God's prophets.

Hi, brothers and sisters!
I had always thought that prophets were subordinate to pastors.
However, in 2023, God corrected my understanding. He told me that, just as in the Bible, prophets are meant to be unencumbered by kings.
Because of this, I was pleasantly surprised when a church led by an apostle, openly confirmed this biblical order in 2023.
The heirarchy is in 1 Corinthians 12:28: And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.
Ephesians 4:11 says: And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers. The word 'and' here means 'also'.
Too many churches are led by pastors. And in most of them, they have no place for God's prophets.
A church is truly blessed when it upholds God's divine order.
Stay on course in Jesus' name, amen?
Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. (Amos 3:7 KJV)
