A Prophetic Manifesto (continued): the need for humility, silence, and solitude

Voices from the Desert

Join Josh and Murray as they continue to breakdown the prophetic manifesto. On for today: the need for humility, silence, and solitude is crucial for prophetic maturity.
The seven marks of historic prophetic ministry (The Prophetic Manifesto):
- The reputation of Macarius the Great.
- The Desert Fathers (aka the prophets in the church) were sought for their great understanding of Scripture.
- The primary function of prophetic ministry is to reveal the nature of God/heart of Christ. A secondary/tertiary function is telling the future.
- An intense regards for humility, solitude, and silence (see the aforementioned Macarius)
- A hesitancy to use a gift to build a platform. Prophets/those in prophetic ministry ought to desire to be hidden rather than seen and to see the gift used in hidden ways.
- De-shackling the function of prophecy from end-times eschatology
- A healthier understanding of 5-fold ministry (admitting that we don't know what we are talking about). How has it been applied in ages past?
