That way, the conversation comes naturally, and decisions that need to be made will be surfaced by the Spirit of God who dwells in us. It was a refreshing experience to walk through the fields with no pressure to say anything unless there was something to say. We found ourselves walking sometimes for an hour or more without saying a word, and then drifting together as we walked and discussed issues that surfaced in our hearts. Now these issues had life and we were not only able to bless one another, but to hear the voice of God. It's something that God has built into His life.
Many pastors wonder why there is no life in their church.
The simple definition of prophesying would help us understand the difference in preaching and prophesying. Prophecy can be a personal word to an individual, a corporate word to a congregation or a national or international word to even larger groups of people. But, if it is true prophecy, it will center around who Christ is and what that means to the current situation. Perhaps part of the answer can come from our understanding of the fall of man. God had put within man the ability to organize, categorize, and rule.
