of his own importance], but to rate his ability with sober judgment, each according to the degree of faith apportioned by God to him.
For as in one physical body we have many parts (organs, members) and all of these parts do not have the same function or use,
So we, numerous as we are, are one body in Christ (the Messiah) and individually we are parts one of another [mutually dependent on one another].
Having gifts (faculties, talents, qualities) that differ according to the grace given us, let us use them: [He whose gift is] prophecy, [let him prophesy] according to the proportion of his faith;
[He whose gift is] practical service, let him give himself to serving; he who teaches, to his teaching;
Our brother Paul is teaching the saints here in the faculties of church services. When we believed that God sent His Only begotten Son, we came into a nation of God, and we being sons with Christ Jesus, are priests too Him and we reign as kings with Him as King of kings.
In these verses we get an ideal of some of the functions of our service, in that if we desire too prophecy, then we should do it with the faith we have in us, towards what He Is saying too us too say.
Once, while we were in a battle in Persian Gulf, I was taken in the Spirit too see something over there. When I was put back in the physical world, The world I was in was spiritually physical, like when Jesus walked through the wall, but said, touch Me I am flesh and bone...
I thought He wanted me too go and tell, but it wasn't for that. A brother name Dumitru Dudaman, from Romania was going too come in our lives and we at Jesus Namesake Church would be a part of his prophecing too America. That, we when We heard what The Spirit showed him, I would know he was real. It was a confirmation piece for us too be assured that God was Speaking.
I have posted his words and got them out and covered them with prayer...
Dumitru Dudaman pasted away in 1997, but he went all over Anerica in prophetic Word telling us too get back too God through Jesus Christ, repent and turn back too walking In Him.
