Questions About Soul Ties?

[HisW0rd]

Is there a possibility that you could have a soul tie without willingly allowing it? I know that you can get soul ties from intercourse, emotionally, and spiritually.

My question is what if someone was lusting over you, thinking about you, or anything that would connect them to your presence, could that be a soul tie?

I was watching a biography about a young woman who was one of the most popular sex symbols. When I was watching it something said to me all those men lusting after her, can you imagine the soul ties she had to deal with?

I was a victim in sexual abuse and when I called a prayer line to pray against something I was dealing with (lust from other people), this lady started to bind spirits off me that I had no clue I had. I didnt get offended but I was curious. She seemed like a very anointed woman of God so I just dont think this was a mistake. I also heard how these spirits would linger on us and I notice how throughout the years men treated me until now.

Hmmm

Proverbs 26:2 You have as little to fear from an undeserved curse as from the dart of a wren or the swoop of a swallow.

 

[Keemah]

I know it is possible to have soul ties from sexual abuse, as I've also been abused in the past and have had soul ties cut through prayer from these instances, but I've never heard of it from someone just lusting after you; although it is quite possible.

*I wrote this a while back*

A lot of people don’t realize the importance of asking the Lord to get rid of all our soul ties. This was a necessity for me in order to continue my recovery process of being sexually abused.

What are soul ties and are the biblical references?

Soul ties are ties that comes from one person soul that enters (or join together) into another persons soul. Usually this can happen sexually, spiritually, or emotionally. You can have godly soul ties or ungodly soul ties. Usually women who have been sexually, emotionally, or spiritually abuse have ungodly soul ties. Some people don’t even realize the importance of getting rid of these negative ties. I saw a change in myself almost dramatically when I ask the Lord to take these ties away from me. Some may require fasting but I urge you to do this if you haven’t.

Here are some scriptures that show us some soul ties.

Ephesians 5:31 “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.”

Matthew 19:5 and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? 6 So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.”

Saul and David were acquaintances…..
1 Samuel 18:1 Now when he had finished speaking to Saul, the soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.

1 Corinthians 6:16-17 (NKJV) (You can read verses 12-20)
16 Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For “the two,” He says, “shall become one flesh.”17 But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.

Matthew 18:19 (AMP)
19Again I tell you, if two of you on earth agree (harmonize together, make a symphony together) about whatever [anything and [everything] they may ask, it will come to pass and be done for them by My Father in heaven.

Acts 4:32 (NKJV)
Now the multitude of those who believed were of one heart and one soul; neither did anyone say that any of the things he possessed was his own, but they had all things in common.

Genesis 34:1-3 (AMP)
1NOW DINAH daughter of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob, went out [unattended] to see the girls of the place.
2And when Shechem son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he seized her, lay with her, and humbled, defiled, and disgraced her.
3But his soul longed for and clung to Dinah daughter of Jacob, and he loved the girl and spoke comfortingly to her young heart's wishes.


I’m sure there is a lot of other scriptures but these are the ones I know.

Soul ties are complete crap! It's a lie! There is no such thing! I am sick pf people thinking that emotional ties with people are "soul ties"! I had someone tell me that because someone I loved send me a stuffed frog, I had to get rid of the frog to break a soul tie. And I had to also burn pictures of me and my ex-fiance and cut of all ties with them and old friends and people who had taken me in when I was homeless because they were "soul ties". It's a load of crap.

 

[Always in His Presence]

Sorry - not one of those scriptures describe what you are suggesting.

I'll just agree to disagree and bow out.

 

[NacDan]

"Soul Ties" certainly sounds spiritual. However, I cannot find anything in the Scriptures to validate this concept. If you ask me, it's some of the Advisory's best work.

Well sorry to hear that, I wasnt broken free from my sickness until after I asked the Lord to remove all soul ties. Wow this is shocking lol

Soul ties is a new age concept. Curses, generational curses are real, altho I've seen nothing biblical to support that both parties would be affected, but most likely the one doing the lusting would incur the ties. Jesus said the thought alone would be enough to commit adultry with that person, thereby making the two one in that person's mind. I can't see it affecting the other person however, unless your looking at it as a vodoo thing that the thoughts are consciously given to that person, but unless that person recipricated with adulterous thoughts themselves it wouldn't be something that would incur the curses/ cause and effect that goes with it.

 

[ANM29]

The word trinity is not in scripture either along with a few other phrases I hear, but we do know that they all equal one.

Why is is a sin to have sex with someone you are not married to?..Because you become one with that person...Spirits pass on to you and you can pick up habits that person had that you may not even be aware of.

Why should we not have porn laying around our house even though we are not watching it?.....If soul ties and connections to ungodly spirits do not exist..Then it should be ok to buy porn, drugs and and just let it lay around your houre..I mean you are not going to touch it, and it can do no harm just 'hanging out' even though you are trying to go higher in God.....

The enemy wants you to think it is ok to hang around all kind of unrighteousness and you want get any ties to it. yeah, go ahaead and hang out with exes who you claim you want to rid yourself of an not have sex with..But, let him keep sleeping over to your house..

I can relate to you Hisword.

Even if the term "soul ties" is not in scripture, I think it is ok to call it that and denounce and rebuke Satan and anything you feel you might still have a connection to that you can't lose.

Soul ties can also be called strongholds/curses that pass on.. if you ask me. It depends on how you are looking at it.

Terminology is not all that important when you need deliverance from something and only the power of God can do it. Who cares what you call it.It is all of Satan and he has to be rebuked...

Keep approaching God the way you feel led. If asking the Lord to remove all the ties worked, keep on doing it. I don't believe the Lord is going to not answer your prayer just because you supposedly used a term that was made up when you are crying out for help. He is awesome God and so not like man.....Thank you Lord....

 

[tturt]

Yes, I agree ANM29.

HISWORD, I was surprised when it happened to me. We'll just keep asking Yahweh to show us things and He will.

HisW0rd, you are not alone. I can relate as well. I was newly saved, had never heard anything about "soul ties" from any person and in my private prayer time God showed me how I needed to pray severing them from the older girl who molested me when I was a child, to the man who raped me when I was 16, to my adult male cousin who molested me as a teenager, to the men I voluntarily had sex with, etc. I had to pray against every soul tie and God gave me specific instructions on what to do in the natural that prophetically demonstrated what was being done in the spirit realm and it worked; I was healed and delivered emotionally and spiritually.

No one has the right to tell another person that any manner in which they shared how God has dealt with them personally was not God. You do not have to explain trying to justify your encounters and relationship with God to anyone.

What He requires of you for your personal breakthroughs is not determined on what anyone else believes, thinks, agrees with or disagrees with.

God Bless!

Pssst! I think you might mean, "adversary."

My soul is very informal and rarely wears a tie.

There is no such thing as “soul ties”—it’s a doctrine of men, not of scripture. The catchy religious-sounding phrase with its elaborate (though sometimes nebulous) accompanying creatively threaded doctrine were most likely invented to sell books or sermon cassettes and promote someone’s ministry by making them sound like they were onto some secret, hidden, novel, Gnostic-like teaching of scripture. This is precisely the technique used by cults.

For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear. 2 Tim. 4.3​

The phrase (and it’s doctrine), “soul-ties,” is neither mentioned in nor supported by scripture. When are we going to return to getting our theology from the clear teaching of scripture, not from creative slogans, TV preachers or the titles of popular books.

You need to trash the doctrine of soul-ties along with the following doctrines of me (brought over from another cancelled thread) :

“positive confession,”​

“generational curses,”
“spiritual mapping,”
“seed faith,”​

“soul times,”
“seedtime and harvest,”
“soaking prayer,”
“centering prayer,”
“prayer language,”
“prayer of Jabez,”
“slain in the Spirit,”
“standing in proxy,”
“holy laughter,”
“healing of memories,”
“binding the devil,”
“territorial demons,”
“burying the settler’s stake,”
“covenant covering,”
“the God kind of faith,”
“five-fold ministry,”
“transference of the anointing,”
“force of faith,”
“triumphalism.”​

​

None of these modern doctrines of men have the support of scripture.

I used to think that soul ties were real. Could not find Scriptural references though. The only time I heard the term was from the religious or hyper spiritual people I knew who associated every change in a person with something involving a form of spiritual oppression.

Sexual intercourse outside of marriage and sexual abuse are huge deals! Mentally and spiritually things are occurring within that person which will change them.

Speaking as both a survivor of rape and sexual abuse as well as a celibate believer, I know these things for a fact. But I don not fully believe that the negative or radical changes which happened with me are as a result of soul ties! I can see, after analysing myself, praying about it, being prayed for and attending deliverance services, that the only thing I needed to be delivered from or to have broken was the guilt I felt, the shame and the hurt. That's no soul tie. It's a reaction to what I had been through and because of Christ's cleansing blood I had a fresh start. I was not meant to live in guilt, fear or shame...that is not the promise. I was free and to begin living like that I had to refuse the enemy's lies that because of what happened to me and because of those people involved, I'd forever be tied to them, forever have baggage associated with them. I'm not!!

No where is that said in Scripture. Instead what is said is that I am a new creation, that I a free because Christ set me free. Bound? Me? I'm only bound to Christ, willingly so.

What I believe is important for believers is that we recognise that we need to address our mental functions as well as spiritual ones. Prayer and counselling work. We need to realise that sometimes the associations we have been conditioned to accept (that sexual sin is worse than others) can hamper us from living as liberated Christians. Because there is a stigma attached to sexual crimes and premarital sex, not ONLY BECAUSE they are sins but because they have been made taboo, there is so much more guilt and shame attached to a person who has come from such a background. And to explain it, to explain the oppression that's evident in some, the hurt that still shows, the anger and the behaviour changes, we've been told SOUL TIE!

NO! We need help. We need counselling, we need prayer and we need to wake up and realise that the people we think are most free in Christ were probably the worst of the lot before Him. But they didn't let the soul tie crap keep them running in circles and harbouring what is dead.


Sorry for the rant but I can't go back to believing that I am tied to someone because I was abused or because I had sex with them. Christ freed me and the only thing tying me was my guilt and believing the enemy's lies.
