Ecclesiastes 12:12b, “….Of making many books there is no end…”
When the understanding of scribal ministry is limited, people often give prophecy after prophecy about writing books.
When the understanding of scribal ministry expands, those prophetic words will expand with it.
So, if you received a prophecy about writing books and you have NO CLUE how to start because you cannot sense a book in you, do not become overwhelmed.
Prophecies About Writing Books
Instead, keep these truths in mind:
1. Recognize that EVEN A PROPHET can be limited by their understanding of what they hear. We all hear according to what we can process and understand.
So if the only understanding of a scribe is to write books… then that will be about ALL that the prophet can prophesy into.
2. FOR YOU, however, ask the Lord to reveal the depth of that word – especially if it bore witness with your spirit. Understand that scribal ministry includes any and everything related to administration, creativity and instruction.
Your “book” could actually be a blog, a curriculum, prayers, a collection of related sermons, grants, administrative documents, a play, the launch of a radio broadcast, a television show, etc.
The “book” could also be something that the Lord will stir in your heart much later in your journey…. or it might not be “a book” at all.
No Fixation
So please, don’t strain the Spirit by becoming fixated on a “PHYSICAL BOOK OR AN EBOOK.”
(Check out this article, “Writers Are Only A Type of Prophetic Scribe.”)
If you believe you are a “prophetic” scribe not just a scribe, then learn everything you can about that calling. Just like people learn everything about dreams, visions, prophesying, the apostolic, etc., you should learn about The Scribal Anointing.
Put the same kind of energy into understanding “YOUR” scribal realm. In doing so, the calling is unexpanded.
