Things to think about…
Hosea 12:13 (KJV) By a prophet the Lord brought Israel out of Egypt (world-bondage) and by a prophet was he preserved (guarded-protected-kept)
Hosea 12:13 (Youngs Trans.) The Lord used a prophet to bring the people of Israel out of Egypt, he used a prophet to take care of them.
Of course you and I know that God used prophets in the Old and New Testaments to speak to His people, to leaders and nations. We know that He is still using prophets in our day to speak to you and I. The Word of God has much to teach and say about this subject. They are called watchmen, seer's and of course spokesmen. A prophet is an inspired individual, they see into the invisible realm (spirit) and speak for God, revealing God unto men and His present purposes unto their generation. It is vital that you and I have a very clear word from heaven in our lives. Prophets sometimes do this as well as confirm what we hear God saying corporately and individually. A clear word from God keeps us on the right track and assures victory in our lives. With all the voices and utterances that surround us today I challenge you to look at the source and compare what is being said to God's Word. God's Word is very sure as is every TRUE PROPHETIC word.
May we come to our services with hunger and expectation that God will speak to us - His voice is what brings deliverance from the world and keeps our families and lives on track...said another way, keeps us going in the RIGHT direction!
