August 12 Jeremiah 23:9-40 Beware You "Prophet"

Teaching the Word of God is serious stuff. Giving spiritual advice is an awesome responsibility. Sharing a "word" or "prophecy" from God is not something that should be tossed around lightly. When we speak with the authority of God, people tend to listen with greater interest. We had better make sure that we are leading people toward God - toward His will - and not away. Be careful when you appear to speak for God. He will hold you and me accountable.
