It’s right there on the
pages of the news papers, a harmless list of what-will-bes depending on your
birth month. Even on the internet the determination of your future is just one
click away.
It looks like innocent
fun, checking out what your day will be like and taking a peek at the horoscope
on the tabloids, right?
Well, the use of horoscopes is witchcraft. I want to
say it bluntly because I know some Christians use it and allow their lives to
be controlled by its predictions.
They don’t make a step unless they consult
the horoscope. What makes checking out your horoscope any different from
visiting a Necromancer with a crystal ball?
A horoscope is an astrological chart that is
calculated based upon the date, time and place of birth. It's the forecast of a
person's future by delineation of character and circumstances based on the
positions of the stars and planets at the time of the person's birth.
With the use of
Astrology, a horoscope can be erected for a person, a business, a city, or a
nation. In fact, a horoscope can be erected for just about anything.
Astrology is divination;
the study of the stars and severally in the Bible God condemns it strongly.
Lev 19:26 ‘Do not
practice divination or sorcery.’
1 Sam 15:23 'Rebellion
is like the sin of divination and arrogance like the evil of idolatry'
Deut 18:10b-12a ‘And do
not let your people practice fortune-telling, or use sorcery, or interpret
omens, or engage in witchcraft, or cast spells,or function as mediums or
psychics, or call forth the spirits of the dead. Anyone who does these things
is detestable to the Lord…’
God abhors witchcraft. The only reason why horoscopes seem to work is because you believe them.
Concerning predicting
the future. See what God says:
Isaiah 46:10 God says,
“Only I can tell you the future before it even happens…”
God is the only one who
can tell you the future! Why? Because He
alone knows His thoughts and plans for you.
When you fashion your
life by demonic predictions, you are in trouble. You have opened up yourself to
demonic influence and manipulations and simply handed them your life to do as
they wish because you believe them rather than turn the pages of the Bible and
believe what God is saying there concerning you every day.
So, if you really want
to know what your today will be like, don’t consult the horoscope. Consult God’s
Word.
“For I know my thoughts
for you. Thoughts of good and not of evil, to bring you to a future and an
expected end.” Jer 29:11
