Divination is the practice of using mystical means to provide spiritual advice. It exists both in and out of the church. Outside the church, it is called things such as astrology, tarot card reading, crystal gazing, horoscopes, spiritual advisor, etc. In the church, it is spiritual advice gleaned by speaking in tongues, dreams and visions, words of knowledge, people who believe God speaks directly to them outisde of the Bible, etc. Balaam is a notable diviner in the Bible (Josh 13:22). Balaam was a prophet for hire. Balaam used divination, but was not allowed to curse God’s people. Balaam is a type of many false teachers and prophets in the church today.
