“I spoke to the prophets and
gave them many visions. I taught lessons through the prophets ... The
Lord used a prophet to bring the people of Israel out of Egypt. He used
the prophet to take care of them” (Hosea 12:10,13). The ministry of the
prophets was very important. It doesn’t begin with speaking to men. It
begins with hearing from God. The question, “What does the Lord have to
say to me?” comes before the question, “What will I say to the people?”
When we listen to what the Lord is saying to us, we will have “power
with God” (Hosea 12:3) - power to speak His Word in a way that will
bring glory to Him and people to Him.
