Bible Answer: Hello babydoll, Searcher appears to be making a very important point. Your friend asked "why would God use you?" This is a lagitimate question and there may very well be a lagitimate answer. Unless this question is answered your friend may not even hear you. The other important thing that I believe Searcher seems to be wanting you to make clear to yourself is, is it really the Lord you are hearing from. All sorts of factors may effect your perception regarding another and a particular issue and, even where you might be right on something and feel strongly about it, it doesn't necessarily mean that it is your place or that you are called to intervene. I believe that Searcher may have been wanting you to think through this. If your "word" involves a change of course in the church or a particular ministry why would God call you instead of the pastor who has been called to shepherd the church? Lagitimate question. If you are referring to a rebuke, the bible clearly sets a standard for how this should be carried out. See Matthew 18: 16-17. Always obey the Lord, and always know that it is the Lord who guides you. Jeff |
