Subject: Prophets of God. you will be tested by other's attitudes

Prophets of God, you will be tested by other's attitudes [and perhaps actions] against the word which you have given in the order of correction, for there are those who will not receive, there are those who will think [say] to themselves that it is not them, because they do not know what is truly in their hearts [and minds] because only God can see that deep into the heart. But it will manifest what is in their hearts, usually against the word which is given in the order of correction, to withstand that word. So, don't take it to heart that it is against you, but, it is against the Word.
You can be an object of their attitude against you since you will and do represent the Word. Things can be said or done against you; there can be spiritual warfare to rise up against you because of the Word -- don't take it out against the person(s), but pray for them, and if there are any unclean spirits at work there, then speak forth against those things. The attitudes of the person can be felt at times with the gift of discerning of spirits. That gift is used for our protection so that we know what spirit is at work there, also, to know what is coming against us and what to pray. It is never a prayer against the person, unless the Lord so directs as He had done through David. That's why we are to be Spirit led, so that we will know what to do. Also, know the Word for it is your Light, and know the Holy Spirit for He will guide you into all Truth [He is the Spirit of Truth].
Don't worry about the words that they use by the scripture. Even satan uses the scripture. Satan is cleaver and is a deceiver, that's why we must keep our hearts and minds on the Truth and on the Word, and be receptive to His correction/discipline. Even Christians can be deceived. {See Peter when he rebuked Jesus about His death to come. Jesus rebuked satan, and also had a word for Peter.) It does not mean that they belong to satan, but, it's just that they were being used by him because they did not understand the Lord's ways. Peter walked with Jesus, and even he listened to the wrong voice. 'Well, how will we know the difference?' Stay in the Word; pray; know the Lord and His voice; know the Holy Spirit and His voice. There are testings along the way so as to know Him truly. Know the difference between your voice and the Spirit's. We even talk to ourselves sounding spiritual, but, there is a difference there if one is willing to truly listen to the tone and to test and see if it is of the Spirit. The Word says to test the spirits to see whether they be of God or not. Our voice of the flesh can use the scripture to lead us astray. We have a fallen nature and it still works sometimes. We have to remain in Him so that we live in Christ and choose Life. It's all a learning process taken over time.
"Do not resist Him this day. He will show you much if you do not give heed to seducing spirits." That is His word to you.
