YOUR PROPHET

28th December, 2015 (Monday) - WORDS OF LIFE 

YOUR PROPHET 

(Scripture) :- Hebrews 1:1-2a, KJV, "God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son..."

(The Word) :- Good morning Beloved  ☺. Hope you had a good night? 

We, as humans, are described as pilgrims, who are not familiar with the land they are visiting but however rely on the person leading the team to show us around and take us back to our country. As believers, God is the one leading our team and we rely on Him for directions throughout our journey on earth.

Through our anchor scripture, we see that, in previous times, God spoke to His people through the prophets but since Jesus came and the Holy Spirit was given to us, He began to speak with us directly. 

That immediately tells me that I have become my own prophet. No prophet can know God's will for my life as a believer. Rom. 8:14 says, "As many as are LED BY THE SPIRIT...", so the Spirit Himself bears witness with my own spirit (Rom. 8:16) and not the spirit of another prophet. Any other prophet, however, is permitted to confirm what God has previously shown me. 

You ask why? It's because God already knew it would come to this. That a time will come when people will begin to run to prophets to help them find out God's will for their life (career, academic, marriage, etc.) and the bad news is that false prophets have gone out into the world (2 Tim. 3), so they become misguided and then run back to God to complain. 

In these last days, everyone  who wants to be successful must rely solely on God and build a personal relationship with the Holy Spirit. If not, we are bound to make mistakes. He has promised divine guidance, all you need to do is play your part of the deal and see Him speaking to your ears where you should go at each and every point in time (Isa. 30:21).

If you're a believer, you're not a Bastard! You're a son (Rom. 8:15). You carry the Spirit. Create that connection with Him and BOOM! Like a rocket, you're limitless.  #SELAH 

Further Bible Study :- 2 Timothy 3
