Jeremiah 28:9 But the prophet who prophesies peace will be recognized as one truly sent by the Lord only if his prediction comes true.
Have you noticed how many things seem to be going wrong at the moment around the world? How many news channels are telling us the good things instead of focusing on the bad? Not a lot!
Hananiah delivered the message of peace coming to the land and nobody wanted to hear it because so many bad things were happening then too.
When the good times came, people looked back and knew then God had sent Hananiah.
We need to stick to the truth and keep telling it, no matter what goes on around us...
