Breaking Occult Spells: Protection from Witchcraft and Occult Influences (book by Eric Gondwe, BMC, MBA, DD)


Chapter 7. Breaking Occult Spells: God the Spell Breaker, the Spell Buster

The nature of breaking occult spells:

God breaks the spells from bearing fruit, not us. He is the spell breaker or the spell buster. We only do our part and then leave him to do his part in the spirit realm. Just as people in occult groups summon evil spirits through their spells we, as Christians, summon God through the part we play.

We therefore do not confront the evil spirits that are being summoned by people in the occult. Neither do we confront people in occult groups who’re working in partnership with evil spirits by casting spells. The battle is the Lord’s. He deals with the evil spirits in the spirit realm and he also deals with the people working in alliance with the evil spirits.

Sometimes God can call some of us to confront people in occult groups. This is usually an exception not the rule. One example we have in the bible is Elijah’s. God allowed him to call 450 prophets of Baal and 400 prophets of Asherah for a challenge on whose God was real and powerful. Baal and Asherah (Ashtoreth) were part of foreign gods and goddesses that at some point the Israelites ended up serving. They forgot their real God.

Can you imagine one person against 950 people from the occult who were skilled in their own magic? This was no ordinary person. He was representing the only true God in all creation. This is also our story. We ought to see ourselves in it. We represent the only true God in all creation. Through God each of us can overcome 1,000 or more people from the occult world if called to a contest match! That’s why none of us ought to be afraid of one person or group in the occult that may be in our neighborhood. No matter what rank they may be in Satanism they’re too small for the God we serve!

Elijah’s story is even funny to read. You’ll fall off your chair reading how he taunted and mocked the large assembly of servants from the false gods. They performed all their rituals all day to summon their gods and goddesses and nothing happened. They even went on to cut themselves with their swords to draw blood, a Satanic occult sacrificial symbol, yet nothing happened.

“At noon Elijah began to taunt them. "Shout louder!" he said. "Surely he is a god! Perhaps he is deep in thought, or busy, or traveling. Maybe he is sleeping and must be awakened." So they shouted louder and slashed themselves with swords and spears, as was their custom, until their blood flowed. Midday passed, and they continued their frantic prophesying until the time for the evening sacrifice. But there was no response, no one answered, no one paid attention,” 1 Kings 18:27-29.

This is how miserably they failed to summon their gods to fulfill their desires. God stopped the evil spirits in the spirit realm from being active even after they were summoned through various rituals among those who worshiped them. The magicians or spiritual leaders of these false gods had a few successes in the past. But when God intervened they could not perform even one feat, the entire 950 of them!

When it was Elijah’s turn everything worked according to plan. This includes the most desired matter among the Israelites: rain came, after a difficult drought spell. And the Israelites returned to worshiping their real God!

  Focusing on God’s barriers that prevent spells from materializing

Chapter 2 in my other book on breaking curses covers on five conditions under which curses gain legal entry to operate. The chapter notes that curses on people are not random. They do not just happen by chance, or by bad luck, or accidentally occur on a person.

The chapter gives five conditions that any curse or pronouncement of misfortune must meet before it can have any power on a person. All five conditions have to be met. Thus if a curse qualifies in any four of the five conditions covered it still fails to harvest or bear fruit over an individual.

This is the good news on curses. God has made it harder for such pronouncements of misfortune to bear fruit in order to protect us from being easily harmed. Curses have tough conditions to meet before they can even materialize.

In a similar way occult spells that end up materializing their intended outcome are not random or by chance. People in occult groups can cast as many spells as they wish but all their spells will not materialize if the barriers that prevent spells are in place (active). However, if the barriers that prevent occult spells are not in place their spells are able to materialize in the earthly realm.

Thus our concern or focus ought not to be on what occult groups are up to, including those in Satanism. Our concern ought to be on ensuring that the barriers that prevent spells are in place (active). These barriers work to prevent spells from materializing in the earthly realm. God breaks the occult spells by stopping the evil spirits in the spirit realm from performing their mission.

Thus occult groups do not determine the outcome of their works. We’d have more chaos in the world than we do now if they were in control of whether or not their spells materialize. The presence or absence of barriers against spells is what determines the outcome. If the barriers are present on a particular matter, person, or circumstance their spell casting rituals will not materialize what was intended to be fulfilled in the earthly realm. If the barriers are absent their spell casting rituals will materialize what was intended to be fulfilled.

What are these barriers that work to prevent spells from materializing in the earthly realm?

There are three barriers that God works through to prevent spells from materializing in the earthly realm. The next three sections outline these three types of barriers against occult spells. In summary the barriers are:

      • Barrier 1 against spells: God breaking spells via his sovereign will
      • Barrier 2: God's work via Christ’s atonement -The Blood of Jesus
      • Barrier 3: God breaking spells through our obedience -Our testimony

These barriers do not all have to be in place for spells to be prevented materializing in the earthly realm. Any one barrier is sufficient for God to use in preventing occult spells from materializing.

However, notice that the barriers against occult spells are listed in the order of our level of input. This is to show that at the highest level, in his sovereign will, God chooses to break occult spells out to his own prerogative. At the lowest level God leaves it to us to play a role in determining the outcome. The next three sections outline these three types of barriers against occult spells.

Barrier 1 against spells: God breaking spells through his sovereign will

This is the highest level chooses to break occult spells from materializing in the earthly realm. At this level we have no role or part to play. It’s his full responsibility and affair to intervene. It’s fully his business.

Thus at the highest level God is the gatekeeper of all matters and activities throughout his created universe -including gatekeeper of occult spells. At this level God's sovereign will is our protection from certain occult spells that are prevented or broken from materializing. In his sovereign will he determines the outcome of certain occult spells.

God’s sovereign will is his most supreme will that’s beyond anyone’s input. It’s also beyond our understanding. Bible scholars classify God’s will into four hierarchical categories:

    • God’s sovereign (paramount and prerogative) will.
  • “The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things revealed (to us) belong to us and to our children for ever, that we may follow all the words of this law,” Deuteronomy 29:29.
    • God’s moral and revealed will.
  • “ALL Scripture is God-breathed (inspired) and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work,” 2 Timothy 3: 16-17 (emphasis added).
    • God’s special will for each individual.
  • “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future,” Jeremiah 29:11
  • “The Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you ALL things,” (John 14: 26).
    • Each person’s individual will (free choice).
  • “This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live,” Deuteronomy 30:19.

Thus there is so much about God that we don’t know. It’s all hidden in his sovereign will (no. 1 above). For a reason he’s kept us ignorant on more than we can imagine.

Barrier 2: God's work through Christ’s atonement -The Blood of Jesus

  • “Everyone born of God overcomes the world…Who is it that overcomes the world? Only he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God,” 1 John 5:4-5.
  • “They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death,” Revelation 12:11.
  • “I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it,” Matthew 16:18.
  • “There is no sorcery against Jacob, no divination against Israel. It will now be said of Jacob and of Israel, `See what God has done!'” Numbers 23:23.

Christ’s atonement is the intermediary level God chooses to break occult spells from materializing in the earthly realm. Christ's atonement encompasses Jesus Christ’s death, resurrection, ascension, and its effect on every person who has received him as Lord and Savior into his/her life.

At this level Christ's atonement is our protection from certain occult spells that are prevented or broken through Christ's atonement. For such it means that only those who have received Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior are protected from particular occult spells from materializing. God uses Christ’s atonement as the basis to intervene and prevent the spells from materializing.

By virtue of salvation through Christ a Christian is not deserving or having legal grounds for being under most major occult spells. This is the most important foundation in relation to what Christ obtained for us on the cross. We’re free from Satan’s power over our lives. Satan’s hold over us was broken by Christ shedding his innocent blood for our sake.

“To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood, 6and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father—to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen,” Revelation 1:5-6.

Through the blood of Jesus we’ve been freed. He is our Passover Lamb. The scripture in Revelation 12:11 speaks of believers overcoming Satan by the blood of the Lamb. Our salvation paid for by the blood of Jesus overcomes Satan’s works, including occult activities against us. Our Salvation is an automatic weapon in the spirit realm. It fires automatically at any instance of attack.

In the real sense, our salvation through Christ has qualified us for God‘s protection from Satan’s attacks. The protection we receive in the spirit realm is God’s angels. This can be compared to having body guards. Angels are God’s body guards over us. They are not our body guards as some say it in a puffed up way. If they belonged to us we’d have the authority to issue commands to them. Instead they’re under God’s command.

Thus they are God’s body guards over us and his entire creation. We’re not even allowed to speak to them in the spirit realm, unless God allows them to manifest in the physical realm. They play many other roles besides being God’s body guards over us. My other book on breaking curses has a whole chapter on the nature of God’s angels.

A misinterpretation on Revelation 12:11has developed among some in the body of Christ. Some began to assume the verse implies we’re to directly confront Satan in the spirit realm and invoke the blood of Jesus against him. With this understanding a whole list of other scriptures are taken out of context to justify that God gave us a mandate to bombard evil spirits in the spirit realm. It is claimed to be part of our spiritual warfare against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

With all the battles they faced the early church has no example of even one incident where they went on a mission to confront evil spirits in the spirit realm. They adhered to the principles of indirect confrontation which came through their salvation and their upright walk with God. Through their indirect confrontation using “weapons of righteousness” (2 Corinthians 6:7) they indirectly overcame works of Satan against them and against people they ministered to.

My book titled, Major Spiritual Warfare Principles: Biblical Do’s and Don’ts of Warfare, has more info on this topic, including on Revelation 12:11.

Christ’s work on the cross places a key covering on us. It is like being hidden from an enemy that wants to attack you. You’re safe for as long as you remain in hiding or remain disguised from the enemy’s recognition. The bible says, “…your life is now hidden with Christ in God,” Colossians 3:3.

Thus for any reader seeking protection from witchcraft and occult influences the solution is simple: you must receive salvation from God. It comes through accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. What does receiving salvation from God mean? Appendix 1 answers this question. It also has a prayer of salvation that you can use to receive salvation from God.

Barrier 3: God breaking spells through our obedience -Our testimony

  • “They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death,” Revelation 12:11.
  • “We will be ready to punish every act of disobedience once (when) your obedience is complete,” 2 Corinthians 10:6 (emphasis added).
  • “Submit to God and be at peace with him… You will pray to him, and he will hear you… He will deliver even the one who is not innocent, who will be delivered through the cleanness of your hands,” Job 22: 21,27,30 (emphasis added).
  • “…The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches,” Revelation 1:20.

Through our obedience to his will is the lowest level God chooses to break occult spells. However it is the biggest role we play in terms of doing our own part in facilitating God to break occult spells from materializing.

At this level our obedience to God’s will is our protection from certain occult spells that are prevented or broken through it. For such matters it means that only those walking in our obedience to his will are protected from particular occult spells.

At this level it’s our full responsibility of doing our part that determines whether or not God will intervene. It’s strictly our business, as God’s children, of doing our part and God expects us to be obedient enough to live up to it. If we do he rewards us for our input by granting us the needed protection. If we don’t he’s not held responsible for the consequences –we are.

Our obedience to God is our testimony or evidence in the court of heaven against Satan, our accuser. It is evidence that we’re innocent. If you read the entire context of Revelation 12:11 you’ll see that the confrontation between Satan and God’s people is in the court of heaven. It reads:

“(verse 10) Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: ‘Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down.(v.11) They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death,’” Revelation 12:10-11 (emphasis added).

Note that verse (v.10) talks about “the Accuser,” who is Satan, going before God and making accusations against us. The scripture says he does this “day and night” (v.10) trying to gain legal ground to attack us spiritually, physically, socially, materially and so on.

There are two primary pieces of evidence that God uses to determine whether or not Satan’s accusations are valid. Revelation 12:11 says these two are 1) “the blood of the Lamb,” and 2) “the word of their testimony.” If these two pieces of evidence are present in our lives they act as our defense.

The blood of the Lamb is the blood of Jesus. He is our Passover Lamb. Our salvation paid for by the blood of Jesus overcomes Satan’s works. This was covered in the previous section (Barrier 2: God's work through Christ’s atonement -The Blood of Jesus).

The second piece of evidence is our testimony. Our testimony is God’s word and our conduct of living upright lives. However, it is primarily our conduct of living upright lives. If it was primarily God’s word then bible scholars and we ministers would be the only ones being able to win cases against Satan’s accusations. Christians in places where the bible is suppressed and they literally live by the Holy Spirit’s inspiration and leadings would be the worst victims of Satan. They’d easily lose their case since they don’t have a testimony of intellectually knowing the scriptures.

This is certainly not to minimize the value of God’s word in our lives. It’s to point out that the bible is God’s voice spoken to us. What follows after God has spoken to us through the scriptures is to obey and apply his word. It is the obedience and application of his word that forms the basis of our testimony. Reading it and understanding it won’t be any good if we don’t apply what it says.

The bible is God’s will revealed to us. As we endeavor to learn more about God’s revealed will to us our ultimate goal is to obey and apply his will in our lives. As we obey and apply God’s word into our lives our obedience to his will becomes our testimony or evidence that we’re living upright lives.  The blood of Jesus that covers our sins and our testimony of living upright lives disqualify the accusations Satan makes against us.

We have access to heaven, God’s kingdom, so we can always plead our side of the case against Satan, our Accuser. Our access to heaven is through prayer. Prayer takes us into spiritual realms where we’ve the privilege to approach God, our heavenly Father.

We do not know exactly what Satan is accusing us on before God. However what’s important is that we have enough evidence to ensure God finds us innocent from Satan’s accusations. This evidence is the blood of the Lamb and our testimony that overcomes Satan in the court of heaven.

The blood of the Lamb is a free gift we already have which God gave us after we received salvation. Our testimony is a set of endeavors for righteousness that show our own input in obeying God’s will. Thus if ever Satan is found to win any case against any of us it means the case was lost on the grounds of having an insufficient testimony. It can never be lost on the grounds of not being under the blood of the Lamb - unless a person is not yet saved.

The basis of our part through walking in obedience for guaranteeing God’s protection from occult spells

The occult world and their activities of sorcery through spell casting and making their ways acceptable to people is growing, not diminishing. This is even what bible prophecy points to about the end-times.

Jeff Harshbarger, in his book From Darkness to Light, says, “Parents, the occult is being marketed to your children at an unprecedented level through movies, television programs, books, games, toys, and trading cards. It’s portrayed as innocent, fun, and entertaining. To see the newest or latest in occult items for kids, turn on the television, browse the children’s department at the local bookstore, or walk the aisles of the toy store nearest to you,” (Jeff Harshbarger, From Darkness to Light, p.131-132).

However, as Harshbarger points out, the association of occult related content among children does not invite demonic activity. It nonetheless can pose as an invitation for children to experiment with occult practices that tap into the spirit world and summon demonic activity.

In addition, the most important concern is not whether our children in society would experiment with occult practices that tap into the spirit world. The most important concern is whether or not we’re doing enough to ensure they’re under God’s covering.

Doing enough is not measured by how much we monitor them - though essential. Doing enough is measured by how much we’re connecting ourselves to God, our ultimate source of strength, protection, and everything good. You can see how much responsibility God entrusts us with. It impacts the lives of others in many ways. Our obedience to God is not just for our own sake but also for the sake of those we’re entrusted with.

Those we’re entrusted with include our immediate family, siblings, neighbors, those who’re impacted through our talents (ministry), and so on. As said earlier, our obedience is a weapon of righteousness that enables God to fight our battles in the spirit realm. Through our obedience to God our prayers for others avail much.

“The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects,” James 5:16.

If you look at the moral depravity in this world today it sometimes seems like a punishment to have children. Their innocent lives are under so many temptations and appeals from the fallen world. The fallen world is so aggressive in recruiting them into one thing or another. Some parents are at a loss, leave alone having to deal with their own lives!

The fallen world is therefore not joking to bring down society with its depravity. We too ought not to be joking when dealing with it. We ought not to look at stuff being thrown at us (and those we’re entrusted with) as just mere products, services, mere music, movies, advertisements, and so on. Some groups in the occult world are using these avenues to poison society spiritually, socially, physically, and materially.

They are very serious in their Satanic agenda. We too ought to be very serious in our God-sent agenda as his vessels of light, hope, salvation, and so on. We’re in a spiritual warfare over our lives and over the lives of those we’re entrusted with. Our obedience to God who deals with forces working against us is so crucial in winning this war.

Our salvation through Christ guarantees us a “plot” in heaven but it’s our obedience to God that determines how we’ll exist while still here on earth. It determines the level God will not just use us for his glory while still here on earth but also how much God will protect us from Satan’s works against us. Our obedience to God can therefore not be emphasized enough. It’s so important words cannot describe it. Obedience constitutes “weapons of righteousness” as will be seen below.

Putting on the full armor of God in our spiritual warfare

Putting on the full armor of God in the spiritual warfare comes with a mindset that we’re in a spiritual war. The great part of it is that we’re on the most powerful side. The most powerful being, God, is on our side.

In this spiritual war we use weapons to fight our battle. God has his weapons he uses in the realm of the spirit, we have ours in the earthly realm. God’s weapons of warfare in the spirit realm are his angels. Our weapons of warfare in the earthly realm are “weapons of righteousness” (2 Corinthians 6:7) that represent to God that we’ve done our part for him to confront the enemy on our behalf in the spirit realm.

In the book of Ephesians the scripture covers on our spiritual amour or weapons of spiritual warfare. The spiritual amour in the Ephesians passage is composed of Truth, Righteousness, Gospel of Peace, Faith, Salvation, and the Word of God. All these are aspects of consecration, obedience to and fellowship with God.

The Lord uses our consecration and obedience to overturn Satan’s legal hold over matters in our lives and the lives of those we’ve been assigned to minister to –spiritually, socially, materially and physically. “We will be ready to punish every act of disobedience once (when) your obedience is complete,” 2 Corinthians 10:6 (emphasis added).

The passage in Ephesians says, “Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

“Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.

“In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints,” Ephesians 6:11-18 (emphasis added).

You’ll notice that the entire armor of God is a call to a life of consecration, obedience and fellowship with God - truth, righteousness, gospel of peace, faith, salvation, word of God, prayers.

It is not meant for us to go out and start bombarding the spiritual forces of evil in the spiritual or heavenly realms. My book Major Spiritual Warfare Principles: Biblical Do’s and Don’ts of Warfare has more detailed info on this topic. Please see the book’s Chapter 4, “True Biblical Spiritual Warfare = Indirect Confrontation.”

Notice too the forces mentioned that struggle against us (and ultimately struggle against God). They constitute forces on earth and forces in the spiritual realm. The forces in the earthly realm cannot be spirits since spirits do not have physical bodies. It is therefore people who are vessels of Satan who represent him and his agenda on earth. Just as we represent God and his agenda on earth there are people who work to represent Satan.

Here’s the section of the scripture above that mentions that forces that struggle against us (and ultimately struggle against God) constitute forces on earth and forces in the spiritual realm:

“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms,” Ephesians 6:12 (emphasis added).

How some occult groups are using the media for their Satanic agenda

Both white and black witchcraft practices are becoming the major ways of manipulating people in order to make them accept whatever is being offered to them. For example, many people in the secular music and film industry (singers, actors, actresses, producers, marketers, etc) in order to succeed cast spells or seek professional spell casters (professional witches and wizards)?

Most of their spells are career success spells that do not harm other people. Their spells however are intended to manipulate their targeted audience (market) to idolize them to the extent that they buy their products or services. Such practices are what the word spellbound technically relates to. A person who gets to like what’s being offered is said to be spellbound. The spell, not just what’s being offered played a role in influencing or manipulating the person.

You may have come across a story of one actor, singer, or politician who was reported to have visited a psychic for help. Many people assume the help being sought was for psychological or stress reasons.  The stories do not go into details, either to protect the person, or because they do not have the info on what exactly went on behind the closed doors.

At this stage of reading this book you know pretty well the three categories of witchcraft practices: (1) Magic (sorcery), (2) Divination (fortune-telling), and (3) Spiritism (necromancy). Thus if anything was being sought in relation to career success a psychic would not just give advice but would do what is needed in the witchcraft world to summon spiritual powers. This would fall in the category of sorcery in form of casting spells.

G. Craig Lewis has some fiery sermons on this prevalence in the entertainment world using witchcraft practices. He’s the founder of EX Ministries (Generation X Ministries) a ministry mainly to the youth and parents. They serve to sound the alarm about the depraved worldly culture.

You can watch some of his sermons on Youtube.com or at the ministry’s website, EXMinistries.com. Please fasten your seat belts when listening to his teachings. They’re not the usual feel good sermons that people want to hear. And he mentions names of some feel good preachers, something that I don’t do, except where painfully unavoidably necessary. And I don’t agree with some of the names he mentions. But he has very edifying sermons. His no-nonsense preaching on occult influences will inspire you to move out of any comfort zone.

I believe the prevalence in the entertainment world of witchcraft practices is fuelled by Freemasons. The symbolism that’s being publicized by many artists bears lots of the fingerprints or clues of Freemasonry association.

Freemasonry has always been wealth and power centered. Anywhere you smell money and/or power you’ll find Freemasons trying to have a lion’s share (the largest share). Occult researchers and anti-Freemasonry activists like Alex Jones even say that nowadays you cannot be a district judge, top ranked police officer, and many other top posts unless you’re a Freemason. This includes large corporations (including in the multimedia), political office posts, and some large non-profit organizations. Don’t count the people that claim to be Christians, ministers or reverends in some of these posts. We’ve many imposters around us.

Freemasons have been laying the foundation to put in office those who will follow their orders in building their New World Order system. This one world government system has been their pursuit for centuries. During our time their pursuits are becoming so blatantly visible it shows their desperation. Carefully insuring as many positions of leadership and influence are in their hands is a strategy to facilitate their work.

The ultimate objective is to force everyone to follow their religion to bow to and worship the beast: the Antichrist, who is ultimately Satan. The New World Order is not just about power, wealth, and influence, but also about religion. This religion is about worshipping Lucifer.

No wonder we’re seeing such a rise in the focus on occult activities, magic powers, violent images and behavior, you name it. It’s a sign of the rise of the Antichrist.

Thus it’s not surprising that the entertainment world is dominated by people that are not Christians. They’re easier sell-outs to use by the people behind scenes who own the media businesses. Most of the people who do the acting, singing, writing and producing are actually not Freemasons but belong to other occult groups that Freemasonry can tolerate. This is how we can see many in the entertainment world openly saying they belong to one occult group or another. They call each of the groups they belong to as a religious group. And almost none of the religions they mention is Christianity.

The most prominent among these religions mentioned include the Church of Scientology, Kabbalah, and Wicca. Any person who actually belongs to Freemasonry keeps it a secret that he/she belongs to Freemasonry. The person may instead mention a group that the public cannot associate with the money and influence that the people at the top control.

The people at the top or the people that employ the actors, singers, and writers are the real Freemasons. They’re high ranked Freemasons who know what they’re up to as they use the willing artists to poison society spiritually, socially, physically, and materially.

Thus the people pulling the strings and setting the agenda are way at the top. The artists who use witchcraft practices to bolster their careers are not the main problem. Their low level witchcraft practices cannot be compared with the Satanic witchcraft practices of people at the top. If all the artists became Christians today we’d still have to deal the people at the top who set the agenda. They would easily employ other people to replace them. And their agenda would continue to be implemented.

In our endeavors of doing our part we therefore ought to be mindful of the root of the problem as well.  We understand that the people in Mystery Babylon, of which Freemasonry represents, are the ones behind all this. Having this understanding helps us know why it’s going on. The next chapter, “End-time Deception and Control: Final Quest for Global Dominion,” covers on this Mystery Babylon topic.

Some practical steps against occult influences

Some practical steps against occult influences are readily available for all of us before we even move to praying. It concerns eliminating or minimizing the use of matters that the occult world uses in trying to influence us. Unless where necessary, using these avenues is like friendship with what the occult world is throwing at us. Thus elimination is the best form of prevention.

The most important among them is the secular multimedia network. Media ownership is very important real estate for people in the elite occult circles. The real estate that they work to control through the media are the minds of people.

Alternatives exist for us, like Sky Angel which provides exclusively Christian and family friendly programming with as many as 36 channels. The last time I visited their website (February 2008) it broadcasted to residents in USA only. It has moved from satellite broadcasting to broadcasting through IPTV (Internet Protocol Television: television broadcasting through the internet). See SkyAngel.com for more info.

There is no excuse (from God’s perspective) to watch “devilvision” when Christian television alternatives exist. Even where no Christian channels exist falling for most (not all) secular media is as good as dancing with the devil. The level of deception, manipulation, and hidden occult sorcery is tremendous. All it takes is repeated exposure to certain values and lifestyles before one is lured into accepting them.

For Christians the acceptance may not be that of the extreme immoral values like violence, profanity, depravity and so on. It is the seemingly innocent secular values that with little notice of any deception can end up choking our Christian lives. Satan and his team of evil spirits know what dose of poison is a start for each person.

Summary on barriers against occult spells

Overall occult spells do not have the success level many assume they do. This is because spells have all three barriers to deal with before they can materialize in the earthly realm. Some are stopped at God’s sovereign will level. Other’s God breaks them at Christ’s atonement level. Finally, God breaks others through our obedience to his will.

Smith’s Bible Dictionary says, “An examination of the various notices of magic in the Bible gives this general result: They do not, act far as can be understood, once state positively that any but illusive results were produced by magical rites. (Even the magicians of Egypt could imitate the plagues sent through Moses only so long as they had previous notice and time to prepare. The time Moses sent the plague unannounced the magicians failed; they "did so with their enchantments," but in vain,” (Smith's Bible Dictionary, “Magic, Magicians”).
