THE STRONG DELUSION (Part 1)

They didn’t fall into judgment overnight…they drifted into it, one compromise at a time.

1 Kings 11:33 says: “Because they have forsaken Me, and have worshipped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians… and have not walked in My ways, to do that which is right in My eyes, and to keep My statutes and My judgments…”

Let that sink in. The reason for judgment wasn’t ignorance and it wasn’t weakness. What it was, were forsaking YAHUAH ’s ways and mixing in worship that He never commanded.

Ashtoreth, also known as Asherah/Easter was a fertility goddess. Her worship was tied to rituals, symbols and seasonal celebrations that looked spiritual… but were completely pagan. Today, many are doing the same thing calling it holy, calling it worship, while ignoring the very commands of YAHUAH.

Deuteronomy 12:30–31 warns us clearly: “Take heed… that you do not inquire after their gods, saying, ‘How did these nations serve their gods? I will do likewise.’ You shall not worship YAHUAH your ALOAH in that way.”

Father never said to mix His truth with man-made traditions and He never said to rename pagan practices and make them acceptable. He said don’t do it.

Jeremiah 10:2 says, “Learn not the way of the nations…” and yet… how many have learned them anyway?

This isn’t about attacking people it is about calling YAHUAH ’s people back, back to His appointed times, back to His instructions and to worshiping Him in spirit and in truth (John 4:24).

Leviticus 23 doesn’t say “Jewish feasts.” It says “the feasts of YAHUAH” Passover, Unleavened Bread & Firstfruits. These are the days that point directly to Messiah—His death, His burial and His resurrection. Not substitutes or replacements and not traditions added later.

The question isn’t, “Is it meaningful to me?” The question is, “Did YAHUAH command it?” The only thing that matters, is obedience.

“If you love Me, keep My commandments.” — John 14:15

This is the hour to come out of mixture and stop blending truth with tradition. We must stop repeating what Scripture never instructed and to return fully, boldly and unapologetically to the ways of YAHUAH.

Shalom beloved,
