I have been with people who said God has spoken to me about this and that yet in actual sense God hasn’t spoken to them either
There are people who say they are prophesying to people that have not been actually sent by the Lord. They are like Shemiah the nehelamite who said that The Lord had spoken to him on how Zephaniah should replace Jehoidah which was thus a total lie and a predicament of false prophecy Jeremiah 29:25-27
[25]Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Because you have sent letters in your [own] name to all the people who are in Jerusalem and to Zephaniah son of Maaseiah the priest and to all the priests, saying,26]The Lord has made you [Zephaniah] priest instead of Jehoiada the [deputy] priest, that you should have oversight in the house of the Lord over every madman who makes himself a prophet, that you should put him in the stocks and collar.[27]Now therefore [continued the letter from Shemaiah in Babylon to Zephaniah in Jerusalem], why have you not rebuked Jeremiah of Anathoth, who makes himself a prophet to you?

c) What was God’s judgement concerning the man in view as a result of telling people that which was not from the mouth of the Lord ?
d) What would be some of your comments in view as replaced
