We have just completed the most wonderful and successful Summer Camp to date at Eagle Worldwide Retreat & Revival Centre in Copetown, ON. This was our fifth Summer Camp that we have held at the beautiful 52 acre property, just on the outskirts of Hamilton, ON. We had guests in attendance from all across the nation including a number of apostolic spiritual leaders from the Arctic, others from the First Nations community, Saskatchewan, Quebec, Manitoba, etc. During The Parade of Nations, many nations were represented, and we celebrated the Lord Jesus heart for the nations. We also had a tremendously successful School of the Prophets, as we continue to fulfill our prophetic mandate to train up prophetic voices to the nations. I want to thank all of our guests, speakers, partners, and friends, and most importantly the wonderful volunteers and staff of Eagle Worldwide Ministries for making all of this possible. This months teaching is on The 11 Realms and Channels of Prophecy Just recently, I have had a couple of prophetic words about leadership change in the Middle East and about political and economic changes in North America as well. The day after I spoke that word about changes in leadership in the Middle East, the prime minister of Israel announced his resignation. I also had a word about our own city of Hamilton; that God was going to pour out His favour on the city for restoration and revival, and that restoration was going to come through the private sector as well as through the provincial and federal government pouring in large sums of money to help with redevelopment and infrastructure. Over the course of the next two weeks, the provincial and federal government announced that millions of dollars were approved for Hamilton, and some federal grant money for one of the large health institutions was also being allocated. This particular type of prophetic utterance that we are most familiar with is only one of 11 channels and realms of the prophetic. The 11 Realms or Channels of Prophecy 1) The Prophetic Presbytery 1 Tim 4:14 Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery Acts 13:2, 3 As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul or the work whereunto I have called them. And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away. This realm is prophetically setting aside those called to the work of the Lord, recognizing and releasing them into their call. It includes the following: the laying on of hands by men and women of God who meet the qualifications of a Presbyter for the installation of and setting forth into ministry of those who have been proven to be called into ministry leadership; ordination into the Five Fold Ministry; confirmation and activation of members or ministries and for progress in Christian maturity.

2) Prophetic Evangelism (i.e. Phillip and the eunuch Acts 8) The most famous example of this realm of the prophetic is Jesus unique evangelism to the Samarian woman at the well. God can speak to individuals or groups and gives specific information (i.e. who, what, why, where, when) they will touch them and facilitate a sharing of the Gospel and even leading them to the Lord. This type of the prophetic can impact individuals as well as groups. Note: Please dont always wait because it is always His will; it is the Great Commission Go ye. 3) Prophetic Preaching 1 Peter 4:11 If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. Have you ever noticed how two people can listen to the same sermon and have completely different comments about how the Lord spoke to them through it? God can use prophetic preaching of one message to speak right into the heart of many individuals, exactly what they need to hear. In this instance the preacher is NOT simply going and getting the word for a sermon on Sunday, but allowing the Lord to speak through him prophetically within the flow of his message. Prophecy is normally by divine inspiration and revelation knowledge, and many times even though there is no thus saith the Lord there is a very obvious flow and the prophetic word of the Lord is going forth. 4) Prophecy of Scripture 2 Peter 1:20-21 Knowing this first that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. Prophecy of Scripture is the only prophecy that can claim infallibility. Right now we are seeing great revelation in end-time prophecy; but were also seeing the Word come alive for the church to move, mobilize and be equipped. Foundational truths are being restored. All prophetic utterances are to be judged to the written Word. 5) Spirit of Prophecy Rev 19:10b For the testimony of Jesus is the Spirit of prophecy. Its the anointing of the Holy Spirit that enables individuals who may not even have the gift of prophecy or who are not called to the office of the prophet to speak forth under the inspiration of God, and most times theres not retention of the gift. (Saul, Balam, etc) He can use anyone to testify to Jesus! 6) Office of the Prophet (I Cor. 12:28) (Acts 13:1) The office of the prophet is one of the Five Fold Ministry gifts listed in Ephesians 4:11 for the equipping of the saints. All that are called to the Five Fold office of the prophet have the gift of prophecy, however, not all who have the gift of prophecy are Five Fold Prophets. Prophets are designed to function at a higher realm than the gift of prophecy.

1 Cor. 12:28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps ,governments, diversities of tongues. When someone is operation in the office of the prophet, they begin to flow into the areas of: a) guidance; b) instruction; c) rebuke; d) judgment; e) revelation They are especially anointed to perceive what is next on Gods agenda for restoration of the church and are to sound a clear sound revealing Gods heart and desire for His bride and His army. Those who God has called to the office of the prophet often prophesy over regions, leaders, nations, countries, moves of God, and even bring corrective words as the Old Testament prophets did. Those operating in the gift of prophesy, for the edification of the body, who are not necessarily prophets, will give words that will edify, exhort, and encourage. These are two different operations the office vs. the gift. 7) Gift of Prophecy (I Cor. 12:10; I Cor. 14:1-4,6,22,24,31) The main function of the gift of prophecy is for edification, exhortation and comfort to men (I Cor. 14:3). Prophecy is to edify the Church (vs. 4). I Cor. 12:10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues Romans 12:6 Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith; This is one of the nine signature gifts of the Holy Spirit. This is the gift that we mainly see operating during corporate gatherings for the encouragement and growth of the body or through personal prophecy, as we speak the word of the Lord to encourage our brothers and sisters. 8) Song of the Lord Col 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. With almost every fresh move of His Spirit youll find Hell put an anointing on some songs. You will also find some psalmists who will prophecy in song. There is a fresh new anointing in the Body of Christ for prophetic worship during this season. 9) Prophetic Prayer Sometimes during intercession the person praying will prophetically declare things out of their spirit from the Holy Spirit; this can be an incredibly anointed time of prophetic proclamations. Jer. 27:18But if they be prophets, and if the word of the LORD be with them, let them now make intercession to the LORD of hosts, that the vessels which are left in the house of the LORD, and in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem, go not to Babylon.

10) Dreams and Visions Numbers 12:6 And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known unto him in a vision, and will speak unto him in a dream. God longs to speak to His people through dreams and visions, today, even as He did of old. Ask the Lord to open up this incredible realm of hearing and seeing to you! 11) Visionary Realm Acts 2:17-18 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy... This visionary realm includes seeing the vision, direction, and mandate that God is opening up for a body, a ministry, a people, a family, an individual, a company, etc. The people perish without a vision! He wants to open the eyes of our understanding, to see into the realms that He has for us! Lets become people of vision, seeing, believing, and walking in the way that the Lord has prepared for us! I trust that this teaching has helped you in understanding the various ways that God uses the realms and channels of prophecy through you and I, His servants. I want to recommend my book to you Night Watch: Unlocking your Destiny through Dreams and Visions. So many people have reported that they have received an impartation of dreaming prophetically as well as dream interpretation through reading the real life experiences of how God has spoken to me to guide me in business, personal decisions, ministry decision, etc through dreams and visions.

I pray that the eyes of your heart would be opened with His revelation! Bro. Russ Moyer
