1 Prophetic revelation is for the unbeliever, as well as believer, and is a gift that wins souls.
1Co 14:24 But if all prophesy, and some unbeliever or one not instructed comes, he is convicted by all, he is judged by all.
1Co 14:25 And so the secrets of his heart become revealed. And so, falling down on his face, he will worship God and report that God is truly among you.
2 This last-day-generation is to be an anointed and prophetic people who win souls by the gifts of the Spirit.
These visions and dreams will be the Father communicating to the church His strategy for the harvest.
Act 2:17 And it shall be in the last days, says God, I will pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh. And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.

Joh 1:48 Nathanael said to Him, From where do You know me? Jesus answered and said to him, Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.
Joh 1:49 Nathanael answered and said to Him, Rabbi, You are the Son of God. You are the King of Israel!
Joh 1:50 Jesus answered and said to him, Because I said to you, I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You shall see greater things than these.
Joh 1:51 And He said to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, Hereafter you shall see Heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man.

5 Example of prophetic evangelism with Ananias & Saul.
God spoke though a vision to Ananias to direct him to a Saul; wow, what a fruitfull vision!
Act 9:10 Now there was in Damascus a disciple named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, Ananias. And he answered, Here am I, Lord.
Act 9:11 And the Lord said to him, Get up and go to the street called Straight and ask at the house of Judas for a man of Tarsus named Saul, for behold, he is praying [there].
Act 9:12 And he has seen in a vision a man named Ananias enter and lay his hands on him so that he might regain his sight.
Act 9:13 But Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard many people tell about this man, especially how much evil and what great suffering he has brought on Your saints at Jerusalem;
Act 9:14 Now he is here and has authority from the high priests to put in chains all who call upon Your name.
Act 9:15 But the Lord said to him, Go, for this man is a chosen instrument of Mine to bear My name before the Gentiles and kings and the descendants of Israel;
Act 9:16 For I will make clear to him how much he will be afflicted and must endure and suffer for My name's sake.
Act 9:17 So Ananias left and went into the house. And he laid his hands on Saul and said, Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, Who appeared to you along the way by which you came here, has sent me that you may recover your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.
Act 9:18 And instantly something like scales fell from [Saul's] eyes, and he recovered his sight. Then he arose and was baptized,
Act 9:19 And after he took some food, he was strengthened. For several days [afterward] he remained with the disciples at Damascus.
Act 9:20 And immediately in the synagogues he proclaimed Jesus, saying, He is the Son of God!
