UFO Disclosure or New Age Deception?
Recently I visited Sedona, Arizona to enjoy the picturesque landscape filled with giant rock formations and endless blue skies. It didn’t take me long, however, to realize that Sedona was famous for more than its hiking trails and healthy cuisine.

While the views of nature were breathtaking, this city, dubbed the New Age capital of the United States, was filled with countless crystal shops, as well as mediums offering everything from psychic readings to aura photos and yoga retreats. Reiki massages, chakra clearing, tarot readings, quantum hypnosis, shamanic workshops, sacred earth walks, alchemy activations and “wolf magic” were just a small sample of what Sedona offered to anyone who was seeking to “awaken their spirit.” Ads and tourism brochures told visitors they could be energized, enlightened and healed, but only if they seek the mysterious and the unknown.
Spiritual Deceptions
As a Christian I knew that a great deception was taking place all around me. People were actively seeking communication with spirits of the demonic realm. While the majority of these New Age enthusiasts would insist that they’re interacting with benevolent spirits and “guides,” the Holy Spirit issued a loud warning to my heart. In their quest for healing and transformation, these New Age pilgrims were entering a realm of cunning counterfeit spiritualism, where they would be easily misled.
Aliens and Vortexes
Another particularly disturbing trend I noticed in Sedona was the huge interest in “aliens” and UFOS (also known as UAPs–unidentified aerial or anomalous phenomenon). Because of its reputation as a UFO hotspot, many New Agers traveled to this city with the specific intent of communicating with extraterrestrials and UFOs. Scores of UFO tours were available for hopeful contactees.
Known for its numerous vortex sites, Sedona has become a mecca for New Agers interested in the occult and aliens. These areas of “enhanced energy” are believed to “facilitate prayer, meditation, and mind/body healing,” while allowing one to explore the relationship between the soul and the divine. Many people hike to vortex sites, believing they will encounter a “universal life force energy” that will bring emotional healing, personal empowerment, or a deep connection to the spirit world. Others hope they will make a connection with their “alien” guide.
Back in 1987 an international event called the Harmonic Convergence took place atop Bell Rock in Sedona, as thousands meditated and prayed for the arrival of a giant spaceship that would usher in a new age of peace and harmony. When these galactic saviors didn’t show up to unify the souls of the world, that didn’t squelch the enthusiasm which still goes on to this day.
Congressional Hearings on UAPs
A few weeks after arriving home from my trip, I still felt uneasy about what I witnessed in Sedona. Subsequently, I watched the recent November 13, 2024 Congressional Hearing addressing Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAPs–formerly called UFOs), chaired by South Carolina Representative Nancy Mace. This was a follow up to a July 2023 Congressional hearing where former intelligence officer and whistleblower David Grusch testified that the U.S. has a “broad-crash retrieval program” and they have obtained “non-human, exotic origin vehicles that have either landed or crashed,” as well as “non-human biologics.” He was joined by U.S. Navy Commander David Fravor, as well as former Navy pilot Ryan Graves, both of whom described encounters with UAPs.
The November 13 hearing was meant to “pull back the curtain” on UAPs (UFOs) as witnesses described covert government communications with non-human intelligence, as well as their own personal experiences with UAPs. All expressed the need for transparency and accountability, while advocating for the protection of whistleblowers.
Whistleblowers Say UAPs (UFOs) are Real
Retired Rear Admiral of the U.S. Navy Dr. Tim Gallaudet testified that UAPs were real and suggested the formation of a UAP review board and better disclosure laws. Gallaudet recently published a paper titled Beneath the Surface: We May Learn More about UAP by Looking in the Ocean, where he explained that unidentified submersible objects, termed USOs, pose a grave threat to US maritime security. The 19-page document, containing 111 footnotes and an extensive bibliography, highlights encounters with USOs and makes the case that gaps in understanding this phenomenon could lead to detrimental consequences.
Former Department of Defense official Luis Elizondo testified about his role in a Pentagon UAP program. Many times, he declined to elaborate on details, citing non-disclosure agreements. He lamented, “excessive secrecy has led to grave misdeeds against loyal civil servants, military personnel, and the public–all to hide the fact that we are not alone in the cosmos.”
Investigative journalist Michael Shellenberger provided the hearing panel with a copy of an 11-page alleged whistleblower report that describes UAP evidence which he says has been “illegally withheld” from Congress. He described the existence of an unacknowledged special access program titled “Immaculate Constellation” adding that there are hundreds of high-resolution images and videos of UAPs in a secret database.
Former NASA administrator Michael Gold suggested that the US government enlist the help of NASA, which could share its databases of UAP data. Furthermore, it could create a streamlined, efficient system for reporting UAP sightings, where pilots and civilians would not be stigmatized.
UFO Enthusiasts Demand More Disclosure
After the congressional hearing, a UAP/UFO Disclosure Rally was held by MUFON (Mutual UFO Network) and the New Paradigm Institute. One of the points made was that pressure must be put on President-elect Donald Trump to “release whistleblowers from their UFO-related NDA’s (non-disclosure agreements)” so more are able to speak frankly with Congress. Speakers noted that UAPs are a bipartisan issue that must be addressed.
New Paradigm Institute founder and civil rights attorney Danny Sheehan, believes the world must be prepared to accept a “second world paradigm” which includes the existence of extraterrestrials. In a recent interview, he suggested that Jesus is a “mutation” related to the evolution of the human family, adding that the “adepts” from other religions were also able to do miraculous things such as healing the sick. He surmises that “aliens” and religion go hand in hand.
On October 20, 2024 Sheehan’s nonprofit hosted a “first-of-its-kind” event known as Global Disclosure Day. Speakers from around the world included U.S. lawmakers, aerospace and defense executives, investigative journalists, historians and UAP (UFO) activists. The goal of this gathering was to bring awareness to “humanity’s cosmic moment,” as the hidden nature of UAPs and “extraterrestrials” is being revealed to the world.
New Agers are Trying to Contact “Aliens”
Birdie Jaworski, of ABQ (Albuquerque) UFOs, was one of many speakers at the global disclosure event, but her website reveals the deceptive nature of “extraterrestrial disclosure.” A quick look at the events section shows her organization hosts monthly Global Meditation Events, where “meditation, consciousness and thought” are used to “make peaceful contact with our cosmic family.” The website also features articles and classes on remote viewing. Known as psychic spying or ESP, this practice, rooted in Hinduism, Buddhism and Taoism, gives human beings to ability to “perceive information and imagery of remote geographical targets.”
During my trip to Sedona, I saw many advertisements and brochures about remote viewing and other psychic phenomenon. A conference at the Global Center for Christ Consciousness in October 2024 featured mediums who claimed to have the ability to contact extraterrestrials and spirits. For example, ET contactee, “Cosmic Mentor,” and New Age author Lily Nova boasted that she can help people make contact with their Star Families and spiritual guides by providing special protocols and ascension guidelines. She claims, “Your Star family and guides may have been trying to reach you for a very long time. Discover your unique cosmic soul connections and learn how to connect with your cosmic family.” Other courses she offers include Deep Chakra Healing with Inner Earth Beings and Third Eye Activation where you can receive “upgrades.”
Lily Nova is just one of many mediums who offer their guidance in contacting ETs and spirits. A common theme amongst New Age enthusiasts is their assertion that humans were descended from a race of extraterrestrial beings. Moreover, there’s a belief that these beings will make themselves known to the world at some point. Many are excited about the prospect of disclosure because they believe all the ills of humanity and the planet will be healed by the arrival of these other-worldly saviors.
We Must Pray About UAP/UFO Disclosure
As Christians and intercessors, we should be in prayer about the New Age movement and its alignment with UAP disclosure. There’s a portion of society who already believes “extraterrestrials” are going to usher in a new age of peace and harmony. Many are actively seeking these spirits and partnering with demonic forces whether knowingly or unknowingly.
There are lots of opinions and ideas as to whether there has been contact with non-human intelligence. Additionally, there is debate within the biblical community about the nature of what “non-human intelligence” is. Whatever your belief, the main point is that we must pray for discernment from God. The New Age community attests to the existence of “extraterrestrials” and UAPs, but their knowledge and practices are rooted in the occult. Thus, the likelihood of deception is off the charts.
It’s probable that more congressional hearings will take place in the future. Additionally, as the New Age movement and interest in the occult grows, there will be more confusion and deception about what’s really going on. A common thread among New Agers is that humans will destroy the planet unless all governments and religions unite together as one cosmic family. This includes forming a “one world” planetary system of governance, headed by an “extraterrestrial” messiah who will usher in world peace.
Christians should be in prayer about how to respond to this fringe, but important issue. For myself, when I was surrounded by all the New Age deception in Sedona, I felt the strong urgency to pray for lost souls. Everywhere I went, I prayed for Jesus to reveal himself to those who were seeking sprits and ETs. I prayed for them to have an encounter with the Holy Spirit, which is the spirit of truth.
How Do We Pray about UAP/UFO Disclosure?
- Pray that all deception rooted in New Age/occult beliefs would be revealed and rejected.
- Pray that pastors, intercessors and the church community would be ready to respond biblically to any claims or revelations about non-human intelligence.
- Many pilots, military/government personnel and civilians have seen things in the sky or in the ocean they cannot explain. Others have had experiences they do not fully understand. Pray to God for clarity in these matters. Is there a demonic element working? Are there actually secret government programs involving UAPs that are being hidden from Congress and the public? Pray for God to disclose the truth.
- Pray for protection over any truthful whistleblowers who are trying to share their stories.
- Pray for salvation for those involved in the New Age movement. Pray they would have encounters with Jesus instead of seeking spirits, and “aliens” (demonic entities) who will deceive them.
It’s important to test every spirit. 1 John 4:1 warns,
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.
Satan is the master of deception, but Jesus is the king of disclosure. Lord Jesus, bring clarity and understanding to what’s really going on with UAPs and bring salvation to those who are relying on ETs to bring world peace.
What do you think UAPs (UFOs) are? How can we pray about the connection between the New Age movement and UAP disclosure?

Father God I pray that things which should remain hidden remain hidden. And like things of private lives in our homes and businesses be kept safe from prying eyes being about no legitimate purpose. Open the public’s eyes to the reasons there are such cries to look into ‘unidentified’ which is but a distraction to turn attention from so many things that should be investigated which are openly practiced wrongdoing. Amen.
After reading that in one alien encounter that the alien(s) came all the way from outer space just to let people know that Jesus was false that told me everything I needed to know about the source of this phenomenon. They didn’t come allllll that way to talk about peace or secrets of the universe but to say that Jesus was false. That should have been a clue to the audience that the aliens were speaking falsehoods and are not what they claim to be. There is a very strong hostility to Jesus, outside of their New Age Jesus version of Christ Consciousness and the like, and a strong hostility to the message of Jesus being the only way to God. Often the things we protest against the most are the very things we need the most and in New Agers and alien believers case, they really need the Savior Jesus Christ.
Heavenly Father, Please make the demons behind the alien ruse show their real faces to these alien seekers. That the lie that Satan tries to spread is just that- a lie. Please pour out your love and give eyes to see and ears to hear to the New Age and alien seeking communities. That more and more of these seekers would find the one they truly need which is Christ Jesus. They are half way there when it comes to believing in things outside the physical world so please, God, lead them the rest of the way to Your Son Jesus and surround them with your real true love. Show them the truth and expose the lies they’ve been taught and believed and replace those false teachings and beliefs with your Truth and please lead them to faith in Christ Jesus. Please give them eyes that see and are free from the darkness that the enemy casts over them, give them ears that hear the voice of your Holy Spirit and please give them a heart of flesh for their heart of stone. Please stop the enemy of their souls from dragging anymore people in the New Age and alien believing world to hell. Thank you! In Jesus name, amen.
Dear Lord God
Please expose the fraud about extra trrestials. This is simple obfuscation, getting you to look elsewhere so as to not see what the elites are actually doing. Please frustrate all their efforts so the go bankrupt as well deserved punishment before their second death.
I ask in Jesus’ Name
Amen
Nothing in scripture talks about aliens or UFO’s. The earth was made for man by our Heavenly Father and we are to steward it well and bring HIS Kingdom to earth. If there was life on other planets he would have put it in his word. Praying against all of this and that the knowledge and glory of my Lord will cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. Bringing deliverance from sin and salvation and discipleship through Jesus who is the way the truth and the life. Very good article and yes we will pray. Thankyou
John Paul Jackson went to burning man and prophesied via the Holy Spirit. That’s true Christianity.
There certainly is a ‘non-worldly’ savior. This savior is not an extraterrestrial or an alien being. This Savior is Jesus Christ!!! He took the human form and walked on the same Earth that we walk on today, and have walked on for thousands of years. He is not mysterious, but reveals himself to us in the Holy Bible. As 2 Peter 1:20-21 describes that the writings did not come from man, but came from the Holy Spirit who inspired the Prophets writings. I have suspected, and even believed, for many, many years that UFOs and aliens are complete deceptions from Satan. The goal to direct us away from the true Savior, Jesus Christ, and to the dark world of Satanism. I believe that the objects that these people have seen, and swear to as being UFOs and aliens, are actually manipulated manifestations from Satan to fool human beings. Can I prove it? No. But when one takes the full body of evidence of UFOs and aliens, and sees that its goal is to separate humans from God, it becomes very clear.
I totally agree with you and additionally, we could argue with these
Upsy daisy. Folks. Hahaha
That if these were good aliens, ….they would’ve come to humanity and help The human race and it would be a common knowledge. And if this manifestations of beings seen by people who open themselves to the unseen world as they can see spirit guides, and so forth, but also, they’re also manifestations, perhaps of angels, and these people misinterpret them in the New Age Way.
Amen! Long ago I heard someone interviewed on the radio on this topic, and they stated that when people who have claimed they saw any type UFO were then asked if they were born again followers of Jesus, the answer was always no.
2Th 2:1-12 “Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to him, we ask you, brothers, not to be quickly shaken in mind or alarmed, either by a spirit or a spoken word, or a letter seeming to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come.
Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.
Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things?
And you know what is restraining him now so that he may be revealed in his time. For the mystery of lawlessness (Torahlessness) is already at work. Only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will kill with the breath of his mouth and bring to nothing by the appearance of his coming. The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false, in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”
When I read this article, what came to mind immediately was “strong delusion”. It is a waste of time and spiritually dangerous to study and delve into supernatural counterfeits, like UFOs. There are only two sources of the supernatural – YHVH and the counterfeits of the enemy. YHVH is Truth. The enemy brings only lies and deception. It saddens me that people are so easily deceived, because they do not “love the Truth”. Abba, I love You – reveal Yourself who is Truth to those who desire to know You.
May we desire to know God’s truth above all and not be pulled into false ideologies. Give us discernment, Father.
This “new age” movement is an acceleration and magnification of practices that have been ongoing since the beginning of time – they are the amplification of the practices of satan who knows his time is vlshort and getting shorter. It is up to us believers who know the truth of God to continue your stand in the gap and urgently pray for the exposure of lies with the undistbutable truth of God’s love for ALL mankind!
Satan’s counterfeit, diversionary tactics designed to draw the uninformed
and maybe even the insincere, alleged believers away from the Truth of
God’s Word and His works is nothing new. It is also not something to be
explored by a God-fearing believer. I know how easily someone can be
drawn into the occult because of things that they see or experience and
they do not have the knowledge of God’s Truth to protect them. I also
know how much more powerful and enduring is God’s love for anyone
who is seeking to know Him. It is vital that true believers reject and
discount anything to do with this lying distraction from God’s Truth.
We are not called to engage in matters of this level of unbelief, nor to
be passive in regard to it. Yes, pray for the lost of the world for whom
our Lord died. This incomperable Truth outshines anything that the
devil can think up to draw us away and direct our faith away from.
There is a tremendous deficit in the praise department and until that
is remedied, no attention is required to be given to satanic ideologies
such as this!
Thank you for this in-depth article, Angela!
“ Whatever your belief, the main point is that we must pray for discernment from God. ”
Yes, Lord! How we need YOUR discernment in all the information that is being circulated. Above all, may the people who are seeking to know more about UAPs find You, Jesus! In Your Name – Amen!
Anything that leaves when rebuked in Jesus Name is of the Kingdom of darkness.
Jesus is our Only Savior and if millions people one day all dissappear at once, it won’t be aliens either. It’ll be Jesus the Bridegroom calling His Bride the Church/ Believers home in a twinkling of the eye.
Are you ready?
