Friends,
I expect the restoration of the Prophetic in the Church will be much needed as we travel towards a later hour in the scheme of things.
The question is - how should this operate...
We see in the OT prophets operating as an independent group.
We see in the NT prophets seemed to be grouping to some extent, and were the 'go to' place to weigh 'words'. They seemed to travel as a group a well.
Should we be seeing a restoration of the fellowship of prophets?
We came close to doing this in NZ at one stage, the idea was each church in a geographic area put forward one person they thought had a prophetic disposition and the group would meet independently for prayer, worship, and waiting on God.
They would then feed back to the local Pastors what they though God was saying about local strategy and the like.
This is a departure from the traditional approach of confining the prophetic input to within the church service only.
Your thoughts on this greatly appreciated.
