Developing a Prophetic Lifestyle & Cultivating a Prophetic Community

By Joshua Cosker

Revised 2025

I'd like to start off with some clarification of the intent and purpose of this manual. This is not another Prophecy 101 manual. I have recommended resources in Appendix II which include some great 101 study materials. This is not meant to be a manual for training prophets or those called to the functional grace. I will cover the topic of prophets in chapter 3 but that is not the sole focus of this manual.

The intent of this manual is primarily to cover the "why" behind prophetic ministry, and how the "why" impacts and flows through every dynamic. Much of the emphasis is on the perspective, filters, and nature of our heart when prophesying. I give a little theological backdrop throughout that is still true to this common thread of "why."

Where applicable, personal experience will be utilized to give some real-life feel to the concept. Another topic of emphasis is the culture for growth and expression. I end with a bit of a dreaming with God notion that is meant to stir your heart and imagination to do likewise. I pray God uses this to stir your heart and inspire a lifestyle of expressing His goodness to those you meet.
