PROOFS FOR PROPHECIES AND REVELATIONS FRIDAY MARCH 17
TEXT: 1 THESSALONIANS 5:19-21
Key verse: “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world” 1 John 4:1.
Because of the possibilities of errors in prophetic revelations, all manifestations through such means must pass scriptural tests before they can be received. The following are the scriptural tests that authenticate a prophetic revelation to be the word of God:
(a) It must be true, honest, just, pure, lovely, of good report, virtuous and praise worthy. Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
(b) It must be consistent with the message and truth of the whole scripture. Isaiah 8:20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.
(c) The prophetic revelation, the circumstance of the revelation, the life of the person giving the revelation message and previous revelation messages given by him, if any, must be carefully investigated to know whether the message is from God or not. 1 Corinthians 14:29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.
(d) The message must not be contrary to any portion of the scripture.2 Peter 1:20Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 1 Corinthians 14:3 But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.
When the message of Divine revelation or prophetic utterance has been proved to be from God, we are to receive it as the word of God to us to whom it is directed. We should believe it, obey it and act on it for our good.
Thought for the day: Revelations must be consistent with the message and truth of the whole scripture.
Song for the day: You are worthy to be praised (x2), my Redeemer, You are worthy to be praised.
Bible reading for the day: Deuteronomy 29-30; Mark 16

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...
