The Ouija Board Live

Joe and I are so thankful we were able to express ourselves through the Internet medium on blogtalk radio. You can listen to the podcast of our show by clicking the play button on the player of the previous post.

It's amazing how quickly thirty minutes go by. Because of that we weren't able to cover two biblical accounts from the New Testament that involved sorcery.The first of these is from Acts 13:6-12

6They traveled through the whole island until they came to Paphos. There they met a Jewish sorcerer and false prophet named Bar-Jesus, 7who was an attendant of the proconsul, Sergius Paulus. The proconsul, an intelligent man, sent for Barnabas and Saul because he wanted to hear the word of God. 8But Elymas the sorcerer (for that is what his name means) opposed them and tried to turn the proconsul from the faith. 9Then Saul, who was also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, looked straight at Elymas and said, 10"You are a child of the devil and an enemy of everything that is right! You are full of all kinds of deceit and trickery. Will you never stop perverting the right ways of the Lord? 11Now the hand of the Lord is against you. You are going to be blind, and for a time you will be unable to see the light of the sun."

Immediately mist and darkness came over him, and he groped about, seeking someone to lead him by the hand. 12When the proconsul saw what had happened, he believed, for he was amazed at the teaching about the Lord.


The second Scripture reference is also taken from Acts 16:16-19

 16Once when we were going to the place of prayer, we were met by a slave girl who had a spirit by which she predicted the future. She earned a great deal of money for her owners by fortune-telling. 17This girl followed Paul and the rest of us, shouting, "These men are servants of the Most High God, who are telling you the way to be saved." 18She kept this up for many days. Finally Paul became so troubled that he turned around and said to the spirit, "In the name of Jesus Christ I command you to come out of her!" At that moment the spirit left her.


It is the awesome power of God that has authority over these demonic forces. As powerful as these demons are over mere mortals, they cower in fear and flee at the mention of the Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible tells us that Christ made a spectacle of them in His triumph on the Cross (Col 2:14-16).

For anyone who has dabbled in the occult through experimentation with the Ouija board and has in the past or is now in turmoil because of these demonic entities, you too can have victory through Christ. Contact Joe or me through our web site contact page and we would be happy to share the good news of Christ with you and put these spirits of evil in their proper place of exile.
