A rearview mirror test for Spirit-led claims: look back at past "God told me" moments and evaluate their accuracy

Mike recommends a "rear-view mirror" — revisiting past moments where you claimed God directed you and evaluating whether those proved true. A man who claimed God directed him to marry a woman and move to Mexico was divorced and back in California within a year. The 2020 prophets who declared Trump would win the presidency are a public example requiring the rearview mirror test. Acknowledging yourself as an unreliable source in the past makes you safer to the body of Christ going forward.
