Well, I do not ask for some "feel-good" stuff, but I don't find any valuable content in that mishmash. It's a mechanical structure, full of words, nothing much of Spirit. I always wonder how saints stand up and prophesy. The messages are hardly related to me. (They were related years ago, but not anymore). It's almost as spiritual as a phone book.
Usually I define as Early-Lee has messages spoke prior to 1974 and later Lee as 1974-1997.
As for The Holy Word for Morning Revival, it's just clanging cymbals. Sure someone can prophesy from it on Sunday morning.
1. Do they comprehend what they're prophesying?
2. Does it correspond into daily life situations?

By comparison, I find more value for example in Proverbs, the Book of James, etc in providing depth for daily living.

And a hearty "Amen" to that!

1 I am not sure. I have stopped listening. When they start prophesying, I fish out my phone and start reading the news.

2. Does it correspond into daily life situations? Sometimes it does. Generally, if it's not related to their lives, it's all idle talk and sound waves. I really wonder how some saints can talk non-stop. They have a knack for it. I have never had such mental abilities.

I have one of those "revival" things on my table. Its title says "Entering into the Fourth Stage of the Experience of Life to Arrive at a Full-grown Man for the Fulfillment of God's Purpose." English is not my native language. I had to reread the title three times... each time with admiration of a rare genius of the unknown luminaries who struggle to translate this first-grade nonsense into my mother tongue.

I have an old friend who would start sharing from the Bible during this "prophetic" time. Things went fairly well in the beginning since he was new to the place, having just relocated to that mile high city. Then one of the sisters happened to stand and said "Oh praise the Lord, what brother So-n-so said was really good." He grimaced, knowing his time was near.

Afterwards the elders asked if they could "fellowship" with him.

They asked him not to come back.

Wish it were the other way around.
