When your steps are ordered by God, He proves you through the manifestation of His Word.
Jeremiah 28:7-9 But listen now to the solemn words I speak to you in the presence of all these people. The ancient prophets who preceded you and me spoke against many nations, always warning of war, famine, and disease. So a prophet who predicts peace must carry the burden of proof. Only when his predictions come true can it be known that he is really from the Lord."

I can understand why some people take issue when I speak in certain terms; yet God instructs all of HIS prophets/messengers to: "Go and tell My people 'THUS SAID THE LORD.'" So then, when you do not, or rather cannot legitimately qualify the prophecy in that way, you are speaking out of your own will and imagination: Thus, God has not sent you. Indeed, it js the one whom He has NOT sent whom He forbids to speak - in His name. God's message is, more often than not, wrought of warning. Again, He proves HIS prophets/messengers through manifestations. I invite you to check my record against His predictions:
Flood When God told me to speak flood, there were 52 ft. of rainfall in this city.
Plague When He said speak plague, I admittedly didn’t understand that, because I had never experienced a plague, so I spoke disease and inoculation. BUT GOD knew exactly what He meant, and He meant what He said: worldwide sickness.
Famine (somewhat, but nothing like what’s to come) Because of the flood and subsequent plague, most may have been in their cars, but still people were lined up for miles to receive food.
I speak of these things, not to exalt myself, accused, but simply to acknowledge His Word.
Neither the things of God nor His Word can be manipulated (corrupted); BUT GOD will use man's vain attempts to bring His Word to pass. Such was the case recently. Because of such attempted manipulation, I was recently forced to find alternative sleeping arrangements. Quite by default, l found myself sleeping under the bridge, but not just any bridge, rather the very one shown in the dream I had many many years ago. God is truly bringing His Word to pass in this city. He has made some concession for His church, still: "O Jacob (church) I can not allow you to go completely unpunished." There is no such concession for the city; she must bear her full punishment.
The only thing that changes the latter end, from a remnant standpoint, is repentance, turning, and restoration. The same as you desire when others wrong you, the way we have wronged God.
Ezekiel 33:14 "'On the other hand, if I tell a wicked person, "You'll die for your wicked life," and he repents of his sin and starts living a righteous and just life—being generous to the down-and-out, restoring what he had stolen, cultivating life-nourishing ways that don't hurt others—he'll live. He won't die. None of his sins will be kept on the books. He's doing what's right, living a good life. He'll live.
