Hi everyone!

You may well be right. God always wants us. Now it’s up to you to cooperate . I pray for you to have a fruitful journey.

That is awesome, Lily. May the Lord lead you in the right way and provide all good things to you.

Welcome to the forums, @Lily Sunflower! It's awesome to hear how God pulled you out of that forum and is leading you back to Him. He really does love you very much.

I would definitely recommend to get into the Bible, especially the Gospels and the book of Romans (one of my favorites). I find it helps not just to read a passage, but to dwell on what you're reading and explore it. Seeking God in prayer and asking Him to speak to you in scripture also helps. Jesus did all of the work necessary to get us right with God, all we have to do is to accept what He did for us by faith (John 6:29, Romans 5:1-2).

I pray your time here on CF is blessed and very encouraging, and that God will continue working in you. =)

Welcome to CF!

Hi and welcome here.

Welcome to CF, Lily, and I am thankful you were banned from that tarot forum & the occult. You can concentrate now on what truly ministers to your heart, Christian teaching from the Bible & Christian music.

"Born once, die twice; born twice die only once." Martin Luther

To better understand the above quote, read the gospel of John in the New Testament, chapter 1 & 3, asking Jesus to help you understand it.

Jesus calls each person to repent of their former way of life & believe the gospel message, the good news that Jesus is the Lord and Savior of the world. By crying out to Him to save you & forgive you of your sins & telling Him you will follow Him now & His teaching, He will do just that & you will have identified now as a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Another thing that can greatly help you is to be transformed by the renewing of the spirit of your mind. You have your mind filled with occultic evil thinking. Renounce all that in Jesus' Name & do what your heart longs for: listening to Christian music & hearing & filling your mind with teaching on the Bible, the Holy Scriptures. If you find a verse that touches you, memorize it & hide it in your heart! It will be there when you need it.

The devil doesn't like you have left his camp & will try to pull you back. Read Luke chapter 4 and Matthew 4, to see how Jesus dealt with temptations from the devil. May the Lord richly bless you with His love & power in the Holy Spirit. We will be praying for you.

Lilly - first off welcome to the Family of God!
Secondly - to the forums here!

Occult involvement is serious and will try to pull you back. I strongly urge you to find a good bible church and make as many friends there as possible. Fellowship strengthens us. I would also get ahold of Derek Prince's Foundation series and go thru it thoroughly. There are videos on line and I believe the current print version is called Foundational Truths For Christian Living. It is available from most bookstores.

Yes. He taught on that extensively.
But PLEASE - go thru the Foundation series FIRST.

Hi everyone. My name is Lily Sunflower, and this intro may be a little long, but I want to share how I believe God is working in my life.

Until yesterday, I was a moderator on a prominent tarot forum. My persona was that of a Satanist, but inside I was craving to get right with God. I would spew all kinds of occult nonsense on the forum, but when I got off of it, I would read Joyce Meyer books and listen to K-love (I love that station - the right song really does come on when you need it!). Basically, I was a confused mess.

I never got along that well with my fellow moderators, but things seemed civil and okay between us. Then yesterday, out of nowhere, I was suddenly removed from my position with absolutely no warning. I was allowed to remain a member, but I had words with my former colleagues (that I'm completely ashamed of now) and I ended up being banned.

The thing is, I had been thinking of leaving the forum for weeks, but it was almost like an addiction, and I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Now, I think that God had me forcibly removed to get me out of there! I'm not denying my role in the situation, but I truly believe that God is trying to lead me out of the occult and back to Him. So I joined this forum to get to know some great Christian people, and get myself back on track.

Thank you to everyone who read this. I hope to get to know you soon!

Hi Lily;

Thank you so much for your great advice and your prayers, @Mathetes66! I do have a favorite verse, Romans 8:38-39, because it reminds me that no matter how far away I may have gotten from God, nothing can ever separate me from His love.

Cool - I'm listening to it now! Is this your music, @Dave-W ?

Indeed it is. I wrote most of it. My wife Sharon wrote "Children on the Cutting Edge" and my soprano sax bro Dave Ulrich co-wrote "Awakened by the Wind."
