[The following prophetic word is taken from Chapter 8, "PROPHETIC POWER IN THE NEW MILLENNIUM, Predictions to the Church and the Nations of the 21st Century,"

PROPHETIC JOY A New, fresh, joy will come on the prophets worldwide

. . . Speaking of the prophets in the new millennium, Dennis Cramer says this:

Jesus said He wanted our joy to be full, and it will be precisely this sort of joy that the prophets of the new millennium demonstrate-a God-breathed, Holy Spirit joy.

DEEP ABIDING JOY

The prophets will walk in a deep abiding joy--something enduring, something supernatural.

This joy will be difficult to explain at first, difficult to put into words or to articulate in speech. It will be a joy that they are unaccustomed to, something unfamiliar, different, and distinct.

Yet, it will be a joy that unleashes incredible power--a catalyst for supernatural phenomenon. This power-packed joy will compensate for the sacrifice, rejection, pain, and suffering they will experience as they travel world-wide, serving the Lord.

This joy of the Lord will be their strength, literally becoming the new trademark of the worldwide prophets of the 21st century.

SMILING THROUGH THE STORMS

These joyful 21st century prophets will be the most down-to-earth, accessible, relational men and women in the Church. Although they will take what they do for God very seriously, they will not take themselves seriously. They will be real.

They will be an unassuming bunch, a group of regular men and women--ordinary people with extraordinary gifts. When called upon by God, however, they will operate in great power and demonstration of the Spirit.

They will smile through the storms, laugh in the face of danger, and shout for joy at the great things God will do through them. They will be a happy troupe, with gladness in their hearts, their service to God giving them the most pleasure. They will delight in the Lord, bringing Him the Glory.

GREAT ENCOURAGERS

These prophets will be known as great encouragers. In fact, this will be their ultimate legacy to the Church.

They will specialize in the healing of the complete individual-- spirit, soul, and body. They will bring hope where there was no hope. They will snatch victory out of defeat, turning nearly impossible situations around their strong prophetic gift.

They will spread joy wherever they go, depositing this gift of joy in churches around the world.

JOYFUL TRAVELING

Many prophets will experience geographical moves as the Holy Spirit relocates them nearer to metropolitan areas. Access to international airports will be a priority because the need to fly out quickly to the nations will be great.

Sudden, unexpected invitations, in the early morning hours will awaken the prophets, and they will answer the call of God, traveling on a moment's notice to many lands. Even this strenuous demand on their gifting, however, will result in more joy being poured out upon them.
