Matthew 7:15 (NKJV) 15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.
It’s sad we have to watch out for this kind of behavior in the church, but Jesus warned us for a reason. He knew that the enemy would stop at nothing to try to deceive us.
The enemy uses counterfeit spirits and counterfeit moves of God to pull us off track.
What does counterfeit mean? To make in exact imitation of something valuable or important with the intention to deceive or defraud.
When the devil wants to deceive us, he will do exactly this. He is going to make his deceitful ways look as much as he can like the real deal. He’s sneaky. And he uses people, even so-called prophets.
It can be very hard to know what he is up to if we try to spot it on our own. But, with the help of the Holy Spirit, it’s a different story.
There have been wonderful ministers, and people in leadership positions that have fallen because of the counterfeit working its way in and taking over.
Pray for the body of Christ today, that we will see what the enemy is up to, through discernment of the Holy Spirit, before it hits us and our church. That together we may stand up in the name of Jesus Christ and deal with it accordingly!
We need to make sure we don’t give the counterfeit, or false prophets, a voice or a place to settle into.
Kick out the enemy, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
