1st Samuel 28:6 And when Saul enquired of the Lord, the Lord answered him not, neither by dreams, nor by Urim, nor by prophets. 7 Then said Saul unto his servants, Seek me a woman that hath a familiar spirit, that I may go to her, and enquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman that hath a familiar spirit at Endor.
Some persons may now be wondering why this third point pertaining to atmosphere, is important, as it pertains to the battle for our minds. The reason is, that there are places on this planet where there are higher concentrations of evil spirits, than at other places. And if we were to visit those places, without a just cause, the likelihood of direct angelic infusions, go up exponentially.
When Saul had visited the witch of Endor, he went to a place where there was a very high concentration of evil spirits in the atmosphere, and he suffered a very severe, and direct infusion, from which he was never able to recover. Conversely, when David went to hide out with the prophet Samuel, there was a high concentration of holy angels and God’s presence in the atmosphere, and therefore, when Saul tried to break through the invisible shield, he could not.
The reason is that in this instance Saul experienced a direct infusion, in so much that he started to sing praises and prophesy even though he had come for a different, ulterior purpose.
1st Samuel 19: 19 And it was told Saul, saying, Behold, David is at Naioth in Ramah. 20 And Saul sent messengers to take David: and when they saw the company of the prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as appointed over them, the Spirit of God was upon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied. 21 And when it was told Saul, he sent other messengers, and they prophesied likewise. And Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they prophesied also.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
