In your calling to the prophetic. How has God been Molding you to fit in as a man or woman that will carry out the mandate He has placed in your life. What are the ways that gave you the surety that God has called you to the prophetic ministry?

I am asking this because I sense God using circumstances in my life to direct me in this direction. I need to know that I am not only calling myself into this.

Good topic! Well first, I knew that God had called me into the prophetic because I was having visions of me doing the work, but I thought I was just seeing things until He came to me in a dream and called me out as prophet and then afterwards is when I found the scripture in Numbers 12:6, "When there are prophets of the LORD among you, I make myself known to them in visions or speak to them in dreams", and realized He had called me, so I accepted the call one day while in prayer and ever since then He has been using different tests and trials to build me up in faith and make me stronger, because a prophetic persom has to have faith and be strong. They also have to be able to endure and be leaders (not always a pastor, but just a leader), so God would allow me to be in situations where I may have had to lead people or be tested with things where I would just have to be able to endure and not let up so easily. He also wants the people who have been called into the prophetc to be able to hear His voice, so many times He would tell me to pray here or there and talk with Him to get to know His voice. During that time, would be put into situations where He could anyone He wanted to to say what He wanted someone to hear, but He would use me, to get me used to speaking prophetically. And even now He is raising me up to get used to speaking prophetically more publicly because I would do more private, with maybe just a few people or just one. So a lot of times, yes, He will use circumstances just to pull you in deeper into the prophetic and closer to Him, to be sure you are hearing His voice. Prophetic people go through and sometimes have to just get to themselves, because it is a serious calling and we have to be sure we are hearing from God.
Yesterday I left my office early. I needed some rest. I felt worn out and had done little in the day. I didn't know that God wanted to have me alone in the house. After getting into the house I went to my bed and felt a sadness of heart and as I lay on the bed started wondering. As I was praying, repenting and interceding for family, church and the nation, I sensed that oughtta read the book of Amos.

I didn't like the message Amos was giving. But in my heart I felt how long are we to preach peace prosperity and the feel good gospel and how God will give people job, homes, wives and husbands etc? It is in the church that we have taken the grace of God as a licence to sin. Is it that grace may abound? For all the sins in the church-THE FAMILY OF GOD.... Judgment starts in His house. How much more for the unbelieving. It is the bickering, backstabbing, prostituting, love of money in the house of the LORD! Only if we turn from our sins will God spare us but the sickle is set.

God is calling us... I saw myself... I saw the church in the message. God interchangeably calls Israel Jacob. He has called us and changed our names and destinies. But in our sin He see Jacob the deceiver... who tried to even con God! Yet in His mercy and grace He calls us Israel- The chosen and blessed one- The apple of his eye! If we turn to Him He will have mercy. He is tired of our lip service!

Sad that a shepherd boy would be used to prophesy- Where was the priest and the Prophet? Gd will use the vessel that is available and is cleansed for His purpose!
