The Lord Told Me

1 Kings 13:17  For it was said to me by the word of the Lord.

Be weary of those who say, “The Lord told me”, especially if it affects the decisions you make or need to make. Counsel is good to seek and should come from someone who is living close to God. A person who not only knows the word of God, but also lives in the word of God. There are many voices that call out to us, but the one voice we must listen to is the one that speaks to our heart through the word of God. God will not have us do anything that is contrary to His word. It matters not how much or how long a person prays, God will NOT command anything that is not consistent with what He has spoken through the written word. Satan will come as an “angel of light” and twist the word of God to misdirect our steps, we must be diligent to seek the truth and ask God to reveal the light of His word to our hearts. The Holy Spirit will not led you into temptation,sin, and disobedience to His word. He is our guiding truth, and will not lead us astray.
