There are two battles we face in every issue. One battle to take ground and another to hold it and occupy the territory (2 Samuel 5:1725). We all know people who won the battle to get free but lost the battle to stay free. There is a call to fight upon every one of us, and Barbaras book stirs up the warrior that is part of our prophetic identity. Prophets live in the grip of the one true, great territorial Spirit who marked out the land for each tribe to occupy (Judges 1521). We love the land of the Spirit. We love battle. Barbaras book is for overcomers, warriors and giants: people who want to rise up and occupy till He comes. I heartily recommend it as an important resource in the development of people of substance.

Graham Cooke, author, Prophetic Wisdom

In Fighting for Your Prophetic Promises Barbara Wentroble brings a balanced yet powerful approach regarding hearing the voice of the Lord. This book will be an inspiration to those just beginning their journey into understanding the gifts of the Holy Spirit; it will also challenge those who have operated in the prophetic in past seasons to press into a fresh prophetic dimension in their lives. Readers will receive not only principles for information but also an anointing for impartation to fight to see Gods prophetic purposes fulfilled in the earth.

Barbara Wentroble has done a marvelous job of providing us with clear guidelines, admonitions, boundaries and, most of all, opportunities to experience the riches and graces of the Spirits work in our lives, in terms of the many aspects of prophetic ministry. She has brilliantly covered all the ground where concerns have been raised. And without compromising the Scriptures or the intent of God, she has shown us the tremendous significance not only of the role of the prophetic in the twenty-first-century Church, but also of fighting and warring in prayer and declaration for the prophetic utterances, dreams and visions we have received on our journey. May Barbaras work, which you now hold in your hands, serve as the tool she and the Lord intend to keep you moving forward.

Barbara has penned a powerful tool for all who desire to move in the prophetic gifting and for those who also have received a prophetic word. Readers will be enriched and strengthened in the prophetic. My wife and I have been impacted personally by prophetic words Barbara has spoken over us. Now you as a reader can be impacted as you dive into this book. I highly recommend Fighting for Your Prophetic Promises .

There is a young generation arising with strong prophetic giftings. Dale and I are blessed with grandchildren who are part of that powerful generation!

This book is lovingly dedicated to my wonderful grandchildren. May each of them fulfill Gods great prophetic destiny for their lives! They make me thankful to be called their Grandma.
