STUDY XV. THE WEAPONS OF OUR WARFARE

 



OCCULTIC ITEMS


When apostle Paul preached in Ephesus, many who practiced magic brought their books together and burnt them. 

When they got converted, they burnt everything that belonged to occult and witchcraft. But Why? Because if they kept these items, the devil would have used them as a legal ground to attack them. 

Jesus said that the devil could not find anything belonging to him. Nothing in character nor what he possessed. John 14:30


Achan, took an accursed thing and hid it in the days of Joshua. Joshua didn't know and when they went to fight with a small town Ai, they were defeated before them. Joshua 7:1-15


Joshua sought answers from God for the reason for defeat yet God had promised him victory. This should always be our response when what God has promised seems to fail. Seek God to open your eyes to know where the door has been opened.

 

God told Joshua that Israel had sinned for taking an accursed item. 

Joshua 7:12Therefore the sons of Israel cannot stand before their enemies; they turn their backs before their enemies, for they have become accursed. I will not be with you anymore unless you destroy the accursed things from your midst.


After removing the accursed thing from their midst, God gave them victory over their enemies.


Therefore, if there is something accursed, such as witchcraft item, occultic items, magic, even if they look innocent or you received them as a gift, you must destroy them and remove them from your house otherwise you will not overcome the enemy if you try to resist him. You have opened doors for him and you must close them. 

Don't give the devil a legal ground through such items. Burn them.


You are blessed to be a blessing
