Daily Dose of God's Word For 7-6
Memory Verse: For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit. 2 Peter 1:21
Read: Those whose theological systems are built around a belief in the continuation of miraculous gifts, such as the Charismatic Movement and the Word of Faith movement, tend to elevate experience above the Word of God as the basis for their beliefs. For more data on this, see the works by John MacArthur called Charismatic Chaos and Strange Fire. Such an appeal to experience is invalid and deceiving; see Matthew 7:21-23; Luke 13:25-28.
Second, in these contexts, the Holy Spirit is often elevated above Jesus Christ, contrary to the Spirit’s stated mission. See John 16:14-15.
Pray
Come, Holy Spirit. Renew in me the gift of reverence so that I may express my awe at your greatness in my thoughts, words, and actions.
