False Prophets 101 - Wolves in Sheeps Clothing

Since the Lord called me out of my regular life, to go on a journey for Him, to learn of Him, and to learn how to be close to Him and how to obey His Will for my life, I have believed and been deceived by several false prophecies. One of the main reasons I was deceived is because the people who made the false prophecies were (who I thought) high caliber believers filled with the Holy Spirit.

When I first started out on this journey back in 2008, the Lord told me to stock up on food. So I had my car filled with dried beans and coffee and little green propane bottles for cooking. But as the journey progressed, the Lord revealed that the food He was talking about, was not physical food, but spiritual. He wanted me to stock up on His Word in my mind so that I would be able to recognize if something was false. (This is what happened in my life. If the Lord has told you to stock up on physical food, by all means obey. I firmly believe that a person should have some extra food on hand for emergencies anyway - a prudent man prepares himself. Seek the Lord's will for yourself and your life.)

Many times in my life as a believer, the Lord has shown me the false (and I believed it) before He revealed that it was false and led me to the true doctrines. The bottom line is, it won't matter what doctrines we believe or not, but whether we obey what we do know. With the plethora of false doctrines out there it is very hard not to know what to do or what to believe. Especially as the prophecies get more and more outlandish.

I am not posting these things to bash anyone or to point any fingers. I highly respect my fellow believers who may have also been deceived like I was. Some of the things I will be posting about in the coming days, may be situations that you will recognize - but I will be talking about them for a reason and not to tear down brothers who may out of their own presumption or sometimes enthusiasm, have made false prophecies. One of the very first things Christ said when asked about the times to come was "Be not deceived."

I believe that each of us should seek the Lord for ourselves. To make sure that we are living our lives according to His will, and to seek the Truth from Him and not believe everything you read on the internet - including this website. Check things for yourself and with the Lord. Definately pray about these things. If you are not yet born again, or want to know more about Jesus, please email me at wendyworn@yahoo.com and I can direct you to some resources or may be able to help answer questions. It doesn't take a prophecy to know we are in dark days - just read the newspaper or watch the news. The whole world lies in the wicked one. Now is the time to make Jesus your savior and to seek the Lord with all your heart, soul, mind and strength.

There are some wonderful teachings that may help prepare you. Two from Zac Poonen are:

Intro to Prophecy
False Prophets And The Broad Way

There are more from Zac Poonen and prophecy here.

Ironically, as I was thinking about how I was going to address this issue Omega Ministries came out with some excellent teaching on the Sprit of Divination or Python that I definately recommend listening to:

Python part 1
Python part 2

More audio messages from Omega Ministry are here.

Dear Heavenly Father, please be with us as we walk by Your Spriit in this evil and preverse world. Please help us to discern between true prophecies and false ones so that we can know what Your Will is for our lives. In Jesus name. Amen.

Powerchords????

I have no desire to learn powerchords or play nirvana songs! But my teacher josephkim is teaching these in lesson three here. I believe the Lord wants me to go ahead and learn them because it takes a LOT of stretching these stubby fingers of mine to make these chords. If I can make powerchords, making the G chord will be a piece of cake.

The Lord has also been showing me the many verses in His Word where musicians were playing as praise and worship. If I learn how to play the guitar, the Lord can fill me with His Spirit to write and play original worship songs. Also, it was interesting that David used music for spiritual warfare against the evil spirit within Saul. I believe it will be important in my life later on. In the meantime, powerchords it is.

Craziness

The world is going crazy, and so are my imaginary internet friends. I would like to say more on the issue, but I have run out of time today. Tomorrow is very busy with house stuff, not sure when I can post again. Will try soon.

Pray to the Father for discernment, and repent of any sin you have in your life. Now is the time to get right with God.

A little acoustic guitar for Tuesday

(This is not me guys! I found this video on you-tube and thought it was excellent. I have a while before I am that good!)

Looking for His Appearing

There is some interesting studies from J. Preston Eby that I think you might like to take a look at. But before you do, pray to the Father that you can know what the Truth of His Word has to say, and not the traditions of men.

LOOKING FOR HIS APPEARING

Happy President's Day!

Down Time

Some days, are just quiet.

Yesterday my mom and I, my two sisters and two nieces, went to the little cupcake shop for a bit of a girl's day out. It was fun and very yummy. Then we walked around some of the little vintage shops, just looking at stuff. It was a nice time to visit and very relaxing.

Today, seems very quiet. I practiced the guitar, (I know 4 chords now! Not that I know yet what to do with them. Also, I found out that you can hold the guitar on your left leg when playing the classical guitar instead of the right leg, so that your leg holds the guitar instead of your left hand, which was why I could not make the chords. Every time I successfully make a chord, I thank the Lord again. I was so sure it would be impossible for me.) took my walks, listened to Zac Poonen and spent some time in the Word.

I've been watching cooking shows on tv. Yes. I know that tv is evil, but I have been learning so much about herbs and spices and how to cook meat from Rachel Ray and OMG Jamie Oliver who is like a crazy super genius when it comes to cooking. My mom and I have tried some of his recipes and did not know that food could taste so good! I think my learning how to cook, is also from the Lord. I mean, you guys don't know me. Everyone, including my kids and me, believed that I was incapable of cooking. (You know, except for tacos, spaghetti, and mac and cheese, but who can't cook those things!) I use to pray that my next husband was a chef, who was praying this very minute for a woman who loved washing the dishes. (seriously - I do love washing dishes, but don't ask me how I feel about cleaning the bathroom.)

They say that children grow physically, when they are asleep. Like I was telling you before about this house, I think the Lord works on us, when it is quiet and it does not seem like anything is happening in our lives.

Thank you so much, my wonderful heavenly Father. For the amazing peace and quiet I am feeling when the rest of the world is in such extreme chaos. Thank you for always loving me, always meeting every single need, so that I have want of nothing. Thank you for teaching me how to cook, how to play the guitar, how to have faith in You and trust you in everything, and how to be Your daughter. Thank you so much, in Jesus name. Amen.
