ASTRONOMY IS OF THE DEVIL
July, 2,012
Let's see the Random House College Dictionary explain what Astronomy and Astrology is:
Astrology - the study that assumes and attempts to interpret the influence of the heavenly bodies on human affairs.
Astronomy - the science that deals with the material universe beyond the earth's atmosphere. {My note: It is also our Creator's story of His plan for us.}
Very few people have heard about the Gospel in the stars or the history of mankind. Do not confuse this with astrology. All Astrology can do is tell people's fortune. They can't even accurately tell what will happen to you in the future 100% of the time, which our heavenly Creator tells us that is how we know whether a Prophet is from Him or not. If they miss even one time, then they are to be considered a false Prophet, and we have plenty of them running around today.
The devil cannot begin to tell the plan of our Creator. He knows only some of the future, but He does not know the whole future. Otherwise, if he did, he would not have incited the religious leaders to crucify Yshua.
Where do you think the knowledge comes from when you see a fortune teller? The devil! It just dawned on me that in the title "fortune teller," it should tell us something. They are out just to make a fortune at your expense.
Why spend your money going to a fortune teller to find out your future when you can get it for free by studying your Creator's Word in the Bible. He is the only One Who knows the end from the beginning.
Where does the information come from when you play the Ouija board? I played when I was younger. The board said that I would become an Airline Stewardess but the plane would crash and I would be crippled the rest of my life where I was in a wheelchair!
Would our Creator tell us something that horrible? No, only the enemy of our soul would tell us something like that. You may think this is all nonsense. But believe it or not, this physical world is not the only world we live in. There is a spiritual world that we live in but cannot see. I think that's a good thing because if we saw all the demons that were in the world, most of us would freak out. Once we leave this body, our spirits will live forever, either with our Creator and Savior, or with the devil and his angels in the Lake of Fire or hell.
There is a big difference between Astronomy and Astrology. Astrology is of the devil. He cannot do or create anything original. All he can do is copy, twist and distort what his Creator did. He replaced and twisted YHVH's astronomy, like he does everything else.
When I first started going to House of Joseph, Diane Wilder did a teaching on "Salvation in the Sky," which was very good. She was explained that YHVH created the sun, moon and the stars and that they told the story of salvation and redemption. You can do a search to find out the salvation story and YHVH's 7,000 year plan.
The 48 constellations that make up the true Zodiac all go together to tell the story of Yshua, our Redeemer which includes His virgin birth, His life, death and resurrection, and His return in triumph over Satan at His second coming to earth.
When most people look at the sky, they do not even realize that their Creator has told the plan of salvation, history and the future in the constellations. I know I didn't. I would say that is because it is not taught at their Church because they have been taught that anything to do with the stars is of the devil. Is that true?
Does not the Scriptures talk about how YHVH made them for signs? Listen to what Genesis 1:14 and Psalm 19:1 states "And YHVH said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night, and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and days and years... The heavens declare the glory of El and the expanse shows His handiwork."
WOW! If the lights in the firmament are to be for signs, and for seasons, day and year, would we not want to see what they are saying? Hmmm... What seasons? I just noticed this myself as I am typing. It said the firmament is to be for years. Why would we want to know that?
Could it be that the calendar that we go by is not the calendar that our Creator goes by and wants us to live by? But, that is another subject.
Here are a few more verses:
Psalm 148:3
Praise Him, sun and moon. Praise Him, all you shining stars.
Isaiah 48:3a, 6d-f
I have declared the former things from the beginning and they went forth out of My Mouth and I showed them and they came to pass suddenly... You have heard, see all this; and will not you declare it? I have showed you new things from this time, even hidden things, and you did not know them.
How did YHVH declare the former things? Could it be by the stars and constellations, the sun and moon? How else did the magi or wise men know when and where the Messiah of Israel was to be born? So many people believe that they were pagan priests, but why would pagan priest be looking for a Messiah in Bethlehem? Would it not make more sense that it would be Priests from the tribe of Levi who had been scattered to Babylon?
Let's look at Matthew 2:9-10 "When they had heard the king, they departed and the star which they saw in the East, went before them until it came and stood over where the young Child was. When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly joy."
Don't you think that if YHVH foretold the birth of our Redeemer, He will also tell the rest of history through the constellations? If the magi knew when and what city to look for the Messiah, do you think that our Creator will leave us in the dark as to our future? If you want to know the future, look up and learn about the constellations, sun, moon and stars.
Romans 1:18-20
For the wrath of YHVH is revealed from the heavens against all wickedness and all unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness; because that which could be known about YHVH is manifest in them; for YHVH has shown it to them. For the invisible things coming from Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things of creation; even His eternal power and divine nature; so that they are without excuse.
I love these verses. I will never forget when my parents picked my brothers and I up from junior high school one day in the fall. The trees were beautiful orange and yellow colors. The sun was getting ready to set so it was so beautiful. My Dad looked at them and said, "I do not understand how anyone can look at the creation and say that there is no God." That is so true. After all these years, and I won't say how many, I have never forgotten that day.
There are so many more verses to share, but I hope that these will convince you that ur Creator does want us to know the Constellations, at least to know that there are signs in the sky He is wanting us to be aware of.
Have any of you noticed that on March 13th and 14th, the planets Venus and Jupiter were shining real bright? You could see them for days. It was so amazing. Below are links you may click on to learn about Jupiter and Venus.
Venus = the Bride of Messiah
