The Wilderness Creates Individuation
One recurring problem I continually bump into is the lack of prophetic individuation. I weary of hearing uniform "prophetic words" that are not very prophetic. Rather, they are more of a regurgitation of the current spiritual fad. These "prophecies" are thoroughly unmoving, fail to bear witness within, and exploit the ideals of immature Christians. Sometimes I ask myself, "Does God not have more to say? Either He is not very relevant and original, or some of these prophesiers have a high flesh-mixture diluting or blocking the authentic word." I am well aware that God speaks thematically and consistently. Equally so, He speaks with uncanny relevance and uniqueness in different contexts. We need greater prophetic individuation.
Individuation means "the quality of being individual, distinct, unique, or original". The desert creates this individuation. Because the fervent heat melts away pretense, in-desert prophets are able to find their truest prophetic voices underneath the wanna-be facades. Those voices may have similarities to other prophets, but should also have noticeable uniqueness and innovation. What Moses discovered in the desert about his prophetic identity is quite different than what Elijah discovered. And David. And John. These prophets all emerged from the desert with some similarities, but also great individuality.

The Great Prophet
The following words are prophetic words, and prophetic promises spoken by Christ. Each passage starts out saying "blessed are".
Mat 5:2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
Mat 5:3Blessed [are] the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Mat 5:4 Blessed [are] they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
Mat 5:5 Blessed [are] the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
Mat 5:6 Blessed [are] they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Mat 5:7 Blessed [are] the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
Mat 5:8 Blessed [are] the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
Mat 5:9 Blessed [are] the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
The word of God is full of prophetic words and prophetic promises. One of the most important words in the word of God is the word "if". If you do this, this will happen and if you do that, that will happen. The book of proverbs is a perfect example of the "if's".
Another scripture would be "seek and you will find". That comes with a "if". If you seek, you will find, and if you don't, you wont. Blessed are these...
