Isaiah 30 8-11

“Every word I would say ever spoken is a form of prophecy. The question is, it true prophecy or is it false prophecy? Now obviously my definition of prophecy here is one about speaking on behalf of God not predicting things that we often think of. That was one of the aspects of a prophets rule. The major aspect was the ability to speak to the people what God wanted them to do, and that was often talkable in your heart change. Let me read a New Testament verse to you to back up when I'm saying. First Peter 4-11, if anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God. How's that for a heavy one on you? Be careful how you respond. You better respond like God. Any word that you say, you have to speak as if you were speaking the very words of God. That's heavy. You're probably thinking, would God have said that? Sometimes God uses whatever means necessary to get his message across. So if you do anything in this life, it's not just prophecy, if you do anything in this life, it has to be related to God. You have to do it for God. This is a New Testament principle. Every time you say a single word, God wants to be a part of that sentence.”
— Rev. Dr. Cyril Guerette, "Isaiah 30 8-11"
