Oh, The Horror: Is this, It?

Isaiah 14:7-21 KJV

16They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; 17That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners? 18All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house. 19But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet.

In 2016, US News and world reports broke down a list of the 10 most notable and as they described it often creepy clowns in pop culture. A few of these you may have heard of I’m sure. Coming in at number one was Ronald Mcdonald who was the clown character used as the primary mascot of the McDonald's fast-food restaurant chain.

Oh, The Horror – The Fog

Psalms 34:4

4I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.

Oh, The Horror – Exorcismus

15He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. 16But whereunto shall I liken this generation? It is like unto children sitting in the markets, and calling unto their fellows, 17And saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned unto you, and ye have not lamented.

The word "exorcism" comes from the Latin word exorcismus, and the earliest known use of the English word was around 1400. Exorcism is the religious or spiritual practice that involves evicting malevolent spirits from a person or place that is believed to be possessed. The practice is ancient and is part of the belief systems of many cultures and religions.

One of the things we tend to do, when we see a movie that we find unsettling and disturbing, we try to convince ourselves that it’s just a movie, this could never happen to me. This may seem like just a movie, but sexual curses are real. AIDS, Gonorrhea, Syphilis, HPV, Cancer and they do follow and some can kill and they can be transmitted to the next person you decide to lay down with and the first person to you. How about a screaming baby when you have an unwanted pregnancy? How many of you know that this will surely follow you?

Oh, The Horror - Nefarious

1Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

One of the things about this movie, that I thought set it apart from others of its kind, was the scene where the priest comes to visit Brady before his execution. To a demon possessing a man, the last thing he wants to encounter is a man of the cloth. The reason being, a true man or woman of God is a threat to the demon possessing or influencing someone because that man or woman of God has the discernment to see it, the power to resist it and ultimately cast it out.

Oh, The Horror – Smile

22The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. 23But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!

“Oh, it’s just me, Fear”

Psalms 34:4KJV

“I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.”

You know, some of you have just gotten so accustomed to it, you wear it around like a badge of honor, you make peace with it, you joke about it, you buy a ticket to experience it, you make slogans out of it, but do we really understand just how dangerous and crippling fear really is and why God says in
