Steve Shultz, founder of the ElijahList, writes: Back in the early 1990's, while still working in the business world, before the words "Internet" or "World Wide Web" were being used by the average consumer, I was given a word by a prophet in Texas. He said to me, "You will be connecting the prophets by computer." I thought, "What's that about? Nothing like that is happening now. Not even anything close." Then one day in the Spring of 1997, I sat in my living room, playing on the Internet. I started trying to find some encouraging prophetic words to send to a few friends. I emailed some words I had found, once or twice, each time manually typing emails of my friends in the "TO:" slot.

Then I thought, I wonder if I could make a list of all my friends? So I read up on it and made my one-time list of 30 friends and sent the first LIST out, hoping my friends would enjoy getting some encouraging prophetic words. The next day an email arrived with a request: "Subscribe please." "Subscribe?" I thought. "What's that about?" Of course, I'd forgotten the word from years earlier that I'd connect the prophets by computer. So I subscribed that person. Then the next day I received another one and then another one. As of today, there are over 135,000 subscribers and we grow by hundreds of subscribers weekly. During the last 10 years we've networked many of God's prophets with each other via what we have published by them. Many prophets who formerly had no connection with one another now do -- and they've done conferences together, sat on prophetic roundtables, and have since held one another jointly accountable.
