“There are two extremes in this and both of them are just that, extremes. There are men over here who have no knowledge of the Word whatsoever and they claim to be led of the Spirit. And the spirit that is leading them contradicts the Word. We know that is false.
But then there are men who say, “We will have nothing of that.” And everything is just a proposition and a figuring out and correct exegesis and that is all. And the know nothing of being led and directed by the Spirit of God who will sometimes make men do unusual things to accomplish his end, never things that contradict Scripture, but nonetheless unusual things.
We must be in the Word and grounded in the Word. We must also cry out for the Spirit to reveal God’s will through his Word, but we must be sensitive in all things to follow Him, not only to start our journey into the wilderness, but to be led throughout the wilderness by the power of the Holy Spirit.”
- Excerpt from Paul Washer‘s Sermon, “Pray And Be Alone With God”
