God's Words in and out of us

I will put my words in his mouth he will tell everything I command him
Duet 18
 I will pour out my spirit on all my people
Your sons and daughters will prophesy
Young men will see visions
Old men will dream dreams
Even on my servants both men and women I will pour out my spirit in those days and they will prophesy.
Acts 2:18

God continues to speak - Primarily through the Bible - but also through us as God's spirit works in and through us to reveal his truth. Jesus says to his disciples in John 16

But when he the spirit of truth comes, he will guide you in all truth. He will not speak on His own, he will only speak what he hears and He will tell you what is yet to come.

As the dwelling place of the Holy Spirit I too belive that God can reveal his truth through us. It never goes beyond scripture but can powerfully speak to the lives of people. The gift of prophecy is still active today in the life of the church, let us continue to be the chanell for God to speak.
 
Ask him today who you are to build up and encourage
Who do you need to send a bible verse too today - Ask God who and what?  and then have faith to act.
 
Remember the context of the use of any gift is love -  This is not about you  - It's from God for others!!
 
Follow the way of love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy. 1 Cor 14:1
