    I am a college student who is a new Christian but as I was registering for second semester of classes I felt like I needed to take a Buddhist class, and then I registered for Buddhist Himalayan abroad trip. After watching this video I withdrew from both the class and the abroad trip because I realize that I was looking for “more” than God which gave me a temporary comfort. And this video has blessed me with the knowledge that these courses would have opened me up to demonic spirits and gods where I do not need to opened up to. Thank you so much Stephanie.

      So you went from the Primordial Law back to idolism...? If you read the rest of the Bible, the parts that were excluded as the 66 books provided by the god of this world is only a tiny snippet... it will lead you right back to the Primordial Law of awareness, and away from the sinbased idolism and the lie that worshipping a dead body on a cross can redeem one from sin... sin (the wants and desires of the flesh and material realm that disconnects humanity from the eternal awareness) is a really attractive trap though. It will continue to suck a person in and away from the Law of creation. Narrow is the path of life and few are they who find it, but broad is the path of destruction and many who enter do not return.

      This is it Styler, It just doesn't make sense a lot of it in the bible too, books of added texts in the bible, removed scripts and a God that is so loving but tells people to rape and kill each other. there are truth with error in all faiths. `I believe in the power thatJesus name hold and his role to set us free from the trap people were in, worshiping scripts and condemning others. I believe in Our Creator that created all things but the christian faith is also misleading us away from the truth, worshiping a body, blood and power of another human being, making Jesus an idol rather than worshiping the creator himself. all things ARE GOD yeshua was indeed GOD, but so its all his Creations. Yeshua is indeed the way... the way of being ... that's the true Salvation. Being like Christ is the true path not just worshipping and hoping for a Golden ticket to heaven. Looking down at all other faiths and practices, using fear as a way to trap people into faith, using the law of prosperity aka Tithing to grow their churches and salaries. The enemy is the deception, anything that have an agenda to serve the self and not the true kingdom of God. The Kingdom of God is oneness to all things, to respect all beings the way God loves all its beings. the Kingdom of God is within us not in some place in the sky. it a mindset is a way of living. its not a religion, which who we truly are, outside of confusion and lies @@SkylerDawn1123

      Reading the Bible was so eye opening for me. I'm glad I studied it for myself instead of listening to what other people says the bible says. That's amazing. Theres so much to learn and so much spiritual understanding you'll have. God allowed me to go through things the Bible spoke about before I even knew what was in there, then after those experiences the Holy spirit told me to read the Bible and I see why. Its definitely not what people think and more interesting than I expected , I assumed it would be boring and now I love reading it/theology in general.

      ​​​​@@ElevateMindMasteryTV I used to be one of those people who claimed to follow Christ but say scripture can't be trusted or it doesn't make sense, that was before truly studying it & not just reading it / hearing from others on social media. The Bible in it's original language(s) has been studied for a very long time, there's no proof of this claim that the Bible has been drastically changed, it was translated into other languages. God doesn't tell people to be violent for no reason, and he doesn't tell others to rape. Ppl can post verses mentioning, murder, rape, slavery, genocide etc with 0 context of the story you'll think it's saying something it's not. The Bible has different categories. There's prophesies, stories, cultural laws etc Everything isn't God telling people to do those things. I don't know your beliefs but it doesn't fully make sense to believe in Christ/God but not the Bible, unless you believe in another kind, you can't have a close relationship or truly follow Christ if you don't fully know his morals or have a spiritual understanding of creation.

Its interesting how ive never had demonic dreams and sleep paralysis till I renounced though. The warfare has been very, VERY intense.

    I tried lots of spiritual practices and plant medicines over the years. At the time I thought I was gonna find truth and healing if I kept going. Sometimes it was a fun night or moment...But... I never felt happy, fulfilled, or like I was finding any real answers. Finding Jesus in August 2023...I feel a deep inner peace and I don't have to seek or chase it down. I'm lucky I didn't face any attacks when I converted. I faced attacks in the past but not anymore! I say a lot of prayers. Prayer is my favorite activity, a special time to spend with God. It's so freeing! May everyone get to know Jesus, and experience the Holy Spirit!

      I think you're reading this wrong.
      Jesus told His disciples (and ultimately all His followers to come) to take the gospel around the world. Preaching the good news and making disciples Matthew 28:18-20.
      Spiritual growth is absolutely necessary for every single believer. It's not saying our salvation wasn't enough to make us God's children.
      In fact, people assume that after salvation there's nothing else.
      1 Timothy 2:4 says God's will is for all men to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth. Meaning we have to grow in knowledge of God.
      We can't grow on our own, this is where discipleship and spiritual training comes in.
      It is God's people helping and training us so that we in turn can help raise people to do God's work

      So many advanced yogis have the deepest respect and reverence for Jesus. In Kriya yoga, he is part of the lineage of masters who helped people come to God. Paramahansa Yogananda wrote with great reverence on Jesus and his teachings, showing parallels between his approach and that of the great Indian masters. This doesn't make absolutely any sense. True kriyabans are some of the most humble, loving, kind and God-fearing people on this planet. If God were to renounce them, there would be no justice.

    My boyfriend in Cameroon was thesame in the sense that he is a gifted writer, very creative man. However when he was working on his first novel called Ancestral Pride, he started manifesting strange habits. He will go on writing for days without eating, drinking water, nothing. It was like he was in a trance. He started talking about this divine being he called his muse that will direct him what to write. To cut the story short he ran mad and it took weeks of intensive prayer to get him back.The devil and evil comes to us in the most mudane way ever and he perverses our gifts and destroys but so long as God lives and reigns he will never succeed to steal any sheep from God's flock.

    Thank you for sharing your story! I have similar experiences. I was in samanizm, yoga, meditation and eastern religion. I opend myself, my mind to bad spirits, so I had crazy demonic attack. I heared almost audibly satan and his demons telling me "jump out from the window" etc. They wanted to kill me. I was sitting on the toilet, because it was the furthest from the window in our dorm🙈 During that time my friend came to Christ in a different city and she started to pray for me. She has never really told me the gospel, she was "just" praying. I think she saw, that I was so much into these crazy spiritual things, that just the Holy Spirit can show me the truth. Long story short. After 2 years of crazy spiritual experiences I came to Christ at a christian camp and it changed everything in my life!🙌 Yoga seemed to be so good and safe, but it is not!

    I also participated in Ayahuasca ceremonies and it caused me to go deep in the New Age (crystals, manifestation, psychedelics etc.)
    The first time was exactly as they said, being cradled by a mother’s love and was intense and positive. I then decided to go to a 2-day ceremony and it was terrifying as I felt spirits all around me. After the ceremony I kept seeing myself get into a car accident in my mind. I also started having sleep paralysis and nightmares of being in a pitch black room and hearing a screeching scream along with feeling for the first time in my life like I wasn’t mentally grounded. I asked the shamans helper and they couldn’t give me a good answer for why I was having the sleep paralysis/nightmares. I had experienced demonic oppression so I recognized that this was not from God. The whole reason I went to the ceremony initially was to get rid of this intense fear of the demonic from a previous experience. I asked God for the truth and I had a dream where I saw the people who were in ceremony with me heading down a spiral staircase. A downward spiral! God has since showed me that I have nothing to fear with Jesus!

And I’m probably doing it wrong cause I’ve only ever done it at home in my living room. the videos I watch on RUclips usually say “yoga for lower back healing” “stretching for lower back and sciatica “ but I do it on a yoga Mat. Can you help me ? Should I just look up videos that are named “stretching for the lower back” and throw away the yoga Mat????

I want to be respectful when I speak about this because its extremely sensitive and I want to make that clear. I come from a background where we speak to ancestors quiet a lot and we use sage to connect with them among other things. I have lost two of my loved ones to cancer (Father and Brother) and both times I asked the Lord for healing but didn't get the answer the way I had hoped. Its really hard to be a Christian sometimes and stand for what I believe in especially when I am home, I find myself walking in ways that I know are contrary to the word of God but the Lord is so gracious and loving towards me still that He has recently started speaking to me through his word, as in sending me scriptures in my sleep, I mean at one point I argued with Him when He gave me a scripture I told him it wasn't there as if I Know the bible from start to finish, so I woke up and immediately went to go find that scripture and when I saw it I repented. Thank you for sharing your experiences I have learnt so much, and please pray for my family.

    I practice yoga, I guess what you would call Western yoga. And it's been great for me physically. It's not the first time I have heard of someone saying yoga is demonic. But I've always believed they must be practicing some other type of yoga like very traditional as I was aware of the origins of yoga.
    But after this I now realize I was making every excuse to hold onto my continuation of practicing yoga. That in itself was very eye opening and telling on why am I clinging onto it so much that I refuse to hear anything against it. And that rattled me.
    Coupled with the fact that I cannot trust my powers of discernment regarding this, I know submit to the absolute truth that yoga is demonic and I will be turning away from the practice.

But I think a big part of overcoming that - is walking in your true calling - and also - realizing that what matters is not who you are to those people but rather who you are to Jesus - to the Most High God. His validation is what truly makes us significant.

    I don’t understand why believers fight this understanding that the practice is not Christian so badly! Anything that someone tells me could even possibly be demonic and a hindrance to my relationship with God will always cause me to run from it! I just don’t want to be so proud that I can’t hear and steadily falling away from Abba! I pray I’m never seduced away!

    I've always loved yoga while being Christian. At the back of my mind I knew of its origins and what the postures represents, but i also fooled myself into saying it can be Christian yoga as long as I believe in God. For me it was mainly to relax and as a copying mechanism that led to deeper meditation and burning incense which slowly substituted the time i should've been meditating on the Word of God and worshiping him alone and no other Gods. Thank you for this, what an eye opener

    Oh how I so love this testimony and so many others that are being shared on the new age practice. The deception is literally is now everywhere. We are being fed subliminally as well (exercises ads, diet ads, tweak this and changed that about yourself it starts in the subconscious mind and all the yadi yada.. we so need these conversations. Thank you Stephanie ❤

    Mannnn Listen. This is why as Christians we must ALWAYS pray for unbelievers and never count anyone out. This brother's testimony is powerful, especially in spiritual insights of drugs/ mind altering substances.
    I'm a 27 year old from London and struggled with Weed for years until I found Salvation in Jesus 2 years ago. Weed is the only drug I've ever consumed but have been offered and tempted to try others - but I always said no because even before finding Christ, my instincts would tell me that It'd be a terrible idea. so it's ALWAYS left me curious to what it's like. Your testimony brother helped alot and affirmed my convictions to never try it, and gave a peak into what the craze is all about and the demonic nature of it. Knowledge is power, when God delivers people such as this man who's seen some things, it's for the purpose not only to warn unbelievers but give insight to Christians in how the enemy operates. KEEP IT UP BROTHER! Stay in Jesus's righteous, humility and love - and you'll never fail.

    Oh gosh, this talk about ayahuasca just came in time, because I was reading someone's book and they were talking about this 'enlightenment' immediately! I thought to myself that I needed that. I haven't taken it but subconsciously my prayer life has taken a hit cause in my mind I've been thinking that there's something better out there. but seeing someone who was in deep with new age practice turning around and choosing Christ, means the grass isn't greener on the other side.

    Thanks so much Pastor Stephanie! I remember when your video came up and I didn't want to listen at the time because I was also involved in new age practices. I just remember your video on African spirituality and I tried to avoid watching but either that first day I saw your video or another time I decided to listen. At that time I kept seeing videos that I felt were trying to show me the truth. I now know it was rhe Holy Spirit leading me to your video and videos like yours. That African Spirituality video really opened my eyes and allowed me to see what I didn't realize before. I had no idea that I was partaking in idol worship and that God wanted me to see the truth. I definitely had a few supernatural things happen that I know now was the Holy Spirit leading me back to God. Thank you so much for making your videos it really helped and am back on God's side! It was a struggle and I've definitely gone through my own spiritual warfare but I'm back where I belong. I'm following God and never turning back. I'm so thankful and I pray others are moved by your other videos and this testimony to give their lives to God. God bless you❤🙏🏾❤️

    Praise God! This was an amazing testimony. Thank you, Jaaron, for sharing. I am grateful that I don't know what/ have never heard of 99.9999% of the new age practices that were spoken about in this video. I have done a little yoga off and on for several years. I was convicted when Jaaron said that the different yoga positions are bowing down to worship false gods. I won't be doing yoga anymore. Amen for knowledge and understanding. I have a close friend who has turned away from Jesus and is doing new age practices. I pray that she will truly surrender her life to Christ Jesus as Lord and trust him through all of life's trials no matter how hard they may be. In Jesus' name, Amen. Thank both for this episode.

    Thank you so much for this! Thank you for your vulnerability! I too recently as of December 2023 burned my tarot cards and came back to Jesus I was told specifically in word to “Burn those cards” I am so grateful after 7years in the New Age and being able to completely release it. Jesus called me to follow him and I’ve always had a relationship with God but the missing puzzle piece was Jesus. There has been so much my eyes have been opened to since hearing “burn those cards”. Praise God for not forgetting about me, not forsaking me, and calling me to a life of using my gift as a prophet to spread the word of God and share what the new age is doing to deceive you. In Jesus name AMEN! 🙏🏾

      As someone who is indeed spiritual, I don't and never will NEVER mess with that realm. I always say this: I don't believe in satan, but I don't ef with him EVER. I feel like tarot cards are ridiculous, and not of God. I won't touch them! God is always in charge & in my heart. God is Love. Many in the spiritual community don't GET it. I respect people in the religious community, although I don't drink THEIR Kool aid, either. I like to hear all points, though and y'all have my respect. Thanks for listening.

    wow thank you so much 🙏🏼 i’ve been deep into the rabbit hole searching for answers about this life, religion, and god. i did all the yoga, incantations, devotions and meditations these past 2 years and i’ve always felt my heart saying different, it’s a respect and fear i have in my heart about the most high God . listening to this video makes me think i spiritually awoke and went through tribulations so that i may better my relationship with the most high & help others with their faith and spiritual needs.

    Wow! The wisdom in this video. Pastor Stephanie, thank you for being obedient to the voice of God to teach on these things. I watched your previous videos on the topic and was really blessed but this one, this just topped them all. I have been practicing Yoga for exercise and what you both just said has put me off. I wasn’t involved in any spiritual aspect of it, and I started it because of an illness I developed but after this video, I’m deleting everything to do with yoga and trusting Hod for me speed and full recovery in Jesus name.

  • @mokenmarsai
    @mokenmarsai 9 месяцев назад +2

    Thank you for sharing this. I grew up as a Christian but I always had many questions. Like the interviewee I always wanted to get the data and balance the spiritual with the practical. I've never done ayahuasca or mushrooms. But I did dabble in the new age for awhile.
    I had an experience a year ago that I simply cannot explain. Where I experienced that feeling of unconditional love. And saw many visions of my past and possible future. The experience lasted three days. At the pinnacle of my experience family thought I was possessed. And tried to get them to see 'the light'. But what I remember in that experience was that I all I wanted was to choose love over fear. I felt as if God was speaking to me through everything and everyone. I had a clear understanding of who Jesus was and for a moment I thought I was Jesus. But then I heard a clear voice that said 'it's not about you' 😅 and then I understood. I saw the duality of life. How my actions affected people both good and bad. I was rushed to the hospital and I was able to 'calm' down by realizing I had to surrender and trust that the people around me loved me. I heard the voices of my friends and family telling me that they loved me and to keep going. I was fighting hard not to give into fear.
    The doctors kept asking if I took mushrooms and all I could do was say that three days prior I smoked some weed and I found myself on an involuntary fast. Because I was unable to keep food down (this was also during lent, I didn't know that at the time).
    I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and put on medication. Which was a surprise to my psychiatrist who I had been seeing for five years. When I described my experience to her she said in all her years of experience she has never had a patient describe their experience with mania in that way. And it sounded like a mushroom trip. But again, the only thing in my system was THC. Which effects may have been heightened due to me fasting for three days.
    While in recovery I found singing helpful whenever I felt the fear seeping in. Especially Christian music and Bob Marley. While in the hospital there were others in for similar episodes and I sang with them.
    When I got home I was very sensitive to the energy around me. Colours were brighter. I saw art in a new way. My heart felt wide open. I actually felt my heartbeat for the first in a long while. I thought it was in my head until my mother mentioned if I noticed my hands weren't cold anymore. Which they had been for years.
    But I still have so many questions. How do you determine the false light from the real light? For me looking back it was almost like a battle I was fighting was between love and fear. And I chose love. I've always felt an intimate connection with God that I couldn't describe to others. Some of the visions I saw came to pass and I have been reconnected with my gifts especially music. It was like a high I couldn't describe. Love I never experienced. All I could do in the moment was the trust God's guidance.
    I was 33 when this happened. And after that experience I have been moving away from the new age. And have been working on my relationship with God.
    But there are still so many questions of what actually happened. Was it an attack or deliverance?

    So happy to have you back posting Pastor Stephanie. God uses your voice and mouth constantly to bring the truth to His people.
    I’m thankful to the Lord for bringing brother Jaaron out of bondage and setting him free. I pray that the work that He’s started in him He will continue and fully transform his whole life in Jesus name. It’s important for us to be able to identify the deception of the enemy in our every day life, the Bible does tell us we perish because of lack of knowledge so I’m grateful for this new knowledge that I had no idea of. Especially the mention of the black panther movie which I didn’t link together.
    God works in mysterious ways so I pray He uses this testimony for His good in Jesus name!
    Excited for the next video.

    Those who didn’t grow up in the church are drawn to ayahuasca and many believe all spirits are good.
    I’d love to see him on Angela Scaffidis Heaven and Healing channel.

    Thank you so much for this. Not that I needed more confirmation, but it totally aligns with what the Lord showed me concerning this practice. I was really into yoga and got into as a way to stretch, the more I did it people began to tell me they loved my "practice," and I was about to become certified. By his grace, the Lord stopped me when I took my youngest son with me to a class, and he enjoyed it. That same night, the Holy Spirit woke me up and showed me the very thing you mentioned; how we are submitting ourselves to the various gods& goddesses of Hinduism. I wept so much b/c I was like how did I miss that. I immediately disconnected from that community and threw away/deleted all the yoga videos I had. I prayed and just asked the Lord to help me find alternatives that were pleasing that I could do to stretch and work on flexibility. I'm just thankful he loves us enough to let His spirit reveal hidden things to us and draw us back to Him!

    This young man’s life was save because the Lord found it well to speak through You AND open the ears and eyes of Jaaron in The LORDS perfect timing.
    This is ministering to so many of us in many ways.
    There is a beautiful conviction and maybe many convictions for some of us… Lord, help each of us to hear what we are supposed to hear and leave what we are not supposed to hear yet.
