MANY VOICES BUT ONLY ONE IS TRUTH
“When someone tells you to consult mediums and spiritists, who whisper and mutter, should not a people inquire of their God? Why consult the dead on behalf of the living? Consult God’s instruction and the testimony of warning. If anyone does not speak according to this word, they have no light of dawn.” Isaiah 8:19-20 NIV
There are things that have become societally acceptable, even though they are anathema according to Scripture.
Tarot cards, horoscopes, enneagrams, ancestor invocations, and the countless energy readings that flood our timelines have all been subtly dressed in language that sounds spiritual, but they are not of the Spirit of God. What was once clearly labeled as witchcraft has now been rebranded as “self-awareness,” “manifestation,” or “healing energy.” Yet behind these voices lies a deception that attempts to convince man that he can find light apart from God.
John 8:12 tells us plainly that Christ is the true light, while every other source eventually fades into darkness. The Word of God is not one of many options; it is the only truth that brings life and clarity. To “consult God’s instruction” is not just to read the Bible, but to surrender to its authority, allowing the Spirit to filter every other voice through the lens of truth.
When we stop seeking the voice of the Spirit through the Word, we leave room for other voices to shape our convictions. The tragedy of our time is that many have replaced revelation with intuition, and divine direction with emotional confirmation. But a true child of God recognizes that discernment begins where surrender begins, and that’s at the feet of Jesus, in the quiet counsel of His Word.
Child of God, the test of every teaching, every trend, every supposed truth is this: Does it align with the Word of God? If it does not, it carries no light of dawn, no revelation, no peace, and no lasting fruit.
Let your soul be anchored in His voice alone, for amid the noise of this age, the Spirit still speaks, but He only confirms what God has already spoken.
Prayer: My Father, thank You for being the Voice that brings clarity to any confusion present in the world. My heart is guarded from the subtle deceptions of this age and my ears tuned to Your truth alone. Continually teach me to discern truth by Your Word, and to find rest in what You have already spoken, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
CI.
