Prophetic-Word List

About This Email List

This is an email list to distribute relevant words to the body of Christ.

It is a one-way distribution list.. e.g, it will send posts to you but it will NOT allow you to post to it. (This is not a discussion list, simply a distribution list).

Please NOTE: the prophetic-word list will NOT send more than 1 word a day
to the list and will try to send at least 1 a week. Many people
cannot handle high volumes of email and this list is designed
to keep the volume of email it generates very low but to still
provide key prophetic words to the body of Christ.

There is no fee to participate on this list. It is offered free as a service to the body of Christ.

Replying To Those Who Submitted A Given Word

Redistribution Of Words

Please feel free to re-distribute any of the words from the prophetic-word list to friends, to other email lists, to newsletters and magazines, www pages, etc. The words distributed on the prophetic-word list are intended to be freely and widely circulated.

Criteria For Selecting Words

When words are submitted to us (e.g., emailed to prophetic-word submission address, we collect the words into a folder and prayerfully review them once every 8 to 16 weeks. So if you have done a recent submission, it is probably sitting in the folder, awaiting review.

We do have some requirements for a word submission to make it into the folder. It must:

  1. be submitted in plain text, not in html, and not as a word document.
  2. The word must be typed in regular case, not ALL CAPITALS. We find all capitals too hard to read and we are not rewilling to retype the word to distribute it. So we will not accept submissions were the word is typed in all capital letters.
  3. The first/last name of the person who gave the word must be enclused with the submission. We believe in the accountability of the prophet and therefore do not distribute anonymous words.

We periodically review our folder of words. We start by bouncing them aginst are list criteria and eleminating the words that do not meet them. Those criteria include:

  1. We disqualify words that contridict scripture.
  2. We do not distribute judgemental or negatively corrective or strogly rebuking words on the list at all. They may be real God-words but they are outside of the parameters that God gave us for this particular list.
  3. We do no allow words with predictions of impending doom.. such as "God is going to destroy this city or this country by earthqake or flood." Those may (or may not) be valid and real God-words, but they are outside of the scope of what God gave us as guildelines for this particular list.
  4. We get rid of what I call "fluff.." words that don't say much of anything.
  5. We disqualify words that are for a specific individual or small group, such as a local church. We only circulate words relevent to the body of Christ at large.
  6. We disqualify words that strongly promote one area of theology over another, such as pre-tribulation rapture vs post-tribulation rapture vs mid-tribulation rapture. If the word addresses an area of theology where the theologians find many different and equally plausible interpretations, we do not allow words that appear to be written out of a person's theological beliefs.
  7. We disqualify words that appear to promote or build up another person over God. We do not believe that God would lift any human higher than Himself under any conditions.
  8. We disqualify all political words, such as "vote for this person" or "vote against that proposition."

After that, the submitted words are prayerfully reviewed. We ask God to show us which ones He wants distributed and which order He wants them distributed in. There are times when God will say, I want this word distrubited, but not in this batch. In those cases the word goes back into the folder to await our next prayerful review session.

If a word is selected for this batch, we then ask God to show us precisely when He wants the word distributed. We do not look at a calandar for special dates/events, we simply ask God to select the order of the words He has selected. It is often amazing how well these words will correlate with special events and holidays, etc.
