Do not be over zealous to probe into evil matters. To appear knowledgeable or to have a curiosity about the demonic, will lead to spiritual death. Be curious about God, or HIS Biblical miracles. Only doom awaits those who eagerly pursue evil methods, such as tarot cards, secret religions, and witchcraft. There is no gained advantage or appearance of being wise in doing so. This allows a passageway for evil to enter into the minds of the curious. We are warned in Scripture about being turned over to a reprobate mind when we “do not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God”.
We are watching a decline of morality throughout the world. Since many have curiosity of the things of darkness, “God gave them up to doing everything their evil minds could think of.” Because men could conceive methods to steal human organs, traffic souls, cage children, and live out perverted impulses, did not mean they were free to engage in such behavior. An unprincipled act leads to a shameless continuance of actions.
There are doctors who create illness, dentist that extract or fill cavities that you do not have. Pharmaceuticals are prescribed unto death. There is an over transmission of radiation from unnecessary x-rays. Divorce, murder, and corruption are at an all time high. Regardless if, through family pedigree, or environmental manifestation, mental illness is on the rise, so is an increase in self-sabotaging behavior.
People will argue without hearing a complete point being made by someone. Listening for one key word that can be used to pass over the entire statement without giving due attention. Everything is not meant to be an argument, if only heard, the advice might be helpful. In marriage, unresolved issues that no attention was given to, prevents us from loving. Old wounds cannot heal if we do not stop scratching them. People will take all that you have to give, but will decline to feed you, if ever you need them.
Be careful of those with a hoarder spirit, they will feed you food that mold is hidden therein, stirring it until there is no visible sign. There are people who will not acknowledge a believers ability of discernment, instead, they will seek to pluck out the eye of one with an ability to penetrate their disguise.
Touch the surface of a dream inspired of God; this brings the enemies of this life into the realization, they have no power to stop you. A lack of perfection does not mean that life cannot be enjoyed. It has been said, “rich hearts may be under poor coats.” When our first priority is the Kingdom of God, our citizenship is higher than this earth. We live by an established set of rules, which is our standard, that below, we will never go.
To have a desire to be in relationship, is different than needing someone who does not mutually desire the same. Though we lose them, the courage to encourage ourselves is never lost. At the rate things were going, it was better that we parted ways. Our intelligence is shown by our ability to adapt to change. There is no need to guard ourselves in new relationships, because we adapted to the change from the old. The weight of our recovery is not the responsibility of new relationship, especially a person who did nothing to cause us harm. Therefore, release the old, for God gives us permission to move on. Being no longer stuck in the pain of falling down.
Checkmate, I prevail! God has lifted me up, that my foes do not prevail over me.
