Testing Prophecy

Do not despise prophecies. Test all things; hold fast what is good. Abstain from every form of evil (1 Thessalonians 5:20-21).
The End Times Blog is a prophetic voice of the work of God He is doing before the end of times. Since 2002, when I began to receive revelation from the Lord, I have been writing articles to inform the people of the world about what God is doing in our communities. As a result, many people who have read the prophecies, have arisen to utter the prophecies on their websites, and social media, and have written books calling themselves "prophets". Others do not know who is a prophet and who isn't and do not know who to believe as a spoken person of God.
I learned from Jesus that there are true and false prophets, Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits (Matthew 7:15-16). False prophets will not produce good fruits. "You will know them by their fruits" means you'll know them by the doctrine they preach. Their doctrine is a demonic one producing lies and decepcion to gain the praises and glory of men.
During my walk with God, I had to test the prophecy of many people and I can tell that testing staged prophecy is not an easy task to perform among true and false Christian members of the church of God. Testing good and evil is to be done in the spirit as opposed to the flesh.
Testing prophecy is a very important task to perform before God. In (l Thessalonians 5:19-22). Because of the sensitivity of where a prophetic message comes from, Jesus counsels us to not reject prophecies but to test them rather. Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world (I John 4:1).
True prophets are servants of God. They are seers of visions, which are revelations of the will of God. They also receive the revelation of the written word of the Lord (the bible), they interpret it and know it, as well as understand it with wisdom. Furthermore, true prophets are interpreters of dreams from God as well as deliverers of messages within the boundaries of His prophetic Word (the Bible) which was inspired by Himself. Moreover, when true prophets, men, or women, are called by God to speak on His behalf, they are His representatives on earth. When true prophets speak for God, it is as if God were speaking.
There is more than one thing that I, myself keep in mind and do to test prophecy, especially uttered prophecies from the Lord related to the End Times.
1. God chooses His prophets to reveal His secrets to. Surely the Lord God does nothing, unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets (Amos 3:7).
2. False prophets don't practice the doctrine of the Lord. They practice the doctrine of demons and hypocrisy (Mark 7:5-7), which is like a leaven of bread (Matthew 16:5-12). Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron (1 Timothy 4:1-2).
3. Discerning is a function of testing staged prophecy. Decerning the authenticity of prophecy and the time in which it is being uttered is without doubt a necessary task to perform. Discerning deception in the church of God may be understood by the reader (Acts 13:1-12). Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedence. Therefore do not be partakers with them. For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), finding out what is acceptable to the Lord (Galatians 5:6-10).
4. Communicate with God through prayer to ask Him if the person speaks from their own heart or the words of His mouth. This is challenging. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:6-7).
5. A true prophet doesn't prophecy on behalf of the Lord every week or every month. For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept,
Line upon line, line upon line,
Here a little, there a little.” For with stammering lips and another tongue
He will speak to this people,
To whom He said, “This is the rest with which
You may cause the weary to rest,”
And, “This is the refreshing”;
Yet they would not hear.
But the word of the Lord was to them,
“Precept upon precept, precept upon precept,
Line upon line, line upon line,
Here a little, there a little,”
That they might go and fall backward, and be broken
And snared and caught (Isaiah 28:10-13).6. The End Time World Events prophesized must be scriptural. This means that it must line up with the Holy Scriptures. And the prophet, himself must be living the prophetic events written in the bible. Declaring the end from the beginning, and I will do all My pleasure (Isaiah 46:10). And He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding. He reveals deep and secret things; He knows what is in the darkness, and light dwells with Him (Daniel 2:21-22).
7. The word of God (the Bible) must define how many are the prophets whom the world events have been revealed to by God Himself. For example, in the world events that developed during the times of Abraham, there was no other prophet than him through whom God was speaking and prophesizing (Genesis 20:7); (Genesis 12:1-20 - 25:1-10).
Not all people who prophecy is a true prophet. False prophets do both, utter the prophecy of others as their prophecy, and do not glorify God but themselves.
8. If there is a prophet of a prophet, he must be appointed by God as He appointed Aaron as Moses' prophet. So the Lord said to Moses: "See, I have made you as God to Pharaoh, and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet... (Exodus 7:1).
9. Prophecy glorifies Jesus, not the prophet (John 16:14). ...when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you (John 16:13-14).
10. True prophets aren't subject to themselves but to the Lord Jesus. ...the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets (1 Corinthians 14:32). I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren who have the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy (Revelations 19:10).
11. True prophets teach truth and call unrighteous people to repentance. When the messengers of John had departed, He began to speak to the multitudes concerning John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind? But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Indeed those who are gorgeously appareled and live in luxury are in kings’ courts. But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet. This is he of whom it is written: ‘Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, who will prepare Your way before You. For I say to you, among those born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist (Matthew 11:24-28).
12. False prophets kill those who persecute them. The second commandment of the Lord says that you should not murder (Exodus 20:13), bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse. Repay no one evil for evil (Romans 12:14-17).
Evidently in the video, Evangelist Anita Rivera Fuentes (aka Anita Martir Rivera) threatens to kill those who persecute her. Murder is a work of the flesh and those who practice such thing will not inherit the kingdom of God (Galatians 5:19-21). Unless the prophet is a king, a prince/princess, and thus a ruler, he can kill in times of war.
I was able to test Evangelist Anita Rivera Fuentes' prophecy and found that she prophesizes my prophecy as hers and calls herself a "prophet" saying that hers is the original World End Times News Website and that I prophesy her prophecy. Do not allow prophet Ana Rivera Fuentes deceive you.
13. True prophets are prophetic counselors of the word of the Lord. Now it was so, after Amaziah came from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the people of Seir, set them up to be his gods, and bowed down before them and burned incense to them. Therefore the anger of the Lord was aroused against Amaziah, and He sent him a prophet who said to him, “Why have you sought the gods of the people, which could not rescue their own people from your hand?” So it was, as he talked with him, that the king said to him, “Have we made you the king’s counselor? Cease! Why should you be killed?” Then the prophet ceased, and said, “I know that God has determined to destroy you, because you have done this and have not heeded my advice” (1 Chronicles 25:14-16).
14. God is a God of timing and the prophecy uttered by the prophet must come to happen in the timing of the Lord. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end, it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry (Habakkuk 3:3). To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven (Ecclesiastes 3:1-8).
15. If a prophecy doesn’t come from God, it will fall to the ground. It will never come to happen. So Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him and let none of his words fall to the ground (1 Samuel 3:19).
True prophets are simply faithful to God. They speak what comes out of the mouth of the Lord and their counsel is based on what He says and what is written in His word (the bible).
