Hypnosis
Q: Is there any benefit to hypnosis?
A: God has told us in Scripture we are to have control over our mind and body. The only "person" you should give control over to is the Holy Spirit, who indwells you. You should not give another human being the ability to access your mind in that way. Reading the Bible can help you understand that we deal with in life is the flesh and the devil. Be very wary of anyone who recommends hypnosis
The Bible says in (1Peter 5:8 ) “Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.”
The fruit of the Spirit is self-control (Galatians 5:22-23) “As we follow the Spirit’s lead, He will give us the power to better control our own selves”
Ephesians 6:12
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.
Hypnosis involves the transfer of control away from ourselves to another person. When being put under hypnosis you are allowing someone/something to take over and control you. And to guide you. They use unbiblical methods and since the unsaved are under Satan and demons control, they lead you into and open you to satanic influences. Some even try to get you to interact with a “spirit guide” [clearly satanic]
If it is for therapy or healing from trauma etc, you dont need worldly unsaved professionals using ungodly methods, you simply need a biblical counselor.
Whatever reason or purpose you are seeking one out for, can be provided by God himself thru the Word. He is the supplier of all of our needs pertaining to our mental and emotional health and well-being.
