2nd Peter 1:20-21 to 2:1-2: "You must understand this at the outset: Interpretation of scriptural prophecy requires the Holy Spirit, for it does not originate from someone's own imagination. No true prophecy comes from human initiative but is inspired by the moving of the Holy Spirit upon those who speak the message that came from God.
In the past there arose false prophets among God's people, just as there will continue to be false teachers who will secretly infiltrate in your midst to divide you, bringing with them their destructive heresies. They will even deny the Master, who paid the price for them, bringing swift destruction on themselves. Many will follow immoral lifestyles. Because of these corrupt false teachers, the way of truth will be slandered."
Discernment
Lord, we need Your thoughts and words all the time in all circumstances. We cannot trust our own confusions that arise. Please guide us through each step said in our words whether talking to ourselves or sharing with others.
Only Your direction and messages as You nudge in Your time.
And remind us to take the time to seek confirmation from You--especially when new ideas arise--so that we stay on Your truth. And to identify subtle proposals that seem so kind.
In all our thoughts--our actions--our relationships.
Your wisdom only from the Spirit's voice.
Your thoughts,
