They Shall Prophesy - David C Woodrum - Bog

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES OF THIS COURSE
"Core Values" of the three volumes of this course:
The primary goal of this study is to consider what we must do as individuals, congregations, and a global community to position ourselves in such a way as to take maximum advantage of what the Holy Spirit will be able to accomplish within us and through us... not for our sake or even for the sake of the world around us, but for His great name's sake and the pleasure of His heart. God is not responding to the many assaults of His enemies, as though they were leading Him, but instead, they are only permitted to do whatsoever His will allows in response to His purposes and plans.We will discuss various aspects of the gift and ministry of prophecy to equip and empower disciples in the gifts and ministry of expressing the prophetic heart and hand of God to the world in a scripturally appropriate, adequate, and accurate manner and manifestation.We will speak to the apparent increase in prophetic activity throughout the globe, both in and out of the Body of Christ.We will examine the who, what, when, where, and why's of prophecy to equip the disciple on how to rightly judge prophecy.We will provide 'diagnostic tools' to evaluate the prophetic ministries and voices emerging today through the whole world.We will provide scriptural guidelines for the appropriate judging of prophecy; recognizing that the activation of the gift of prophecy without the responsible regulation of the gift is grievous to the Holy Spirit.We will develop guidelines from the Scriptures which will release more of God's people into the functional, practical, daily operations of the gift of prophecy within and through their lives.We will look at the practical aspects of conflicts that occur in the development and implementation of the prophetic ministry among and through God's people; recognizing that the development of conflict resolution principles is necessary to walk in a team with others.We will consider the various biases which have hindered or limited the full expression of the prophetic ministry in and through redeemed disciples of Jesus Christ and His kingdom.We will consider the 'developmental process' of the prophetic.
