6Whoever turns to mediums or spiritists to prostitute himself with them, I will also set My face against that person and cut him off from his people.
1 Samuel 28: 7Then Saul said to his servants, “Find me a woman who is a medium, so I can go and consult her.”
“There is a medium at Endor,” his servants replied.
8So Saul disguised himself by putting on different clothes, and he set out with two of his men. They came to the woman at night, and Saul said, “Consult a spirit for me. Bring up for me the one I name.”
I am teasing you with these two verses about Saul. To find out what happened you will need to read the chapter yourself!
1 John 4: 2By this you will know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and which is already in the world at this time.
Discernment!
1 John 4 tells us how to discern the Spirit of God verses the spirit of the antichrist!
“It should be noted that the spirit a medium conjures is not the spirit of a deceased person (the case of Samuel speaking to Saul was a rare exception). Jesus’ story of the rich man and Lazarus in Luke 16:18–31 gives strong evidence that, once a person is dead, his soul remains in either heaven or hell.”

1 Kings 22: 21Then a spirit came forward, stood before the LORD, and said, ‘I will entice him.’
‘By what means?’ asked the LORD.
22And he replied, ‘I will go out and be a lying spirit in the mouths of all his prophets.’
‘You will surely entice him and prevail,’ said the LORD. ‘Go and do it.’
23So you see, the LORD has put a lying spirit in the mouths of all these prophets of yours, and the LORD has pronounced disaster against you.”
Lesson for today to His children is: don’t seek out mediums or spiritists!
If a spirit communicates with you, test the spirit as in 1 John 4:2; “Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God”!
Have you prostituted yourself by consulting mediums or spiritists?
If so, confess and ask the Lord to forgive you. He loves you and sent Jesus Christ in the flesh to cleanse the sins of the world!
Blessings, David
