Examples of the Prophetic Song


We have all been blessed by the timely and anointed use of the prophetic, God-breathed song. Please share an example with us of a song that has impacted your life personally.

One of my favorite worship leaders is Kari Jobe and her song, The More I Seek You, is not a 'spontaneous' song but it is surely prophetic because it reveals something of our Lord that inspires faith.
