Prophesy..and it's other message

[stillfocused]

Sadly, there are many out there who are there for the profits.. I didn't hear about Bishop until I got saved it and I picked up a copy of Charisma and he was having a conference.

GDD..what are some of the signs that indicate that a true prophet is headed in the wrong direction ? We get alot of teaching of what to look for in a prophet..yet, there is very little out there on what to do when they start falling into deception. Are there any signs or does it happen overnight ?

The answers to your questions are found in scripture,
What Determines True Prophecy

Deuteronomy 13:1-5; “If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign and a wonder, and the sign and wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them; thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, for THE LORD your GOD proveth you, to know whether ye LOVE THE LORD thy GOD with all your heart and with all your soul. Ye shall walk after THE LORD your GOD, and Fear HIM, and keep HIS Commandments, and Obey HIS Voice, and ye shall Serve HIM, and Cleave to HIM. And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from THE LORD your GOD, which brought you out of the land of Eygpt, and Redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to thrust thee out of the way which THE LORD thy GOD Commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put evil away from the midst of thee.”

Deuteronomy 18:18-22; “I will raise them up a PROPHET from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put MY WORDS into HIS MOUTH; and HE shall speak unto them all that I shall Command HIM. and it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto MY WORDS which HE shall speak in MY NAME, I will require it of him. But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in MY NAME, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die. And if thou say in thy heart, How shall we know the word which THE LORD hath not spoken? When a prophet speaketh in The NAME of THE LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which THE LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not fear him.”

Matthew 7:15-20; “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in the sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.”

I John 4:1-6; “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of GOD: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye THE SPIRIT OF GOD: every spirit that confesseth that JESUS CHRIST is come in the flesh is of GOD: and every spirit that confesseth not that JESUS CHRIST is come in the flesh is not of GOD: and this is the spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. Ye are of GOD, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is HE that is in you, than he that is in the world. They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. We are of GOD: he that knoweth GOD heareth us; he that is not of GOD heareth not us. Hereby know we THE SPIRIT of Truth, and the spirit of error.”

I Corinthians 12:3; “Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by THE SPIRIT OF GOD calleth JESUS accursed: and that no man can say that JESUS is THE LORD, but by THE HOLY GHOST.”

I think when you use a legitimate gift for personal gain, that's a pretty clear sign that you're headed in the wrong direction.

Ok but if we are talking about TRUE prophecy prophecy doesnt come by the will of the speaker it comes by the will of GOD, so then how can we determine what GOD will speak and when and about what.

Amen Giant, that is so true, God as all the control.....
