I had promised Joseph that I would be at the opening of his new dental practice. Thanks to Governor Ronald Reagan, for two years only, foreigners if they could pass the exams would get their license.

Joseph passed and had started his own practice. When I make a promise, I fully intend to keep it.

But I felt that it was okay this time to break that promise. I asked to see Joseph for lunch, and told him that I was now a Christian, and I would no longer see him. He did not believe me, but I was adamant. I said to him; "Joseph you are still very charming and all that, but you have lost the power you had over me. It is like you have hypnotized me all this time, but now I feel free from you it's over! Go back to your family.”

I have always felt that I have witnessed to him and his family in a powerful way as I could do now, what I had not been able to do for nine years, and that is to never see him again, and I never again have.

I went to see my fortune-teller friend, to tell her that what she was doing was wrong. I told her what I had found out for myself, but it was falling on deaf ears. Janet said that her gift was from God and that was that.

So I stopped seeing her.

Nine years of my life I had totally wasted, because I wanted to believe in what she said, what some cards had promised me. Now that I have my brain back, I can't believe that I fell for this.

When a fortune-teller tells you for instance that you are going to make a trip overseas, you can't pack your suitcase, you have to wait, to see for it to come to pass. Well then you know!

You then know it for yourself and you don't need a fortune-teller to tell you. So since you can't count on what you have been told anyway, the whole thing is a waste right? I am now able to see this, for now my eyes have been open.

I personally never paid for having the tarot cards read, but I know of people who did, and paid plenty. These people don't have a gift from God. If they did, they would have to be right, one hundred percent, and they never are.

Making them, the bible says, false prophets. Jeremiah; 14-14

A friend of mine used to buy every month three-horoscope books.

She would always ask me to "translate,” to put it into words she could understand. I would ask Melba, which of these three books she wanted to believe in, for all three books told something completely different.

You will find that you will keep reading horoscopes, until you find one that says what you like to hear, it "fits you perfectly," the author hit it right on the nose, and from that point on you are hooked.

A man told me; "Oh I don't believe that nonsense you read in your horoscope, I just read it for fun." I said; "If that is true, than why do you read it first, before anything else?"

He looked at me surprised and said; "You don't know me, so how can you know this?" How indeed!

There are numerous scriptures warning us about the occult. I will give you several so you can read them for yourselves.

Deuteronomy; 18 (10-13)

Leviticus; 19 (26) 19 (31), 20 (6), 20 (27)

Isaiah: 47 (12-14), 47 (9), (8-19), 44 (24-25)

You see that the Lord means it, and He has good reasons to tell you, not to get into these practices. It is easy to get under demonic control this way.

Any attempt to try and look into the future, is forbidden and is dangerous. It is a hindrance to your spiritual growth.

Tarot cards, pendulum, tea leaves, fortune-tellers, crystal balls, it is all the same! As I mentioned earlier, you have to wait and see if it comes to pass anyway, and then you know and don't need anyone to tell you anything.

The good or the bad news what these people tell you, could have consequences for many years to come, you may happily be waiting for something good to come to pass, or you may live in fear waiting for the bad things you were told would happen, and they may.

When I told Joseph that it was all over between us, he told me, what he had been told years earlier. He had visited a gypsy when he was only eighteen years old. He had gone with some friends and they went just for a joke. This man was told three things, and over the years two of these had come to pass. He was now convinced that the third thing would happen also.

He was by now forty-five years old, twenty-seven years after he first visited the gypsy. I knew what that gypsy had told him so many years ago, and what had already come to pass.

He had told me that he would divorce his wife and marry me, for he had been told that he would marry a second time.

I said; "Wait a minute, she never told you that you would get a divorce, just that you would marry twice, and she never said that you would marry me. Don't you see that you are trying to make her prophecy come to pass yourself?"

Don't let your life be taken over by these so-called fortune-tellers.

It will put you in bondage somehow.
