Once again, I will blog in English. The reason is twofold. 1. I will investigate so-called prophetic messages that were given in English, and it makes little sense to cite the original text in one language and then evaluate the word I Swedish. Translating the messages would take too much time to do justice to the nuances. 2. Maybe this will be of benefit to a wider audience.

This article has been updated with a reworked scoring system. (28 April 2025)

I will test “Forty Prophecies for 2023 and Beyond”, by Chris Reed, published on Morningstar Ministries web site December 29, 2022. One reason I chose this word is the fact that I do not need to do the compiling myself. Usually, specific predictions are spread out across several messages and intertwined with non-predictive utterances. Another reason is the clearly defined time-frame. Even though the heading says “2023 and beyond”, the contents for almost every prediction makes the 2024 election the upper boundary for them to apply.

The so-called prophetic predictions were published on the Morningstar website December 28 2022.

The TL;DR version is simple. Reed failed spectacularly. These are clearly not words from the Lord but emanate from his fleshly wishes.

I know that Reed has been disgraced. He has been caught faking prophetic revelations, using social media and other investigative methods to emulate “words of knowledge”. He has also been caught using the prophetic to manipulate women to have sex with him. However, the predictions are still online at Morningstar Ministries, and they provide valuable insight into how the prophetic work in these circles – or rather what a mess it has become!
