In Red Church today, Joseph Z teaches about the four prophetic flows, outlining the characteristics of real prophets and how to identify false prophets.
Joseph outlines four prophetic categories: Roeh (the visionary), Nabi (the bubbling up), Chozeh (peering into the future), and Chazah (the gaze). He describes the different types of prophets: real, false, and novice. He reveals that real prophets are characterized by being Bible-based, generous, and humble. In contrast, false prophets are the opposite; they are pseudo-Bible, rebellious, greedy, prideful, and may exhibit a false sense of humility.Â

He goes on to explain how to identify novice prophets. Although they possess a gift, novices often go in the wrong direction because their gift can inflate their ego, leading them to believe they are more than they are. This group may be talented but lacks training and often feels isolated. Joseph warns that novices can drift into a grey area that resembles witchcraft, where they operate based on the mechanisms of their souls, such as believing they are manifesting their desires. He emphasizes that only the Word of God can redeem those caught in this confusing part of the prophetic.
Furthermore, Joseph cautions against making decisions based on feelings, as the devil can manipulate emotions. Instead, he encourages walking in God's Word, which represents truth and love. He also notes that a false prophet can find redemption if they are open to rebuke, refocus on God’s Word, and grow progressively toward the light in thirty, sixty, or even a hundredfold.
