What Does the Bible Say about...


Fortune Telling?



Do you remember these from your childhood?

They were a fun way of trying to tell us of what would come.

Sadly they were the forunners for the modern day fortune tellers. 

Or were they?

Let's see what the Bible says about fortune tellers?

💗💗💗

The practice of fortune telling is forbidden by God. It's in the Bible, Deuteronomy 18:9-13, TLB. "When you arrive in the Promised Land you must be very careful lest you be corrupted by the horrible customs of the nations now living there. For example, an Israeli who presents his child to be burned to death as a sacrifice to heathen gods, must be killed. No one may practice black magic, or call on the evil spirits for aid, or be a fortune teller, or be a serpent charmer, medium, or wizard, or call forth the spirits of the dead. Anyone doing these things is an object of horror and disgust to the Lord, and it is because the nations do these things that the Lord your God will displace them. You must walk blamelessly before the Lord your God."

The future is known only by God. It's in the Bible, Isaiah 8:19, TLB. "So why are you trying to find out the future by consulting witches and mediums. Don't listen to their whisperings and mutterings. Can the living find out the future from the dead? Why not ask your God?"

No, fortune telling is certainly not new.

It existed long before the games we played in school to learn of our futures.

Long before we were born. 

Along with all the other kinds of the occult

this one is so dangerous.

And can be expensive for those willing to pay

for the services of a fortune teller. 

And one of the worst things about consulting a fortune teller

while sometimes they may get something right,

they also get a lot wrong,

And they have ways to find out information from people

to make them look legitimate.

But this kind of the occult, along with all others

are abonable to God.

For only He knows the future.

Thanks for coming by, Friends. 

Have a blessed day.
