How to Process False Prophecies

False prophecies bring damage, loss of faith in God and the rejection of the prophetic. And recently, many have been getting it wrong. How is the church supposed to respond, and why has God allowed it?

In the USA, President Trump was ousted by Joe Biden. Yet a number of prophets across the world prophesied a different outcome, even calling the church to have faith and believe for a miracle, despite evidence to the contrary. And as far as we are aware, no prophets prophesied COVID-19, yet it arrived and has caused havoc around the world.

What has resulted is wary and resistant hearts, and a lot of questions from believers surrounding the prophetic. Questions like can we still trust the prophetic? Is God trying to tell us something? Is there a problem with the prophetic? Where do we go from here?

In this clip, Andrew Selley shares on how we can navigate these times of prophecy and process our hearts. He cautions us not to put out the Spirit’s fire. In addition, he looks at the lessons we can learn from so many getting it wrong, why this happened, and what God is doing as He shakes the church. He appeals to us to stop loving the world and be separate from it, encouraging us instead to seek first the Kingdom of God, preach the Good News to all, obey the call of Jesus, and love Him with everything inside of us.
