This portfolio is embryonic and in the early stages, but we intend to establish a recognised prophetic function in NLCCV and beyond.
This portfolio will have three streams of prophetic activity:
School of Prophets
– We will cultivate an environment that recognises the prophetic gifts, activate the prophetic in all ministry areas in and beyond the church. This will include developing and running prophetic training courses. The first course for the School of Prophets, has been launched in April of 2023.
NLC Prophetic Voice
– Will become known as the moral standard bearers and representatives of the truth in the Crouch Valley region and beyond by September of 2024.
The Prophetic Voice will use all forms of media to communicate the Word of the Lord.
NLC’s Prophetic Response
– Initiate Responses/projects, that promotes how to respond to the challenges of our times, in ways that reveal the character and nature of the Saviour of this world, Jesus Christ.
Prophetic responses could be initiatives or projects inspired by the Word of the Lord, to the church or Essex community, we are called to be witnesses to. Examples are LOVE ESSEX. Agabus warning of famine, the believers providing for other local churches, Noah warning of God’s intent to flood the earth, and then building an ark to survive that flood.
