During his ministry, which included extended pastorates in Chicago and Toronto, Dr. Tozer was often referred to as a prophet. That doesn't mean he predicted future events, but rather he spoke God's truth to believers and the culture, even if it meant disrupting the status quo. Even in the Bible, prophets were much more likely to hold God's people and their leaders accountable to the truth of God's Word than to foretell the future. The encouragement in Voice of a Prophet is that the church today is in desperate need of the kind of prophet Tozer embodied and describes in this important book. Using the lives of such prophets as Elijah, Elisha, and John the Baptist, Tozer underscores the importance of the ministry of the prophet in our world today.
Key to the plan of God's revelation to mankind was the ministry of the biblical prophets. Through them came insights, both moral and spiritual, affirming his character and the nature of his covenants. Line upon line, precept upon precept, the prophets build their case for a coming Messiah to redeem his people and establish his kingdom. The Voice of the Prophets book, highlight the major and minor prophets of the Old Testament and four of the New Testament prophets and prophetesses. Each profile includes a painting of the prophet and a biblical interpretation of the image.
The Rise of the Prophetic Voice is an educational and revolutionary book that deals with biblical truths about the prophetic and its practical operation in our time. This book is a rare tool of the Holy Spirit, dedicated to shedding light about the prophetic to the body of Christ and to raising an end-time army of prophets for the Lord. The prophetic is the oldest and most documented ministry in the Bible, yet it is the least known in today's generation. No other ministry is known to be more effective in the Kingdom of God than the prophetic. The Bible, the most sacred book we have in the Kingdom of God, is a prophetic book; the birth of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ was a fulfilment of a prophetic word. God is restoring the prophetic in the church and calling all his sons and daughters to be prophetic. The world today glorifies individualism and independence from God as a pathway to freedom, rendering the very essence of God irrelevant. However, the well-informed, Spirit- led and powerful revelations in * Rise of the Prophetic Voice * demonstrate God's unfailing power and establishes his supremacy amongst men once again. This book will give you the biblical foundation of the prophetic, help you to discover your calling or gift in it and ignite in you its fire. Beyond all doubts, I believe this book will revolutionise the lives of its readers and restore the glory of the mighty God in the world.
All God's people have been given the ability not only to hear his voice, but to speak his words. Yet some still believe that the gift of prophecy ceased with the death of the New Testament apostles.
