Jeremiah 14:14 

Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.

It is good to have a vision for your life – to have some idea of where you are headed whether in business or everyday life. We do have to stay alert though and test the spirits to know whether our visions are false.

If you get a vision, pray about it. Ask God to reveal to you whether this is a true vision sent from him, or is it a false vision. False visions will always lead you away from God. True visions will lead you closer to God.

There are many false prophets out there who say that they receive visions in God’s name and it is just not true. Never take one person’s word about such things. Always test the spirits. If you read the Bible, you will see that usually whenever God’s people received a vision, it was always reinforced by it being shown twice and sometimes three times.
