>> Verses to Scan (NIV)
- Isaiah 44:24-26 “This is what the Lord says-your Redeemer, who formed you in the womb: I am the Lord, who has made all things, who alone stretched out the heavens, who spread out the earth by myself, who foils the signs of false prophets and makes fools of diviners, who overthrows the learning of the wise and turns it into nonsense, who carries out the words of his servants and fulfills the predictions of his messengers.”
- Daniel 2:27-28 Daniel replied, “No wise man, enchanter, magician or diviner can explain to the king the mystery he has asked about, but there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries.”

>> Thoughts to Ponder
- People who study the stars write horoscopes. The Bible would call this practice divination (using supernatural power as a means to finding answers about the future). Throughout the Scriptures, God always said no to this. (For example, Leviticus 20:6; Isaiah 8:19–20; 47:13–15; Jeremiah 8:2; 10:2; 27:9–10). God is never one to change his standards just because an activity is accepted by a majority of people today.
