And the LORD said to me, "The prophets prophesy lies in My name. I have not sent them, commanded them, nor spoken to them; they prophesy to you a false vision, divination, a worthless thing, and the deceit of their heart.
Jeremiah 14:14

The last person you want to be is a person who claims to speak for God, but does not speak what God says. That person is a false prophet and that person will have Hell to pay on Judgment day.

The second to the last person you want to be is the person who listens to false prophets and embraces their lies. God not only pronounces judgment on the false prophets in (v.15):

Jeremiah 14:15 Therefore thus says the LORD concerning the prophets who prophesy in My name, whom I did not send, and who say, 'Sword and famine shall not be in this land'—'By sword and famine those prophets shall be consumed!

God also has a few choice words for those who follow the false prophets in (v.16):

Jeremiah 14:16 And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword; they will have no one to bury them—them nor their wives, their sons nor their daughters—for I will pour their wickedness on them.'

This is a stark reminder that we are responsible to test the prophets, listen to those who legitimately speak for God and have nothing to do with those who tickle people’s ears for the sake of popularity as they tickle ears with lies.
