In this special podcast episode, Matthew Lilley and Jonathan Friz have an extended follow-up discussion on the Jonathan’s recent article 'Don’t Overcorrect: The US Prayer Movement after the Mike Bickle Scandal' and its impact. They explore the global prayer movement, the teachings of Mike Bickle and the IHOPKC prophetic history - acknowledging the need for discernment and evaluating teachings and prophecy based on Scripture.

• The global prayer movement is a real Holy Spirit orchestrated movement that is spreading organically and cannot be stopped.
• While Mike Bickle's teachings have had a significant impact, it is important to evaluate them based on scripture and exercise discernment.
• The teachings on intimacy with God, day and night prayer, and other biblical themes are still valuable and should not be dismissed.
• It is wise to learn from leaders who not only have gifting but also demonstrate biblical character.
• Overcorrection should be avoided, and the importance of intimacy with God and biblical truths should not be diminished. Do not overcorrect or dismiss prophetic ministry altogether, but be discerning and test prophetic words.
• Healthy community and accountability are essential for spiritual growth and avoiding manipulation.
• Prophetic ministry should be evaluated and tested in light of Scripture and the leading of the Holy Spirit.
• The proper corrections include humility, healthy relationships, and a balanced focus on loving God and loving others.
• Pioneers often make mistakes, but their pioneering efforts pave the way for breakthroughs and new pathways.
