A prophetic people
March 11, 2018
This week we take a look at the spiritual gift of prophecy. We marvel at the fact God longs to speak with us and be in intimate fellowship with us. We are to eagerly desire this gift that we might build one another up, be strengthened and encouraged and hear what God might say to His people. Full of practical wisdom & insight let us pursue this gift of God together.

1 Corinthians 14:1–5 (Listen)
Prophecy and Tongues
14:1 Pursue love, and earnestly desire the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy. 2 For one who speaks in a tongue speaks not to men but to God; for no one understands him, but he utters mysteries in the Spirit. 3 On the other hand, the one who prophesies speaks to people for their upbuilding and encouragement and consolation. 4 The one who speaks in a tongue builds up himself, but the one who prophesies builds up the church. 5 Now I want you all to speak in tongues, but even more to prophesy. The one who prophesies is greater than the one who speaks in tongues, unless someone interprets, so that the church may be built up.
