WHO ARE YOU?
Genesis 32:28 “Then the man said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have wrestled (struggled) with God and with humans and have overcome.”
My Journey Back Towards Light Part 1
My life hasn’t been great and I made up my mind to wrestle with God – Ekoroi, 2014
Scenario 1:
There’s something about the milk and the solid food that is spoken of by apostle Peter in his epistles. What I found out in my quest to wrestle with God and man and to know the real God is this; many (majority) of Christians are still stuck on milk. Know God and be disturbed and amazed at the same time.
Scenario 2:
I still struggle with what I came to know about God. That’s why you also can’t agree with my thoughts and views
At the point of knowing that your mind is powerful beyond measure, that ‘as you think, so you become’. There’s clearly no separation between you and the powers imagined as God. You are the creator. You are I am.
Scenario 3:
A poor man says, ‘ God has blessed me. (with this poverty)’, a middle-class man says, ‘God has blessed me. (with this little wealth)’, and finally, a very rich man says ‘God has blessed me. (with this immense possessions)’.
A Christian pronounces judgement: – to the poor man (s)he says ‘You have sinned against God, that’s why you are poor’ but to the other two he says ‘You are loved by God and that’s why you are blessed’.
I argue that the new age philosophy is right by saying ‘The universe (GOD) responds to your wish’. You are the God. Peace be upon you.
Most often we are lied to, cheated out of our abilities and skills by shinny things that when we pursue doesn’t lead us to a place where we find fulfilment.
Who are you really? Try to find out.
Scenario 4
In fact, the path to awakening is not mine. It’s yours. Find answers to your own questions.
Scenario 5:
Being humble or humbling oneself before God doesn’t mean to clothe yourself with the calm deceptions of a catholic priest. It means being quiet, sitting calm but asking sharp probing questions in your spirit at the base of your brain, sometimes violently but retaining the candour. You’ll emerge with LIGHT. Your awakening
Scenario 6:
The Rainbow of thoughts: – if u have failed to succeed at some point. You might have encountered these.
New Age Movement: You are not hardworking; you don’t believe in your dreams/self.
African Sect Churches (Spiritual Christians): someone has gone behind your back, let’s pray for you
Christian: You have to believe in God to give you work. Pray.
Buddhist (Eastern Religions): Your chakra is in disarray; you keep on attracting negative energy. We’ll balance your energy fields through sounds and meditation.
Everyone is right in the above scenario. And so I went on to wrestle with God and with man and asked questions and I saw through.
I discovered that the mind and what one chooses to do thereafter is what matters.
You are the creator of your destiny.
Problem is, you want to compare yourself with your neighbor.
