This passage warns of the power of false religion. The Scriptures prohibit the worship of anything that is not God (e.g., human-made images, creation, secular authorities, human philosophies, pagan deities). It’s important to remember that not all religious movements or religious leaders are sent from God; some originate with Satan.

In a general context, The Devil Tarot card can signify depression or addiction. It can also be a sign of feeling trapped or restricted. With this Major Arcana card in your Tarot spread you may feel as though outside influences or forces beyond your control are restricting you, leaving you feeling powerless and victimised. However, this is the illusion The Devil creates. You are in control of your own destiny and are not bound by anything other than your own attitudes and behaviour. Don’t give up and don’t give away your power. You don’t have to tolerate negativity, criticism, manipulation or abuse from anyone. There are always options and there is always something positive you can do to improve your situation no matter how hopeless things may seem on the surface. Likewise be mindful of how you are treating others and make sure you are not trying to manipulate or control people in your life either. The Devil upright in your Tarot reading can also indicate obsessive, secretive or impulsive behaviour. It can be a sign that you are out of control. The Devil Tarot card is also a signifier of materialism and may show that you have become overly concerned with material things, status or power. These are not things that will make you truly fulfilled as a person so put your energy into the things that will. Love & Relationships (Upright) Please note though, that these meanings are meant as a guideline. Tarot meanings are not set in stone; not even ours! They are meant to make you think and guide you in the right direction. For most cards you will probably (hopefully!) feel that our meanings are right, but if a particular card calls to you in a different way then don't be afraid to go with your intuition. Time will tell if you're right or not.

Revelations Tarot review by Bonnie Cehovet

The reversed King of Cups may appear in your life as somebody who is emotional manipulative, controlling, or volatile. This is often depicted in someone you may know but may also signal a change in yourself. Sadness, loss, grief, despair, abandonment, guilt, remorse, regret, trauma, bereavement, mourning, heartbreak, unwelcome change, emotional instability, focusing on loss, focusing on negative emotions, isolation, loneliness, emotional baggage, divorce, separation, anger, disappointment General Meaning and Interpretation(Upright) In a love Tarot spread, if you are single, the Five of Cups can indicate that you are overcome with sadness or despair about a past relationship that did not work out. You may feel as though “The One” has slipped through your fingers and could be oblivious to potential partners as you are so focused on your sense of loss. You may also be consumed by remorse, regret or guilt. Perhaps due to mistakes you made in a past relationship. The Five of Cups is also a card of bereavement and as such, can indicate the loss of a loved one. If you have lost a partner, the Five of Cups can signify that you are isolating yourself as you feel too heartbroken to even contemplate dating anyone. If you do not feel up to dating, that is OK! However, try not to isolate yourself. You must deal with the present and try to stay grounded. Keep a supportive network of friends around you or join a support group if you need help. There is still love in your future even if you are not quite ready for it at the moment. If you are in a relationship, the Five of Cups is not a great omen as it can signify a break-up, separation or divorce. It can also indicate that you may be still harbouring old feelings about an ex rather than emotionally committing 100% to your current relationship. If so, you will need to work on resolving these feelings, if you want your current relationship to move forward. The Five of Cups can also represent abandonment or can simply indicate that fear of abandonment is causing friction in your relationship. Money & Career(Upright)

Many times, when people called upon God, fire came down from Heaven. Fire came down from Heaven against Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 19:24). Elijah called fire from Heaven (1 Kings 18:28). David called fire from heaven in an offering (1 Chronicles 21:26), as did Solomon (2 Chronicles 7:1). Is this Tarot spread right for you? Reveal how the insight from this Tarot spread can provide you with the answers you've been searching for so that you can move forward with more confidence and clarity. You may know what it means to "think outside the box," but you might have a hard time actually doing it. The third card in this Tarot reading serves as a dose of inspiration that sparks a new way of thinking or a new idea for how to move forward. By embracing the guidance from this position, you bring yourself one step closer to your desired outcome. The King of Cups is often representative of another person. If so, pulling this card may point to someone in your life who is not or was not affected by excitable situations.Your relationships, both past and present, are playing a part in your current circumstances. The seventh position in this Tarot reading shows you the impact that those closest to you are currently having on your personal life. This guidance shows you what lessons you can carry forward -- and which you should leave behind.

Think of this card as the X-ray vision glasses for the situation you're currently facing. Sometimes it's not the things we can see, but the thing we can't see, that turn out to have the most profound effect on our lives. This card strips away the veil and shows you exactly what it is -- either positive or negative -- that has been affecting you. These hidden factors could help or hurt you, making it even more important to identify them. The Seven of Wands reversed shows that external pressure is weighing you down, leaving you doubting yourself and whether everything is worth it. It may seem as if you are under constant opposition. At first, you could hold firm, but after a relentless battle, you are now exhausted and ready to give up altogether. Don’t let this get to you! Even if you are weary, this card urges you to keep fighting for what you believe in. Stand strong, own your position and don’t change who you are just to keep others happy. The artwork may not be to your liking, but for its ability to help you learn about and implement reversed cards in your readings, it’s indispensable. A card falling in a reversed position will read more fluidly than the sometimes jarring vision of an upside down card in the middle of a tarot spread. The Holy Spirit convicts, leads, guides, and counsels the Christ. The False Prophet manipulates and controls people. With the Holy Spirit, there is freedom for the Christian. Those who follow the False Prophet will be oppressed. Generally, the King of Cups is considered one of the best cards you can receive during a tarot reading. Pulling this signals that you have a healthy connection with your intuition, feelings, and logic. When a King of Cups pull represents another person, it can mean you’ll meet a potential partner with these qualities.The King of Cups combines great with The Lovers card, although the usual warnings apply regarding one member of the partnership being in love with the idea of love more than with the partner. Instead of listening to the Word of God, the False Prophet will get people to make an image of Antichrist. He will promote the idol worship of Antichrist.
