Description:
Rick Joyner says, "We have tended to over-focus on the end of the age-the end times. But this is not just the end, it's the beginning of a new age when Christ will rule over the earth! For the church to reclaim the high ground of hope for the future, we must begin to proclaim the beginning, the coming of the kingdom." In A Prophetic Vision for the 21st Century, Joyner discusses why revival tarries for America, what it means to be delivered from the Mark of the Beast, the rise and fall of America, the greatest awakening, a famine in the land, and practical ways to serve in the latter days. It includes encouragement for weary church leaders as well as the second part of The Hordes of Hell are Marching, illustrating the unified church rising as an army in the most pivotal battle of all time between the light and darkness.
Details: Over the previous 10 years or so I've read a number of Rick's books and journal writings. Each making various claims to having 'spiritual " insight and giving "prophetic" revelations. Trouble is if you actually check up on some of Rick's actual previous predictions /teachings you come up with a bad track record. For instance Joyner predicted in that 1989 that the chinese communist party would fall very soon. ( In fact it's grown stronger) Or in the early 90's that limited nuclear weapons would be exchanged in the next Iraqi war ! Given no-one can even find WMD,another mistaken prediction. No-where in his book does he address these failings .
As for Rick's discerment, you only have to look at the man he constantly promoted over the past 15 years as the new breed of the prophetic , Paul Cain . Recently it was been publically revealed the depths of bondage the man was addicted to and the deep spiritual darkness he was in . If Rick couldn't even "see" the problems that one of his own fellow ministers has , how can he say he's gifted in a discerning ministry ? It really saddens me to write this review, but at some point you have to speak out and say when someone is mistaken in their claims and is not promoting a true prophetic calling.
Review Summary: Must read!!!

Details: This is a great book. Scripture is frequently quoted to support excellent and insightful views. The book was written just before Y2K and is remarkably correct in predicting what seems to be the current (2002) state of the US economy. If you are at all interested in the responsibilities and future of today's churches, this is a must read and must act guide.
