Numbers 23:1 And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab. 2 And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods.
Question: So, if the people bowed down to gods of wood and stone, how can David say, by inspiration of the Holy Ghost, that they were worshiping devils, and the next logical questions is this: Are all forms of false worship, in fact devil worship, to a greater or lesser extent? The answer to this question must be given in clear lines, for earth’s inhabitants must be made aware of what is at stake, as the world is hurtling towards the mark of the beast, the epitome, and the zenith of all false worship since the beginning of time.
When persons leave the true worship of God, and attend services that are not endorsed by the Bible, they too will most likely never see any live devils in the congregation, for the modus operandi of devils is to basically remain hidden from view. In fact, this format of remaining hidden from view is also adopted by holy angels too. When you hear a pastor, elder, or lay person say that the presence of God and holy angels is here, they say so by faith, but in reality, the immediate presence of all holy beings is beyond our gaze, for the most part.
Yet, God receives the true worship that is given to Him and holy angels are present to do God’s bidding as He directs. The same format of being present, yet hidden is also true of devils, who often pervade the atmosphere where false worship takes place. And satan, and his hosts are there to receive all the worship that is rendered at the venue in question. Thus, whenever, and wherever you have erroneous doctrines, and concepts, philosophies, and errors being presented by those who may know better, the worship of devils is taking place.
Deuteronomy 32:16 They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger. 17 They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.
May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
