If a person can predict the future they are ordinarily considered to be anyone from a hunch taker at a race track to a prophet wrestling with an angel. (That is what the dimple in the hip means.) The process, if we can call it that, encompasses no effort and no brains. Rather, since it is totally not understood, it does embrace imagination, according, they say, to Einstein.
I myself call them epiphanies to take the magic out of them and head off any spiritual topics when I do not want to deal with any. I really do strongly suspect however, that God places ideas in the hearts of the prophets. I go no further than that since anything too far out carries any discussion into a science fiction story straight as a shot out of an over- thumbed copy of Galaxy.
