Psalms
119:105 KJV
“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”
I have seen so many believers who desperately want to
be led by the Holy Spirit. They feel so bad when they hear people say things
like "the Holy Spirit spoke to me...", or "God led me",
etc. But what many people fail to know is that God will never lead you by the
Holy Spirit when He has not been able to lead you by His word.
If God will ever speak to your spirit directly, He
will need some raw materials, and that raw material is His written word. When
the Holy Spirit begins to speak to you, He will speak the word of God to you
and that is the way you can differentiate between a false spirit and the Spirit
of God. You have to be acquainted with the word of God, you have to so pour it
into your spirit and that way you will be guided each step of the way.
I have seen so many people's lives destroyed because they felt or thought they were
being led by the Holy Spirit at a point, and because they had no word of God in
their minds and spirits, they were led astray. Every voice you hear or anything
you hear must be judged by the word of God to be sure they are of God. You are
supposed to throw away any voice or leading that goes against the word of God.
Jesus kept resisting the devil’s temptations by the word, even to the point
where the devil quoted the word of God. All Jesus kept saying was "it is
written". If you do not know what is written, you will be led into error;
and some errors can be fatal and irreversible.
Be guided by the word today in Jesus Name.
Assignment/Prayer
-Lord guide me in your word in the Name of Jesus.
-Lord create a hunger in my spirit for your word in Jesus Name.
Nugget
God will never lead you by the Holy Spirit when He has not been able to lead
you by His word. So, if you do not know what is written, you will be led into
error.
