DAY 19
TOPIC: *DELIVERANCE FROM THE POWERS OF EVIL DEDICATION.*
( 1SAMUEL 1:11 & 24, DEUTERONOMY 18:10 LEVITICUS 18:21)
IN LEVITICUS 18:21, God told the Israelites not to dedicate their children to the deity named MOLECH. The way children of those times were dedicated was by setting a fire and asking the children to cross the fire and kiss the idol molech and that is a symbol of of dedication to the idol. Evil dedication is a very terrible thing. Many people today are suffering from the things they do not know. There are so many that their case have become so complicated and they have prayed all manners of prayers, gone to so many men and women of God as well as prophets but they have not been able to find out the source of their problems and they have not been able to obtain solutions. In our African setup, parents always like to hand their children over to a god or power that they believed is capable of protecting, saving and watching over the child and helping the child become someone in life. Parents like dedicating their children, this is because they know that a child needs the help of an invisible being that will help the child and fight the battles of the child. In the case of Samuel, in 1samuel 1:11, the mother of Samuel HANNAH was looking for a child for years because she was barren and she cried unto God and vowed that if God would give her a male child she would return the child back to God. When Samuel was born and after he has been weaned, Hannah took him back to God with an offering and sacrifice and the child was dedicated to God according to her vow. Sometimes when mothers are looking for the fruit of the womb, they go through different things and visit places in search for children. Some mothers have made some terrible vows and promises and when that is done and the child is born, the child becomes property of such deity or whatever spiritual authorities from whom they asked the child. I have seen people going through so many things in the work of the ministry during counceling, prayers and administering delivarance as the grace of God has been helping me to do.
