Episode 33: Guest Speaker Darla Lassiter - Gift of Prayer + Prophecy

In this episode, we interview a very special guest who has the gift of prayer and prophecy and is a pastor, leader, teacher, author, and mentor. We’re excited to have Darla Lassiter on our podcast to share about these specific gifts and how to activate and develop them.  We are going to talk about what the word of God teaches about them. + Have you spent time in prayer today? + Prayer is the foundation for every believer. + Prayer starts with the confession of our heart and having a conversation with the Lord. + It’s about the quality of prayer and the quantity of time. + Gift of speaking in tongues is a gift that the Lord gives you. + Prayer is when we spend time with the Lord and communicate with him. + You can study scripture and verses on prayer. + Prayer is birthed from our personal relationship with the Lord. + Its the way that we pray out the perfect will of God and the enemy can’t understand it. + The baptism of the Holy Spirit is evidence of the Holy Spirit. + The gift of prophecy is when you have a specific work from the Lord for someone. + The office of the prophet is different from the gift of prophecy. + All of our gifts should be filtered from the love of God and in humility. + The gifts come on us as God wills them and not just when we desire them. + Prophetic word is always uplifting and encouraging it should never be used for correction. + The prophetic word should confirm what God has already spoken to you. + It goes back to our prayer life and to make sure that it is aligned with what the Lord has already put in your heart. +  If we are in a healthy place in our prayer life we will have the discernment to be able identify if it is from the Lord.
