And when they say to you, "Seek those who are mediums and wizards, who whisper and mutter," should not a people seek their God? Should they seek the dead on behalf of the living?
Heavenly Father, Almighty God, I praise You! I give thanks to You for You are good! Your mercy endures forever, hallelujah! Who can utter Your mighty acts? We all have sinned with our fathers, committing iniquity, doing wickedly. We did not understand Your wonders and had forgotten the multitude of Your mercies. Nevertheless, You saved us for Your name's sake. You gave Your perfect Son Jesus to ransom our souls and pluck us from the mirey pit. Yet many still provoke You to anger with their deeds by joining themselves to the evil one by making sacrifices to the dead. There are many who believe the lies of mediums and wizards thinking they deliver divine revelation. The best that could be obtained from these whisperers who are perverted prophets is garbled mutterings. Convict and bring repentance to those who use necromancy to conjure up spirits of the dead to influence events and predict the future. Your word Lord does not teach calling on saints or pleading for help from them. You are the Christ who is set before us as mediator, atoning sacrifice, the great high priest and intercessor, to You alone receive all the glory. Lord, open the eyes of the blind who falsely worship goddesses, saints
Psalm 106
