I’ve written much about what prophetic art is and how God wants to speak to you and create with you to bring life, love and hope to others, but we haven’t yet explored how to interpret what He is saying through our work.

This drawing comes from Psalm 27:4 where it says, “One thing I would ask of the Lord, this only do I seek: that I might dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to seek Him in His temple.” (NIV).

I completed Wild Love over the course of my first year at Bethel Supernatural School of Ministry (BSSM) in 2015.

This is my very first prophetic painting. I made sometime in high school, and it came out of a place of becoming self-confident.

Something I have wrestled with for some time, is the pressure for each of the prophetic words attached to my artwork to fit a specific mould.

These paintings came out of a place of frustration and desperation. I was feeling the pressure of having to explain every painting and for each be a prophetic word for someone. Painting is worship first for me, and in trying to explain each painting, I felt like my value for worship was being shoved to the side.

Humans have the incredible ability to create beauty. Sometimes that beauty has a purpose, sometimes that beauty is simply to be appreciated.
