What is Prophetic Song?I can think of many people who would answer that question like this: Prophetic Song is a song that is prophetic, right? How would you define Prophetic Song? In his subtitle, Prophetic Song author Stan Smith seems to define prophetic song to be a gateway to glory. Gateway to glory?……think about those words for a moment. gateway. gate. in and out. open and shut. Gateway gateway. gate. in and out. open and shut. Glory glory. hmmmmm. victory? smoke and clouds? happiness? what is glory? This prophetic song book is a complete educational meal when it comes to the prophetic song. It reminded me of a textbook. It took me longer to read than some of the other recent books. There were several things I really appreciated about this book, but first, let me share my favorite quotes: Worship Leading quotes by Stan Smith, author of Prophetic Song. Here are a few thought-provoking quotes from this worship leading book:
My Take-Aways from Prophetic Song There are two things that really stuck out to me as I read Prophetic Song. These two ideas intrigued me because I had never heard or thought things this way before. Find out what they are… I really think it is an exciting moment when what I have knowledge of is expanded to new borders and insights. I guess some people call this revelation. I heard a great definition of Revelation once: revealed knowledge. Idea #1 In the book of revelation, it was brought to my attention that Jesus has two prophetic voices. Both sounds are the voice of the same God. Perhaps He has more, but these are the two prophetic voices I learned about:
Idea #2 There are two rivers flowing out from the throne of God. One is a river of living water clear as crystal. The other is a river of fire. Without going into any explanations, this idea also peaked my curiosity. This river of fire can be found in Daniel 7:9-10 “….His throne was flaming with fire, and its wheels were all ablaze. A river of fire was flowing, coming out from before him…..” I think Stan Smith takes this idea of two rivers and develops quite an interesting idea of Gods Glory. Get the book and find out more. Action Step Finally, This prophetic song textbook closes each chapter with two assignments. One for non-musicians and singers. one for musicians. |
