"Soul Ties" Explained - Part 1 - Session 3

[Rev. Dr. Dorothy E. Hooks, PsyD]

UNGODLY SOUL TIES

While a soul tie will develop between any two people who are open to one another, the strength of those soul ties depends upon how deeply involved with another their heart becomes. You can become soul tied to family, friends, co- workers and the leadership you are under. Unity we have with others is an open expression of our soul ties.

Carefully examine our friends (male or Female) before it becomes a covenant or relationship, because people that come into our lives can influence the shaping of our lives and our walk with Jesus.

2 Corinthians 6:14: Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

2 Corinthians 6:15: And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?

2 Corinthians 6:16: And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

2 Corinthians 6:17: Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.

2 Corinthians 6:18: And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

Check their motives, here are a few things to watch for.

1.   Is this person a compromising person or is it their way or no way?

2.   Are they self-centered?

3.   Do they have a giving spirit or do they always want to take?

4.   Are they kind, gentle and above all loving?

5.   Are they saved and walking with Jesus?

6.   Are they controlling or manipulative? Beware

When a person who is bonded to another is governed by impure motives or the desire for selfish gain, the soul tie between them can enable (make able) that selfish one, to manipulate and abuse the other. A person can actually control another through soul ties, because the minds of the two are open to one another. In ungodly relationships these soul ties may place us in emotional and mental bondage to others causing us to do and say things to our own hurt.

Romans 8:15: For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

Romans 8:15 Amplified: For [the Spirit which] you have now received [is] not a spirit of slavery to put you once more in bondage to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption [the Spirit producing sonship] in [the bliss of] which we cry, Abba (Father)! Father

Ungodly soul ties can potentially establish, if the relationship is not under the Lordship of Christ. God demands first place in our hearts, spouses are to be second, followed by children, family, friends and associates.
