   PROPHECY AGAINST FALSE PROPHETS 

By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi 

     Throughout Scripture, the warning against false prophets is a recurring theme. In Ezekiel 13:2, God commands the prophet to speak against those who falsely claim to deliver His messages, saying, "Prophesy against the prophets of Israel who are now prophesying. Say to those who prophesy out of their own imagination: ‘Hear the word of the Lord!’” These false prophets led the people astray, promising peace when destruction was imminent (Ezekiel 13:10).

In Ezekiel 11:4, God again commands Ezekiel to speak against deceitful leaders, who spread lies and mislead Israel. Isaiah 1:23 further denounces corrupt leaders, stating, “Your rulers are rebels, partners with thieves; they all love bribes and chase after gifts."

Acts 13:6-12 tells of Paul’s confrontation with Elymas, a false prophet. Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, condemned him, leading to Elymas' temporary blindness as a sign of God's judgment. Similarly, in 2 Corinthians 11:12-16, Paul warns against false apostles who disguise themselves as messengers of righteousness.

Jesus also warned His followers to beware of false prophets, stating in Matthew 7:15, “Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.” These warnings remind us of the importance of discerning God's true messengers.

   A template for how to prophesy against false teachers is in Ezekiel chapters 13 from verse 1 to verse 23  and substitute the name of your country with Israel and Jerusalem. 

  Another prophetic model against false preachers is found in Ezekiel 11: 1-12. A nation cannot succeed until God's judgement is brought upon the false prophets. 

  In our daily prayers ask the lord for God fearing preachers to be be bold to preach the gospel and for a healthy appetite for God's word.

Prayer: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to prophecy with signs and wonders following.
