Real witches are coming together tonight to cast spells to harm President Donald Trump.\u00a0According to ExtraNewsFeed<\/a>, witches are circulating instructions in private witchcraft groups and throughout the Internet\u00a0detailing how to cast a spell that would\u00a0\u201cbind Trump to all who abet him.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the stroke of midnight tonight, and on the waning crescent moon days of February 24, March 26, April 24, May 23, and June 21 (the summer solstice), witches will repeat the same spells, and until Trump leaves office.<\/p>\n

ExtraNewsFeed posted the spell with a link to a witches Facebook page and media contact information for witches to be interviewed and photographed.<\/p>\n

After performing the spell, witches are instructed to:<\/p>\n

\u201cground yourself by having a good, hearty laugh, jumping up and down, clapping your hands, stomping your feet, and having a bite to eat. Grounding is very important\u2014don\u2019t neglect it. And remember\u2014he\u00a0hates\u00a0people laughing at him.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

After casting the spell, an alternate closing for witches to use is to visualize Trump\u2019s demise to the torch of the Statue of Liberty. They can:<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter you\u2019ve visualized Trump\u2019s energy dissipating, gaze at the white candle flame for a few moments, close your eyes, and imagine a bright light emerging from the darkness and gradually being revealed as the flaming torch of the Statue of Liberty. The light from the torch then brightens intensely, expanding into infinity and burning away all darkness. After a few moments, open your eyes, ground yourself, and pinch or snuff out the white candle, closing the ritual. You can also leave it burning until it is fully extinguished.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Fortunately, the only thing \u201cbeing bound\u201d is the demonic spirit of these lost souls. In Deuteronomy 18:9-13 God made clear that his people should not have anything to do with \u201cthe detestable ways of the nations.\u201d God commanded:<\/p>\n

\u201cLet no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages, in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritualist or who consults with the dead. Anyone who does these things is detestable to the LORD and because of these detestable practices the LORD your God will drive out those nations before you. You must be blameless before the LORD your God.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Again, in Galatians 5, Paul admonishes the same\u2014for believers to live by the Spirit, not those of the sinful nature. Instead, Christians are to bear the fruit of the Spirit\u2014 love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.<\/p>\n

The Spirit protects believers, including Donald Trump, from such wickedness. Their spells will fall into the darkness from which they came. Their cackling will fall on deaf ears. Their potions will be corrupted by the continuous outpouring of the Holy Spirit.<\/p>\n

In response to this,\u00a0Christians participated in unified prayer organized by Intercessors For America (IFA) today, Friday, February 24th from 12:15p.m.- 12:45p.m. ET<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
