“And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead? To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.”
Isaiah 8:19-20 KJV
Isaiah prophesied, “Now, suppose someone says, “Consult mediums and spiritists who moan and mutter their incantations in their ritual pits; after all, isn’t it right for people to seek oracles from their gods by asking the dead about the destiny of the living?” You are to answer them: “Listen to the teaching and instruction of the Lord! If their speech does not line up with His word, they will have no light of dawn!” In our culture today, there are many mediums and spiritists who offer knowledge of your personal future. In fact they offer their services in hotels and resorts even! Tell such people of the living God, Isaiah tells. We are to tell everyone of the Risen Christ. The light of dawn is the hope of Jesus Christ that grows inside of us. The path of the righteous is like the light of a sunrise shining in the eastern sky. It increases from dark to dim to bright - but the path of the righteous is like the shining sun, that shines ever brighter unto the perfect day. In times of calamity, let’s make sure we quiet our heart and seal up the Word of God in our soul. The dawning of Christ’s glory is coming. For us, the early rays of morning light are already shining. Let’s believe in the Risen Christ. Amen!
