Don't Mix The Prophetic Word (Daily Devotional)

Greetings and thank you for this opportunity to come to you and spend these few moments in God’s word and in prayer. This week, we’ve been talking about learning how to release the gift of prophecy or how to prophecy and we are sharing simple instructions on how all of us can do that. God really wants all of us to be vessels that He can use in this manner and God can use you. There is no reason why you should hold yourself back because the Holy Spirit is in you and upon you. We’ve been talking about various steps that we can take in order to minister to other people through the simple gift of prophecy. Today, we want to learn one more instruction which is don’t mix the prophetic word. In 1 Corinthians chapter 13 and verse 9, the apostle Paul says, ‘For we know in part and we prophesy in part.’ In other words, God knows everything, but He only reveals bits and pieces to us. God is omniscient, we are not. Only what He reveals to us, only what he impresses on us, we can speak. When you pray and say, God, are you saying something to a certain person and you listen in your spirit, maybe a word, scripture, or God reveals certain things He wants you to speak to that person. What must we do? Speak that word faithfully. God says that in Jeremiah chapter 23, ‘him who has my word, let him speak my word faithfully.’ So, we must commit ourselves to speaking what He reveals to us faithfully. Don’t add or subtract from it, in the sense share everything that God has put in your heart. The apostle Paul, like we said, he stated, we know in part and we prophecy in part, that means God only reveals few things to us and we speak those few things, we speak the things that He revels. Don’t try and add to that, don’t try to spice up your prophecy, don’t try to unnecessarily add parts that God didn’t give you, it is only going to confuse the other person and make it very difficult for the other person to know what came from God and what is not from God. We must commit ourselves to only prophecy the part or the parts that God ahs given to us. Don’t add or mix other things with it. Sometimes, when you look at the person, you have some impressions, some prejudices, some of your own thoughts, maybe some information you already know about the person, leave all that aside. Only speak the things God has given to you. Just communicate that. We know in part and we prophecy in are and that is all God wants us to do. Let’s do our part! Let’s pray, Father, we thank you that we could be your mouthpieces, that we could speak the things you put in our hearts and reveal to us and that it will bring blessing to those around us and let it just glorify you, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
