'Prophecy' is a word used to describe words from God. For example, when God spoke directly to a prophet or a leader of His people, especially if He wanted them to tell others, that is prophecy. Prophecy can refer to events in the past, present, or future. The only stipulation is that the words must have come from God.
They would say that God has spoken to them , concerning a certain thing and if the king or the Jews did not change their ways, then what god showed them in a vision would come to pass.
