YES, GOD STILL SPEAKS THROUGH REVELATION

    1. Wanda,
      I am a recipient of the revelation for the Seven Letters. For centuries, the only application of the letters is that they represent the progression of time over the centuries, with Laodicea being the church of the last days. With My Letter to You, Holy Spirit has given a fresh word for the Ecclesia in this hour. Hope you have been able to read it!

    2. If God’s Spirit is not giving us (any) revelation today, James 1:5 is a lie – along with a lot of other Christian principles. Perhaps the controversy is more about degree and mode of delivery than revelation itself. Without any “fresh” word, how can anyone “know” they are saved? Without the wisdom God affords us the Gospel itself loses meaning! I believe there is a healthy concern about what Ezekiel warned about prophets claiming a word from the Lord who had not seen anything [Ezek 13:3]. Let’s face it – it’s easy & tempting to stand up and SAY, “The Lord told me….” Perhaps He did – perhaps He did not. If only Scripture gave us a TEST…
      . . . I John 4:1, “Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see if they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.” There are tests of prophetic messages in Scripture. One obvious being that Scripture will NEVER contradict itself. We must NEVER act outside the immediate sense that God LOVES His Church – which includes me …and probably the person speaking! ? ? The Spirit will speak AND persuade His people to receive Truth.

    3. In my 70+ years on this earth, I have had three direct revelations: a vision, a spoken word and a direct impression. The first two I confirmed by scripture: 2 Peter 3, and John 21. The first part of the third was a close quote from scripture; the second half was a directive: “Now you need to step out in faith.”
      I have always had an intuitive approach to life, and since I came to know Jesus as Lord (at age 16), I have been directed many times by the Holy Spirit: “Do this; don’t do that.” It’s most often a sense of direction in my heart. And I don’t actively seek revelation: it finds me.
      A recent example. In July/August 2023, I felt a directive to begin a Substack covering a number of things in my life, but particularly calling for repentance, revival and renewal in light of the way our nation was, and has been going. I did that, and it never reached a large audience but those it reached seemed to appreciate it. Along with the writing, I also began a practice of prayer and fasting: prayer every evening, and fasting three mornings a week. After the election last year, I thought that perhaps I could let up on the prayer and fasting. In a very short while, the impression came: “Not yet. Keep fasting and praying.”

      All is by revelation

        IS ADHERANCE TO THE LAW ROBBING US OF BELIEF IN THE SUPERNATURAL?

        Even as we examine the operation of spiritual gifts and bring some needed reforms, let’s also remind ourselves that there is an unseen realm that no one will never be able to explain or proof text. The ways and means of God are not merely written words, but spiritual realities with power.

        ONLY THE HUMBLE HAVE ACCESS…

        The word of the Lord in this hour will not come from mighty platforms or large auditoriums. It will not come through commercialized channels or popular brands. It will come through those who are broken of spirit and laid low at the altar of total surrender. It is those who have forsaken the houses of men in order to pursue the House of the Lord who will hear Him speak.

        THE COST OF LEAVING

        God is doing a radical work within the Body of Christ that is both painful and costly. A Refiner’s fire is sweeping through the Church that is testing both character and conduct. He is lifting the standard of righteousness and seeing who can pass through the flames as purified vessels. And to bring us through safely, He is calling many to walk away from what was once “home.”
