Sometimes one can really be blind for the obvious. Last Monday we had prophet Johnny Foote as a guest in our house. After sharing a view words, he started prophesying over each one of us.
When it was my turn, first thing he was talking about, was that I have a calling as a prophetic worshipper. I got such a word some years ago from other people too. However, while reasoning the choice of instrument to go with such a calling, I completely forgot about the calling itself. But still I had this urge to be part of a worship team, which would not happen. Regardless of how hard I(!) tried. So, while Johnny kept on prophesying other things over me, he happened to mention that I need to repent.
Ok, I know quite a bit about the concept of repenting. Still I had absolutely no clue, what I should repent for. Wednesday evening I prayed while washing hands: „Jesus, I have no clue. What is it I need to repent for? Please explain it to me. I really want to walk in all the gifts you have for me. Make it so clear, even I get it!“
A few hours later our house church was meeting and we shared our thoughts on the evening with Johnny Foote. And I talked about being clueless. My friend Karl asked me: „Are you faithful in this prophetic worship thingy?“ Ouch!!!! It was soooooo obvious, I did not see it. Too easy!
Well, I did repent. And did order an instrument, a Autoharp. Been thinking about getting one some time before. Today it arrived. Interesting and challenging times coming up. Woooohoooo!
