Publisher's Description
Ecstatic prophecy is a form of prophecy in which the prophet is completely overtaken by the Holy Spirit--body, soul, and spirit--and prophesies almost as an oracle. In Ecstatic Prophecy, Stacey Campbell, a respected teacher and regular and high-profile recipient of this gift, explains the ins and outs of this remarkable mode of prophecy. She takes readers through biblical and early church examples of ecstatic prophecy and uncovers the history of its occurrence until modern times. She also examines how those with this gift can mature in it, avoid deception by testing spirits, and use this method of prophesying to grow closer to God and to reveal Jesus. This unique book will be compelling to anyone who follows prophetic literature and movements, as well as to those who may be experiencing ecstatic prophecy without understanding it.

Foreword
“Ecstatic Prophecy caught me off guard. I knew it would be good, as both the life and ministry of Wesley and Stacey Campbell have had an impact on me for many years. But little did I realize that what I thought would be a great book for a unique segment of the Body of Christ would actually become a necessary book for the entire Body of Christ. It is with excitement that I recommend this book, and it is with joy that I await its impact on the Church—and ultimately, the nations.”
“Ecstatic Prophecy is a powerful read that reveals biblical truth and revelatory insight to everyone who believes that in the last days, the Church will be a prophetic people (see Joel 2:28ff). I highly recommend this book, written by my dear friend and associate Stacey Campbell, who has been used to release the prophetic all over the world.”
“Stacey Campbell’s book on ecstatic prophecy is very important. Actually, it goes beyond prophecy to ecstatic experience. From Jonathan Edwards to our own day, there have been great defenders of the ecstatic and great detractors. This book will help us make our way through the fog of the debate and provide some solid ground for approaching this important subject.”
“Stacey Campbell is not only a dear friend of mine; she is a true friend of God. Ecstatic Prophecy is an excellent manual of solid biblical teaching, prophetic testimonies and nuggets from lives modeling a deeper devotion to God and fruitfulness flowing from intimacy with Him. This book will challenge you to be more fully possessed by His glorious presence. My prayer is that the Holy Spirit will completely consume us until we truly walk in the ‘greater things’ Jesus is calling us to.”
“With truth that penetrates and experience that reveals, Stacey and Wesley Campbell have given us a modern-day treatise on varieties of prophetic expression. Paul the apostle said there are varieties of manifestations, and the grounded teaching teaching contained in this book amplifies that reality. We have needed this book for a long time, and it will add weight and credibility to the move of God in our day and in the future.”
“I love Stacey Campbell! She is an amazing champion and intimate friend of the Holy Spirit. As a prophet and forerunner, she challenges us to go beyond the ordinary and grasp the extraordinary reality with signs and wonders following. Ecstatic Prophecy is a clarion call and timely book from the arsenal of heaven to mobilize God’s army into divine destiny. Stacey masterfully gives great insight into sensitive issues and questions surrounding the gift of ecstatic prophecy. With scriptural clarity, historical evidence, revelation from the Holy Spirit and her own prophetic journey into this unknown vista, Stacey dismantles the stigmas attached to ecstatic prophecy. She also demystifies this often misunderstood gift of the Holy Spirit by eloquently balancing the Word of God and the Holy Spirit. “She has paid the price many times to embrace this gift, often standing alone and being misunderstood and judged, but this has given Stacey the authority to speak into this area and help sort things out for leaders and laity. As the saying goes, ‘A man with experience is not at the mercy of a man with only an argument.’ As the winds of adversity blow, it has only caused Stacey’s roots to grow deeper into the Lord. That is the bottom line of this book: to know and love Jesus and lead others to Him.”

Stacey does not approach this topic as a casual observer of a current fad, but as a disciplined, humble, tenacious servant striving to hear and obey the voice of the living God.”
