Do not put out the Spirit's fire; do not treat prophecies with contempt. Test everything. Hold on to the good. — 1 Thessalonians 5:19-21 THOUGHT A major prophetic function is the evaluation of the present by looking into the past and peering into the future. O for prophets today who can see where the church is and give direction from God as to where to go; who can discern trends and see their outcome! PRAYER Lord, will You raise up prophets in Your Church — those leaders enlightened by Your Spirit — to diagnose our present state and lead us into what You desire us to be and in what direction You want us to go.
