Tho a lot of material is written about the prophetic ministry or gifting: sadly, it is hugely misconceived in Christendom for a long time. There are many aspects of the prophetic that are still in the realm of mystery to many. Primarily, it has remained a mystery on what happened during a prophetic encounter. In Understanding The Prophetic Matrix, Ed Brinkman delves deep into the prophetic dynamics to unlock mysteries/secrets of the prophetic, bringing out in a simple but powerful way, insights unveiled to him by the Holy Spirit as he strives to answer questions such as:
- What is it that makes prophets not to understand the prophetic?
- Where do people go wrong regarding the prophetic?
- What are the dangers of receiving and delivering through the prophetic gift or office?
- Where should the giver of prophecy and the receiver of prophecy be during the prophetic moment? Is it a situation of merit? Must there be a unique ‘climate’ for the gift or office to operate, or should the giver and receiver be in a special ‘place’ for the gift to function?
- What happens if the character is not ready for prophetic utterances?
