The prophet's handbook

ministers authenticate and verify sound doctrine in application. Such prophets establish and maintain godly standards in service, training, and conduct, especially focusing on other ministers around them and fellow prophets. As with the classes, these realms are meant to be a guide to understanding God’s placement and emphasis of prophets. It is good to remember that the Lord is over all the earth and the church, being spiritual, has its members scattered throughout it. Therefore, as the Great Shepherd, He must cover the needs of His entire body. With the prophet’s office, He does this in innovative and practical ways. God desires that His people never have an occasion to miss hearing from Him or tapping into His vast resources. So prophets, like all the officers and many of His servants, are dispersed throughout the world, covering every stratum of human life with the practical and supernatural resources of God.
