Good morning,
I Am calling to the forefront My true prophets, those who will speak My heart and My word truly. They are not moved by the seasons, whether things are good or bad, whether the opportunity seems favorable or unfavorable. They are preachers of My Word, rebuking, correcting, warning, urging, and encouraging the lost. They are not moved by whether they are received with joy or cast aside. They are on a mission for the Kingdom. They do not preach a message for those who have itching ears; they are not trying to gain the approval of man, their desire is to only please Me. This group of holy prophets has come from My presence, from being totally immersed in Me and dedicated to My purpose alone. They will not say what is popular, but what is profitable for the Kingdom. Many voices are saying only what they hear others saying and have not sought My counsel. I Am persistently sending you My prophets, so hear the ones that I Am placing in your midst. In order to hear and obey the true prophets with
My Word, you must be able to discern between the true and the false, between the wheat and the tare. The only way for you to hear and know is for you to decide to know Me, in and through My Word. I have revealed Myself to you in My Word. For you to make a proper shift and change and be in My time, you can not be slothful or ignorant, because of deception. Now is the time for you to understand that My purpose and plans for you are unchangeable, but I need you to line yourself up with Me. It is through faith and patience that you inherit the promises. I and My Word, We are One. Listen to the ones that come with My Word.
Read with me the message in Jeremiah 23:9 &11; “Concerning the prophets: My heart is broken within me, all my bones shaken; I am like a drunken man, a man whom wine has overcome, because of the Lord and because of His holy Words…..For both [false] prophets and priest are ungodly and profane; even in My house have I found their wickedness, says the Lord. “Verses 16-18; “Thus says the Lord of Hosts; Do not listen to the words of the [false] prophets who prophesy to you. They teach you vanity (emptiness, falsity and futility) and fill you with vain hopes; they speak a vision of their own minds and not from the mouth of the Lord. They are continually saying to those who despise Me and the Word of the Lord, the Lord has said: You shall have peace; and they say to everyone who walks after the stubbornness of his own mind and heart, No evil shall come upon you. For who among them has stood in the council of the Lord, that he should perceive and hear His Word? Who has marked His Word [noticing and observing and giving attention to it] and has actually heard it?” Verses 21-22: “I did not send these [false] prophets, yet they ran; I did not speak to them, yet they prophesied. But if they had stood in My council, then they would have caused My people to hear My Words, then they would have turned them [My people]from their evil way and from the evil of their doings.”
God makes a distinction between the true and the false prophets, and we must also discern. True prophets are always directing God’s people toward holy character and conduct. Making “soul prosperity” the main goal. “Beloved, I wish above all things that you may prosper and be in health, even [like unto; to the same degree] as your soul prosper.” (3 John verse 2) Read the rest of Jeremiah chapter 23. “Is not My Word like fire [that consumes all that endure the test]? says the Lord, and like a hammer that breaks in pieces the rock [of most stubborn resistance]? Therefore behold, I Am against the [false] prophets, says the Lord, [I Am even now descending upon them with punishment, these prophets] who steal My Words from one another [imitating the phrases of the true prophets]. Behold I Am against the prophets, says the Lord, who use their [own deceitful] tongues and say, Thus says the Lord.”
All of us are prophets in the small sense of the word, and we need to speak the unadulterated Word of God. We must meditate on the promises and stay true to God’s Word. The Bible says that in the last days, many false prophets shall arise. We must be wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. Know the true and living God and develop ears to hear!
Love,
Pastor D.
