Is definitely case specific.
The Office Of the Prophetess moves upon me from time to time as the Holy Spirit wills. One who stands in the office of the prophet is moved upon, by the Spirit Of God by sudden inspiration.
One who stands in the office of the prophet, has visions and dreams. Prophecy also comes forth as the Spirit wills. One who stands in the office of the prophet is either a preacher or teacher or both. In other words they don’t operate in the gifts of the Spirit at all times, but they would have a consistent manifestation of the gifts as they minister the gospel. One who stands in the office of the prophet, or prophetess from time to time, is shown future events. They are shown the spiritual atmosphere around a person or a group of believers as the Spirit wills. One who is developed in the office of a prophet knows that if they don’t follow closely what God is sharing, and execute their office, they can fall into the trap of the enemy by reason of disobedience.
Now the case specific word is this, if you have a calling to one office or another, move into it quickly so that God can protect those around you and yourself. For the Lord is a military strategist. So is the wicked one. What people don’t know causes them to suffer great loss. For God said my people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge. Hosea 4:6. Obey the unction on the inside, learn of your call and don’t allow anyone to shuffle you away from it. (This word was spoken specifically, but all can receive light in these matters.)

11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
