divination
I have a story to share about the retreat: There was one part, when one of the older men (read: age 25 or so) was sharing his testimony, and one of the kids was doing a divination, which was expained as a ritual that can be performed with any object on a chain that releases power or something. (If somone can clarify in a comment, that would be good.)But the pendant on the end of the chain which was nothing special, was being swung back and forth, and the swinging intensified. At that moment, the speaker had all of his words cut off. He paced around for about 15 seconds in complete silence, with all of our eyes on him. Two people then prayed at the same time, one knowing what was going on and one not, and the swinging died down and then the speaker gave a powerful testimony. I did not witness the timing of the swinging, but I was there during this silence, and it seemed that everybody was silenced. Spiritual warfare is real. Our stuggle is not against flesh and blood, but against our common enemy, Satan. But God proved his superiority over Satan that day, which is an illustration of which side is truly the winning side. Let it be known that our enemy is the devil, not ourselves!
