scriptural prophecy that is (was) fulfilled (finished, come to pass)
Fulfilled prophecy must be interpreted in harmony with the whole prophetic design of God.
Positive or negative expectations about circumstances, events, or people that may affect a persons behavior toward them in a manner that he or she (unknowingly) creates situations in which those expectations are fulfilled. In other words, causing something to happen by believing it will come true
____ Example 1: An employer sees a new employee and automatically expects him to be disloyal. The employer then treats the employee in a way to elicit the very response he concluded. Example 2: Labeling someone a "criminal," and treating that person as such, may foster criminal behavior in the person who is subjected to the expectation, thus creating a self fulfilling prophecy
When a false or true statement is said about someone enough times, it eventually becomes true.
If you call your girlfriend a bitch, she will become a self-fulfilling prophecy and act like a bitch.
