Be wary of prophets

 

Those of us who run madly after prophets of all shades and hues need to realize that there is no certainty that whatever the prophets say is inspired by the Spirit of God. The strange story of a man of God getting deceived by an old prophet in the name of God makes it clear that prophets can lie.

It is a big test when you are confronted with falsehood in God’s name. Do we have the strength of conviction about what God has spoken to us personally and impressed on our heart?

What has God told you?
