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

UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...
