Soul l ties allow the spirit world to get two for one. When two people are soul tied they function as one and what is done to one is actually done to both. In the case of one that is used by the Most High then it is extremely beneficial to everyone involved.
In the case of Ruth and Naomi that soul tie resulted in The Most High continuing the lineage through which The Messiah would come. Ruth a poor widow getting married to Boaz a wealthy business man and Naomi getting to be a grandmother despite loosing all her sons.
On the other hand the enemy usually uses soul ties to infiltrate the kingdom of Yah. By unequally yoking people with soul ties in marriage or even just relationships . He then uses the connection to access and draw them away from the Kingdom of Yah. That is why when Balaam could not curse the children of Israel he told the king that had hired him to let his sons marry their daughters.
The enemy also uses soul ties just to have more impact. In the case of Ananias and Saphira they both plotted together to defraud the assembly.
One man of you puts to flight a thousand, since it is the Lord/Ahayah your God/Almighty who fights for you, just as he promised you.
Joshua 23 v 10
Soul ties are used to influence those in Authority
In the case of Jezebel and Ahab she was used by the enemy to control Ahab and by default control Israel. Solomon was influenced to turn to Idols by his pagan wives. The list goes on. Yokes/ soul ties create oneness and spirits are able to be transferred that way.
The transfer of spirits is done mostly through contact and agreement., but agreement is not required.
“Then the Almighty said to Moses, “Gather before me seventy men who are recognized as elders and leaders of Israel. Bring them to the Tabernacle[a] to stand there with you. 17 I will come down and talk to you there. I will take some of the Spirit that is upon you, and I will put the Spirit upon them also. They will bear the burden of the people along with you, so you will not have to carry it alone.”
numbers 11 v 16-30
The Pros and Cons of soul ties
Soul ties makes teamwork easy and creates unity without effort, if both are filled with the same Spirit. However an unequal yoke will pull one over to the side of the other. As in the case of Solomon he was pulled over to the enemies side through his wives who were serving Idols..
They can affect our ability to make objective decisions, due to favoritism towards the person we are soul tied to. An example of this would be Jacob being so attached to his son Joseph that he showed blatant favoritism, by giving him a special coat while not giving any to his brothers. This led to the brothers being jealous and throwing Joseph into the pit.
However soul ties can create a special loyalty that can be very useful as in the case of Jonathan and David. Jonathon was willing to warn David of the threat to his life although his own father was the culprit.
They can also be used to keep you spiritually bound to people who are not destiny partners. This will keep out those who should be there and delay or even destroy our destiny. This can delay marriage if you are single and prevent proper oneness in our marriage if we have a soul tie with your ex.
Soul ties therefore can cause divorce and can make marriage relationships toxic. Partners can be closer to the person they are soul tied to than their spouse. This creates jealousy and mistrust in the marriage.
We are 3 dimensional beings and having your spouse more soul tied to someone else than they are to you, causes jealousy.
How are they formed and How do you know when you have them
They are usually formed through friendship and proximity over time. They can be also formed by making vows and covenants. This can be blood covenants or just verbal agreements. Another way they are formed is through sex which technically is a covenant.
They can also be formed by thinking about someone and wanting them to be your partner or friend. Claiming them in your mind and heart. People belong to The most High and we should only be soul tied to those he connects us to.
Because they are so easily formed and they can be used to accomplish so much by the spirit world. This means we should do our best to only form them with people who has been spiritually connected or assigned to us by The Most high.
The bible recommends that women are betrothed at a young age to young men who are chosen by their parents. This helps to prevent soul ties being formed with other people before marriage. Relationships that are formed without previous ties on both sides, if they are connected in The Father’s will, are usually very durable and long lasting.
When a soul tie is formed the person will come to mind a lot or show up in your dreams. They will also be viewed in a favorable light even if they are abusive and you will not have any control over the situation.
Soul ties are not just to people
Pharoah was abusive to the children of Israel but they still wanted to go back to Egypt because they were soul tied to him/it. They saw him favorably and could not control their desire to go back. They only thought of what was favorable about their time in Egypt.
The wilderness is a place where our soul ties are revealed . Notice that the Messiah was tested to see if he was soul tied to food to power and fame and to material things. The Most high want our souls to be tied to Him . When that is the case we are content in whatever state we find ourselves.
Murmuring and complaining therefore is a sign that our hearts are yearning for whatever it is tied to. It is extremely offensive to The Most high.
Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
9 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.
10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.
11 Now all these things happened unto them for examples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.
1 cor 10
Soul Ties are Addictions
They link us to people and objects so that we cannot easily move on from them or do without them. Whatever or whoever we are attached to actually controls our destiny and our hearts. There has to be a laying down and separation from these things or people usually physically, mentally and emotionally. In order for us to be free.
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He hath anointed Me to preach the Gospel to the poor. He hath sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
luke 18
Evil soul ties are an addiction and is often used for comfort after rejection and abandonment. When we feel detached we look for someone or something to attach to. That is usually not The Most High because we cannot see Him and often cant trust Him because of trauma..
Who or What our souls are tied to matters
The greatest commandment is to love The Most high with all our soul our mind and strength. The enemy uses soul ties to lead us into Idolatry so that people and things matter more than The Most High.
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’
Mark 12 v 30
We are really supposed to be soul tied to The Almighty after childhood. Parents are to wean us and help us to attach to The Father son and set apart Spirit.
When Laban had gone to shear his sheep, Rachel stole her father’s household gods.
genesis 31 v 19
Rachel loved her father’s Idols and wanted to take them with her to the land that The Almighty was taking them. We all come to the father with our souls attached to Idols. Money, people, sex, material things, career all represent modern day Idols that we have when we make covenant with The Messiah.
It means that these soul ties need to be broken for us to truly love Him and put Him first.
How are evil soul ties broken
These ties are usually formed through prolonged association and devotion to the object of our attachment or addiction. It involves our body soul and spirit. If we go back to the garden of Eden we see that a soul ties was being formed with Adam and Eve as well as with The Most high . Then Satan came along and used the forbidden tree to distract them and get them to desire it more than the presence of The Most High.
They were immediately put out of the garden by The Most High because they had violated His boundaries . This can be likened to being given over to a reprobate mind. So they were now free to be attached to Idols.
In order for man to truly return to The Father Yahsya/Jesus had to come and pay the death penalty. But before he did that he lived a life of obedience to The Father to show us what was required of us. He told us that in order to follow in his footsteps we had to deny ourselves and take up our stake/cross and follow him. He was telling us how to break evil soul ties.
Soul ties are usually formed by what we believe
Most evil soul ties happen when the enemy introduces something or someone in our lives that we get attached to more than The Most High. Just like Adam and Eve did. It is usually done by getting us to believe a lie about it.
So the first place to start is to separate ourselves from the Idol by staying away from it if possible for a season and seeking to connect with The Most High.
Then the next step is to be transformed by the renewing of the mind. The lie we believe has to be uncovered and rejected and the truth embraced.
Then we can pray for deliverance which is why the scripture says the truth shall set you free.
So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, 32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
John 8 v 32
