How To Tell If A "Word From God" Is Actually From God

What if most of the "prophetic words" floating around online aren't actually from God? Pastor Antonio Barbosa — a prophet of more than thirty years — sits down with Pastor Chris to talk about how to tell the difference. This conversation digs into what prophecy actually is in the New Testament church, why the gift didn't quietly end with the apostles, and where it's been hijacked. Pastor B walks through how to test a prophetic word against Scripture, why every word needs to be judged instead of just applauded, and why the safest place for the prophetic is your local church — not a viral video feed. We also get into how some well-known "prophets" have been caught data-mining social media to fake words of knowledge, the difference between a young gift and a mature one, and what it actually means to commit your life to a word the Lord has spoken over you. Pastor B also shares his own story — the suicide attempt that ended with him hearing the voice of God, and the long, slow road of growing into a prophetic gift he didn't know he had. Scriptures referenced in this episode: 1 Corinthians 14:3, Romans 12, 1 Corinthians 12:4–11, 1 Corinthians 12:28, Ephesians 4:11, Acts 13, 1 John 4:1, 1 Corinthians 14:29, 1 Timothy 1:18, Jeremiah 1:5, Matthew 4:4.

Pastor James

Pastor James Marshall has walked with Jesus for 55 years, and his testimony isn't loud or flashy. It's the story of a shy 13-year-old who picked up a Bible when he was angry, a grown man who got through a broken marriage by staying in the Word and staying around the right people, and a husband whose second marriage has been defined by one thing: peace. In this conversation, James opens up about what it actually takes to walk with God consistently over decades — not perfectly, but faithfully. He talks about the men he keeps around him, why the moment you think you've arrived is the moment you're in trouble, and what it looks like to serve until God reveals your purpose. If you've ever wondered whether the quiet, steady faith is enough — this one's for you. Revelation 12:11 | Luke 9:23 | Proverbs 11:14 | John 20:24–29

The Secret to Longevity: Why you must continue to "date" your spouse through every season—from Saturday morning breakfasts to intentional small gestures of affection.

Resilience is Power

This discussion explores the vital connection between God-fueled resilience and consistent spiritual growth. Apostle Mike and Pastor Amy emphasize that resilience means getting back up after being knocked down—whether by failure, circumstances, or life's challenges. True growth doesn't happen overnight but through consistent, intentional decisions rooted in understanding our identity in Christ. The conversation addresses modern struggles with identity, the epidemic of fatherlessness, and the importance of knowing who we are as sons and daughters of God. They distinguish between selfish and godly ambition, emphasizing that ministry and life success flow from relationship with God rather than duty or obligation. The core message is that when we understand our identity as God's masterpiece and maintain consistency in our walk with Him, we develop the resilience needed to fulfill our divine purpose. Key Points: Resilience is the ability to get back up after being knocked down, not just from failure but from any challenge Growth is measurable over time through comparison with your past self, not with others Consistency comes from revelation—understanding that repeated actions bring results and knowing your identity in God Identity crisis in this generation stems from not knowing who they are in Christ; true identity comes from understanding we are made in God's image The enemy attacks our identity to undermine consistency and purpose Growth requires intentional micro-decisions stacked together over time, like roots growing deep in a tree Relationship with God should be the primary pursuit, not ministry duties or work obligations Commitment is more important than desire; the "feel like it" follows action Shift from "I have to" mentality to "I get to" mentality transforms our walk with Christ Humility is being absolutely at peace with who you are by the grace of God Godly ambition means doing everything wholeheartedly as unto the Lord, planting and watering while God brings the increase Maintaining a childlike curiosity keeps us hungry for more of God's Word
