Pursue love and be eager for the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy (NET).
1 Cor. 14:1
What do you do with a word received?
Test all prophecy you receive (see 1 Thess 5:19-21)
- It should be consistent with Scripture
- Is should edify and encourage and be given in love
- Its purpose should be to bring the receiver closer to Jesus
- It shouldn’t be biased to the giver’s mindset or desires
For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. (NET)
1 Cor. 13:9
