Ever have anyone tell you that they have a Word from the Lord for you? BEWARE! Usually, such words from the Lord surprisingly like personal opinion, and usually, the “word from the Lord” benefits or helps the person who shares it with you in some way.<\/p>\n

I remember several years ago when my family was moving from one town to another, another Christian in town called up my parents and said that they had a word from the Lord for them. Apparently, God had told this person that my parents should give them their house. My mom responded wisely, I think. She said, “If God wants us to give you our house, He will let us know.” He never did.<\/p>\n

Anyway, be careful and wary of people who have words from the Lord for you. \u00a0Such “words from the Lord” may even be what God meant by “taking His name in vain.<\/a>“<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
