In order to move the Body into a reset of its foundations, reclaiming apostolic and prophetic foundations, we may have been guilty of “dumbing down” certain aspects of these kingdom leadership functions. Coming out of a season of in which our definition of “church” was “the accumulation of believers,” we have approached this reset in […]

Consider the phrasing of Paul: “The spirit of the prophet is subject to the prophet.” Couple that with Peter’s statement: “Whoever speaks, let him speak as one who speaks the oracles of God.” Further consider, then, that prophets are responsible for what they speak, and what they speak should represent God. In the first uses […]

We cannot separate the personality of the prophetic from the prophetic function. The preparation process is personal because the prophetic assignment is personal. We cannot separate the prophetic from assignment if we are to understand his function anymore than we can separate the prophet from his assignment if we are to understand his preparation. Consider […]

The kingdom is filled with both inequality and equality. In some ways, all citizens share equally. In others distinctions and destinies are unequal, by human standards of measurement. The kingdom functions in abundance, so having equal shares so no one has “too much” or “has some of mine” is foreign to kingdom culture. Peter says, for […]

Someone ask me recently how to deal with simpleminded people in prophetic ministry. I considered the question a very good one since we all have to deal with simplemindedness in spiritual things. On the one hand, we understand that “becoming like a little child” was one example Jesus used to describe how to experience His […]

Honor Releases Anointing Honoring the one sent releases what God sent through the one He sent. This sense of sending and releasing is fundamental to kingdom dynamics. Honor releases anointing when releases calling which releases created destiny. Everything in the kingdom functions SpiritFirst, and anointing is spiritual power and authority. God targets kingdom people with […]

No one can make a person a prophet if God has not called them to be a prophet. No amount of prophetic training will make a person who hasn’t been called a prophet into a prophet. Impossible to do. Frustrating to attempt. Dysfunctional if allowed. So, at some point, someone must identify prophets so that […]

In answer to the question – “How does God choose leaders?” – we might review revelation fundamentals about God and how He does stuff. Our Biblical worldview should include the presuppositions of Creation, Redemption, and Restoration; for outside the context of Bible revelation, we usually fail to filter out humanism, animism, and occultism, creeping confusions […]

Defining terms for “prophetic presbytery” is a good beginning point. The concept is being discussed, but the concept also has variants forms of meaning. Why? Because of usage of the terms in church polity and applications of the terms that are inconsistent with their use in Scripture. We will be Biblical. We will function according […]
