The Secret (Psychic) History of the Cold War
Paranormal Research
It must have been a startling revelation for Americans of the 90’s when they learned that the government had been using paranormal research to fight the Cold War.
From 1975 to 1995, the Defense Intelligence Agency and the Stanford Research Institute conducted Project Stargate, a program designed to research remote viewing and its potential applications for gathering intelligence.
For those who may not know, the concept behind remote viewing is that a person can “visit” distant locations with their mind, allowing them to describe something they can’t actually see. Movies and TV series have made paranormal research like this well-known, most recently with the Stranger Things series, where the character El is able to witness far-off conversations, or even visit the “Upside-Down” with her mind.
The people involved in this research had very academic names for it: “behavorial science,” “parapsychology,” and “psychic research.”
But they weren’t the first people to gain knowledge by extra-sensory means.
Jesus displayed this kind of “skill” on multiple occasions, such as when he told his disciples to go pick up the colt for his ride into Jerusalem. He not only told them where to get it, but described what kind of person they would meet and what he would be carrying. Not only did Jesus know details about a location he couldn’t see, but he knew future details that hadn’t yet happened.
Of course, Jesus didn’t do this by remote viewing. He knew those details in his spirit, through communion with the Father.
Those who practice remote viewing and similar psychic “skills” are also doing it through spiritual means, whether they know it or not. They are doing it through the occult.
In that sense, remote viewing is no different than using tarot cards and consulting mediums. It’s a way to obtain supernatural knowledge, but without God.
That means that the US government sponsored occultic activities to help fight the Cold War. In other words, instead of turning to God for help, they turned to the forces of darkness.
This didn’t only happen in the case of remote viewing. I’ve heard that in 1967, the US government made a pact with a demonic entity for assistance in defeating the Soviet Union. I haven’t been able to find additional details on that one, but I do believe it. 1967 was the same year that Roe v. Wade happened, opening the doors for child sacrifice in America.
What does this mean for a nation?
Individuals can and do make agreements with demonic forces, sometimes on purpose, sometimes unwittingly. When this happens, in order for a person to get free, that agreement has to be canceled and nullified. But when a person is acting on behalf of a nation, their decisions will affect the course of that nation.
The men who fought the Revolutionary War relied on God to bring them through. As a result, Revolutionary War history is full of stories about moments of divine providence which defy logic—fog that moved in at just the right moment, or decisions the enemy made that benefited the Americans. But somewhere between the 1700’s and the 1900’s, America’s leaders shifted, until they were looking for help from a totally different god.
When representatives of appropriate authority seek out psychic spirits to help their nation win its battles, instead of seeking wisdom from God, this creates as inroad for those evil spirits to begin interfering with that nation. This is called a breach.
The Fix
Correcting this problem relies on the fact that the spiritual realm operates on law and authority. When new leadership comes into an organization, they have the ability — i.e., the authority — to reclaim that organization’s purpose and dedicate its efforts to God.
For those of us who aren’t in such leadership positions, we can still pray for those leaders and intervene on their behalf. This isn’t just for the national level, either. We can exert our influence in our local communities, and that’s really the best place to start.
I believe that when we get to Heaven, we’ll be amazed to find out how powerful our warfare and our prayers really were. The Bible is full of stories about imperfect people who made a tremendous difference. So don’t sell yourself short 🙂
