John 5:30 ... I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and
my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of
the Father which hath sent me.
Exhortation: (Joan Boney ... apostle/prophet)
The first time I heard this scripture I was astounded. Jesus could do nothing except when he heard from God the Father.
Certainly I can do nothing unless I heard from God the Father.
So God used this to teach me to wait until I heard from God before speaking and to be sure it was God by testing that which I heard through prayer and through Bible study.
