“But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth, to burn incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then had we plenty of victuals, and were well, and saw no evil.

 

But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by famine”---Jeremiah 44:17-18

 

The above scripture was the reply of the remnant of the Children of Israel after their ordeal in the land of Judah. After God’s punishment on their sins. When the Prophet Jeremiah rebuked them for their sins, especially their Idolatry.

 

He rebuked them for worshiping the queen of heaven. But they stubbornly confronted him and replied to him what is written in the above scripture. The day I read that particular scripture and the other part I’ll be quoting soon, I feared for so many religious folks that are still making obeisance to that same she devil-the queen of heaven- That made the children of Israel to attract the wrath of God.

 

Some months back, as I called most of my friend’s phone, the ring back tone, carried a song that praised the queen of heaven. As I continually heard the song, I let them be. But recently, as I read through my bible, and got to that particular chapter of Jeremiah, the extreme nature of this idolatry pricked into my spirit.

 

It pricked me to the extent, I know God will not forgive me, if I do not tell the people I know are involved in order to save their precious souls. So instantly, I called all my friends I know had the ring back tone to turn it off. And I also warned them with the above scripture never to do any form of obeisance to the queen of heaven. Because she is a devil.

 

And recently, as I call them, I found out they’ve already turned it off. Then after that result, it has been on my mind to also extend this message as far as possible to the religious folks who are inadvertently worshipping this she devil. Hence, this particular article.

 

So please, from a heart of holy love, if you’re in any way involved in this idolatry- or you know anyone involved in it, please desist. And also, quickly warn others, no matter their religious dogmas. You can circulate this article to them as fast as possible.

 

Because the wrath it attracted to those offenders of the Israelite was very dreadful…

 

Here was how God reacted to their rebellious statements-in great anger- in Jeremiah 44:25-27;

“Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying; Ye and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hand, saying, We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her: ye will surely accomplish your vows, and surely perform your vows.

 

Therefore hear ye the word of the, LORD, all Judah that dwell in the land of Egypt; Behold, I have sworn by my great name, saith the LORD, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, The Lord God Liveth.

 

Behold, I will watch over them for evil, and not for good: and all the men of Judah that are in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until there be an end of them”

 

At my early stage of Christianity, I came across a friend’s brother that referred to Mary as the ‘queen of heaven’. And when I asked him the reason for his belief, his only defense was: “Any where there is a King, there must of a necessity be a Queen also”.

 

So according to his explanations, since God is the King of Heaven and Earth, then Mary the mother of Jesus Christ (That died for years) is automatically the queen. But this erroneous presumption, does not have any biblical validation…

 

Please my dear, I’m not hear for any religious attack. But on the contrary, I’m here to scripturally show-as can be clearly seen from the scripture- That any form of obeisance to the queen of heaven in any form, is Idolatry. And if the perpetrators do not desist, they’re sure to attract the wrath of God. Not only in this present age, but in the world to come.

 

Please, don’t allow religion to push you to damnation. Heaven is real, and Hell fire as well is real. And the race to heaven is a personal race. So please take personal responsibility for your eternal salvation.

 

Because as God revealed personally to me, if you miss heaven by one percent, you have automatically made Hell Fire 100%. There is no standing in between. And I for one, I don’t want to go to hell; neither do I want anyone to go to hell for any reason as well. Even God almighty, says it is not his will for anyone to perish in Hell, but that all should come to repentance.

But if you ignorantly or consciously walk your way to hell, there is no second chance after death- or after the sound of the great, last trumpet.

 

So for love’s sake again, I plead with you to desist from this great evil and also warn the people you know that are also involved in it in any way, to also desist as fast as possible.

 

Remain Blessed!

I agree that the whole 'queen of heaven' thing is idolatry.  Mary, the mother of Jesus, was truly blessed among women.  But she was just a WOMAN, not a deity, and worship of anyone or anything other than God is idolatry and, therefore, a sin.

I agree that a statue of Mary should not be bowed down to or burned incense to, not should anyone do it to the queen of heaven of Jeremiah's day, Ishtar or Ashtorith, the wife of Baal. All were idols. But it is difficult to see the fine line between their practice and the modern practice. I have known people from Spain that believe the statues of Mary perform miracles when they are prayed to and I could not persuade them that it might be God Who had done them. They insisted it was the statue. So it leaves no alternative than to agree with Paul who said that demons are behind any powers in idols. 1 Cor. 10:19-21. So if our prayer to God are a sweet smelling sacrifice to Him, the prayers to statues of people, whether of Mary or of Ishtar, must be a sacrifice to the demons.

Just my opinion.

I think the queen of heaven talked about in Jeremiah is Ishtar not the Blessed Mary.

First of all we do not worship Mary, only revere her.

Second, please take observation of time that Jeremiah was written in.

Thirdly, We don't call Mary - Queen of Heaven.

Fourth and last- please do some research before "ASSUMING" things.

Thank you.

HAIL, HOLY QUEEN, Mother of Mercy, our life, our sweetness and our hope! To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve; to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears. Turn then, most gracious advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary! Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

  There is one Advocate between God and man, and His name was not Mary. This is what the post is about. Idolatry. Mary makes nobody worthy, it was Jesus who died for us.    So, looking for another Advocate besides Jesus is Idolatry no matter how you want to flower it up. Let's not be self deceived.

If I thought I could get Jesus' mama praying for me--or even better yet, His Gramma--I'd be on that like Rosanne Barr on a German Chocolate Cake!!!

Whether it is Ishtar, Ashera, Ashtoreth, Astarte, Ariadne, Aphrodite, Isis, Diana, Innana, Kali, or any other name for the "Mother Goddess", the whole concept of the veneration of Mary is rooted in paganism.  That the Catholic Church calls Mary "the Queen of Heaven" should be a red flag, since the Bible is very clear that there is no Queen of Heaven other than a pagan goddess, who was regarded as a demon of lust and/or destruction.

 

The real Mary of the Bible would condemn Maryolatry outright.

'I'm not sure whom you're addressing here but let me just say this.....I have attended Catholic churches at times and I have SEEN people praying to Mary.  I have also seen shrines to Mary in homes.  This is idolatry in it's purest form.  I've never heard a Catholic call Mary 'queen of heaven' but that may only be because I wasn't in the right place at the right time, I really don't know.  So....no one is 'assuming' here.  Every believer knows the Catholic church preaches that Mary is an intercessor between man and God; nothing could be more unbiblical.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
