Strap in for a deep-dive into the troubling trends of modern Christianity as we unearth the dangers of deception in religious leadership. We promise an incisive exploration of how the bar for holiness and righteousness has been lowered, creating fertile ground for false prophets to thrive. Referencing Matthew 7:21-23, we re-evaluate prophecy and urge a return to true righteousness and holiness.
As we navigate the turbulent sea of truth discernment in a world drowning in distractions, this episode uncovers the sly tactics of false prophets and 'transformed' ministers of righteousness. Drawing from Matthew 12:25-27, we call on you, our listeners, to question your understanding of prophecy and the peril of idolizing a man more than the Creator. Brace yourselves for a spirited discussion that will challenge your beliefs and spark a yearning for authentic spiritual awakening.

Speaker 1 (00:14):
You're listening to the Ambassadors Voice podcast.
Bless you and welcome to theAmbassadors Voice podcast, the
show centered around Christianbehavior and revealing the truth
(00:36):
of God's word.
I am Pastor Michael Pedrozo andI want to thank you for joining
me in this podcast episode.
I have a I don't know if I wantto call it a confession to make
or or just to get some thingsoff of my chest.
Just because of differentthings that I've seen, different
(00:56):
things that I've heard whetherit be social media or visiting
another church, or just beingout in the world, out in my
everyday travels and everythingthat I do throughout my day,
seeing and hearing a lot ofthings it has really brought a
lot of vexation to me.
It's really vexed my spirit, somuch so that even with this
(01:20):
episode, I'm not even sure whatto call it, what to name it, but
I'm going to be reading thescriptures and there's just
things that I've seen and Idon't really even know where to
go with this because it's justso much.
But I want to start in Matthew,chapter seven, verse 23,
(01:42):
starting at verse 21.
We're going to start at verse21.
And it says not everyone thatsaith unto me, lord Lord, shall
enter into the kingdom of heaven, but he that doeth the will of
my father, which is in heaven.
Many will say to me in that dayLord, lord, have I not
(02:06):
prophesied in thy name, and inthy name have cast out devils,
and in thy name done manywonderful works?
And then will I profess untothem I never knew you depart
from me, you that work in equity.
Now, that's a lot said comingfrom Jesus in just those three
(02:30):
scriptures.
It's because in those threescriptures he explains to you
what those who have or whobelieve in it may be by mistake.
I don't, I don't even want tosay by mistake.
It may be just because the waythings are and the way things
(02:51):
have been out in the world, inthe way a Christian life is
being portrayed out here in ourmodern day society that we have
today, so many of our brothersand sisters in Christ, true men
and women of God, have got tospeak up.
(03:11):
They've got to start standingup for holiness, standing up for
truth, standing up for therighteousness of God, because
there is so many differentthings that's going on in the
house of God because thosestandards have been lowered.
(03:32):
Holiness, true righteousness ofGod being filled with the Holy
Ghost, those things have beenlowered down to where it doesn't
even matter anymore.
It's all about a form and afashion, it's all about being in
an entertainment setting.
It says that in verse 22,.
(03:55):
Many will say to me in that day,lord Lord, have we not
prophesied in thy name?
Let's just start there.
I may be wrong.
This is of my own opinion andwhat I know by reading the word,
but I'm always known by readingthe word and you as well should
know by reading the word andhearing the gospel, whether if
(04:17):
you listen to it by audio or ifyou're reading it yourself.
You should know that wheneveryou read about a prophet in the
Bible, most of the time thoseprophets traveled alone.
The one prophet that I knewthat traveled with someone was
Elijah, because he had Elishawith him.
(04:38):
Now, a lot of the prophets, orsupposed to be prophets or
prophetess that are out theretoday, most of them, do not even
want to be known as a prophetor a prophetess.
They want to be calledprophetic.
They don't want to be known asa prophet.
I know that a lot of times thatwhen the prophets spoke, god
(04:59):
was precise and he was straightto the point.
I heard somebody say that wemiss being a prophet or
prophesying or speaking.
Sometimes we miss.
If you're prophesying and thisis and, like I said, this is me
speaking from my own opinion Ifyou are prophesying and God is
(05:20):
using you to prophesy, using youto speak, then if he's a God
that knows all things, he won'tmiss because he watches over his
word to see that it performedwhat he sent it out to do.
He won't miss, god will not misssomething that he already knows
is what's going to happen.
(05:40):
So how you can say that we missmeans you must not have the
spirit of God if you miss whenGod is using you to speak to
someone.
Because God don't miss, goddon't fail.
He's not a man that he shouldlie, neither the son of man that
he should repent.
God is not going to miss, buthe's going to be right on point
(06:05):
when he is using you to, whetherif it's to prophesy in
someone's life or whether ifit's to prophesy about a coming
event that's gonna come to pass,whether if it be earthquake or
storms or just some type ofcalamity.
(06:26):
I know in the Bible that theydidn't even like to see Samuel
coming in their direction,because God will not let that
man word fall to the ground.
And if you were saying that Godis using you to prophesy but
then you turn around and say youmiss, sometimes we miss, you're
(06:46):
basically saying that God isletting the word that he's given
you to speak fall to the ground.
So I'm trying to understandthis.
When he says that many will sayto me in that day, lord, lord,
have we not prophesied in thyname?
Then he turns around and saysand in thy name, have cast out
(07:09):
devils.
I think I'm at a loss for wordsbecause some of the things that
I've seen from around the world, whether it be on social media,
I've come across certain thingsand have heard people say
certain things, like I heard awoman prophesy and she was
speaking out into thecongregation and she told
(07:33):
everybody to call on the angelsof light.
Now, if I'm not mistaken and Iknow that I'm not in the Bible,
when the Bible talks aboutangels of light, it's referring
to Satan transferring himself toan angel of light.
How can Satan cast out Satan?
(07:54):
How can be Elizabeth cast outBeelzebub?
Now, in Matthew 12, verse 25through 27, it says, starting at
verse 25 and Jesus knew theirthoughts and said unto them
every kingdom divided againstitself is brought to desolation
and every city or house dividedagainst itself shall not stand.
(08:17):
And if Satan cast out Satan, heis divided against himself.
How shall then his kingdomstand?
And if I be Beelzebub, and if Ibuy Beelzebub, cast out devils,
(08:38):
by whom do your children castthem out?
Therefore, they shall be yourjudges.
So maybe you wondering why Iread this scripture.
It's because God said that hewould send a strong delusion.
And I believe that right now,in this day, in this hour, in
(09:02):
this time that we are living in,a lot of us are in and walking
in and under a strong delusion.
Because in 2 Thessalonians,chapter 2, verses 9 through 12,
it says even him, whose comingis after the working of Satan,
(09:22):
with all power and signs andlying wonders and with all
deceivableness ofunrighteousness in them that
perish because they receive notthe love of the truth that they
might be saved for this cause,god shall send them strong
delusion that they shouldbelieve a lie, that they all
(09:46):
might be damned, who believe notthe truth but had pleasure in
unrighteousness.
We have to realize that andmaybe a lot of us as believers
don't know this and don'tunderstand this is that we have
pastors that are out here thatare wolves in sheep clothing.
(10:08):
They are wolves in sheepclothing because they didn't
take the time to get before Godand pray.
They didn't take the time toget before God and seek his face
.
They didn't take the time tograb a hold of the altar and cry
out to God to receive the giftof the Holy Ghost.
(10:30):
But instead, you know what theydid?
They sought out sorcery.
They sought out witchcraft tobe able to have the power to do
just as it says, to have allpower and signs and lying
wonders.
I believe they call it blackmagic.
(10:51):
So it will look like God, itwill look like the Lord is using
them to perform a miracle, toperform a wonder, to send signs.
But in all reality it's magic,it's sorcery, it's psychic
ability.
These are things that are beingused right now in the house of
(11:13):
God and we as God's people hesaid it in Matthew, chapter 24
and saints, I believe that if wedon't seek God, if we don't
know what our word says, knowwhat the word of God says, if we
don't pay attention to what thescriptures say Matthew, chapter
(11:34):
24, verse 22 through 24, isgonna happen to some of us.
So we need to pray that God Doesthis, so this don't happen to
us.
Because it says in verse 22 ofMatthew, 24 and except those
days should be shortened.
There should no flesh be saved,but for the elect's sake, those
(11:57):
days shall be shortened.
Then, if any man shall say untoyou, low, here is Christ or
there, believe it not, for thereshall arise false Christ number
one and false prophets numbertwo and Shall show great signs
and wonders, in so much that, ifit were possible, they shall
(12:22):
deceive the very elect.
So what is this saying?
If we are not careful About whowe listen to and if we don't
check these people out pastors,prophets, teachers, whoever it
may be, even myself if we don'tcheck them out by the word of
(12:42):
God, we are gonna be deceived byfalse Christ, by false prophets
, who are going to show greatsigns and Wonders and have all
power.
According to this, these twoscriptures that I just read,
second Thessalonians, chapter 2,verses 9 through 12, and
(13:03):
Matthew, chapter 24, versus 22through 24 if we are not paying
attention and Lining God's wordup with what these people say,
with what these pastors, theseprophets, these preachers say,
we are going to be deceived.
People of God, remember when yougo back to the Bible with Moses
(13:23):
.
When you go back into the Biblewith Moses, when God sent him
and Aaron to Pharaoh and theycast down that Rod and the rod
turned into a snake, what didPharaoh do?
He called for his magicians.
He called for all of his falseprophets and magicians and and
(13:44):
Sorcerers and they stepped outand they created the same Thing
that the staff or the rod thatMoses and Aaron threw down
created.
It created a snake.
But what happened to it?
The snake that Moses and Aaroncreated, that God created by
using the staff or the rod thatMoses and Aaron put down, it
(14:07):
devoured the other snakes.
So that shows me that God'spower trumps what Satan will
ever try and imitate or willever try and Copy what God will
do.
But it does not mean that hewon't be able to create
something that mimics or looksjust like something that God
(14:31):
will do.
Remember this is after theworking of Satan, with all power
and Signs and lying wonders andwith all deceivableness of
unrighteousness.
I want to ask like why do wethink God says Depart from me
(14:51):
you that work iniquity?
Think about that.
You have to think about what hemeans by that because, as a
true and you hear me puttingemphasis on true, because a True
man of God, a true believer inChrist, is going to do
everything within them to notwillfully sin, because there's
(15:16):
gonna be so much convictionthat's gonna come up on them
that they will, as the Biblesays, repent quickly if they
fall into a snare or a trick ofthe enemy.
They will repent quicklybecause they understand and they
have a fear and a reverence ofGod within themselves because of
(15:41):
the Holy Ghost.
But those that work iniquity,as he says to depart from me all
ye workers of iniquity, there'sno conviction within them when
they stand up in the pulpit andSupposedly prophesy or
supposedly speak into someone'slife or speak the word of God or
(16:03):
whatever they're doing.
Because you remember, satanknows the word as well, remember
he spoke it to Jesus.
So you go back to where theword says Angels of light, and
you wonder why I'm saying or whyI brought up that I heard
someone Speak or was prophesying, or supposedly prophesying to a
(16:26):
body of believers or a body ora congregation of people and in
their Prophecying told thecongregation to call on the
angels of light to come to theirposts.
And why I am not in agreementwith that because in second
Corinthians, chapter 11, verses14 and 15, says this and no
(16:55):
marvel, for Satan himself isTransformed into an angel of
light.
Therefore it is no great thingif his ministers also be
transformed as the ministers ofrighteousness whose in Shall be
(17:16):
according to their works.
That says a lot right therewithin itself.
So we have to be careful, beaware of Satan devices.
I heard a man of God say that wemust know our enemy Because he
know us, he knows who we are, heknow the things that we used to
(17:37):
do before we became a man orGod, before we became a woman of
God.
He knew what we were out theredoing before we got saved, so he
knows how to bring temptationour way.
Of course it's going to bethings that we used to do before
we got saved and it may even besome new things that we may be
(17:58):
dealing with in our life.
It makes it that much moreeasier for him to deceive us, as
the word says, when he hasministers of righteousness or
ministers that have transformedthemselves as the ministers of
(18:20):
righteousness.
So basically, paul is sayingit's no big thing for him to
have ministers that have alsotransformed themselves into
ministers of righteousness.
So a lot of the people that wesit and listen to that preach
the word of God.
We have to check them out bythe word, to make sure that
(18:43):
we're not listening to a wolf insheep clothing, to make sure
that we're not listening toSatan himself, who is
transformed into an angel oflight.
So in his name, they're goingto prophesy.
In his name, as they said inthy name, have we not prophesied
(19:07):
, lord, lord, have we notprophesied?
In thy name, and in thy namehave cast out devils, and in thy
name, done many wonderful works.
I just read all of thesedifferent scriptures to you.
That shows you a strongdelusion that we're walking in,
that some of us have been placedin.
(19:27):
That also shows you that therewill be many false Christ, many
false prophets that will show upon the scene to deceive the
very elect, to deceive thepeople of God.
Why?
Because Satan know he ain'tgoing to be able to make it in
the heaven.
He don't have anotheropportunity to make it into
(19:49):
heaven.
So what is he, on the job,trying to do?
Trying to make sure that thoseof us that have given our life
to Christ and we are sincere, weare dedicated, we are committed
to living for Christ and livingin Christ and saving and
wanting to save others, have aheart and a desire to save
(20:10):
others, that his job is to tryand get us off of our posts so
that that young man or that oldman or that young woman or that
old woman that we met or that wecame across will not hear the
word of God.
We don't ever know when God isusing us to plant the seed.
(20:30):
We don't ever know when God isusing us to water the seed that
had been planted.
It's God that gives theincrease, but as men of God, as
women of God, we have to beaware of Satan devices, because
if we are not paying attention,if we are not aware, if we are
(20:50):
not discerning the signs of thetime, we ourselves, as the
scripture said, if it werepossible, the very elect would
be deceived.
I want to read a scripture thatspeaks to those of us that are
looking for sign and wonders.
It says in Matthew, chapter 16,verses two through four.
(21:12):
He answered and said unto themwhen it is evening, ye say it
will be fair weather, for thesky is red, and in the morning
it will be foul weather today,for the sky is red and lowering.
Oh ye, hypocrites, you candiscern the face of the sky, but
you cannot discern the signs ofthe time.
(21:34):
A wicked and adulterousgeneration seeketh after a sign,
and there shall no sign begiven unto it, but the sign of
the prophet Jonas, and he leftthem and departed.
So while we're out here seekingfor somebody to prophesy to us,
(21:56):
seeking for someone to give usa word from God, we have to be
careful with that, because wedon't realize and don't know.
And also, who pays for aprophecy?
It is my understanding thatthey're out there charging now
for prophecy, for them toprophesy to you.
That sounds to me likewitchcraft.
(22:18):
It sounds to me like a psychic,but instead of you going to a
place where a psychic may be,they have now infiltrated the
House of God, and God is notpleased with this.
You have so much I call itfoolishness so much foolishness
going on in the House of God,and God is not pleased with it.
(22:38):
He said in his word that myhouse shall be called a House of
Prayer, but we have noreverence, no fear of God.
The fear of God has left thebuilding, because now anything
and everything just about goeson in the House of God or takes
(23:01):
place within the supposed to bemen and women of God, bishops of
God, those that are prophetsand prophetists or being
prophetic, and they're supposedto be men and women of God, but
they have so much wickednessgoing on in their life that none
(23:22):
of us know anything about.
But when you have, god saidthat he would expose them, he
said that he would expose them.
And when you have someone whomay run in these circles with
these people, because theyconnect with one another, they
can't walk in true holinessbecause some of these people
(23:42):
have made oaths to other gods,they have made pledges to other
gods and if we are not carefulwe will fall up under that same
spirit that they have on themand we'll find ourselves
worshiping other gods or notgiving ourselves 100% commitment
(24:06):
and 100% dedication to God.
We will find ourselvesworshiping the man more than the
Creator.
If we are not careful, we willfind ourselves in that place of
worshiping a man more than theCreator.
God spoke about it in his WordIn Romans, chapter 1, verse 25,.
(24:29):
It says who changed the truthof God into a lie and worshiped
and served the creature morethan the Creator, who is blessed
forever.
Amen.
But when you go back up in thosescriptures, he says in verse
21,.
Because that when they knew God, they glorified Him not as God,
(24:55):
neither were thankful, butbecame vain in their
imaginations and their foolishhearts was darkened.
Professing themselves to bewise, they became fools and
changed the glory of theuncorruptible God into an image
made like to uncorruptible manand to birds and to four-footed
(25:20):
beasts and creeping things.
Verse 24 says Wherefore Godalso gave them up to uncleanness
through the lusts of their ownhearts to dishonor their own
bodies between themselves, whochanged the truth of God into a
lie and worshiped and served thecreature more than the Creator,
(25:42):
who is blessed forever.
Amen.
And God says in verse 26, thatfor this cause God gave them up
unto vile affection, for eventheir women did change the
natural use into that which isagainst nature.
Verse 27 says and likewise alsothe men, leaving the natural
(26:07):
use of the woman burned in theirlusts one toward another, men
with men working that which isunseemly and receiving in
themselves that recompense oftheir error which was meet.
And even as they did not liketo retain God in their knowledge
, god gave them over to areprobate mind to do those
(26:32):
things which are not convenient.
That's a mouthful, that's a lot.
But these are the type ofpastors, leaders, bishops
supposed to be apostles that weare dealing with in this day and
age.
They are being filled with allunrighteousness, fornication,
(26:56):
wickedness, covetousness,maliciousness, full of envy,
murder, debate, deceit,malignity and whisperers.
They are backbiders.
They're haters of God.
Despiteful, they're proud,they're boasters, inventors of
evil things, disobedient toparents, without understanding.
(27:18):
They are covenant breakerswithout natural affection,
implacable, unmerciful, who,knowing the judgment of God that
they which commit such thingsare worthy of death, not only do
the same but have pleasure inthem that do them.
(27:39):
These are the type of leadersthat we are dealing with.
These are the type of leadersthat we have standing in the
pulpit speaking to you.
We must be aware, we must payattention to the things that are
coming into our ears, that weare taking into our spirit, that
(28:05):
will cause us to be in a placeof being tossed by every wind of
doctrine, because we are givingourselves over to so many of
these things and listening to somany different people preachers
, pastors, prophets, whateveryou want to call them.
They are deceiving God's peopleOn a weekly basis.
(28:29):
They are deceiving God's peopleand standing before you as wolf
and sheep clothing becausethey're with their mouth.
They say that they love God,but their hearts are far from
Him, because once they leavethat pulpit, once they leave
from in front of you doing theirperformance or for as many of
(28:51):
them it's a nine to five job.
So when they leave and theyclock out of work, they go do
what they do and sometimes theydon't even have anything to do
with God.
So all I am saying here is thatbe aware of what the enemy is
doing in this hour.
Be aware of the tricks and theschemes and the plots that the
(29:18):
enemy has out there to deceivethe people of God.
Be aware, pay attention to thethings of God, to the word of
God.
Find men and women of God thatare true men and women of God,
that are pastors that arespeaking the truth and they will
(29:38):
not deviate from God's word.
They will not stand up in apulpit and tell you some kind of
out of left field story and tryand mix the word of God into it
, but they will give you whatyou need to make it into the
kingdom of heaven.
They will give you what yoursoul needs to repent of a
(30:00):
lifestyle that you don't realizethat you are living in because
the pastor that was up in thatpulpit made you feel like what
you were doing is okay.
We have to think about whenthey are talking about the love
of God, just as we were when wewere parents, or why we are
parents, even if you don't havechildren.
(30:21):
Think about when your parentsRaised you and how they chasing
you when you done things thatwere wrong.
That didn't mean they didn'tlove you, but it was a form of
correction to make sure that youstayed on straight street.
God is the same way he loves us,but that does not mean he's not
gonna chasing us, because hesaid in his word he chasing
(30:43):
those whom he love and that ifyou are without chest Heisman,
you are a bastard and not a son.
In Hebrews, chapter 12, verse 6through 11, and says for whom
the Lord loveth, he chasing itand scourges every son whom he
receive it.
(31:04):
If you endure Chasing in, goddealeth with you as sons.
For what son is he whom thefather chasing, then not.
But if ye be without chestHeisman, where of all our
partakers?
Therefore, then are youbastards and not sons that's
(31:25):
God's word as Children of God,god is gonna chest Heisman when
we step out of line from hisword when we profess and say
that we love him.
But if you are without chest,heisman, as some of these
leaders are, they are bastardsand not sons.
Some of them have been turnedover to a reprobate mind because
(31:47):
they choose to have it theirway rather than walking in the
spirit of God.
They already, from thebeginning, chose.
Some of them started out Well,they did run Well, but who
hindered them?
They ended up in a place towhere they sought other things
(32:09):
to get power, and it wasn't fromGod.
And this is what we are beingtaught and Spoken to and
prophesied to.
We're being spoken to byanother spirit.
We're being prophesied to byanother spirit because these
leaders, these people, decidedto go out and Search out and
(32:31):
seek out black magic.
You don't have to take my word.
You can do your researchyourself and find out how many
pastors have gone out and soughtout Sorcery and witchcraft to
have power, to be a powerful manof God, to be a powerful woman
of God, because they felt likeGod was taken too long again.
(32:52):
All I'm saying is be aware ofSatan devices, be aware of the
schemes and the plots and thetricks that Satan has of his
sleeve that if we are notcareful, as the word says, even
the very elect would be deceived.
God tells us in Luke, chapter 13, to strive to enter in,
(33:18):
starting at verse 24, to striveto enter in at the straight gate
for many.
I say unto you will seek toenter in and shall not be able.
Why?
Because verse 25, 26, 27 saysit, 28 says it.
When, once the master of thehouse is risen up and have shut
(33:41):
the door and you begin to standwithout and To knock at the door
saying Lord, lord, open unto us.
And he shall answer and sayunto you, I know you not whence
you are, then shall you begin tosay we have eaten and Drunk in
(34:02):
thy presence and thou has taughtin our streets.
But he shall say I tell you, Iknow you not whence you are.
Depart from me, all Workers ofiniquity.
There shall be weeping andNashing of teeth when ye shall
see Abraham and Isaac and Jacoband all the prophets in the
(34:25):
kingdom of God and youyourselves Thrust out.
Keep in mind, saints.
In Matthew 24, 11 through 13,it says and many false prophets
shall rise and shall deceivemany, and Because iniquity shall
abound, the love of many shallwax cold, but he that shall
(34:48):
endure unto the end, the sameshall be saved.
Continue to strive, saints.
Continue to strive to enter inat the straight gate that you
won't find yourself on theoutside after the door has been
shut, but endure until the end,because the word of God says
(35:08):
that the same shall be saved.

I have a I don't know if I wantto call it a confession to make
or or just to get some thingsoff of my chest.
Just because of differentthings that I've seen, different
(00:56):
things that I've heard whetherit be social media or visiting
another church, or just beingout in the world, out in my
everyday travels and everythingthat I do throughout my day,
seeing and hearing a lot ofthings it has really brought a
lot of vexation to me.
It's really vexed my spirit, somuch so that even with this
(01:20):
episode, I'm not even sure whatto call it, what to name it, but
I'm going to be reading thescriptures and there's just
things that I've seen and Idon't really even know where to
go with this because it's justso much.
But I want to start in Matthew,chapter seven, verse 23,
(01:42):
starting at verse 21.
We're going to start at verse21.
And it says not everyone thatsaith unto me, lord Lord, shall
enter into the kingdom of heaven, but he that doeth the will of
my father, which is in heaven.
Many will say to me in that dayLord, lord, have I not
(02:06):
prophesied in thy name, and inthy name have cast out devils,
and in thy name done manywonderful works?
And then will I profess untothem I never knew you depart
from me, you that work in equity.
Now, that's a lot said comingfrom Jesus in just those three
(02:30):
scriptures.
It's because in those threescriptures he explains to you
what those who have or whobelieve in it may be by mistake.
I don't, I don't even want tosay by mistake.
It may be just because the waythings are and the way things
(02:51):
have been out in the world, inthe way a Christian life is
being portrayed out here in ourmodern day society that we have
today, so many of our brothersand sisters in Christ, true men
and women of God, have got tospeak up.
(03:11):
They've got to start standingup for holiness, standing up for
truth, standing up for therighteousness of God, because
there is so many differentthings that's going on in the
house of God because thosestandards have been lowered.
(03:32):
Holiness, true righteousness ofGod being filled with the Holy
Ghost, those things have beenlowered down to where it doesn't
even matter anymore.
It's all about a form and afashion, it's all about being in
an entertainment setting.
It says that in verse 22,.
(03:55):
Many will say to me in that day,lord Lord, have we not
prophesied in thy name?
Let's just start there.
I may be wrong.
This is of my own opinion andwhat I know by reading the word,
but I'm always known by readingthe word and you as well should
know by reading the word andhearing the gospel, whether if
(04:17):
you listen to it by audio or ifyou're reading it yourself.
You should know that wheneveryou read about a prophet in the
Bible, most of the time thoseprophets traveled alone.
The one prophet that I knewthat traveled with someone was
Elijah, because he had Elishawith him.
(04:38):
Now, a lot of the prophets, orsupposed to be prophets or
prophetess that are out theretoday, most of them, do not even
want to be known as a prophetor a prophetess.
They want to be calledprophetic.
They don't want to be known asa prophet.
I know that a lot of times thatwhen the prophets spoke, god
(04:59):
was precise and he was straightto the point.
I heard somebody say that wemiss being a prophet or
prophesying or speaking.
Sometimes we miss.
If you're prophesying and thisis and, like I said, this is me
speaking from my own opinion Ifyou are prophesying and God is
(05:20):
using you to prophesy, using youto speak, then if he's a God
that knows all things, he won'tmiss because he watches over his
word to see that it performedwhat he sent it out to do.
He won't miss, god will not misssomething that he already knows
is what's going to happen.
(05:40):
So how you can say that we missmeans you must not have the
spirit of God if you miss whenGod is using you to speak to
someone.
Because God don't miss, goddon't fail.
He's not a man that he shouldlie, neither the son of man that
he should repent.
God is not going to miss, buthe's going to be right on point
(06:05):
when he is using you to, whetherif it's to prophesy in
someone's life or whether ifit's to prophesy about a coming
event that's gonna come to pass,whether if it be earthquake or
storms or just some type ofcalamity.
(06:26):
I know in the Bible that theydidn't even like to see Samuel
coming in their direction,because God will not let that
man word fall to the ground.
And if you were saying that Godis using you to prophesy but
then you turn around and say youmiss, sometimes we miss, you're
(06:46):
basically saying that God isletting the word that he's given
you to speak fall to the ground.
So I'm trying to understandthis.
When he says that many will sayto me in that day, lord, lord,
have we not prophesied in thyname?
Then he turns around and saysand in thy name, have cast out
(07:09):
devils.
I think I'm at a loss for wordsbecause some of the things that
I've seen from around the world, whether it be on social media,
I've come across certain thingsand have heard people say
certain things, like I heard awoman prophesy and she was
speaking out into thecongregation and she told
(07:33):
everybody to call on the angelsof light.
Now, if I'm not mistaken and Iknow that I'm not in the Bible,
when the Bible talks aboutangels of light, it's referring
to Satan transferring himself toan angel of light.
How can Satan cast out Satan?
(07:54):
How can be Elizabeth cast outBeelzebub?
Now, in Matthew 12, verse 25through 27, it says, starting at
verse 25 and Jesus knew theirthoughts and said unto them
every kingdom divided againstitself is brought to desolation
and every city or house dividedagainst itself shall not stand.
(08:17):
And if Satan cast out Satan, heis divided against himself.
How shall then his kingdomstand?
And if I be Beelzebub, and if Ibuy Beelzebub, cast out devils,
(08:38):
by whom do your children castthem out?
Therefore, they shall be yourjudges.
So maybe you wondering why Iread this scripture.
It's because God said that hewould send a strong delusion.
And I believe that right now,in this day, in this hour, in
(09:02):
this time that we are living in,a lot of us are in and walking
in and under a strong delusion.
Because in 2 Thessalonians,chapter 2, verses 9 through 12,
it says even him, whose comingis after the working of Satan,
(09:22):
with all power and signs andlying wonders and with all
deceivableness ofunrighteousness in them that
perish because they receive notthe love of the truth that they
might be saved for this cause,god shall send them strong
delusion that they shouldbelieve a lie, that they all
(09:46):
might be damned, who believe notthe truth but had pleasure in
unrighteousness.
We have to realize that andmaybe a lot of us as believers
don't know this and don'tunderstand this is that we have
pastors that are out here thatare wolves in sheep clothing.
(10:08):
They are wolves in sheepclothing because they didn't
take the time to get before Godand pray.
They didn't take the time toget before God and seek his face
.
They didn't take the time tograb a hold of the altar and cry
out to God to receive the giftof the Holy Ghost.
(10:30):
But instead, you know what theydid?
They sought out sorcery.
They sought out witchcraft tobe able to have the power to do
just as it says, to have allpower and signs and lying
wonders.
I believe they call it blackmagic.
(10:51):
So it will look like God, itwill look like the Lord is using
them to perform a miracle, toperform a wonder, to send signs.
But in all reality it's magic,it's sorcery, it's psychic
ability.
These are things that are beingused right now in the house of
(11:13):
God and we as God's people hesaid it in Matthew, chapter 24
and saints, I believe that if wedon't seek God, if we don't
know what our word says, knowwhat the word of God says, if we
don't pay attention to what thescriptures say Matthew, chapter
(11:34):
24, verse 22 through 24, isgonna happen to some of us.
So we need to pray that God Doesthis, so this don't happen to
us.
Because it says in verse 22 ofMatthew, 24 and except those
days should be shortened.
There should no flesh be saved,but for the elect's sake, those
(11:57):
days shall be shortened.
Then, if any man shall say untoyou, low, here is Christ or
there, believe it not, for thereshall arise false Christ number
one and false prophets numbertwo and Shall show great signs
and wonders, in so much that, ifit were possible, they shall
(12:22):
deceive the very elect.
So what is this saying?
If we are not careful About whowe listen to and if we don't
check these people out pastors,prophets, teachers, whoever it
may be, even myself if we don'tcheck them out by the word of
(12:42):
God, we are gonna be deceived byfalse Christ, by false prophets
, who are going to show greatsigns and Wonders and have all
power.
According to this, these twoscriptures that I just read,
second Thessalonians, chapter 2,verses 9 through 12, and
(13:03):
Matthew, chapter 24, versus 22through 24 if we are not paying
attention and Lining God's wordup with what these people say,
with what these pastors, theseprophets, these preachers say,
we are going to be deceived.
People of God, remember when yougo back to the Bible with Moses
(13:23):
.
When you go back into the Biblewith Moses, when God sent him
and Aaron to Pharaoh and theycast down that Rod and the rod
turned into a snake, what didPharaoh do?
He called for his magicians.
He called for all of his falseprophets and magicians and and
(13:44):
Sorcerers and they stepped outand they created the same Thing
that the staff or the rod thatMoses and Aaron threw down
created.
It created a snake.
But what happened to it?
The snake that Moses and Aaroncreated, that God created by
using the staff or the rod thatMoses and Aaron put down, it
(14:07):
devoured the other snakes.
So that shows me that God'spower trumps what Satan will
ever try and imitate or willever try and Copy what God will
do.
But it does not mean that hewon't be able to create
something that mimics or looksjust like something that God
(14:31):
will do.
Remember this is after theworking of Satan, with all power
and Signs and lying wonders andwith all deceivableness of
unrighteousness.
I want to ask like why do wethink God says Depart from me
(14:51):
you that work iniquity?
Think about that.
You have to think about what hemeans by that because, as a
true and you hear me puttingemphasis on true, because a True
man of God, a true believer inChrist, is going to do
everything within them to notwillfully sin, because there's
(15:16):
gonna be so much convictionthat's gonna come up on them
that they will, as the Biblesays, repent quickly if they
fall into a snare or a trick ofthe enemy.
They will repent quicklybecause they understand and they
have a fear and a reverence ofGod within themselves because of
(15:41):
the Holy Ghost.
But those that work iniquity,as he says to depart from me all
ye workers of iniquity, there'sno conviction within them when
they stand up in the pulpit andSupposedly prophesy or
supposedly speak into someone'slife or speak the word of God or
(16:03):
whatever they're doing.
Because you remember, satanknows the word as well, remember
he spoke it to Jesus.
So you go back to where theword says Angels of light, and
you wonder why I'm saying or whyI brought up that I heard
someone Speak or was prophesying, or supposedly prophesying to a
(16:26):
body of believers or a body ora congregation of people and in
their Prophecying told thecongregation to call on the
angels of light to come to theirposts.
And why I am not in agreementwith that because in second
Corinthians, chapter 11, verses14 and 15, says this and no
(16:55):
marvel, for Satan himself isTransformed into an angel of
light.
Therefore it is no great thingif his ministers also be
transformed as the ministers ofrighteousness whose in Shall be
(17:16):
according to their works.
That says a lot right therewithin itself.
So we have to be careful, beaware of Satan devices.
I heard a man of God say that wemust know our enemy Because he
know us, he knows who we are, heknow the things that we used to
(17:37):
do before we became a man orGod, before we became a woman of
God.
He knew what we were out theredoing before we got saved, so he
knows how to bring temptationour way.
Of course it's going to bethings that we used to do before
we got saved and it may even besome new things that we may be
(17:58):
dealing with in our life.
It makes it that much moreeasier for him to deceive us, as
the word says, when he hasministers of righteousness or
ministers that have transformedthemselves as the ministers of
(18:20):
righteousness.
So basically, paul is sayingit's no big thing for him to
have ministers that have alsotransformed themselves into
ministers of righteousness.
So a lot of the people that wesit and listen to that preach
the word of God.
We have to check them out bythe word, to make sure that
(18:43):
we're not listening to a wolf insheep clothing, to make sure
that we're not listening toSatan himself, who is
transformed into an angel oflight.
So in his name, they're goingto prophesy.
In his name, as they said inthy name, have we not prophesied
(19:07):
, lord, lord, have we notprophesied?
In thy name, and in thy namehave cast out devils, and in thy
name, done many wonderful works.
I just read all of thesedifferent scriptures to you.
That shows you a strongdelusion that we're walking in,
that some of us have been placedin.
(19:27):
That also shows you that therewill be many false Christ, many
false prophets that will show upon the scene to deceive the
very elect, to deceive thepeople of God.
Why?
Because Satan know he ain'tgoing to be able to make it in
the heaven.
He don't have anotheropportunity to make it into
(19:49):
heaven.
So what is he, on the job,trying to do?
Trying to make sure that thoseof us that have given our life
to Christ and we are sincere, weare dedicated, we are committed
to living for Christ and livingin Christ and saving and
wanting to save others, have aheart and a desire to save
(20:10):
others, that his job is to tryand get us off of our posts so
that that young man or that oldman or that young woman or that
old woman that we met or that wecame across will not hear the
word of God.
We don't ever know when God isusing us to plant the seed.
(20:30):
We don't ever know when God isusing us to water the seed that
had been planted.
It's God that gives theincrease, but as men of God, as
women of God, we have to beaware of Satan devices, because
if we are not paying attention,if we are not aware, if we are
(20:50):
not discerning the signs of thetime, we ourselves, as the
scripture said, if it werepossible, the very elect would
be deceived.
I want to read a scripture thatspeaks to those of us that are
looking for sign and wonders.
It says in Matthew, chapter 16,verses two through four.
(21:12):
He answered and said unto themwhen it is evening, ye say it
will be fair weather, for thesky is red, and in the morning
it will be foul weather today,for the sky is red and lowering.
Oh ye, hypocrites, you candiscern the face of the sky, but
you cannot discern the signs ofthe time.
(21:34):
A wicked and adulterousgeneration seeketh after a sign,
and there shall no sign begiven unto it, but the sign of
the prophet Jonas, and he leftthem and departed.
So while we're out here seekingfor somebody to prophesy to us,
(21:56):
seeking for someone to give usa word from God, we have to be
careful with that, because wedon't realize and don't know.
And also, who pays for aprophecy?
It is my understanding thatthey're out there charging now
for prophecy, for them toprophesy to you.
That sounds to me likewitchcraft.
(22:18):
It sounds to me like a psychic,but instead of you going to a
place where a psychic may be,they have now infiltrated the
House of God, and God is notpleased with this.
You have so much I call itfoolishness so much foolishness
going on in the House of God,and God is not pleased with it.
(22:38):
He said in his word that myhouse shall be called a House of
Prayer, but we have noreverence, no fear of God.
The fear of God has left thebuilding, because now anything
and everything just about goeson in the House of God or takes
(23:01):
place within the supposed to bemen and women of God, bishops of
God, those that are prophetsand prophetists or being
prophetic, and they're supposedto be men and women of God, but
they have so much wickednessgoing on in their life that none
(23:22):
of us know anything about.
But when you have, god saidthat he would expose them, he
said that he would expose them.
And when you have someone whomay run in these circles with
these people, because theyconnect with one another, they
can't walk in true holinessbecause some of these people
(23:42):
have made oaths to other gods,they have made pledges to other
gods and if we are not carefulwe will fall up under that same
spirit that they have on themand we'll find ourselves
worshiping other gods or notgiving ourselves 100% commitment
(24:06):
and 100% dedication to God.
We will find ourselvesworshiping the man more than the
Creator.
If we are not careful, we willfind ourselves in that place of
worshiping a man more than theCreator.
God spoke about it in his WordIn Romans, chapter 1, verse 25,.
(24:29):
It says who changed the truthof God into a lie and worshiped
and served the creature morethan the Creator, who is blessed
forever.
Amen.
But when you go back up in thosescriptures, he says in verse
21,.
Because that when they knew God, they glorified Him not as God,
(24:55):
neither were thankful, butbecame vain in their
imaginations and their foolishhearts was darkened.
Professing themselves to bewise, they became fools and
changed the glory of theuncorruptible God into an image
made like to uncorruptible manand to birds and to four-footed
(25:20):
beasts and creeping things.
Verse 24 says Wherefore Godalso gave them up to uncleanness
through the lusts of their ownhearts to dishonor their own
bodies between themselves, whochanged the truth of God into a
lie and worshiped and served thecreature more than the Creator,
(25:42):
who is blessed forever.
Amen.
And God says in verse 26, thatfor this cause God gave them up
unto vile affection, for eventheir women did change the
natural use into that which isagainst nature.
Verse 27 says and likewise alsothe men, leaving the natural
(26:07):
use of the woman burned in theirlusts one toward another, men
with men working that which isunseemly and receiving in
themselves that recompense oftheir error which was meet.
And even as they did not liketo retain God in their knowledge
, god gave them over to areprobate mind to do those
(26:32):
things which are not convenient.
That's a mouthful, that's a lot.
But these are the type ofpastors, leaders, bishops
supposed to be apostles that weare dealing with in this day and
age.
They are being filled with allunrighteousness, fornication,
(26:56):
wickedness, covetousness,maliciousness, full of envy,
murder, debate, deceit,malignity and whisperers.
They are backbiders.
They're haters of God.
Despiteful, they're proud,they're boasters, inventors of
evil things, disobedient toparents, without understanding.
(27:18):
They are covenant breakerswithout natural affection,
implacable, unmerciful, who,knowing the judgment of God that
they which commit such thingsare worthy of death, not only do
the same but have pleasure inthem that do them.
(27:39):
These are the type of leadersthat we are dealing with.
These are the type of leadersthat we have standing in the
pulpit speaking to you.
We must be aware, we must payattention to the things that are
coming into our ears, that weare taking into our spirit, that
(28:05):
will cause us to be in a placeof being tossed by every wind of
doctrine, because we are givingourselves over to so many of
these things and listening to somany different people preachers
, pastors, prophets, whateveryou want to call them.
They are deceiving God's peopleOn a weekly basis.
(28:29):
They are deceiving God's peopleand standing before you as wolf
and sheep clothing becausethey're with their mouth.
They say that they love God,but their hearts are far from
Him, because once they leavethat pulpit, once they leave
from in front of you doing theirperformance or for as many of
(28:51):
them it's a nine to five job.
So when they leave and theyclock out of work, they go do
what they do and sometimes theydon't even have anything to do
with God.
So all I am saying here is thatbe aware of what the enemy is
doing in this hour.
Be aware of the tricks and theschemes and the plots that the
(29:18):
enemy has out there to deceivethe people of God.
Be aware, pay attention to thethings of God, to the word of
God.
Find men and women of God thatare true men and women of God,
that are pastors that arespeaking the truth and they will
(29:38):
not deviate from God's word.
They will not stand up in apulpit and tell you some kind of
out of left field story and tryand mix the word of God into it
, but they will give you whatyou need to make it into the
kingdom of heaven.
They will give you what yoursoul needs to repent of a
(30:00):
lifestyle that you don't realizethat you are living in because
the pastor that was up in thatpulpit made you feel like what
you were doing is okay.
We have to think about whenthey are talking about the love
of God, just as we were when wewere parents, or why we are
parents, even if you don't havechildren.
(30:21):
Think about when your parentsRaised you and how they chasing
you when you done things thatwere wrong.
That didn't mean they didn'tlove you, but it was a form of
correction to make sure that youstayed on straight street.
God is the same way he loves us,but that does not mean he's not
gonna chasing us, because hesaid in his word he chasing
(30:43):
those whom he love and that ifyou are without chest Heisman,
you are a bastard and not a son.
In Hebrews, chapter 12, verse 6through 11, and says for whom
the Lord loveth, he chasing itand scourges every son whom he
receive it.
(31:04):
If you endure Chasing in, goddealeth with you as sons.
For what son is he whom thefather chasing, then not.
But if ye be without chestHeisman, where of all our
partakers?
Therefore, then are youbastards and not sons that's
(31:25):
God's word as Children of God,god is gonna chest Heisman when
we step out of line from hisword when we profess and say
that we love him.
But if you are without chest,heisman, as some of these
leaders are, they are bastardsand not sons.
Some of them have been turnedover to a reprobate mind because
(31:47):
they choose to have it theirway rather than walking in the
spirit of God.
They already, from thebeginning, chose.
Some of them started out Well,they did run Well, but who
hindered them?
They ended up in a place towhere they sought other things
(32:09):
to get power, and it wasn't fromGod.
And this is what we are beingtaught and Spoken to and
prophesied to.
We're being spoken to byanother spirit.
We're being prophesied to byanother spirit because these
leaders, these people, decidedto go out and Search out and
(32:31):
seek out black magic.
You don't have to take my word.
You can do your researchyourself and find out how many
pastors have gone out and soughtout Sorcery and witchcraft to
have power, to be a powerful manof God, to be a powerful woman
of God, because they felt likeGod was taken too long again.
(32:52):
All I'm saying is be aware ofSatan devices, be aware of the
schemes and the plots and thetricks that Satan has of his
sleeve that if we are notcareful, as the word says, even
the very elect would be deceived.
God tells us in Luke, chapter 13, to strive to enter in,
(33:18):
starting at verse 24, to striveto enter in at the straight gate
for many.
I say unto you will seek toenter in and shall not be able.
Why?
Because verse 25, 26, 27 saysit, 28 says it.
When, once the master of thehouse is risen up and have shut
(33:41):
the door and you begin to standwithout and To knock at the door
saying Lord, lord, open unto us.
And he shall answer and sayunto you, I know you not whence
you are, then shall you begin tosay we have eaten and Drunk in
(34:02):
thy presence and thou has taughtin our streets.
But he shall say I tell you, Iknow you not whence you are.
Depart from me, all Workers ofiniquity.
There shall be weeping andNashing of teeth when ye shall
see Abraham and Isaac and Jacoband all the prophets in the
(34:25):
kingdom of God and youyourselves Thrust out.
Keep in mind, saints.
In Matthew 24, 11 through 13,it says and many false prophets
shall rise and shall deceivemany, and Because iniquity shall
abound, the love of many shallwax cold, but he that shall
(34:48):
endure unto the end, the sameshall be saved.
Continue to strive, saints.
Continue to strive to enter inat the straight gate that you
won't find yourself on theoutside after the door has been
shut, but endure until the end,because the word of God says
(35:08):
that the same shall be saved.
That's all we have for thisepisode.
