Thank you for following The Anointed Pen: Writing as a Sacred Call for Kingdom Influence series.
I truly appreciate you for joining me on this journey to uncover the significance of being a Kingdom writer.
I want to wish you a Happy New Month in June!
May the Lord enlarge your territory on all sides in Jesus name! Amen.
Our focus for this month of June is:The Prophetic Writer. And in this first article for the month, I will be sharing on “The Call of the Prophetic Writer”
Every prophetic journey begins with a call, a divine stirring that unsettles the writer from mere expression to divine transmission. The prophetic writer is not merely someone who writes about God; they write from God.
Their ink and fingers are yielded, their words surrendered, and their tools of transmission, an altar.
Just as Jeremiah was called before he was formed in the womb (Jeremiah 1:5), the prophetic writer carries a mandate that predates their awareness. The call may come in whispers or in fire, through seasons of brokenness or clarity, but it is unmistakable: Write what I show you.
“Then the Lord replied: ‘Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it.’” – Habakkuk 2:2 (NIV)
This divine invitation is not about talent, it is about obedience.
Many prophetic writers wrestle with this call.
Some, like Moses, say they are not eloquent. Others, like Jonah, run. But the weight of the word begins to burn like fire in their bones until writing becomes both surrender and healing.
The prophetic writer is called to see beyond the surface and write into eternity.
Your words will confront, comfort, correct, and commission.
You are not called to entertain but to awaken.
Your ink and fingers must carry the breath of the Spirit, and your lines must carry heaven’s weight.
Characteristics of the Call:
-
A Burden of Vision: Prophetic writers don’t write at random. They carry divine impressions, dreams, scriptures, or themes that weigh on their hearts until they are released in writing.
-
Sensitivity to the Spirit: The prophetic writer learns to tune into God’s heart, not just for personal devotion but for kingdom instruction.
-
A Refining Process: The call will challenge your flesh, your comfort, and your pride. It will often isolate you before it elevates you.
-
A Kingdom Assignment: You write not for applause but for alignment to bring others into truth, deliverance, healing, or direction.
Prophetic Awakening for the Week:
-
What has God been stirring you to write that you’ve delayed or ignored?
-
Can you identify a moment when your writing shifted from self-expression to divine assignment?
-
What burden has God placed in your heart for this generation?
Prayer:
Lord, I yield my pen and fingers to You. Awaken every dormant call within me. Let my words carry the sound of heaven and the purity of Your heart. Remove the fear of men and replace it with the fire of obedience. May I write as one who has seen, heard, and known the burden of the Lord. Amen.
Thank you for reading till the end.
I will see you next week by God’s grace in a new episode!
If you have been blessed, please share, I will be glad you did.
