The Father led you by speaking the Word. Christ is the Word. Faith comes by hearing the Word.

“So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word [leading] of God (Romans 10:17 KJV).

Christ authors faith in you.

“looking unto Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith (Hebrews 12:2a KJV).

Faith gives you a vision of hope.

“Now faith is the substance [reality as opposed to concept] of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen” (Hebrews 11:1 KJV).

God gives you spiritual eyes to see Christ as He is, and you see He’s a many-membered body.

“Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is (1 John 3:2 KJV).

In God’s vision of hope, He shows you your place in that body. And He shows you the Christ in each member. He leads. You follow by the power of grace. Grace does God’s righteousness through you. [A prayer. A prophecy. A kind word. An act that helps someone. Doing what’s right. Turning from error or sin. Fulfilling a responsibility.] You receive the gift of righteousness and allow it to do what God intended for that moment.

“For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ” (Romans 5:17 KJV).

The Holy Spirit has planted the Seed in your heart, and that Seed is Christ.

“And He spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a Sower went forth to sow; And when He sowed, some Seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up: Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth: And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away. And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them: But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold….Hear ye therefore the parable of the Sower. When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received Seed by the way side. But he that received the Seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the Word, and anon with joy receiveth it; Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the Word, by and by he is offended. He also that received Seed among the thorns is he that heareth the Word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the Word, and he becometh unfruitful. But he that received Seed into the good ground is he that heareth the Word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty (Matthew 13:3-23 KJV).

That Seed is the Word. The Word proceeds from the Father. The Word is Christ Who now dwells in you.

Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God (Matthew 4:4b KJV).

God doesn’t want anyone to walk alone. We walk as a body. A person alone can go astray, and no one is there to correct him or her. All ministries must walk in submission to God’s delegated authority in every other ministry. Christ in one shows respect to Christ in the other.

Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God” (Ephesians 5:21 KJV).

God leads us through the members of the body who speak the truth in love. When we hear His voice and recognize that Christ is speaking to us through our brothers and sisters, faith comes. And faith brings us to grace so we can do what God asked us to do when He spoke through our brothers and sisters. Then Christ is more fully formed in us since we have allowed the Holy Spirit to plant the Seed of the Word in our hearts.

God reveals doctrine to the apostles in the same ways He gives revelation to any other member. For instance, God may reveal something to the apostles through Scripture, prophecy in a camp meeting or local church meeting, or a quiet inner voice. God delegates the authority and responsibility to the apostles to reveal the vision and direction of the church. God settles this vision when the Holy Spirit confirms it to all the apostles. This way God keeps the church from being pulled in many directions by many conflicting visions. A false vision can do terrible damage and has caused much hardship and division. God delegates the authority and responsibility to the apostles to equip the members of Christ’s body for ministry so the members can build up Christ in each other.

“And He gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ” (Ephesians 4:11-12 KJV).

We can only receive revelation by the power of the Holy Spirit. That’s true whether that revelation is coming through the Bible, a personal vision, a dream, a doctrine taught by an apostolic ministry, or any other means.

We need the Holy Spirit to receive any revelation: to understand the Bible, to know the apostles are apostles, or to recognize any gift, ministry, or office in the church. God has delegated the authority and responsibility to all the members of the body, including elders, deacons, and apostles, to bring Christ’s body to maturity and unity.

“Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge. If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace” (1 Corinthians 14:29-30 KJV).

The following verses show the principle of two or three witnesses:

But if he will not hear thee, then] take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established” (Matthew 18:16 KJV).

“One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established” (Deuteronomy 19:15 KJV).
mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established” (2 Corinthians 13:2b KJV).

For revelation, confirmation is a matter of safety for the church. When God reveals a truth to us, we long for other members of Christ’s body to receive that same revelation and confirm it. It’s exciting to hear someone prophesy the same revelation that was so new to you when you have never told that person about the revelation.

If the Holy Spirit confirms a revelation through many members of the church, we take it more seriously. However, that doesn’t establish the revelation. Revelation isn’t established unless the Holy Spirit confirms the revelation to all the apostles.

“it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit” (Ephesians 3:5b KJV).

“no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.” (1 Corinthians 12:3b KJV).

We have another safeguard when God is leading us, especially concerning revelation that has greater scope than personal leading in your life. There is a principle in Scripture of two or three witnesses for confirmation. However, be careful in this hour. The enemy of our souls is extremely deceptive. Consider the times when all the Old Testament prophets agreed except for one, the one who was actually hearing the word of the Lord.

“How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying” (1 Corinthians 14:26 KJV).

A member may have a revelation during a meeting, but God will confirm any revelation through two or three other members. We need to check our revelation because the fleshly nature is still strong and deceptive. The 29th verse seems to be saying two or three prophets confirm a prophecy. Other Scriptures talk about two or three witnesses.

We long for the day when our hearing God will be so clear there will be no question. What’s the answer? Keep seeking the Lord. Keep walking in obedience to His Spirit. This is where spiritual maturity happens. This is how you gain discernment.

“And when He putteth forth His own sheep, He goeth before them, and the sheep follow Him: for they know His voice. And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.” … “I am the Good Shepherd, and know My sheep, and am known of Mine.” … “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me”  (John 10:3-5, 14, & 27 KJV).

The word translated as “hear” in this passage means to comprehend and understand. If that wasn’t clear enough, Jesus also said His sheep recognize Him. They know Him. They know the difference between Christ’s voice and the voice of their fallen mind or a demon. When you are in church meetings where the body of Christ has the freedom to prophesy, you gain a keen sense to recognize the voice of Christ.

However, all who are born again know His voice. He created us to be constantly in His Presence listening to His voice, and any time we aren’t connected directly to Him, we won’t find happiness. In His Presence, we find fullness of joy, and we can’t find it anywhere else. God’s leading will never conflict with Scripture, and it will flow with the fruit of the Spirit. You’ll sense steadfastness, authority, and the Presence of Christ when He speaks. If a message isn’t from God, you’ll sense a check, dread, or uneasiness.

“But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” (James 1:6-8)

HEARING

Once we finally stop struggling to get faith because we realize faith comes by hearing God’s voice, we start an unnecessary struggle to hear God’s voice. I’ve had different people tell me they never hear God’s voice. I suppose they expect the skies to open with flashes of lightning and God’s booming voice shaking the ground. God is speaking. We need to tune in to Him. Everyone hears God’s voice but few acknowledge Him. He’s the Light Who lights every person, even unbelievers. He shines Light on everyone. Not all acknowledge Him. God speaks through the Bible. He speaks through brothers and sisters in Christ. He can give a vision or dream. When you seek Him, God often speaks through a combination of a quiet inner voice, a feeling, your conscience, or your intuition. As you live your life in His Presence, you know what’s right or wrong. You know what to do. You give the next word of the prophecy as it comes to you. You turn from evil toward what’s right. Demonic voices and fallen minds say you can’t tell the difference between God’s voice and something else, but here’s what God says:

“And when He putteth forth His own sheep, He goeth before them, and the sheep follow Him: for they know His voice. And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.” … “I am the Good Shepherd, and know My sheep, and am known of Mine.” … “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me”  (John 10:3-5, 14, &amp; 27 KJV).

“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1)

Faith is substance. That means faith is reality. It’s not conceptual. It’s real. It’s solid. Whatever God told you to do is concrete, and the vision of hope that comes with faith is also concrete. And faith is also evidence. It’s absolutely certain proof of what God said even though you haven’t seen it yet. There’s no doubt in faith. Faith is unwavering and unmoved by anything that comes against it.
