God's Warning About Astrology

"Therefore shall evil come upon thee; thou shalt not know from whence it riseth: and mischief shall fall upon thee; thou shalt not be able to put it off: and desolation shall come upon thee suddenly, which thou shalt not know. Stand now with thine enchantments, and with the multitude of thy sorceries, wherein thou hast labored from thy youth; if so be thou shalt be able to profit, if so be thou mayest prevail. Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save thee from these things that shall come upon thee." Isaiah 47:11-13
The following is a rather long
testimony, but if you have the heart to consider the word of God and ears to
hear, I pray God will minister to you about the danger of "playing around"
with horoscopes. There is no playing around with the devil; he is out to
destroy you! I see a lot of horoscopes come through on Facebook, and I used
to read them as a girl until I learned that they were an abomination to God.
I stopped reading them, but I didn't know that an evil spirit was associated
with them and had bound me up and was still there even after I stopped.
After I began hearing the gospel preached, God began delivering me of
sorcery from astrology, seances, and the Ouija board that I had done as a
girl. I did not do any of these a lot, but a little of the devil will affect
you!
So, I pray that if you have been involved in things, that you will humble yourself and let God set you free from the powers of darkness that accompany those acts.
Seances are Witchcraft

Labor Day, Steve and I were both off
work, so we decided to spend part of the day cleaning out our garage. When
we started working at about noon, I had a slight headache, but by about 1:30
my head hurt so badly that I couldn’t even think straight; the pressure on
one of my eyes was so intense it was difficult to see clearly, and I had
become very nauseated.
I thought I was overcoming some
stronghold from my childhood related to my mom's stuff that I was cleaning
out, so I kept on working as long as I could, thinking I would press through
it and overcome. But finally somewhere between 1:30 and 2:00, the pain was
so intense that I felt like I was about to throw up. I went in the house,
sat down and just kept binding witchcraft. I could hear Steve out in the
garage binding witchcraft as well. I was extremely ill, dizzy and very weak;
it came on suddenly but was very strong. I decided that I would have a bite
to eat. I put something in the toaster and while I had my back turned, the
toaster caught on fire and quickly the kitchen filled with smoke! Just at
that moment, Steve came into the smoky kitchen; he commented that we were
certainly battling some evil spirit!
I just sat down, I really couldn't do
anything else, and we kept praying. After about 45 minutes I was greatly
improved, just still somewhat dizzy, but I went back out into the garage to
finish going through boxes. Soon I felt fine, but it had been some very
intense hours. We worked until 4:30 and then went and ate dinner before
going to worship.
When we got to the meeting, Doyle told
about being in a great war that afternoon and overcoming a spirit of
witchcraft in a woman. He said it was a spirit of witchcraft from going to
séances as a girl. He also said that many others also had the same bondage.
When I was in elementary school, around
fourth grade, I went to slumber parties at a friend’s house and participated
in séances a couple of times. It seemed pretty silly because no one really
knew what they were doing and it didn’t appear to do much of anything,
nothing happened. I did not even consider that I was inquiring of the devil,
but that’s exactly what it was. We certainly didn’t inquire of God! People
say, "Oh it’s just kid’s stuff," but it was clearly no game how sick I was
when we were cleaning out the garage that day. I was really miserable there
for a while.
When I heard Doyle tell about overcoming
that witchcraft at exactly the same time that I was feeling so ill, and I
knew that I had also participated in séances as a girl, then it was obvious
to me that I had been delivered of that same witchcraft right then when he
was praying. That spirit began manifesting in me as I was being delivered
and it made me extremely ill. As Doyle overcame that spirit, I was set free
by the power of God, and I was completely healed of all that horrible pain!
This is the same thing that happened in
Matthew 8:16:
"When the even was come, they
brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the
spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick:"
When the devil was cast out, then they
were healed.
Jesus said in Matthew 12 that Satan
cannot cast out Satan and that when devils are cast out, the kingdom of God
is come unto you. In I Thessalonians 1, Paul said that the gospel came not
in word only, but also in power. I’m so grateful that God has brought the
gospel, the power of God to us to work in our lives and to deliver us of
things that we may not even know have us bound. I did not know that a spirit
of witchcraft had bound me up, and I'm very grateful that God set me free
before that evil spirit that had me bound could bring further destruction to
my life! If you set your heart on this gospel, it will expose the darkness
in your heart, deliver you and heal you up from it's evil effects. Thank
God!
Isaiah 47 tells of evil coming upon us
because of seeking after all those multitude of counsels that are evil.
Jesus said, Repent (change) and believe the gospel (not all those other
ways)! Ask the Lord to deliver you from any evil you've been involved in so
that the ill effects of them will not bring destruction into your life one
day! Satan comes to steal, kill and destroy, but Jesus came that we might
have life more abundantly. The gospel will bring blessings to your life!!
Thank God!

Note (5/3/2017):
If you ever
participated in any astrology, horoscopes, seances, Ouija Board, tarot
cards, handwriting analysis, palm reading or any other occult practices,
most likely an evil spirit entered into you when you did it. And if you
stopped doing those things, that spirit did not leave you then; you must be
delivered from it by the power of God.
God bless you,
Doyle Davidson
