I’m going to hit two subjects in this post: 1.) theBurning magazine that’s under development and also 2.) bringing biblical clarification to the call to be ‘in order’ in our churches.  Also, stay tuned for a future post where I’ll share a prophetic word about the spirit of Pilate in the church.

First- the magazine:

You can see the cover (a work in progress) of our new magazine under development here.

I’m looking for people who are in the prophetic/revival/prayer flow who would be interested in submitting articles, prophetic art, photography and other material. 

You can see the prophetic word “Almost Homosexual” that this first edition will be centered on here. 

I’d also like to highlight prophetic artists, share their work and their bio, etc. 

Additionally, I’m looking for advertisers/sponsors.  The magazine will be available online, and also in printed version… print on demand for now, possibly subscription based later.

Let me know if you have and thoughts or ideas.  I’d love to hear them.  I plan on having the first edition ready by July 1… but, it may end up being August 1, depending on how things pan out.

I’ll be working on a website for the magazine where people can submit content and learn more about the vision.  It will be linked to our developing training center, theBurning : a prophetic school of revival… that site is www.theburningschool.com.

If you know of anybody who you feel would be a good fit, to submit their work, please forward this on!

Second- Biblical order:

1 Cor 14:40 is one of the most misunderstood scriptures in the Bible.

1 Corinthians 14:39-40 (NKJV) ³⁹ Therefore, brethren, desire earnestly to prophesy, and do not forbid to speak with tongues. ⁴⁰ Let all things be done decently and in order.

Very often those who are uncomfortable with expression in a corporate setting will pull that scripture in an attempt to temper what’s going on. To control the atmosphere. Worse, most often people use it with an arrogant and judgmental attitude… they look at those who aren’t acting they way they think they should as ‘out of order’.

Is it possible that those who aren’t responding to the stirring of the Holy Spirit are the ones who are actually out of order?

That verse immediately follows verse 39: Therefore, brethren, desire earnestly to prophesy, and do not forbid to speak with tongues.

In context, it makes much more sense that a lack of a prophetic atmosphere, a lack of praying in tongues, is actually a service that’s out of order.

If we think that we can simply stand there and clap our hands and grin when the power of God burns in us, we don’t really understand God.

Consider this: What if lightening were to strike somebody. That person would react severely. Lightening is a created substance.

What if an angel visited someone in the night. That person would tremble and fall to their face. An angel is a created being.

If a created substance can cause us to manifest and a created being can cause us to manifest… what if the Creator were to touch us? Wow. We would react with such quaking and breaking with tears and groans that can’t be uttered!

This is very decent and very much in order.
