19 This makes us more sure about the message the prophets gave. And it is good for you to follow closely what they said. Their message is like a light shining in a dark place. That light shines until the day begins and the morning star rises in your hearts.

20 Most of all, you must understand this: No prophecy in the Scriptures ever comes from the prophet’s own interpretation.

21 No prophecy ever came from what a man wanted to say. But men led by the Holy Spirit spoke words from God.
