The greatest prophets in Scripture were not merely people who saw visions.

They were people who walked with God.

Enoch walked with God.

Moses spoke with God face to face.

David treasured His presence.

Jesus lived in continual fellowship with the Spirit.

The Holy Spirit does not simply want to visit prophets.

He wants to dwell with them.

The prophetic life begins with relationship.

Without relationship, gifts become dangerous.

Without intimacy, revelation becomes empty.

Without fellowship, ministry becomes performance.

God never intended us merely to receive from the Holy Spirit.

He intended us to know Him.
