Shalom! There is another kind of rhema that God gives that is similar to that which I spoke about in my last posting. They both manifests the same way. One is derived from the Word of God under study, and the other comes directly from the Holy Spirit.
The work of a Bible teacher is similar to what the Holy Spirit does in opening up the Word. Jesus said that the Holy Spirit will teach you all things. He is able to reveal a truth to you in a second which can take you a whole week to put down in your notebook.
There is a rhema the Holy Spirit gives that does not depend on the knowledge of the Word, it just reveals to you what God wants you to know.
For instance, if you desire to know how God speaks and guide His people, then spend some time meditating on His Word, (familiarise yourself with it), and when the rhema starts coming you would have recognised how He guides through inward revelation in your heart - the same way revelation of the Word comes.
If you follow after it with all seriousness, you never can tell how far the Holy Spirit will take you and reveal things to you.
God spoke to us through King Solomon:
Proverbs 4: 20-22
20 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.
21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.
22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
You need to give God's Word priority in your life. Before prayer, the Word should come first. Then other things will fall into place.
Till next time, God bless.
