Guest Blogger: Elijah List Steve Schmuck

Bless god partners, Hallelujah! You may not be familiar with the Elijah List but a good friend of mine, Steve Schmuck, organizes, prioritizes, arranges, and presents god's word as spoken through his holy modern day prophets. Steve has asked me, bless god, if he could issue a statement to the modern day prophecy movement on my blog and I told him I would be absolutely delighted. So here's his statement:

Kenny, thanks for letting me post on your blog to get this important word out. Apostles and Prophets from around the globe - welcome! Some of the prophetic words at our regular site "The Elijah List" are starting to get a little over the top. So I thought I would try to restore some order to the prophetic movement. Based on the email feedback I'm getting, we're really starting to lose credibility with mainstream America.

Brothers, now is the time to heed some hard lessons being learned from the whole 'Lakeland Outpouring' debacle. I suspect that soon, Christians are going to be calling for a little more accountability. They might even start weighing our prophetic words against scripture. Is that what we really want? The accuracy of our prophecies has dropped from 5% to around the 3% range with a margin of error of +/- 5%. Something really needs to be done if we are to maintain our status.

Besides accuracy, I've noticed another disturbing fact. Most of the prophecies posted on our website don't even make sense. Take, for example, this recent prophecy by Dutch Sheets:

Get ready for September! It is so huge on God's timetable that it will mark one of the greatest shifts in the spiritual realm that our generation has ever seen:
• A season of suddenlies will begin.
• The confusion and deception ruling America (including within the Church) will begin to lift.
• The November elections will shift toward God's will.
• The coming "great awakening" to America will go to a new level.
• The "presence movement" will begin.

Dutch, we've been friends for a long time but what the hell is that supposed to even mean...a season of suddenlies? We keep using the same words and phrases over and over again but they don't actually mean anything. And what is this whole 'presence movement' bit all about? Is that anything like a bowel movement? C'mon guys, we can do better! The very least we could do is form an intelligible sentence every now and then.

Let's come up with some different words too O.K.? Seriously, words like season, shift, movement, level, vibrate yada, yada, yada...you guys are absolutely wearing these themes out!But enough of these corrective words for today. This is like a celebration, a season of new beginnings in the prophetic movement!

On a positive note, I have been completely thrilled with the whole shofar thing! Let's think of some other really fun ideas. Together we can come up with something new the public can enjoy!

Blessings,

Steve Schmuck

P.S. I need you to be praying about what god is saying for next years' theme but it needs to rhyme with the number 9.
