And the Lord appeared again in Shiloh: for the Lord revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the Lord. – 1 Samuel 3:21
Beloved, nominal churchgoers globally are snared by an avoidable canker worm.
This is because of their preference for prophetic words of one great man or woman of God and not living by the entire word of God in the Bible, as commanded by our Lord Jesus Christ.
Matthew 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
What these people failed to understand and appreciate is the fact that, God”s entire words in the Bible are more sure words of prophecy that can guarantee their earthly and eternal well-being.

Please my dearly beloved, don’t fall a victim of this avoidable delusion.
2Pe 1:19 — 2Pe 1:21 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
This sure word of prophecy was the means through which God reveals Himself to Samuel for his personal edification and acceptable holy service to the whole nation of Israel.
1Sa 3:19 — 1Sa 3:21 And Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground. And all Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel was established to be a prophet of the Lord. And the Lord appeared again in Shiloh: for the Lord revealed himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the Lord.

And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
But then, beloved there is a very important proviso that is a compulsion for you. You are not permitted under any circumstances to add or remove anything from the word of God in the Bible. Regrettable eternal consequence is the portion of anyone who does so. Thank God that can not be your portion, because you will not do so.
