I have read this book several times and have bought copys of it for several people. I love what Bishop Hamon does with this book. I have the audio version of this book called the 10M's and I must say if you are wanting to move into God's finest this is the book to help you get there. It helps you to discern any weed seeds and character flaws that you need to deal with and to move in a greater understanding and capacity of the Prophetic. This book is a must for the serious student of Prophecy or one ministering in the Prophetic gifts.

This review is from: Prophets, Pitfalls and Principles: God's Prophetic People Today (Prophets (Christian International)) (Paperback)

For the past twenty years or so God developed a passion in me for the prophetic and so I've gotten to read a lot of books dealing with the revelatory ministry. This is by far one of the better ones, the author bases his most of his examples on scripture and whilst occasionally gives a ministry story. His desire is to teach from God's word foremost. The subjects he deals with, like jealously, are very convicting and relevant.
His writing has a good style, and whilst not overtly technical ( few Greek -Hebrew word discussions etc ) portrays the heart of the subject and has good applications for follow up.

It is nice to see a ministry book that deals with the problem areas and dangers of a position , as well as the more flamboyant "public side" of it. Good and necessary balance to the unrealistic trend in other authors writing only their success theology. Wish there were more teaching like this.

The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is that every ministry I believe has room for improvement, and there were some areas I wish the book had explored more , like discernment. I also had a few minor difference of viewpoint on some of the pages.But that said, Brother Hamon has done an excellent job on this book and I whole heartily recommend it.

This book should be used in basic training for prophets. It uncovers some pitfalls that must be avoided in order to move in effective prophetic ministry.
