Actually, no it's not. Satan can & has declared or quoted God's word.
To prophesy is to speak for God, when God sends it.
Anointed preaching is indeed prophesying, but those hirelings that preach off the internet & outta books are not.
Amos 8 prophesied to Israel of a famine of the words of the Lord. They would go into captivity & not hear from God.
The 400+ years before John the Baptist was a spiritual famine, with no prophets at all.
Now in the falling away, there's a new famine of hearing the words of the Lord..... false teachers & prophets leading christians astray by the millions because they had no respect for & belittled God's Word. They walk in ignorance purposely, being baby christians & nothing more.
When the time came when they ought to be teachers, they have need again to be taught the first principles.
Now they're getting their just due..... being turned over to a reprobate mind, while still believing they're going to Heaven.
Anointed preachers are still out there, but few want to hear them. Now they are criticized & accused of liberal intolerance.

I would add just one quick thought to this really informative and accurate post. true Prophecy will never ever evvver part from the testimony of Jesus ( the Gospel) meaning if it parts from the principles He taught such as forgiving others, repentance, not judging another, and self sacrificial Love principles.
false prophets and teachers are so many it makes a persons Head spins, popularity and personal Gain two of the most popular motives. and i think alot of christians dont understand how very, very important what we take in and accept really is to our Lives....we fell by a lie, and are saved by the truth. bot came by words that were believed.
