Young Prophets

5/20/00: REVELATION OF THE VIRGIN PROPHET & MENTORING:

Today as I was listening to scripture on the Bible tape, the following passage jumped out to me as a prophetic parable. The colt that has never been ridden reminds me of the young virgin prophet who has received a wonderful vision or revelation from the Lord, and the Lord rides the virgin in honor, in view of the crowds.

The young one is innocent and does not know the pain of rejection or any of the mishaps in coming into the prophetic giftings. We need to mentor younger ones so they are protected and not abused by the system, taken advantage of or promoted outside of their metron before their time.

Mark 11:2-3 2 "Go into that village over there," he told them, "and as soon as you enter it, you will see a colt tied there that has never been ridden. Untie it and bring it here. 3 If anyone asks what you are doing, just say, `The Lord needs it and will return it soon.' NLT

Zech 9:9-10 9 Rejoice greatly, O people of Zion! Shout in triumph, O people of Jerusalem! Look, your king is coming to you. He is righteous and victorious, yet he is humble, riding on a donkey--even on a donkey's colt. NLT
