"The Truth About Necromancy"

The Truth About Necromancy

We live in a supernatural age when God will demonstrate His ability to reveal and communicate and His power to heal and deliver.  However we live in a world where people are hungry for the paranormal.  Be very careful not to seek other sources outside of God through Jesus Christ.  You should only want to see what the Holy Spirit has revealed and hear what He has spoken.    

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.  But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.  To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.  And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him:  they know his voice.  And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him:  for they know not the voice of strangers.

Believer from reading your bible, you will become more familiar with the voice of God. You will also be more keen to the strangeness of the voice of a stranger.

No other source should take the place of God when seeking  guidance.  The Word of God is our guide, the "blessed" delight in the Word.  (Ps. 1)

Although God loves to communicate.  He will not be manipulated, as many of us are, into answering a question He has either already answered or that he is requiring that you wait on an answer for.   If you have not developed the fruit of the spirit in your life and if your loyalty to God is not solid you just may seek an answer elsewhere. 

Recently McDonald's  supposedly planned coming out with a Happy Meal containing a Ouija Board.  This is now said to have been a joke.  Let me tell you what is not a joke.  Children every day are being desensitized, oppressed and even demonically possessed by video game activities that have a demonic origin, Ouiji boards and other paraphernalia that in the long run does more harm them good. 

"What does the Bible say about necromancy?"

Answer: Necromancy is defined as the conjuring of the spirits of the dead for purposes of magically revealing the future or influencing the course of events. In the Bible, necromancy is also called “divination,” “sorcery” and “spiritism” and is forbidden many times in Scripture (Leviticus 19:26; Deuteronomy 18:10; Galatians 5:19-20; Acts 19:19) as an abomination to God. It is something that the Lord speaks very strongly against and is to be avoided as much as any evil. The reason for this is twofold.

First, necromancy is going to involve demons and opens the one who practices it to demonic attack. Satan and his demons seek to destroy us, not to impart to us truth or wisdom. We are told that our “enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour” (1 Peter 5:8). Second, necromancy does not rely on the Lord for information, the Lord who promises to freely give wisdom to all who ask for it (James 1:5). This is especially telling because the Lord always wants to lead us to truth and life, but demons always want to lead us to lies and serious damage.

The idea that dead people’s spirits can be contacted for information is false. Those who attempt such contact inevitably contact demonic spirits, not the spirits of dead loved ones.  Therefore, seeking the dead is unnecessary and very dangerous.

My prayer is that the Believers become more keen to the cunning plans of the enemy and enlighten our children and those who may dismiss it or not take it seriously.  In an attempt to be helped and blessed, let us not violate other principles.  Let us seek God in Spirit and in Truth.  May prayer is that a generation be taken from underneath the deception of the enemy.

You see, God loves to communicate and if you ask Him, you will receive an answer.  (Mt. 7:7) The bible says:  "Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show you great and mighty things, which you know not." (Jer. 33:3)

Answer:  Wait on the Lord and be of courage and he will strengthen thine heart.  Wait I say on the Lord.

(Ps. 27:14; Deut. 6:5)
