GUEST SPEAKER WARNING

I HAD A DREAM WHERE GOD SHOWED ME THAT A SPIRIT OF PERVERSION WILL COME IN THROUGH GUEST SPEAKERS IN THIS NEXT SEASON. (Isaiah 19:14)
And the craziest thing was that it came in through someone within the Christian family. Through a trusted source. (Acts 20:30)
I heard the Lord say,
"Steward your own people that I have given you.
I AM revival.
Why do you keep giving the sheep to others?
I want to revive my people, but tell me, why do you constantly choose man over me?
Let me be the guest speaker.
Will you partner with me or man?"
(1 Peter 5:2, Psalm 20:7, Isaiah 2:22)
In this next hour, the Lord will smash our perception of revival, and rebuild it through the one who is revival, His Son, Jesus Christ. (Psalm 127:1, John 11:25)
The Presence of Jesus brings revival, not man. (2 Corinthians 3:17-18)
God is calling our worship of man to fall at His feet, and is asking us to allow Him to purify the pulpits once again with Jesus as the guest speaker through us.
(Romans 1:25, Psalm 24:3-4)
THIS IS A TEST FOR THE BODY OF CHRIST, WHO DO YOU SERVE? GOD OR MAN?
Many have preached and preached and preached, and they are not seeing the breakthrough they desire to see, and so they think bringing in someone who has been doing it longer, has more impact, or maybe a stronger anointing will bring the shift. (Matthew 15:8, Galatians 3:3)
No, it will actually infect your people with a spirit of perversion that you will spend years cleaning up, all because of your LACK of ability and endurance to WAIT UPON THE LORD. (Galatians 5:9, Isaiah 40:31, Psalm 37:7)
DO NOT FOLLOW the crowd, FOLLOW JESUS! (Exodus 23:2, John 10:27)
God is calling us to smash our idol of revival through man, and stop inviting in perversion, labeled as REVIVAL.
If you see everyone having guest speakers, take this as a WARNING...do the opposite!
In these last days, we MUST LAY OUR CROWNS at the feet of Jesus with EVERY decision we make as leaders asking all the questions before giving a yes or extending an invitation.
Should I go minister there?
Should I invite them to speak over my sheep?
Crying out GOD reveal to me the truth of the spirit behind it before I make a move.
And actually waiting upon the Lord before we make a move. Just because they look nice on the outside doesn't mean the spirit behind the voice is good.
(Revelation 4:10-11, 1 John 4:1, 2 Corinthians 11:14)
Jesus says the ELECT will be deceived. He doesn't say they MIGHT BE or COULD BE, He says THEY WILL BE. You will be deceived, it's actually part of the crucifixion process of spiritual pride. However; learn from it and acknowledge that it took you into the next level of your spiritual discernment.
(Matthew 24:24, Hebrews 5:14)
I just want to encourage you to not accept anything, everything, or anybody.
Seek God diligently for the TRUTH. His word promises He will lead you into ALL TRUTH.
(1 Corinthians 16:13, John 8:32)
PRAYER OF REPENTANCE AND RENUNCIATION: IDOLIZATION OF MAN
FATHER,
I come before You with humility and reverence.
I repent for every time I exalted man above You — seeking their approval, trusting their words over Yours, and placing them where only You belong.
Forgive me for idolizing leaders, speakers, influencers, or ministries, and for allowing fear of man to guide my decisions.
Today, I renounce the spirit of idolatry.
I break every agreement I made in my soul that gave man a throne in my heart.
I lay down every crown of admiration, dependence, and misplaced loyalty at Your feet.
Jesus, You are my Shepherd.
You are the voice I follow, the glory I pursue, and the revival I long for.
Purify my heart, cleanse my motives, and make me faithful only to You.
I DECLARE:
I will not follow man. I will follow Jesus.
I will not serve influence. I will serve intimacy.
I will not chase applause. I will chase Your presence.
In the name of YESHUA,
Amen.
