Warfare <strong>and</strong> Deliverance—New Insight 139<br />
It is very scary to see how much <strong>of</strong> the occult <strong>and</strong> New Age has moved<br />
into the local church. Things such as chanting, meditation, sitting in the<br />
lotus (crossed legged position in Yoga) position, <strong>and</strong> even things like<br />
crystal ball reading <strong>and</strong> praying to the dead! Be very careful friend to<br />
know the Bible for yourself <strong>and</strong> have a relationship with the Holy Spirit<br />
for yourself so that you will be able to discern when things are <strong>of</strong>f. This<br />
is one reason why it is so important to have teachings like this. It<br />
teaches people what to avoid.<br />
If you will go all the way with God to rid your life <strong>of</strong> anything occult, you<br />
will find his blessing. After King Solomon, a king by the name <strong>of</strong> Jeroboam<br />
took reign in Samaria <strong>of</strong> Israel. This story is recorded in 1Kings<br />
1114. Jeroboam erected demonic altars <strong>and</strong> golden calves in Dan<br />
(farthest area north) <strong>and</strong> Bethel (farthest area south) so that Israel<br />
would not have to obey God <strong>and</strong> come all the way to Jerusalem to<br />
worship God. Also, the worship that took place at these places was not<br />
to God, but rather they burned incense <strong>and</strong> killed sacrifices to other<br />
gods (demons). All the kings after Jeroboam continued to follow this.<br />
Even many kings that followed God still allowed these things to remain,<br />
<strong>and</strong> God was not pleased with it. The only kings to go so far as<br />
to remove all the occult was Hezekiah <strong>and</strong> Josiah. They removed all<br />
the idolatry <strong>and</strong> occult from the l<strong>and</strong>. They were very righteous men<br />
<strong>and</strong> God was pleased with them for being that radical in their faith. Are<br />
you willing to be that radical? Are you willing to go all the way with<br />
God? God loves radical faith <strong>and</strong> radical obedience to him. We must<br />
be different than the world <strong>and</strong> willing to fully obey God.<br />
Pagan <strong>and</strong> occult influence<br />
Many Christians really don’t realize how much they might allow in<br />
things that are pagan as well. This can also bring a curse <strong>and</strong> oppression<br />
if one is not careful. Let me give you examples. Satan purposely<br />
comes in a way that seems so innocent in regard to the occult. He<br />
makes occult cartoons <strong>and</strong> packages things in a way that seems to be<br />
without pr<strong>of</strong>anity or nudity. He does this coming as the angel <strong>of</strong> light to<br />
deceive many. Please do not be unaware <strong>of</strong> satan’s schemes. Now<br />
please read this whole section without getting <strong>of</strong>fended <strong>and</strong> tuning me<br />
out. I know that not all <strong>of</strong> these things have to be the sole property <strong>of</strong><br />
satan, but we at least need to know where it comes from <strong>and</strong> let the<br />
Lord tell us if we need to change some things in our lives.<br />
Halloween is a satanic pagan holiday that celebrates death <strong>and</strong> should<br />
not be celebrated in any form by Christians. It is not a Christian holiday,<br />
but it is celebrated by occultists as their new year. It was originally<br />
the witches’ response to All Saints Day which was observed annually
