Many people think that the criteria of being A GREAT PROPHET is by performing a big miracle.
That is not true.
John the Baptist performed no signs or miracles (John 10:41),yet Jesus called him the greatest (Matthew 11:11), and he was also called a prophet(Luke 1:76),and Jesus even said John was MORE THAN A PROPHET(Luke 7:26).
Although a prophet can perform miracles by the power of the Holy Spirit, and foretell that isn’t what defines a prophet of God.
Even satan can perform a miracle.
Read 2 Thessalonians 2:8-9.
And being a prophet of God is not just foretelling an event,even satan can foretell the future.
Read Acts 16:16-18.
But what sets apart a prophet of God is that he speaks the words of God,not man.
And because he speaks the words that he gets directly from God,a true prophet of God will always turn people away from their sin.
Because that is God’s greatest concern,the eternal salvation of His people.
A true prophet of God can never just prophesy earthly things without turning people away from sin,that is a false prophet who is only concerned about this earthly life and not salvation.
All the prophets of the Lord in the Bible were hated and killed for this very reason that they spoke the words from the Lord which are meant to turn people from sin and could be offensive to many.
A person who has performed so many miracles,yet watched the people in their sin and could not rebuke them is NOT a prophet of God!
I remember in 2015 the Lord told me that many people whom the world has labelled as “GOD’S GENERALS” are not!
He said to me that the true generals of God,many of them were not even known or famous but they did great exploits for the kingdom of heaven.
To God, speaking His words without fearing people is more important than to perform a miracle yet fail to save the souls.
Miracles and signs are to draw people that they may hear the word of God and repent.
They are not to gain vain glory.
Am not against miracles,I believe in miracles and I have experienced so many miracles in my personal life.
The Lord in His mercy has several times used me to perform instant healing and deliverance.
But God is against miracles and signs being the focus instead of salvation.
You cannot only prophesy earthly things yet fail to speak what is on God’s heart without fearing people.
How can you see all the earthly things to prophesy,yet fail to see how people are drowning in sin,unaware because the preachers are too worried about acceptance and praise from people?
How can you see all those things to prophesy, yet fail to see the sin that is in plain sight and you cannot correct them to tell them what is pleasing to the Lord and to teach them to worship the Lord in holiness?
Then you are being a false prophet and God will require those people’s blood from your hands.
Those people will perish in their sin but their blood will be required from your hands because you were given an opportunity to preach to them yet only preached earthly prosperity and only prophesied earthly things, instead of God’s righteousness.
Anyone who failed to speak against sin,no matter how annointed they seemed,or how many miracles they did,or how many things they foretold,they are a false prophet, not speaking for the Lord.

Any prophet who can perform signs,and even tells you hidden things of the future and those things come to pass,yet they tell you to live in your sin,they are a false prophet,you must run away from to them!
In the old testament the command was to stone them to death despite their prophesy because they turn you away from the Lord to make you worship the idols of this world.

Deuteronomy 13:1-5
“If there arises among you a prophet or a dreamer of dreams, and he gives you a sign or a wonder,
and the sign or the wonder comes to pass, of which he spoke to you, saying, ‘Let us go after other gods’—which you have not known—‘and let us serve them,’
You shall not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams, for the Lord your God is testing you to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
You shall walk after the Lord your God and fear Him, and keep His commandments and obey His voice; you shall serve Him and hold fast to Him.
But that prophet or that dreamer of dreams shall be put to death, because he has spoken in order to turn you away from the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt and redeemed you from the house of bondage, to entice you from the way in which the Lord your God commanded you to walk. So you shall put away the evil from your midst.”

Jeremiah 23:21-22
“I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran. I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied.
But if they had stood in My counsel, And had caused My people to hear My words, Then they would have turned them from their evil way And from the evil of their doings.”
