My close ancestry dabbled with palm/tarot reading, Ouija board, tea leaf reading, using Pendulums to see which sex an unborn child might be, and so on. This they thought was all just curious and harmless stuff to play around with. But then didn’t stop to wonder WHY the houses we lived in were all supposedly haunted as they moved home continually all the while the evil spirits just followed us from place to place. I remember sensing evil in every house we lived in, feeling fearful growing up.
30 years of spiritual torment
My early life was ruled by violent crime, alcoholism, drug abuse and depression. A deep-rooted spirit of hopelessness was with me throughout. This chipped away over the years finally leading me to suicidal tendences. Desperate for freedom from which I knew was a serious spiritual problem, I fled to the Amazon jungle to drink potions with an Indian shamanic tribe in 2014. This I then needed deliverance from once I had accepted Jesus as my Lord and Saviour years later. It was then that I got truly set free after 30 years of spiritual torment.
Here are just (some) examples of occult practices: Ouija board/séances, using pendulums or crystals, any involvement with psychic/medium/fortune telling/Tarot cards etc, astrology/horoscopes, numerology, astral projection, Yoga/meditation, hypnosis, Reiki energy healing, Freemasonry and so on….
These practises and many more all have dark spiritual forces behind them, that aim to defile the human soul, especially Christians.
Punishable by death
According to Gods written law these are all acts of witchcraft opening the door for unclean spirits to enter our lives and our family generational lines. This is the same spiritual law being broken here that Jesus came to fulfil. Same law, same God. Jesus who fully incorporates Gods law (Matt 5:17-18) says this- “You shall have no other gods before Me” (Exodus 20:3)
The Lord says He visits the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations. (Exodus 34:6-7) (Deuteronomy 5:8-10)
Witchcraft is so serious a sin in Gods eyes it was punishable by death. “You shall not permit a sorceress to live” (Exodus 22:18)
A man or a woman who is a medium or Spiritist among you must be put to death. You are to stone them; their blood will be on their own heads.” (Leviticus 20:27)
Jesus cried out on the cross just before breathing His last “tetelestai” (It is finished) He had been given full authority in Heaven and on the earth Matthew 28:18
Broken and cast out
That means as believers, every sin brought to the foot of the cross through forgiveness and repentance in Jesus’ name will be forgiven, and every curse and every unclean spirit linked to that sin will be broken and cast out.
