THE USE OF SPIRIT MEDIUMS IN DIVINATIONS ABHORED BY GOD. 

By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi

2 Kings 23:24 'Moreover the workers with familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the images, and the idols, and all the abominations that were spied in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, did Josiah put away, that he might perform the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the LORD."

 Spirit Mediums are those spirit guides  people consult to reveal details of unknown events . They are also known as fortune tellers .They can now be found mostly on Tik Tok social media platform . They rely on fallen demonic spirits for information and not the Holy Spirit. They operate mostly at midnight. Persons  not livinhy by God's holy standards in the bible are drawn to spirit mediums for solutions to their problems . 

  Spirit mediums seek to take the place of God's word in the church . The bible contains the will of God for mankind and anything that seeks to take the place of the word of God is an enemy of God. That is why God opposes spirit mediums . 

     The Bible explicitly condemns the practice of consulting spirit mediums, as demonstrated by the examples of Manasseh and the girl possessed by a spirit in the Acts of the Apostles. In 2 Chronicles 33:6, Manasseh, a king of Judah, is described as practicing sorcery, divination, and seeking omens. He engaged in activities considered detestable by the Lord, including consulting mediums and spiritists. His actions provoked God's anger, leading to his eventual downfall and captivity. This serves as a powerful illustration of the consequences of seeking guidance from sources other than God.

In the New Testament, Acts 16:16-18 narrates the story of a girl possessed by a spirit of divination, who made her masters wealthy by fortune-telling. When she followed Paul and his companions, proclaiming them as servants of the Most High God, Paul became troubled and commanded the spirit to leave her in the name of Jesus Christ. The spirit left her immediately, showcasing God's power over such entities and affirming His disapproval of their influence.

These biblical accounts underscore a clear message: God detests the practice of consulting spirit mediums. Such acts are seen as turning away from Him and His guidance, which is why believers are urged to seek wisdom and direction solely from God, as emphasized in Isaiah 8:19 " And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?"

Prayer: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to overcome witchcraft.
