Confidence in Hearing God:
Something can be accurate and still not be from God. That's the hardest
part of discernment, and it's what we're working through today.
This week we've been talking about prophecy, and a question came in about
something I said on Monday: that accuracy is not the test. Today I explain what I meant, using the slave girl in Acts 16 who said something completely true while serving something demonic. I also share what happened in Maui with a tarot card reader, and something the Lord did at church on Sunday that I haven't talked about yet.
