solemate: Most of them are pure lies

ACNBB: ....We all don’t have crystal balls to see into our future, so we generally work by faith and instinct. With that said, how has prophecies from pastors or prayer warriors affected your life in the past?

I personally believe that once we hear from someone, our thoughts and actions are somewhat skewed either in a positive or negative way because there is so much power in words. And if you haven't encountered any....please do not pay attention! Just pray and ask God for directions.

So do you believe in prophecies about life issues (e.g. career, marriage and so on), how do these pastors have the power to see into the future to determine what is right or wrong for someone? Sometimes when my mind is godly (state we all long to be), I pray and ask God to show me things in dreams and he does. But dang! I feel there are so many prophecies going around these days! (Well, when you decide to pay attention).

I have friends who go through lives moments with prophecies from different pastors and it’s quite disheartening. In my opinion, it’s almost same as visiting a psychic to predict what next (which I feel is evil). I may be totally wrong with my outlook on prophecies but what’s your take on it?

brodalikeme: Biblical prophesies has had alot of positive effect on my life. Though I don't accept things just becos there from 'a bible carrying man'. It is always best to weigh the prophesy against the Word of God in the bible, then secondly check under what authority the prophet is even speaking- his or God

pDude: Some years ago after NYSC, I started job hunting. My pastor was a big boy in one of the international banks which has its branches in Nigeria.

One Sunday, he was prophesying that he sees many cars being parked outside. Me sef dey scatter 'amen' like mad man. Oh boy, if una see suffer wey my eye see after that time, una go fear.

I wonder till today how my own car never materialized to the parking lot outside the church.

Prophesy my anus

ajasa4link: I grew up in a church where we strictly adhere to prophecies and we are also told stories of how people disregard prophecies and get punished for it. Despite all this,when i was of age and started reading a lot of books both theist and atheist books,i began to have some doubts when i receive some prophecies and i try as much to distinguish between the truth and made-up prophecies. But last semester,when i was in school, my fellowship president read out a prophecy that someone within the fellowship has committed a murder i.e an abortion has been carried out and the lord has been been greatly vexed. We were all told to close our eyes and the pastor asked whoever d person is to come out... To my surprise,a girl cried out where she was,and i was marvelled that what she did in secrecy was revealed by d spirit of God to the pastor... Since then,i've then cast away all doubts and i have great respect for prophecies that are not laden with falsity

obisage: being a Jehovah's Witness is the best thing that has ever hapoened to me.... being a Witness will open ur eyes to all this fakes prophets everywhere and also draw u close to God...

Sometimes i pity anybody who is not a witness....

boron10:

Bia guy, i'm not doubting the genuity of the prophesy, but does it not occur to you that in a large church especially one in campus environment there'll will be high chance of getting it right if one should predict that abortion has been commited?
