This was written so we’d avoid following evil spirits, for sadly, they’re real… and many of them of different sorts are in every nation, with some hidden in plain sight and others working behind the scenes. That wasn’t what God had planned for anyone. But in contrast to fortune-telling and soothsaying, prophetic revelation is of Jesus, and that’s awesome! This passage is found in pages 69-70 of the NKJV Bible I have for this project, pages 89-90 of the NASB Bible I have for it, page 147 of my VOICE copy, and page 145 of my Amplified Bible (Classic Edition) copy.
I do hope to not find another human being who would weaponize any of this and call it loving your neighbour, akin to Leviticus 19:17-18, but knowing this world, I’ll probably find more people who actually practice this and use the above Scripture to justify it, whether I’m in ministry or not… and because the authoritarian agenda is almost halfway finished from those in power (and we’re not even halfway through 2025 yet), I don’t feel safe in the U.S., so that even in Gilbert, I’d actually find a bunch of godless men pretending to love what’s right. And Gilbert’s one of the safest places in the country, period, so if God wills, I want to go to some place like the Netherlands, for I heard they did tours I’d like to rephrase as decommissioning oneself from an unsafe land. (The original name I think is a bit inappropriate, hence the name change here.) And Jesus knows I only want to do what’s right… yet they do criminalize prostitution is most U.S. counties. I don’t know why it’s legal in most of Nevada… it’s not good. I pray for repentance and forgiveness there, and for the Burning Man festivals they have in the Nevada desert, for clothing there is optional. Yep, you read that right. You can legally show up there naked. I don’t recommend it 😅😅 — but still, nudity is legal in certain contexts in many parts of Europe. I think that’s wack 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣 why they practice this I have no idea (verse 30 prohibits prostitution), but thank God hiking naked is no longer allowed in Switzerland! 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 I pray for healing in Europe, since it’s safe in many parts but not many know Jesus there, much like in the U.S., though safety here is pretty hard to find.
And as for tattoos (verse 28), I don’t think all of them are to be avoided, for Jesus will have a writing on His robe and thigh containing something no one knows but Himself, and with it will be “King of Kings and Lord of Lords” (Revelation 19:16). So that tells me you actually can get good tattoos, and I don’t criticize them. But by now, this is probably common knowledge, for in 2012, when I first did Bible notes on a study Bible I had bought for a class or two that autumn (it was at ASU), I don’t think a lot of people really knew this too well… maybe they do now? I don’t know… but if money weren’t a factor, I would’ve gotten 60 godly tattoos all across my body by now. Yet I heard a guy not having tattoos is a flex, so maybe I should avoid getting ink’d up 😅😄😆😂🤣 I don’t want it to be like that one time at work when a customer confessed to me and a cashier that she got tattoos of flowers on her butt, though 😵😵😵😵😵😵😬😬😬😬 I legit couldn’t make this up. A month or two ago, she said this to us, and I can imagine other women got some… erotic tattoos of things in their private parts to satisfy the guys they’re sleeping with. I’m heartbroken for them 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔 I mean, I don’t think it’s right if a lady prefers me over Jesus… but a bit off-topic, many women are leaving the church, and that’s because of MAGA invading the Lord’s gatherings. Yet at the same time, I’m convinced people like me who love Him are among the unbelievers, including in the churches we go to. There’s this group called the “J6ers” who took part in the insurrection in early 2021 (they’re still not sorry for the violence and profane use of God’s Name they caused), and many of them are social media influencers. They’re also in our churches, and while I’ve heard reports that all of them in Arizona have been arrested, I’m not so sure that’s the case, for what do we do in case we see one? Indeed, I found out this one guy I’ve met before follows some of them, believing they have fruit of the Spirit. Don’t follow them, and pray you have a chance to escape their unrepentant souls. For they cannot stand against the Lord Jesus despite claiming to be on His side, but that’s always tougher to swallow.
In the meantime, I’m hoping my vacation request for work is approved, so that I can maybe go somewhere fun with a friend or two. But in the next post, I’ll write on verses 33-34, for I love that kindness to foreigners is encouraged 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💝💝💝💝💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘 hopefully that comes soon. I’ll see you then!
