Spiritual Things

Is it a wonder that there is overwhelming evidence of good and evil spiritual power in our world?

Paganism and witchcraft are out-growing any other religion on earth.

I heard this morning (on Jan Markell's radio program) a clip of a witch in New York being interviewed about his hexes on Brett Kavanaugh, the supreme court nominee.

The statistics show that there are thousands of covens. Just Google "how many covens are there?" and see what comes up on your search suggestions.

Are these people all delusional about spiritual power?

Paganism is clearly attractive to many people, those formerly "christian," (I define this as someone who attended a church that has a cross on it in some form, and probably grew up in a family that attended, regularly or on occasion, a church with a cross.) to those who long for more meaning than strict humanism.

Spiritual power is attractive.

I find it the most compelling thing in my life. My relationship with YWHW is the most important thing to me. I experience spiritual power every single day.

I've tried to share this relationship with my family, my friends, those I've met---anyone who will listen! But there is a very wide gap between the spiritual life and the mundane physical one.

It has been bridged, and spiritual forces on both sides (evil and good) have made remarkable contacts.

The deniers we will always have with us. Those that have not seen the other side have no choice but to deny it.

But more and more are seeing the side of spiritual evil, and that concerns me. The deception of the dark spirits has never been so powerful! Millions, if not billions, of people are drawn to the dark spirits.

Our world is not just a place of unbelief versus Christian spirituality. There is so much more to confuse. Satan has the power over this world, he was given it by God, and he is the father of lies, the master deceiver. He has people believing all sorts of deceptions and deviants from the truth. His goal isn't to get people believing in him, per say, just anything other than Christ Jesus; the way, the truth, and the life. If you don't believe in anything, Satan is just a-okay with that!

The dark spirits are powerful to an extent. They can manifest, they have greater knowledge than we have. They have the power to manipulate things and even control those who have no greater power from God.

Dark spirits won't bother you if you have set beliefs against God. They will gladly respond to any interest shown them, and they will harass those whose ancestors had a deeper relationship with them.

They love to morph with the times. In the Bible they were known has demons. In ancient cultures they were gods and goddesses. In the Dark Ages they were fairies, elves, brownies, ----all those "little" characters. Sometimes they masked as good entities. Deception was always their modus operandi. Now they routinely manifest as extra-terrestrials: Tall whites, grays, reptilians, aquamen, nephilim, super powers, avatars, etc.

Although there is evidence of "extra-terrestrial" phenomena in ancient art, the reality is that this phenoma has never changed much through time. Demons manifest occasionally. Sometimes they deceive by being "good." Witchcraft, though many who practice it deny this, has much to do with contact with demons. Those who are in the pagan religions always believe in the "good" spirits, until it gets to the level of Satanism.

Then it is about all-out evil power.

Extra-terrestrial activity is demonic. There are, and always have been orders of spiritual beings. Thankfully I am not concerned with evil orders, but I have read numerous accounts of those that have contact with the different types of beings.

God's messengers, the angels that did not fall, rarely manifest these days, if at all. They are certainly around us, as helpers, doing the righteous will of God. They are unlike the deceivers of Lucifer, head of the fallen orders.

We are warned to test the spirits in Scripture, and this is more important today than ever before. Spiritual warfare is ramping up, and we are in the thick of it.  Deception is all around us! How in the world do we forge ahead? Simply by honing in on God's Word, the Bible. If we spend time in God's word we are promised that it will be a lamp to our feet and a light to our path. We can stand on this path with confidence, knowing that the Holy Spirit will guide us in truth, and RIGHTEOUSNESS.

IF you are living in sin (sexual or any other type of sin) you are unable to stand in that confidence.
Repent! Turn away from it. Ask God to forgive you!

Wake up to the spiritual forces that are watching you even at this moment. Command the evil ones to depart in Jesus' powerful name. Be filled with the Holy Spirit, to walk in paths of righteousness for His name's sake.

We are at war. Humble yourself before God and let Him open your eyes to the realm of the spiritual.
You need Christ, and the battle is only going to get stronger.

Denying that there is a spiritual realm is feeding the dark side. You will experience the spiritual at some point, probably your death, but it won't be what you imagined. The Bible describes exactly what you will experience at death. If you believe Scripture you have a decided advantage. You CAN know.

The Word of God is truth. It is a weapon of good in this battle of forces. Get to know your "sword of the spirit."
