A Shift in Leadership

A Shift in Leadership

get our word edifice from this word, which means a building or a structure. Prophecy is an integral part of building the Church. When we build people, we build the Church. Prophecy will strengthen believers, giving them the necessary strength to move into apostolic ministry. It strengthens and builds the spirits of the people. People with strong spirits will be able to transition and move into the fullness of what the Lord is releasing. I cannot overemphasize the importance of prophecy. Churches should excel in it (1 Corinthians 14:12). To excel means to do extremely well. Our prophetic level should not be mediocre. We should not be average or sub-par in this area. People need to be activated and trained to flow in the spirit of prophecy. We need to take time to teach in this area and make room for its operation. It will not happen by accident. We must have a strategy to raise the level of the prophetic ministry in the local church.
