On the 2nd of January 2025, I woke with the word DOGMA being spoken to me directly by the Holy Spirit.
The Oxford dictionary describes dogma, as a principle or set of principles laid down by an authority as incontrovertibly true (in a way that is impossible to deny). As in, “The dogmas of faith.”
For us as believers in Christ, this authority is the Lord Jesus Christ as set out in the Scriptures.
The Cambridge dictionary describes dogma, as beliefs that people are expected to adhere to without any doubts. To which the Lord replied, Amen! Amen! Amen!
Another definition, describes dogma, as a belief communicated by divine revelation. The Lord then instructed me, “This is a principle for you to adhere to.”
When we know it is the Lord Who is speaking to us, we can be confident to obey all of His commands. He is faithful to do exactly what He has promised He will do, when our response to Him is obedience. Furthermore, the Lord says, “This is exactly what I am about to do.”
“I am the Lord, that is My name; And My glory I will not give to another, nor My praise to carved images. Behold, the former things have come to pass, and new things I declare. Before they spring forth I tell you of them.” Isaiah 42:8 & 9.
