THE SEED
“He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches” Revelations 3:6
According to 2 Peter 1:19-21, the Holy Spirit spoke through holy men of God certain words of life which were later documented as the Bible. This shows that the Spoken Word birthed the Written Word. To many Christians, that is the end of the matter. This should not be because the Holy Spirit is still speaking today. Whenever the Spirit speaks, never allow the words to go undocumented. This means you could document personal or family experiences in the faith and consult it regularly. Following this line of thought, Apostle Paul told his spiritual son Timothy, “This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to prophecies which went before on Thee, that thou by them mightiest war a good warfare”(1 Tim. 1:18). Every word of prophecy that is spoken into your life must be documented. Words of knowledge, words of wisdom, specific directions of the Spirit about particular situation or prophetic utterances through clean vessels must be documented. Since they are part of ‘every word proceeding from the mouth of the Lord’, you can hold on to them, stand on them, use them to fight and ask that they be established. Everything God has spoken to you should be documented as your personal ‘Bible’ or else you could forget, lose or truncate its purpose in your life. Never accept any prophecy from fake prophets!
