2 Thus says the LORD: “Learn not the way of the nations, nor be dismayed at the signs of the heavens because the nations are dismayed at them, 3 for the customs of the peoples are vanity. A tree from the forest is cut down and worked with an axe by the hands of a craftsman. 4 They decorate it with silver and gold; they fasten it with hammer and nails so that it cannot move. 5 Their idols are like scarecrows in a cucumber field, and they cannot speak; they have to be carried, for they cannot walk. Do not be afraid of them, for they cannot do evil, neither is it in them to do good.” ~ Jeremiah 10:2-5
Today is Friday the 13th. It’s a day that haunts many people, including Christians. It’s a day ridden with superstition and fear. Fear of bad luck, things going wrong, etc. When we give in to the fear of Friday the 13th, we give in to the beliefs of the nations. The superstition of those without the hope and security of Christ Jesus. Without the covering of the blood of Jesus.
Superstition cannot coexist with Christ. You’re giving in to fear, not casting it from you. Allowing yourself to give into the superstition of today is no different than giving into the occult. You have been redeemed out of this world and are no longer bound to it. Therefore, do not let superstition influence you in any way, shape, or form. You have been redeemed and covered by the blood of the Lamb.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Don’t Give In To Superstition.
