God
the source of all power
Deuteronomy
4v24 For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a
jealous God.
4v35 Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightest know that
the LORD he is God; there is none else beside him.
Isaiah
44v8 Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee
from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses.
Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not
any.
Isaiah
45v5 I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no
God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
45v6 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from
the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and
there is none else.
45v7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace,
and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
God
brings calamity
Exodus
32v14 And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought
to do unto his people.
1
Kings 21v21 Behold, I will bring evil upon thee, and will
take away thy posterity, and will cut off from Ahab him that
pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up and left
in Israel,
1
Kings 22v23 Now therefore, behold, the LORD hath put a
lying spirit in the mouth of all these thy prophets, and the
LORD hath spoken evil concerning thee.
Job
1v21 And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and
naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD
hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.
Job
2v10 But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the
foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the
hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did
not Job sin with his lips.
Isaiah
45v7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace,
and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Amos
3v6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people
not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD
hath not done it?
Micah
1v12 For the inhabitant of Maroth waited carefully for
good: but evil came down from the LORD unto the gate of Jerusalem.
Hebrews
12v5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh
unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening
of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:
12v6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth
every son whom he receiveth.
12v7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with
sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
12v8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers,
then are ye bastards, and not sons.
Demons
are powerless idols
Deuteronomy
32v17 They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods
whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your
fathers feared not.
32v21 They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not
God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and
I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people;
I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.
1
Corinthians 8v4 As concerning therefore the eating of
those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we
know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there
is none other God but one.
8v5 For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven
or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)
8v6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are
all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom
are all things, and we by him.
1
Corinthians 10v19 What say I then? that the idol is any
thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any
thing?
10v20 But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice,
they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not
that ye should have fellowship with devils.
10v21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of
devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of
the table of devils.
Revelation
9v20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by
these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands,
that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and
silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can
see, nor hear, nor walk:
Sickness
Deuteronomy
28v60 Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases
of Egypt, which thou wast afraid of; and they shall cleave
unto thee.
28v61 Also every sickness, and every plague, which is not
written in the book of this law, them will the LORD bring
upon thee, until thou be destroyed.
Matthew
8v16 When the even was come, they brought unto him many
that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits
with his word, and healed all that were sick:
8v17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias
the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare
our sicknesses.
John
9v1 And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind
from his birth.
9v2 And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin,
this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
John
11v3 Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord,
behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.
11v4 When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not
unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God
might be glorified thereby.
1
Corinthians 11v29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily,
eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the
Lord's body.
11v30 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and
many sleep.
Unclean
/ evil spirits from God
Judges
9v23 Then God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and
the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem dealt treacherously
with Abimelech:
1
Samuel 16v14 But the Spirit of the LORD departed from
Saul, and an evil spirit from the LORD troubled him.
16v15 And Saul's servants said unto him, Behold now, an evil
spirit from God troubleth thee.
16v16 Let our lord now command thy servants, which are before
thee, to seek out a man, who is a cunning player on an harp:
and it shall come to pass, when the evil spirit from God is
upon thee, that he shall play with his hand, and thou shalt
be well.
Temptation
comes from within
Genesis
8v21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD
said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more
for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil
from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every
thing living, as I have done.
Jeremiah
17v9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately
wicked: who can know it?
Matthew
15v18 But those things which proceed out of the mouth
come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.
15v19 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders,
adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:
James
1v13 Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of
God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth
he any man:
1v14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his
own lust, and enticed.
1v15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin:
and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
