Chapter Nine
A New Book
One of the most incredible side effects of my new creation was how the Scriptures felt alive as I read them with the supernatural understanding from the stimulation of revelation. Everything was brand new. I was now seeing familiar Scriptures in a different light, which gave more understanding than before. The Scriptures were suddenly understandable, as they were now tying together with other Scriptures throughout the Bible making a complete love letter to His bride. The Bible says three is a witness. God does His own interpreting.
It is so comforting to know God leads and directs us when we submit our all to Him.
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.
Proverbs 3:5,6
Many times, we must give up our old traditions that have been passed down to have real truth unveiled. God has continually brought His people from where they are unto new heights. He is always on the move. It is only we, as mortals, that stop and cling to the truths we now have, but the life of God moves on.
The Word of God is everything. It will not mix with man-made theologies or anything else. When you try to mix it with something else, it becomes hybrid and loses its life producing abilities, as it does with water baptism.
We have been warned many times in the Scriptures of false prophets that would be so close they would deceive the very elect, if possible.
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Matthew 24:24
Never follow after supernatural signs, as they can be deceiving. I know of a man in the Carolinas with a healing ministry. He lays his hands on people with great results and, to my knowledge, has no spiritual relationship or belief in God. He calls it energy healing.
Always test everything with the Word and by their fruits you shall know them.
