At times, people have privately forwarded me prophesies to tell me they discern something amiss, and ask me what my thoughts are on it. Sometimes, they are passed around as the latest , and I might read the prophecy. I am by no means an expert on it, but it is difficult to discern through words alone.
Easy categorization can lead to easy dismissal, and too many people engage in that already.
The gift of discernment does not depend on type and format any more than it depends on good public relations. Some prophecys seems to have a preaching or teaching woven into them. Believers need to notice any gospel or message that is being preached within a prophecy. Repetitiveness or sing-song is a technique of convincing. The Lord will repeat Himself when necessary, but only when necessary.
