6 Key PRINCIPLES ON JUDGING CHURCHES AND PROPHETS

Introduction

In one part of scripture the Lord Jesus tells us not to judge each other, in fact, the apostle Paul even says, “who are you to judge another man’s servant.” Yet the same Jesus tells us to beware of false prophets, and the same apostle Paul tells us that there are certain Christians that we need to stop associating with, and certain preachers we must reject. The apostle John even tells us not to greet certain prophets or welcome them into our churches. If we are not to judge others, or to judge the servants of God, what then gives us the right to cast out certain brethren and to stop greeting certain prophets and apostles? There is need to rightly divide the word of God.

Here are three Key principles for judging and testing prophets.

13 Divine Principles on Spiritual Warfare

A Testimony by Charles P. Mawungwa

Introduction

This testimony is a short summary of some of the lessons that God has taught me between 2007 and 2020 through dreams, visions and experiences. My lessons from God have followed a specific pattern. Each lesson starts with me facing a huge challenge that I am unable to overcome. When I am at the end of my wits, I get a dream, vision or experience where I am taught the spiritual-biblical principle of Christ that I must apply. I follow the instructions, and the challenge is immediately overcome.

Since this is a summary and a testimony at that, I will not share much scripture, so it is up to the reader to weigh the things written here against the absolute truths of the bible, and take that which you find useful.

THREE STAGES OF MINISTRY

INTRODUCTION

I have noted three stages of ministry revealed in the New Testament through the lives of the apostles of Christ.

I believe understanding these stages can help a lot of people have direction and understanding of where they are. I know and understand that the Holy Spirit can take us through different routes, but it helps to know these stages anyway.

The three stages of ministry are: Calling, Ordination and finally Commissioning and Empowerment.

There may be more stages than these, but these three are the ones I am going to expound on.

Two Ways to Interpret Dreams and Visions

Introduction

In this teaching I would like to share on two ways that symbolic dreams and visions can be interpreted. For this I will look at two prophets, Daniel and Zechariah, both of which had symbolic visions but functioned in two different ways.

The two ways I will look at are Interpretation by understanding and Interpretation by prophecy. Both ways work through the grace of the Holy Spirit, each with its on strengths and weaknesses.

I will start be looking at the two styles separately then we will compare the benefits of each, then we will look at examples of how to interpret by understanding and lastly, we will answer the question of why God speaks in symbols.

OVERCOMING ATTACKS IN DREAMS

Introduction

Over the past years I have experienced many different types of attacks at night in dreams. I have had recurring dreams of being attacked by snakes, crocodiles, cattle/bulls, cats, bees, dogs, elephants, hyenas, lions, mad men, witch doctors and witches.

In addition to these I have had different kinds of evil spirits manifest in my bedroom to attack me whilst I was awake at night, some I understood to be demons, satanists, fallen angels, mermaids goblins and other spirits I have never figured out what kind they were.

In all these God has given me great victory over the years. Some times I would battle with a certain type of attack for years and then the Lord would come and give me a teaching of what type of attack it was, and how to enter into ultimate victory over it.

The Importance of Scriptures in the life of a Believer

Introduction

So, you believe in Jesus and you love him with all your heart. You are full of the spirit and you hear the voice of God through the inner unction, through dreams, through prophecies by fellow believers or even personal visions and experiences. If God is already speaking to you, why do you need the scriptures?
