In Power Prophecy, Naim Collins uses Old and New Testament examples, as well as firsthand experiences, to show that the prophetic and miracles go hand-in-hand.

Fußballer tun es, wenn sie einen Elfmeter wollen, Kunden, wenn sie nicht zufrieden sind: Reklamieren. Doch nicht nur wir sind unzufrieden mit unseren Mitmenschen und der Welt. Auch Gott reklamiert. Und hat besondere Gestalten betraut, die Menschen wachzurufen: Die zwölf "Kleinen" Propheten.

Sie reißen Wunden auf, halten Spiegel vor und wischen Tränen ab.

Jesus’ parables. They are widely known–or at least often referenced. But does that mean they are well understood? Having slipped into the lingua franca of our day, we could be missing some of what He was communicating. If familiarity breeds contempt, perhaps our sense that we know these stories insulates us from what Jesus was saying about life with God.

In Scripture, the Israelites fought battles against seven nations before they could dwell in their promised land.

There is a familiar passage of scripture, Matthew 10:16, that is greatly misunderstood. Jesus is sending the apostles out on their first evangelistic mission and he tells them, “I am sending you out as sheep among wolves.” A major part of the misunderstanding comes from the fact that these were grown men, despite referring to them as lambs.

At times, our chaotic world reveals hints of the utter brokenness in which we live, like a peek behind the veneer. As people of faith in a powerful God, we want to lift our faces to heaven to cry out or bury our face in our hands to whisper prayers. Either way we utter things like “God, please help,” “God, what are you doing?” “God, those people are terrible!” And we aren’t alone in those words we lift to heaven. In fact, our frustrating and exhausting experience with chaos, injustice, and corruption is much like that of the distressed prophet Habakkuk in the Old Testament.

According to one song, “today is only yesterday’s tomorrow” - which means that tomorrow starts today! But we aren’t going to see our future by looking at the past. Yes, we need to celebrate and honor what has brought us to where we are. However, it will not be enough to get us to what God has in store. We need to let go of the old to receive the new.
