Good -Life Devotional: RESISTANCE AGAINST WITCHCRAFT IN THE CHURCH

Galatians 3:1

" O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, ..'

1 Samuel 15:23 declares, “For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry.” Witchcraft is not limited to occult rituals; it manifests whenever God’s word is resisted and His authority is despised. Isaiah 1:19 assures that willingness and obedience bring God’s blessings, but rebellion invites curses and destruction.

In many churches today, witchcraft enters subtly through individuals—often disguised as prophets or prophetesses—who operate in the spirit of Jezebel (2 Kings 9:22; Revelation 2:20–22). This spirit promotes immorality, idolatry, and false prophecy, leading believers away from truth. Such teachings open the door to spiritual and even financial poverty, for witchcraft disrupts divine order and hinders God’s favor (Deuteronomy 28:15–20).

God showed His displeasure against teachers of rebellion in Jeremiah 28:15–17, striking Hananiah the false prophet dead for speaking lies in His name. Likewise, He commands His people to expose and prophesy against such practices (Ezekiel 13:17–23). These workers are partners with the destroyer (1 Corinthians 10:10), bringing division, sickness, and death into the body of Christ.

Micah 5:12 promises that God will “cut off witchcraft” from among His people, purging His church from every occult influence. Believers must resist by staying rooted in Scripture (2 Timothy 3:16–17), discerning spirits (1 John 4:1), and walking in obedience to the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:16–18).

To overcome witchcraft, the church must reject rebellion, submit fully to God (James 4:7), and stand united in prayer and holiness, for only then will the gates of hell not prevail (Matthew 16:18).

 In our daily prayers we should seek a healthy appetite for God's word and a discerning spirit .

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.
