Growing In The Word of Knowledge
"Words of knowledge are going to take tons of practice. Sometimes it seems as if people think I just sovereignly hear God and bypass my twenty-plus years of practice, thinking they can just jump into the gift... you will have to commit to faith and a relationship-building process..."
"Some people also think I was just anointed or imparted to by someone and that I just let their gifting rub off on me and now it's all good and easy. That's not at all the case." - Shawn Bolz, probably the man with the sharpest and most detailed Word of knowledge in our generation
I can understand what he meant, because it took me a season of stepping out in faith and practising to reach where I am now. And there is so much more to grow into. In the process, you have to lose your reputation; let people think you are crazy; be a fool; overcome insecurities; etc. The fastest way to grow is Galatians 2:20.
Love this guy who pursues identity. Stop looking to impartation and gifting. Start looking to Christ in you, the hope of glory.
