  • Mary on Matthew 18 - 2 years ago
    Since young, I've thought the lord blessed me with my musical abilities, Compassion and Empathic knowledge of peoples emotions, to empower, and uplift them, never intrude.

    But I am approached by people claiming Clarvoyant, contact from angels for me.

    Is this real, or scams.

    Dear Mary

    Jesus is our mediator between us and God. Not clairvoyant people. Test their spirits by going to the Lord in prayer and by search Scripture to see if what they say align with God's Word. If it does not, avoid these people and reject their words to you. If these people are believers and the words they speak align with Scripture and cone to pass, then perhaps these people have a word or knowledge from the Holy Spirit.

    Pray for discernment in this. I have met believers who often speak supposed "words of knowledge to others often, but what they say is rarely true. These people are deceived in thinking they are exercising a gift of the Holy Spirit but really they are just spoiting proclamations of their own generation, not from God. It can be easy to spot these people due to their "puffs up" attitude and showy ways. One who truly has a word from God to speak to someone does do privately, with humility, and concern for your spiritual well-being,not to humiliate you in public of use this supposed gift to criticize or denigrate a person.

    So be cautious with these folks and pray for hem and for yourself. If you are beset with a sin that you often fall into. Repent and confess it to God. Avoid the occasions for temptations and people who also participate in that sin. Instead, substitute the sinful action with a godly one, that you may bless others and build up your own faith. God bless you.

    Test every spirit to see whether it be of the Lord. When you have a true gift and when you are truly saved you WILL be targeted by demonic forces sending people to bring harm and destruction to you and yours.

    Prayer and supplication. Pray always. Know Gods voice. Know His Word. He speaks through His Word. Pray about everything and everyone.

    True story, once I prayed and asked God to show me who my enemies were and to remove them from my life , and all of my "friends" went away

    Angels often have messages from God to humans . Please read Genesis Ch 21 V 1-21 , Judges Ch 6 V 11-26 , Judges Ch 13 V 1-23 , all of Zechariah and Luke Ch 1 V 1-38 . U will notice that when an Angel is given a message from God to deliver to a human , the Angel does it himself . Angels do not deligate , to a human , what God has told them to do . God has a message for u , it's a message of peace , love , mercy and reconciliation and u will find it in the Bible. So I would say that these so called clairvoyants r nothing more than tricksters who certainly want some thing from u . I would b avoiding them and reading my Bible .

    I ask you to pray & I will also pray for you, for protection & clarity & discernment in these matters.

    I had a friend years ago that had said 'her mother would say something to people she didn't like about fire to cause them fear' a while after that me & that dearly loved friend had a deep discussion about a medical targeted abortion. I pleaded with her not to be afraid but trust GOD, I had told her how so many things that were wonderful about her that would be in that child. She had already had the abortion. Sometime around that she would say "she had dreams about me & house fires, dangerous & was concerned for my family " after saying that to me multiple times, then no longer speaking to me. It literally bothered me over the years, causing unwelcome concerns. Then I would remember what she previously disclosed & GOD's power & protection. Matthew 5:44,

    Peoples words spoken over someone can be curses or blessings but GOD says Edify one another & not to curse. Here are some scriptures: 1 Thessalonians 5:8-11, Romans 14:19, warning, Psalms 62:4, Psalms 109:28,

    Remember the promises spoken over us by GOD. : Genesis 12:3, Numbers 22:12, Deuteronomy 11, Nehemiah 13:12, Proverbs 3:33,

    Proverbs 26:2,

    Hopefully this helps remember: John 16:13,
