Example

10. 2 Kings 21:2-6 He did evil in the eyes of the LORD, following the detestable practices of the nations the LORD had driven out before the Israelites. He rebuilt the high places his father Hezekiah had destroyed; he also erected altars to Baal and made an Asherah pole, as Ahab king of Israel had done. He bowed down to all the starry hosts and worshiped them. He built altars in the temple of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, “In Jerusalem I will put my Name.” In the two courts of the temple of the LORD, he built altars to all the starry hosts. He sacrificed his own son in the fire, practiced divination, sought omens, and consulted mediums and spiritists. He did much evil in the eyes of the LORD, arousing his anger.

 

Bonus

Colossians 2:8-10 See to it that no one enslaves you through philosophy and empty deceit according to human tradition, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to the Messiah, because all the essence of deity inhabits him in bodily form. And you have been filled by him, who is the head of every ruler and authority.

    Superstitions can be innocent looking but some have been with people for years since childhood. I don’t know how to talk about it but I want to say it can seem like a path to coping with a lot of problems or even wanting things to work out.

    It can start to get very powerful or hard to give up. Then it is a unchecked negative force in a person’s life.

    I hope you will pray for many people that don’t understand the addiction or power of it.

    sports (wanting favorite team to win)
    good luck (not wanting to change or miss out on something)
    change (wanting life to go the same as it has for years or recently)
    loss (can’t deal with loss and doing things to bring good luck or something to protect against bad things happening)
    anger (wishing bad on someone, some people have tried hexes and curses)
