Good-Life Devotional: FALSE PROPHETS CAUSE GOD'S PEOPLE TO ERR

By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi 

    False prophets are a danger to any nation and generation. Their deceitful influence leads people away from God’s will and results in widespread corruption and destruction. God declared through the prophet Jeremiah, “I have heard what the prophets say who prophesy lies in my name… they cause my people to err” (Jeremiah 23:23). These false prophets bring confusion, promoting sin under the disguise of spirituality.

    Isaiah lamented that even the prophets and priests “have erred through strong drink… they are swallowed up of wine” (Isaiah 28:7). Such spiritual leaders intoxicated with literal alcohol and pride have raised a generation addicted to wine and pleasure rather than the Word of God. “Woe unto them that rise up early… that they may follow strong drink” (Isaiah 5:11). This lifestyle fosters a culture of addiction, weak moral discipline, and confusion.

   Leaders have become champions of wine (Isaiah 5:22), unable to discern justice. This has led to national mismanagement and bad governance. As Jeremiah declared, “I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria… they cause my people Israel to err” (Jeremiah 23:13). Instead of teaching righteousness, they promote bribery and shortcut paths to success (Micah 3:11).

   But God has a remnant. He said in Isaiah 35:8, “a highway shall be there… the way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it.” True prophets must uphold this standard. God promises, “I will deliver my people out of your hand” (Ezekiel 13:21), freeing them from deception. Every believer must return to the Word and test every spirit (1 John 4:1).

  In our daily prayers we should seek a healthy appetite for God's word and the discernment.

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 overcome false preachers.
