Prophecies That God Has Given to His Prophet, Thomas S. Gibson, In the 20th Century
(From the 1970s to December 31, 2000)
2000 12 13.3
For thus says the Lord, look not to the left nor to the right, but spend time on your knees before Me seeking direction from the Spirit that dwells within you––the Holy One of God. Listen to that Holy Spirit within you. Follow that Spirit, for He will lead you in truth.
Read the Word daily. Read and study the Word. Study the life of Jesus. Study the life in the New Testament. Study, study, study! Know the Bible. Know it is My Word. And know that it is there to guide and strengthen you and teach you.
There are many who have raised up ministries; built them on precept, and not on My Word. Many called, that were not called––called themselves, but I did not call them. Those ministries fall through in time.
But some of My ministries go through fire––like never before. What is of that ministry that is of God, shall come through in strength. As gold is refined in the fire so it is refined. Those ministries who have parts of them that are not right will get the fire burning those things out. And therefore, the impurities leave; and what is left is a strengthened ministry.
Those ministries who are not built of Me, when the fire comes it utterly destroys. Don’t judge a ministry without My Word. Look to see what the fire does. For all My ministries will come under fire: and that that they built in the flesh shall be burned away; and that that they built on the Spirit of the Living God shall stand in power and strength.
Some ministries are going to be surprised, in this day and age as I go through and purify My ministries––how much of their own ministry was built on flesh!
But you see, this is good. As I burn the flesh out I’ll be left with a ministry that stands on the healing and holy and mighty power of the Living God.
Those ministries are the ones that shall lead My church in the coming years! They are the ones that shall stand up strong, not an ounce of flesh left, but the power of the Holy Spirit shall flow!
So the flesh speaks in ministry, but it hinders the power of the Holy Spirit in their work. When the flesh is burned out, the power of the Holy Spirit can flow freely and thoroughly and fully!
