The Prophecy Series: A Prophetic Manifesto (Continued)

Voices from the Desert

What would a healthy expression of prophetic ministry look like today? How does church history inform who we are and how we are today? Join Murray and Josh as they breakdown a prophetic manifesto for the modern church. On the docket for today: prophetic ministry ought to be known for a robust interpretation of scripture and the primary function of prophecy is to reveal the heart of God.
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?
