False Prophecy vs True Prophecy

False Prophecy vs True Prophecy

 

Jeremiah 19:14-20:6

 

When Jeremiah returned from Topheth, he said to all the people in the courtyard of the house of the LORD, "I will bring on this city and its villages all the plagues that God has declared against this city, because these people have stiffened their necks and will not listen to me." Priest Pashhur, the overseer of the temple of the Lord, heard Jeremiah's prophecy and put Jeremiah in a stockade. The next day, Jeremiah calls Pashhur Magormisabib (fear in all directions). For the Lord will make you a fear to all your friends, and I will give all Judah into the hands of Babylon, and you and all your family and friends will be taken captive, and there you will die and be buried there because of your false prophecies.

 

God judges the proud and disobedient people of Judah. Because they heard the false prophecies of Pashhur. We must humbly obey the Word of God. We must discern false prophecies from true prophecies, and listen to and obey the correct word of God.

 

Jeremiah faces difficulties while preaching the word of God. However, he preaches the word of God to the end. Even though we may experience difficulties while preaching the word of God, we must trust in God and preach the word of God to the end.

 

God, help us discern false prophecies from true prophecies and humbly obey Your Word! Even if we encounter difficulties while preaching the Word of God, help us not to lose heart and trust in You to spread Your Word to the end!
