FOR LIMITLESS LEADERS

The Scripture is explicit in its instruction to ‘eagerly desire gifts of the Spirit, especially prophecy’ (1 Cor. 14:1). It also tells us that ‘you can all prophesy in turn so that everyone may be instructed and encouraged’ (1 Corinthians 14:31). But for most of us, that’s more of a theological concept than an every day reality! 😅  

That’s why we sat down for a chat with Helen Azer from Heartcry for Change, to take a deep dive into the mystery of prophetic prayer. 👌

We cover a lot of ground in this conversation, including…

… what is prophecy and how we can grow in it ✅

… the distinction between the gift of prophecy and the office of a prophet ✅

… the connection between faith and prophecy ✅

… stepping out in words of knowledge ✅

… how the prophetic can impact our daily life of prayer ✅

… how to equip young people in the prophetic ✅

and loads more! 

This is an incredibly insightful conversation that’s sure to ignite your prophetic imagination. 🙏
