Have you ever wondered why some Christians are drawn to buying prophecies? The answer reveals a deeper spiritual struggle many believers face today.
When we lack a clear understanding of our identity in Christ, we develop what I call a "gap" or "hole in our soul" that we desperately try to fill. This emptiness drives many to seek quick spiritual fixes—even to the point of purchasing prophetic words that make them momentarily feel special or chosen. But as I explore in this episode, Scripture clearly teaches that God's gifts cannot be bought or manipulated.
Looking at biblical examples like Simon the sorcerer in Acts 8 who tried to buy the Holy Spirit, and King Saul who sought a word through divination after Samuel's death, we see God's consistent position: prophecy is a gift, not a product. The beautiful truth is that God has already given us access to His word through Scripture. When we prioritize God's Word, we receive both practical strategies and spiritual enlightenment that address our deepest needs.
This episode challenges you to conduct a spiritual assessment—evaluating where you stand with God and how He sees you. This "faithwork" helps you understand God's perspective in your life and leads to genuine fulfillment as you prioritize Him and discover your true identity in Christ.
