3 Steps in the Process Revelation Interpretation Application © 2006, Nathan Eckel

Revelation Revelation refers to initial Impressions: Different levels of intensity Different levels of specificity Don’t despise small beginnings Keep these initial impressions clear in your mind before rushing ahead with the word © 2006, Nathan Eckel

Interpretation Interpretation refers to: What the initial impressions might mean How you communicate it to the receiver When Revelation is not distinct from Interpretation, errors often occur! © 2006, Nathan Eckel

Application Application refers to how & when the receiver responds or does not respond to the word. If you believe you have insight into this area, suggest it to the receiver. Remind the receiver that they are responsible to discern the word. It should line up with scripture. We offer the word; they decide what to do with it. © 2006, Nathan Eckel

Traffic Light Analogy Revelation Interpretation Application

Red Light - Revelation STOP for a moment to clarify the Revelation before you communicate it to the receiver Articulate what you see, feel, hear, etc… Don’t determine meanings, just clarify the Revelation

Yellow Light - Interpretation Communicate ONLY Revelation Distinguish between Revelation & Interpretation - don’t blend them! Sometimes asking “does this impression mean anything to you?” brings an interpretation Other team members often have an interpretation

Green Light – Application Your job is done! The receiver discerns the word & application God is the Source, so we avoid Taking “credit” Receiving blame

Green Light – Alternate Application Application also can refer to the communication of Revelation Using prophetic in “the world” Keep Red & Yellow lights separate for best results!
