There are more bad prophecies than good

Just because there are multiple confirmations on a event or word does not mean they are from God. Just because there may be many professing prophets or servants of God with the same word, vision, or dream does not make it valid or true from God.

Before Ahab and Jehoshaphat went to war against Syria (1 Kings 22), all the prophets about 400 told the king a false prophecy that he would have victory. But there was only one prophet, Micaiah, who was being held in prison that was the true prophet and spoke Truth. All true prophets will be persecuted. Micaiah had said that a lying spirit was in the mouths of the 400 prophets.

Elijah was only one man against 450 false prophets of Baal and 400 false prophets of Asherah. Jeremiah was in the minority. The other false prophets were sending comfort messages of peace when Jeremiah was telling them to repent and surrender to Babylon. Jeremiah's message was hard to swallow and accept. John the Baptist was one man against a system or institution of vipers who were basically God's people who were corrupted. They had lost their ways into religion. And Jesus had said I have come for the lost sheep of Israel. Most His people were lost!!

Even today, the pattern is the same. The false messages will be of comfort and an easy way out. The hard true message will be rejected by the majority as there will be a majority of false prophets who will lead people to destruction into the wide road.

Today is no different. He is returning and most of His sheep are lost as many have been deceived. Rather than chasing HIM and rather than praying to receive the Holy Spirit and Power to be His witnesses unto the nations, their eyes are on events and the storms of life. They asked HIM when He would overthrow the Romans to establish His Kingdom. They wanted him to get involved in their politics. But His Will was for them to pray and receive the power of the Holy Spirit so they may do His Will and work.

Are we really waiting for His Return? What is that definition? What is to believe? What is faith? Is it just to acknowledge God exist? What is our proof that we believe? If we are the children of the MOST HIGH, how are we to be manifested in this world? Is it just to post "I love God" on Facebook? How should we be growing in HIM? Is getting a job promotion proof we are His? Is just going to church once a week proof we are His? Is praying over a meal proof we are His? Is chasing after signs and prophecy of the end of the world proof we are His?

John 14:12 (AMP) I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, if anyone steadfastly believes in Me, he will himself be able to do the things that I do; and he will do even greater things than these, because I go to the Father.

The KEY word in the above verse is "steadfastly." In other versions, it may use the word "continue." The word says if we steadfastly or continue to believe in HIM. In other words, if we continue to grow, following, trusting, and believing in HIM, then we will do the things that HE did!!! Are we doing the things He did during His ministry? Yes, many have not reached the greater works but have we at least reached the first level to do what HE DID?

Mark 16:17-19 (AMP)  And these attesting signs will accompany those who believe: in My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new languages;18 They will pick up serpents; and [even] if they drink anything deadly, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will get well.19 So then the Lord Jesus, after He had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven and He sat down at the right hand of God.

And the signs will ACCOMPANY THOSE WHO BELIEVE! Beside looking for signs all over the world for the end, what signs are you manifesting? Do you not know brethren? As His people, we are to be His signs and wonders to shine brightly from the darkness of the world.

Isaiah 8:18 (AMP) Behold, I and the children whom the Lord has given me are [a]signs and wonders [that are to take place] in Israel from the Lord of hosts, Who dwells on Mount Zion.

When many of the false prophecies and event do not turn out and are proven false, when will we stop to repent and start focusing on Jesus rather than the news of the world.

Acts 1:11 (AMP) Who said, Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing into heaven? This same Jesus, Who was caught away and lifted up from among you into heaven, will return in [just] the same way in which you saw Him go into heaven.

The angel told the men of Galilee that Jesus will return the same way they saw HIM go into heaven. They were looking directly at Jesus. But if your eyes are on events and signs, then you will miss HIM.

Luke 17:20 (AMP) Asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He replied to them by saying, The kingdom of God does not come with signs to be observed or with visible display,

Yes, the signs are there in the world to let us know we may be in the time and season. And, yes, His return is imminent. But His return has been imminent since He had first left. When He left, He commanded us to receive the Power of the Holy Spirit and be His witnesses. His command was not to spiritually pack up our bags and just wait. We are to be working in the field so that we will not be taken by surprise.

One day, everything will turn upside down. But will we be ready with His Power to do the greater works and for the end time harvest? Or will be spiritually packed with our bags and sleeping?

History has proven the majority has ALWAYS been wrong. Ask God for His wisdom and His strength to stay in prayer so that you may not fall asleep or deceived when He returns. You are all called to be His soldiers of the Cross. This means we are to be ready. You are not called to seek a easy way out on to vacation.

May He lead all of us to His Truth during these end times. I see so many falling away into deception. Even the mature ones are falling away into deception. Lord have mercy on your people!!!
