When Prophecies Fail: A Practical Response to the Voice of God

by Kirby Clements Sr.

What happens when we receive prophetic promises, decrees or proclamations concerning finances, relationships, occupations, ministries, and physical welfare? We wait in anticipation for their fulfillment, trusting in what we believe is a divine or inspired word. However, when a prophetic word fails to come to pass, we may begin to question the message, the messenger or worse, Divine existence. In this work, Dr. Clements explores the various reasons for the failure of many end-time predictions and personal prophecies. He sheds light on the relationship between prophecies and personal convictions, beliefs, expectations, and behavior. The section on personal prophecies offers helpful insight on prophetic language and meanings while examining the role of human procrastination, suspicion, desire, and misunderstanding. Ultimately, we come to understand that there is no question about Divine interaction in human affairs; the main issue is one of interpretation.
