This one I had I feel led to share.
I saw someone I know on TV. They were at someone's ministry but they were recording them. Everyone could see. It was a large ministry.
The person was a challenge. The leaders did what they knew to do. What they've done before. What worked before.
The scene changed. I was now giving a message.
I knew I was surrounded by church people, leaders. It was a big church but the circle I was speaking to was a group.
What I was preaching about I felt like it was so I could make other leaders aware. We were going to be tried. To test our authority in the Lord but I had to warn that whatever it is (the challenge/test) and whenever it happens, that whatever we do DO NOT just go into warfare without consulting the Holy Spirit right then FIRST. Do not make a move without asking what to do, FIRST. There was more but that was the main thing that stood out. Lean heavily on HOLY SPIRIT's consult.
We are accustomed to "knowing" what to do based on what we've done. It worked the last time.
Example: what is normally considered "warfare" tactics will this time need to be a simple hug. But, because we're used to doing things a certain way we'll miss the opportunity to allow the person to have true deliverance (revealed truth of Jesus and themselves in Him) GOD'S way.
According to scripture, there was a time that King David, who fought battles and was given victory more than once had enough wherewithal to inquire of the Lord, again. Even though he had prior experiences and victories.
This is not to say toss out your intelligence, education, critical thinking, but there are going to be people from all walks of life to come into the houses. ONLY GOD knows their beginning, current life, and DIVINE destiny. We can tend to pigeonhole people into what we see and think. Even with all of our prophetic gifting, we only see and hear in part. ACCORDING to what God REVEALS.
As much as we lean and look to Holy Spirit for guidance...we need to pause in the moments moreso and LEAN MORE in depending on the COUNSELING of God.
Again, people are going to show up that are going to exhibit unchurched behavior and "appearances", some demonically influenced, some into dark things, some just unchurched but we will have to know what God knows about each person and situation and not rely on what we've always done. Or what we "think" we should do.
The ORDER of the LORD and the consult of HOLY SPIRIT is ALWAYS right.
2 Corinthians 4:7
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
