We are being charged to walk out the words given to us.
We are being charged to walk out the words given to us.
Is prophesy a road map in our lives?
Is what Jesus says you are a road map for your life?
18 “I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it.
Jesus calls Simon who he truly is Peter.
Jesus prophesied who he was.
28 But He said, “On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God and observe it.”
When you get a prophecy or God speaks to you, we have a charge to hear it and continue to observe what it means.
When Joseph had a dream about all his brothers and even his father bowing to him, he told to his family.
Isreal, Joseph’s dad, had some strong words with his son about his arrogance.
It says that Isreal took that dream and pondered it.
Its like he put it on a shelf to see what would come of that dream.
I have a feeling that when all his sons came back to their father and told them that Joseph was a alive. I think Isreal pictured all of them bowed to their brother, and he remembered that dream Joseph had.
When you look back at what God has said to you and what has come of those words, what do you see?
Sometimes I look back and I realize if I had just trusted what He said about trusting Him or what He said about me, all that worry I experienced was unnecessary.
My path would have been much straighter if I would have just trusted what He said.
21 But He answered and said to them, “My mother and My brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.”
When we get a prophecy or God speaks to you we have a charge to act on that word.
We become His family when we act on the words we hear from Jesus.
God speaks and life happens.
We need to see what Father is speaking over us for what it is.
He is revealing to you who He is.
He is calling out who we are.
His word is living and shaping.
His word will unfold many times in our lives in ways that we did not think about before.
23 But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me; for you are not setting your mind on God’s interests, but man’s.”
Peter was just called by his new name right before this.
Jesus knew that Peter needed to know who He was in his life.
Peter also needed reminded of why Jesus was there.
When you are given a word or prophecy it is because you need reminded of who Jesus is or you will need to purposely remind yourself of who He is.
When you are given a word or prophecy it is because you need reminded of who you are or you will need to purposely remind yourself of who you are.
We are to take those words and observe them and let them unfold over and over again.
A key to doing this is to hold very loosely how it will happen and when it will happen.
Last we become the family of God when we act on those words given to us.
Closing:
What was the last thing Jesus told you?
Who was He trying to get you to see He is?
Who was He trying to get you to see you are?
How are you going to remind yourself of these things?
What step are you going to take now because of what He told you?

4 When a large crowd was coming together, and those from the various cities were journeying to Him, He spoke by way of a parable: 5 “The sower went out to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some fell beside the road, and it was trampled under foot and the birds of the air ate it up. 6 “Other seed fell on rocky soil, and as soon as it grew up, it withered away, because it had no moisture. 7 “Other seed fell among the thorns; and the thorns grew up with it and choked it out. 8 “Other seed fell into the good soil, and grew up, and produced a crop a hundred times as great.” As He said these things, He would call out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.” 9 His disciples began questioning Him as to what this parable meant. 10 And He said, “To you it has been granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God, but to the rest it is in parables, so that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand. 11 “Now the parable is this: the seed is the word of God. 12 “Those beside the road are those who have heard; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, so that they will not believe and be saved. 13 “Those on the rocky soil are those who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no firm root; they believe for a while, and in time of temptation fall away. 14 “The seed which fell among the thorns, these are the ones who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with worries and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to maturity. 15 “But the seed in the good soil, these are the ones who have heard the word in an honest and good heart, and hold it fast, and bear fruit with perseverance.
16 “Now no one after lighting a lamp covers it over with a container, or puts it under a bed; but he puts it on a lampstand, so that those who come in may see the light. 17 “For nothing is hidden that will not become evident, nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light. 18 “So take care how you listen; for whoever has, to him more shall be given; and whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has shall be taken away from him.” 19 And His mother and brothers came to Him, and they were unable to get to Him because of the crowd. 20 And it was reported to Him, “Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, wishing to see You.” 21 But He answered and said to them, “My mother and My brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.”
13 Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, He was asking His disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?” 14 And they said, “Some say John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; but still others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.” 15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 And Jesus said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Barjona, because flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. 18 “I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it. 19 “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven.” 20 Then He warned the disciples that they should tell no one that He was the Christ.
