Much has been said in recent weeks regarding prophecy and its accuracy in the body of Christ. My intention in this article is not to call into question any particular prophetic word given or its interpretation or application—but rather it is to give solid scriptural principles by which we can grow and mature in stewarding prophetic revelation, interpretation and application moving forward. Years ago, when I was in Kansas City with Mike Bickle and others, Bill Hamon (a mature prophet who is the founder of an extensive ministry called Christian International) taught us about the meaning and importance of [...]

The Anatomy of a Prophetic Word

Early in the modern prophetic movement in 1988, I remember learning the importance of the three-stage process of properly handing revelation.

These three principles have become vital building blocks for understanding the prophetic. We also learned there is a trifold nature of the prophetic. It is: 1) Partial, 2) Progressive and 3) Conditional.  So let me build [...]

For example, let’s say I get a revelation about a political situation, but it happens to touch on a sensitive area in my own experience. If I have hung on to bitterness, for [...]
