Objects Do Not Have Spiritual Power

The bible teaches us a view of reality where objects have physical properties but do not have spiritual power. No lucky or unlucky charms. Things don't channel spiritual energy. Areas are not better places to get spiritual 'reception'. Demons are sentimental and do attach themselves to things and people but God doesn't.

"And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou [art] cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:" - Genesis 3:14 KJV

"For our soul is bowed down to the dust: our belly cleaveth unto the earth." - Psalm 44:25 KJV

The cross doesn't repel vampires. That whole idea has small 'viral' errors in it. There are no vampires. Darkness doesn't have that kind of animating power. The image isn't where the power is. The idea and historical fact of the cross is where the power is. The Love of the cross is where the power is. Jesus is the power. Knowing Him is this great unbreakable relationship and the cross shows us the ultimate example of His love.

Objects can become idols. Places can be restored when we worship God in Spirit and in Truth. New memories are formed. New shared memories.

Things have a purpose. We use things or decide not to use things but God is the source of all blessing. If there is any power He has it. Jesus didn't heal by means of some power He possessed. He was connected to God the Father. He Is still connected. The only time He was disconnected was on the cross and that happened for a short time for our sake.
