In this episode of the Voice of God, Joseph Z enlightens us about false prophets, pointing us toward recognizing the true prophets of God. He leads us to the Book of Matthew 24:11 to highlight the existence of false prophets and their role in derailing us from the call of God in our lives. He explains that real prophets are gospel-driven, teachable, generous, and submitted to authority. On the other hand, false prophets are self-focused, greedy, possess a hidden agenda, and claim to have a special revelation.

Next, Joseph cites the Book of 1 Timothy 3:6 to elaborate on novices in the prophetic. These are those who do not know but are unaware of their ignorance; their grey area is the valley of decision. They are also more concerned about their gifts than training themselves to become who God has called them to be. He clarifies that false prophets can travel into darkness in stages, depending on their level of pride and self-deception. However, he points out that novices in the prophetic can still be redirected through rebuke if they heed the advice, or plunge into the reprobate zone if they ignore the rebuke.
Additionally, Joseph references the Books of 2 Peter 2:1-3 and 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 to reveal the ways of false prophets, and how to overcome them. He further explains that knowledge of the truth will set us free from the deceptive ways of false prophets, for when we’re lovers of the truth, we’re lovers of Jesus. Interestingly, the Book of Revelation 19:10 dispels all doubts about what prophecy is, for it reveals that the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy. That is to say, true prophecy is geared toward bringing us closer to Jesus and not farther from him. The video: https://youtube.com/live/uzYsD5-ctPE
