Increase Your Faith! There are exercises that help to increase your Faith so you can be sure you are growing spiritually. Find a group that encourages prophesying so you will be exposed to the prophetic. Samuel when he was judging Israel lived at the school of the prophets in Ramah. Elijah and Elisha knew the students in the school of the prophets in Jericho and Saul had experiences at Samuel’s school. Elisha served as an apprentice to Elijah to gain the experience he needed for his ministry. Being around prophets gives opportunities to be prophetic, to become a prophet. For your own spiritual growth your will learn to hear God’s voice so you will be able to live in His perfect will. What is most important in that is not that you will prophesy to national leaders or even to just plain people, but you become confident that that you are hearing God, meaning you can know for sure that you are in God’s will.
