A Word For Wednesday How To Spot A False Prophet

It is time for A Word For Wednesday. A Few minutes ago, I posted A Word for Wednesday on our YouTube Channel. Please give it a listen and leave us a comment here or on YouTube.

How To Spot A False Prophet

We must not be deceived by false prophets in these last days.

Jesus said,

Matthew 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

How will we know false prophets? Amazingly, God already anticipated that question and answered the question for us too.

Deuteronomy 18:21 And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD hath not spoken?

How do we know if the Lord is speaking through this man or not?

The man says the Lord is speaking through him, but how do we know?

Here is the answer

22 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 be afraid of him.

If he preaches and prophesies and what he says does not come to pass he is not a prophet from God.

But

That is not the only guideline. God also gave us guidance for hearing a prophet who prophesies and it does come to pass.

Deuteronomy 13:1 If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder,

2 And the sign or the 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;

3 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 your God with all your heart and with all your soul.

If his predictions come to pass YET he preaches or teaches doctrine contrary to God and God’s Word, he is a false prophet!

Saints, we must be careful. We can not afford to be deceived by false prophets.

Thank you for reading today.

Selfless And Kind

We have been blessed for many years by the GoodNews Christian School in Abeokuta, Ogun State, Nigeria. I think it was 2009 when Bro. Shobanke shared with me his vision to begin a Christian school. He had wanted to do it for years and at that point, his daughters were educated properly to run the school. It was time.

In that first conversation about starting the school, I pledged at least $1000 from Boggs Family Ministries each year for three years. By God's grace, the kindness of God's people and through our personal and ministry commitment to missions, we have been able to give many thousands through the years to GoodNews Christian School.

We have helped build buildings and provide supplies and we have tried each year to supplement the salaries of Bro. Shobanke's daughters, Ruth and Rebecca and Ruth's husband Samuel. These three are in charge of the school now.

Several churches, individuals and family members have helped Boggs Family Ministries with these school commitments and we are extremely thankful for that. 

In the last three years, we have received help from an unexpected source. Ellisville First Assembly Academy in Ellisville, Mississippi has been sending a sizable and sacrificial offering to support GoodNews Christian School in Nigeria. 

I am sure they do not have a huge budget and are dependant on donations for a portion of their budget, yet they see the value and even necessity of helping another school. I love that! What an amazing act of selflessness and love.

Pastor Andy Stringfellow works under Pastor Kenny Morris and has been running the school along with his wife, Sis. Tina Stringfellow and their loyal staff for many years. I am positive they could use every single dollar they can get to operate the school, yet they have a heart to help a school in Nigeria. God bless them!

I have thanked them over and over, but yesterday I received emails with pictures and videos of the school children thanking the staff and students of Ellisville First Assembly Academy for their support.

May God bless you, friends. I want to see all of them face to face soon!
