User Friendly Prophecy: Guidelines for the Effective Use of Prophecy

Rating:
Summary: A must-read for anyone flowing in the prophetic.
Review: This book has been out for a few years now and I can't believe I've just now read it. I wish I had found it much sooner. Having a prophetic gift can be a scary thing, both to the one who has the gift and to others, because prophecy is such a misunderstood and misrepresented gift in the Church today. Larry Randolph absolutely takes the fear out of having a prophetic gift. My favorite part of the book explains the purpose of the gift of prophecy and supports this biblically. I also learned how one's spiritual maturity is related to how one ministers with this gift. After reading this book, I was able to see exactly where I was on a maturity level in my gift and could see, using Larry's guidelines, how I should and should not minister at my level. I've given this book to my pastors to review for use as curriculum in our church and highly recommend that other pastors do the same.

Review: This book is a must for anyone interested in the prophetic. I have heard Larry speak live and we have given out over 10 copies if this book. I have given it to a few Pastors who have also really enjoyed it and have then used it for a Curriculum m for teaching their church on the prophetic. Personally, I also found it very encouraging in my own life and development of the prophetic gifts. You will be very glad you got this book. It is easy reading and you will want to get more than one copy so you can pass it along and keep a copy for your self! Blessings and Refreshings

Summary: This book gives guidelines for effective use of prophecy!
Review: User Friendly Prophecy is a straight-forward, no-nonsense manual on the use of prophecy in the Church today. For those Christians who have felt the stirring of this gift in their lives, this book serves as a compass on the map to discovering how to flow in the prophetic.

Larry Randolph breaks down this study on the prophetic into three main thrusts: Establishing the Scriptural Validity of Prophecy, Explaining the Purpose and Place of Prophecy in the Church, and Understanding Prophetic Failure and Success. This book reveals what both the Old and New Testaments have to say about prophets and prophecy and shows how this ancient gift has changed in light of the New Covenant. Both babes in Christ and seasoned believers will learn the fundamentals on how to prophesy, who can prophesy, and who a prophet is as defined by God's word.
