Why do we need to have revelation into the dark or occult areas of our family lines? I believe that pagan and occult practices have occurred in our families as far back as the beginning of time. Since involvement in the occult was and is active in our families, that involvement created open doors for the enemy or Satan and his army to go through. Once through the doors, havoc, destruction, torment, and a tendency to commit other sins are evident in our lives. The Lord wants all of us to walk in holiness and purity. We are the bride of Christ. As the bride of Christ, we have to walk in purity and holiness. Hebrews 12:14 Make every effort to live in peace with all men and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord."
