THE MOTIVE BEHIND TRUE WATCHMEN 👀

Writer's picture: Prophetic ReformerProphetic Reformer

✴ I will be sharing several things about "Watchmen" and "Watchmen prophets" over the next few days. Be on the lookout! 

👉 You want to know why true Prophetic Watchmen (those who see what others don't), speak so LOUDLY while doing what they are called to do in the body?? You want to know why they speak out against things they see that are wrong or damaging? They do it...Because they care! They care about the body, they care about those who will be hurt, those whose very lives are at stake. Yes, there are some who claim to be Prophetic watchmen, who are able to see what is coming through intuition or other ways, who are only yelling because they want their voices to be heard, or to be able to say "I told you so!" when it all shakes out. But a true watchmen of the Lord, uses the discernment (and discerning of spirits) the Lord has given them - the eyes in the spirit that they have been given - to warn others that are in danger, to prevent danger, or to let others know that there is something happening or that may be coming, that is very dangerous and could hurt many in the body. The main thing that drives the true watchmen is the love for their fellow brethren, especially for the younger sheep and lambs. They don't want to see the wolves get them! 🐺 🐑 They don't want to see them deceived and walking a wrong path that will lead to their destruction. They will expose things that others don't even want to acknowledge is there, all because of their deep love for others. It is not because they enjoy exposing things, but because they know the danger if they don't. They can see what's coming. At the risk of being called names, ridiculed, and said they are being "too judgemental", or always "seeing the negative", they see the damage that is coming, and they cannot stay silent. They see things coming waaayyy before anyone else does, yet many think they are being crazy or too negative...until they are proven right again and again, after what they have seen actually happens. Yes many times, Watchmen are being driven by a strong sense of justice, to see things made right that are wrong...but more so out of love for those who are being, or may be injured. Trust me, true watchmen would have given up and decided to climb down off their walls a long time ago, if they weren't compelled by the love to see others saved from what they see. Their job is not a fun one! 😏 They are compelled by their loyalty to the Master who positioned them on the wall...and by the LOVE they feel for their fellow brethren! WATCHMEN: check your heart, and make sure you are doing what you do and saying what you say, out of the right motives of the heart! Do you care for the body? Do you speak what you see out of love, with groanings and even sadness at what you see? LEADERS IN THE BODY: Make sure you know the true motive of the heart before you say someone is doing something out of line, or they are being too "judgemental", "negative", or they are not "loving"...otherwise, aren't you guilty of making a harsh judgement against them yourself? Make sure you know if they are a true Watchmen, who is simply motivated out of love and protection for the body. Remember, if true watchmen don't cry aloud, the blood will be on their own hands! (Eze.33) Remember, true watchmen have a deep love for the Bride, who are their fellow brethren! 💖

Along with her calling as a Prophetess, Amanda also flows in a powerful worship and healing anointing, and is a gifted teacher and writer as well. Although she loves all aspects of the ministry that God has called her to, her personal passion is to see reformation come to the Body of Christ and the current prophetic movement. She also longs to see those in the Body of Christ reach their destinies - to see God's people break free from their strongholds and bondages, to walk in complete wholeness and freedom in Christ. She is honored and excited to serve the Lord in many capacities in the Kingdom, seeing lives transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit!
