We received some gifts clothes/ bedding from family who dont like me and are involved in occult stuff cant return it but should I pray over it before using it?

dont want to sound like a nut here but I just want to be cautious

I would plead the blood of Jesus over them and anoint them.

u sound afraid ,,j/b,,is it nu stuff??

[hind'sfeet 1]

Def. pray over it!! Why would someone who doesn't like you and are involved in the occult give you stuff?! It's not innocent what they did. They prob. put a curse on the stuff.

jus remeba ur the head,, not tale u effect the enviroment and all around u,

[lola21st 2]

Amen! Greater is He that is in you and your family than he that is in those clothes! Stand in your authority. I just left this scripture for another member but I think it applies here as well Psalm 27:1-2 -

1 The LORD is my light and my salvation—
whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the stronghold of my life—
of whom shall I be afraid?

The enemy is only as alive as you make him. If we truly believe that he's been stripped of all of his power and the scripture that D shared about how greater God is in us than anyone in the world, then no matter who gave you those gifts, no harm can come nigh your dwelling.

[God] disarmed the principalities and powers that were ranged against us and made a bold display and public example of them, in triumphing over them in Him and in it [the cross]. (Col 2:15 AMP)

The scripture I heard when I read your post HK was..."When a man’s ways please the LORD, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him". (Proverbs 16:7)

I say, accept the gifts and move on with your life...Psalm 91 says you can.

C has spoken ,, D ,,in charge of takin up offerings,,

[lola21st 2]

I agree with Cholette, we have to remember Whose we are and what we've inherited.

I know of a deliverance minister who gave away an asset of his because he believed someone had cursed it....seriously????

I agree that no weapon formed against you will prosper and that includes clothing and gifts. If you feel better pray over them with a blessing and don't forget to bless the giver. No harm to pray over them and it may put your mind at ease.

Love in Jesus,

Connie

Lola,

I have heard of people doing that also. What they fail to realize is that all blessings are from the Lord! Good post!
