I always see 11:11 every time I look at the clock and this number always pops up and I'm not sure why. Is this from God or the devil, and how would I know?
Why does it need to be from either?
Personally, I don't believe in numerology. God reveals himself in nature, in Scripture and in Jesus, not in numbers; although if an unbeliever was heavily into numerology, he might well use it to get their attention. Just as he sent a star to lead pagan astronomers to his Son.
But if you know the Lord, he speaks to us through his word, through other Christians' lives and testimonies or occasionally, directly - not through random number patterns.
I did not ask to see it, nor am I involved in the new age at all. I just randomly see this number and I want to know why.
Maybe because the number 11 is everywhere, especially in November when we see it daily on the calendar.
Maybe you saw it coincidentally a few times and your brain now subconsciously looks for it, or a pattern?
I ignore the new age spiritual teachings on it,
Maybe. But the title of your thread is "numerology"; that is not a Christian term or something that the church teaches or practices.
but I wonder can this be from God and if so what does it mean?
Have you tried asking him, and talking to him?
Please don't call me crazy because I heard a lot of other people experience this phenomenon. The spiritual realm is very real, I just want to know what it means, as long as it's not from the devil.
I don't think you're crazy at all.
But I do think it's possible that people see what they want to see, or attach their own meanings onto things.
For example, I was playing a computer word game recently and got the score 666.
I am quite sure that if I asked, there would be some people somewhere who said that the internet is of the devil, (www = 666) and my score just confirms it. There might be others - Satanists - who would say that the devil is obviously trying to communicate with me.
It wouldn't even occur to me to ask what others think. I can make up my own mind about the internet, and it was just a score in a word game.
If I was of the opinion that every number sequence was from God and meant something, I'd look at Bible verses, because that's how he speaks to me. John 6:66 says that people didn't like Jesus' teachings and walked away from him. The 6th book of the NT is Romans; Romans 1:6 says "and you also are called to belong to Jesus Christ." The 6th book of the OT is Joshua; Joshua 1:6 says "be strong and courageous."
So I
could say, "God has sent me a 666 sequence to tell me that I am called to belong to Jesus, must not walk away from him, but must be strong and courageous."
It all depends on whether you think God communicates by numbers and how you choose to interpret numbers that we see everyday.
Then again, what is the result of you seeing these numbers?
Are you spooked/afraid? Perfect loves drives out all fear.
Have you drawn closer to God? I don't know.
The devil is a liar and a murderer who wants to destroy/corrupt our relationship with God, get us to stop seeking him or take our eyes off him. If you are now more obsessed with finding the "meaning" to these numbers than asking God and seeking his will, the devil is probably gloating.
