John 16, 13, it says, but when he, the spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth.

He will not speak on his own.

He will speak of only what he hears and he will tell you what is yet to come.

The Holy Spirit will never contradict the word that he inspired.

Test everything.

Test everything.

Test every spirit.

I don't care if you listen to your favorite pastor, if it's your favorite podcast, or even someone like me.

Every type of doctrine that hits your eyes and ears, test it by the word of God.

Because the Holy Spirit operates everything.

Not in contradiction of his word, but in alignment to it.

And a lot of the times people will prophesy and preach and say things outside of what God is actually saying and say that it's Holy spirit driven, but it's actually not.

It's just passion.

It's just passion.

So you know that you're led by the spirit.

when the spirit is always constantly walking with God's word.

And you know that you're not led by the spirit when you're speaking from a place of passion that's not backed up by theology or scripture.

It's just meaningless.

It's just a lot of passion and married with illiteracy.

So you know that you're walking by the spirit when you're biblically literate and you're able to see that scripture aligns with the spirit of God, right?
