“Our central pivot is the Word of God and the person of Jesus Christ.”
I have learned so much about the call and ministry of the Prophet. More importantly to lean into who I am and how God made me. So I encourage you to know him and be who he wants you to be too!
There is so much here I will spend the rest of the year digesting each Chapter.

A powerful book all prophets need to have. There is so much we have to learn and experience. There are many strategies and insight in this book. Definitely a keeper.

"I cannot think of a better way to spend your life than as a conduit for the voice of God." - Emma Stark
Wow! What an enjoyable read! I so love reading stories about how God uses people prophetically and the stories in this book are some of the best I've ever heard.
I really respect this author's dedication to using her spiritual gift to minister to others and bring life and healing to them. She is a very bold and courageous person who takes risks for God and steps out and speaks things a lot of people wouldn't dare. It's clear that she has a heart to set people free and draw them closer to Christ and she's willing to put herself and her reputation on the line.
She gives a lot of practical advice in the book on how to use the prophetic gift as well as defining the various gifts of the Spirit. I found those chapters most helpful.
With all of that said, I can only give the book three stars because I found some of her interpretations of scripture a stretch beyond what is there. It seemed that at times she was reading into the text things that the text doesn't say (eisegesis). For example, she suggested that the fruit that Adam and Eve ate in the garden in disobedience to God was an apple. But the scripture doesn't say it was an apple. It just says it was a fruit. The author also said that God watched Adam to see if he would name the animals what they were already called in heaven. That's not in scripture. And she seemed to flirt with the troubling 'little gods' doctrine, as taught by the late Kenneth Hagin and Joyce Meyer.
So for those reasons I can only give the book three stars even though I really respect her and appreciate her writing the book. She is truly a prophetic warrior.
A few more quotes -
"I believe that our main role in prophecy is to be malleable and flexible enough that you speak what God wants and not what you want. You become a herald speaking as an official messenger for God. In prophecy, you declare the mind of God. You represent God however He wants to be seen, however He wants to sound, and whatever He wants to say."
"Some folks can look really off-putting when you prophesy over them. Their body language is slumped. They look like they are chewing a wasp. They give off that they are full of depression and sullennesss. It is easy to make the assumption 'I must prophesy about joy' and then get the word all wrong. Never prophesied to the physical presentation of a person."
"In all of the supernatural encounters that I have had they have driven me to a new level of 'holy miserableness' where I have seen His glory and love Him and yet I am even more aware of my own sin in light of his holiness. I say I love Him with all my heart but sometimes these encounters make me see how painfully disconnected I really am."

This book had me 😭😭 alot of the time. I haven't had that from Christian literature for a while.
The practical elements are really useful and the anecdotal stories bring the text to life.
If you are a prophetic person, this book is for you. It will help you understand your personality, call and mantle. I love Emma's boldness. I can definitely relate to about 80% of her personal experiences. Must be a Prophetic Warrior! 🗡️🛡️
A good read 4.5 stars

Wow wow wow
No mincing of words and straight truth-telling and knocking down old mindsets! I am challenged and inspired to go deeper, dream bigger, and just generally expect more out of life. Thank you, Emma Stark, for presenting to your readers a glimpse of the bigness of God through this book, and for propelling us to grab hold of our true destinies in Him!

One of the best prophetic books I’ve ever read, and I’ve read a lot. Meaty, mature, wise, challenging and exciting. It will stretch the reader, provoke you to want more and step out more but above all to go deeper into the ways of God. I thoroughly recommend this book to anyone who is a prophetic or moving in the prophetic.

The kingdom of Heaven is at hand; the gifts are for now!
It's been a couple months since I finished this, but everything was accurately backed up, and useful.
We need to know who we are in Christ, and how to use the gift of prophecy to further His kingdom here on earth.

Amazing insight
I finished this book feeling like I’ve missed so much in my walk with the Lord. I grew up in a Christian home, but the Spiritual realm wasn’t really talked about. This was eye opening!!

WOW WOW WOW. What an amazing book. So very practical. I finished the book but have barely started doing what Emma suggests. I am going to keep working at it.

A good education on the prophetic
I really enjoyed this book. It taught me that I am wired the way I am because of my gifting. I don’t always fit in to “church” or what is considered a “proper and quiet” woman, and I often stick my foot in my mouth. Much of this is because I need to grow in maturity of my gifting. This book will definitely help me to grow as a prophetic person. Mrs. Stark gives “top tips”, prayers, and things to practice.
I want to note that I don’t think I agree with everything Mrs. Stark says on the spiritual but I am able to glean much from the book anyway.
I have the Kindle and Audible version, plus a hard copy. I really liked that the Audible would pick up where I left off in the Kindle version, and vice versa. I like having a hard copy because I like to flip through the book quickly to what I’d like to find. I will definitely read through or listen to this again, and reference this book as I already have in the last few weeks of having it.

Emma inspires me to know God as intimately as she does. She will without a doubt hear, “Well done good and faithful servant.” I love and appreciate her blessings and know they have weight. Definitely helpful and inspirational information to grow in the prophecy gift. As an editor I couldn’t give five stars with the editing lapses (Eg, If he will a name them; knowing that is it your Father’s good pleasure; is goes into a super-normal…). Also believe biblical scholars like Heiser will have a hard time with the Ephesians 4:8 and Psalm 82 interpretations. Still a recommended read.

Great.
I'm reading "The Prophetic Warrior" at the moment and liked her interpretation of Genesis 3 that God was walking in the spirit realm in the garden. In the past, I had wondered about the translation being the "Spirit of the day" but translated "cool of the day." Looking at the Hebrew and other instances of the form of word translated "Of the day" I'm inclined to believe her. I think a better translation is "God was walking in the garden of the Spirit this day." Why translate the prefix to "cool" that is normally translated to, of or for, as "in"? It reminded me of a time when I was in church and in the Spirit realm and saw us sitting in white robes, only there were gaps as some were missing from the circle. I saw Jesus and two men in white robes either side of Him, in our midst, but empty spaces where some sat. They hadn't been born of the spirit.
So, referring to Genesis 3, on this day in the garden, God didn't see Adam and Eve in the Spirit realm. They were missing too.

I learned so much!
The reading was exceptional and was on was on point with so much based on the reading along the decades. There are those that still love Jesus and I learn so much from this book. God is real. When I read the Bible, the words light the pages. This information as was not new, this was different for me and interesting. And at times. I wish I had a word from God from me. Thank Mrs. Emma! You are a beautiful warrior for God!

A book for people who want to see how the spirit of God is moving today.
This is especially for those who walk in the prophetic, or want to choose that path. How to hear God more clearly, be more aware of the ways he speaks into our lives. This is too for those who know we do battle spiritually and want to step up to that calling.

Absolutely Empowering!
This book has so much profound revelatory information about the Prophetic. It has LITERALLY stirred a fire and desire in me to move on my ordained Prophetic Grace and calling. Thank you woman of God for being obedient in teaching and equipping us in our mandates and callings. God bless you and your family abundantly!

Emma uses her own experiences and God’s word to fully open up a new understanding on what it means to be prophetic. She’s included prayers and actions to help you develop this further so this isn’t just knowledge but practical advice that you can take into the real world.
Definitely one I’m going to have to read again!

Timely, wise counsel on how to move in the prophetic ministry with maturity. The testimonies will take your breath away.
I thank God for Emma, her family and the great tidal wave of prophetic movement in the world today of which The Global Prophetic Alliance is a major player. I am very grateful for this book.

It is odd to me how many high reviews there are because this book is seriously lacking in sources. It is compelling, however whenever the author states something occurs in the bible, she more often than not leaves out the actual source from the bible. I am unsure if this entire book is meant to be an anecdote or not.

I feel like a prophetic warrior!! Emma Stark never fails to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable, and well in short I felt so so comforted and normalized as a prophetic person! But not without feeling the push to be more brazen and bold and to live full time in the realm of the Spirit! Thank you so much Emma! You and your ministry have the anointing of God all over it!

I did not read it! I randomly take well-rated books and oh my god... This one was just so unbearable to start with, then scrolled to mid/end and seemed just as unbearable. I'm usually open to any writing style/content, having read hundreds of books, but this one just made me want to throw up. How on hell does it have such a good rating?

Necessary stirring
Prophecy has been a vital part of the Church's armoury from its beginning, but you wouldn't know it from what most churches put on display. This book reminds us that prophecy is relevant, valuable, effective, and important. But it also explains how to use this gift of God. Great!

Emma speaks truth BOLDLY
Read while referring to each scripture reference she uses. The love of the LORD GOD and His Word are clearly heard throughout this great work on the gift of prophecy.

I’m a spiritual being in a physical world; not a physical being trying to access a spiritual world. I am already seated in heavenly places with Christ Jesus. The Lord is wonderful and I am so thankful that the Holy Spirit still inspires written works today just as He did before.
