When I hear believers warning other believers to "be careful" I say; "trust the Holy Spirit, when we do this we need not worry, He tells us what we need when we need it, no need to worry about our response.
Mark 13:11 "And when they arrest you and hand you over, do not worry beforehand about what you are to say, but say whatever is given you at that time; for you are not the ones speaking, but it is the Holy Spirit."
Philippians 1:9-10
“And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ.”
We don't have to figure out what to say or worry about what is truth, Christ in us gives us all the tools to know when we need it.
1 Corinthians 2:14
“The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit.”
Hebrews 5:14
“But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.”
James 1:5
“If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.”
When we try to figure things out on our own to be prepared we are not trusting the Holy Spirit. The best and only preparation for everything is knowing the Scriptures and seeking Christ.
Proverbs 2:3-5
“Indeed, if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure, then you will understand the fear of the LORD and find the knowledge of God.”
