Mankind has been bequeathed with the culture of praying to God with the belief that the course of events in their lives can be changed through prayer. This belief stems from the orthodox teachings which makes man believe that God Almighty is sitting on a throne somewhere and watching every move of his creations so that God can please and dance to their whims and caprices. This belief has led man to continuously bombard God with prayers. ‘Prayer warriors’ abound within the land and across the world believing that God can actually be dictated to on what IT should do or not do.
Any individual who indulges in these acts do not know God and as such conducts this exercise in futility.
Is it possible to pray to change the will of God?
Is it possible for man to change the course of events through prayer?
Is it possible for man to understand the will of God in all situations?
What is destiny and how can man escape it?
What then has control over my life whether I pray or not?
Every religion agrees that creation has been concluded by God. If this is true, it implies that all possible scenarios and situations and possible solutions have already been concluded and worked out by God and as such all the individual needs to do is to resolve such situations through the process of manifestation.
In other words, since God has concluded creation, we cannot create any new thing that is not already in existence.
This implies that all possible thoughts, words and actions including our feelings have been concluded by God and are being administered through laws that have been put in place by the Holy Spirit. What man is then required to do then is to consciously study and understand the laws of the Holy Spirit and work in harmony with such laws so that man can realize the goals and objectives of his or her life.
As written earlier, God Almighty created all the universes through the agency of the Holy Spirit also known and referred to as the word of God. The Holy Spirit is also known as the Divine Love of God in action. Through this Holy Spirit, the whole creations of God are created, sustained and maintained until the end of time in this scheme of things and this creation cycle.
This Holy Spirit descending from the heart of God in a spiral and centrifugal motion, moves from the pure heavens of God towards the end of creations in all the universes, giving life to all creations and in a centripetal fashion, returns into the heart of God as a returning wave.
It is this returning wave that Soul in HU-man uniform needs to ‘catch’ to return back into the pure heavens of God.
Now Soul, an individualized atom of the Holy Spirit is on a spiritual program to learn how to give and receive love, then graduate into maturity and progress to become a co-worker with God. Its mission is to serve anywhere in the universes of God after going through this elaborate spiritual program.
So the first thing the individual needs to learn is that he is at school in this world whether he or she realizes it or not. However, it is the responsibility of the individual to find out the veracity of this statement.
Secondly, as the Holy Spirit individualized, Soul in HU-man uniform shares the same characteristics with God however in an unrealized form. These are omnipotence, omnipresence and omniscient. In simple language this implies that Soul, the spiritual aspect of man has the ability to be everywhere, all powerful and all knowing. But looking at man today, man cannot be said to be all powerful, all knowing and everywhere. This is simply because man has forgotten who he is and the spiritual aspect of himself known as Soul.
Man also shares three attributes of God namely: wisdom, freedom and love (charity). However, a combination of these three actually leads the individual to love. But again, because man does not know who he is, in his ignorance he descends to the level of the prodigal son and ‘begs for a crust of bread’
So let man not be deceived and let him know that anytime he prays to the Holy Spirit for anything he is simply being selfish because he is simply praying to God to do things in his own favor rather than letting the will of God be!
He prays only to himself since he is the Holy Spirit Individualized.
Thirdly let man know that there are spiritual laws that govern the thoughts, words and actions of man and these spiritual laws are fashioned after the three attributes mentioned earlier. They are the laws of Wisdom, Freedom and Love.
An aspect of the Law of Love which has control over our lives whether we pray or not is known as the Law of Karma, the Law of Cause and Effect commonly referred to as the law of Karma and Reincarnation. This Law simply states that for every thought, word, action, inaction or feeling, there exists a corresponding opposite and equal effect. In simple language, man pays for every thought, word, action and inaction in equal coin in every circumstances of his training while at this school in the lower worlds.
Everything man thinks, says and does is recorded in the little part of his consciousness known as conscience which is like a little computer that records everything. So when man prays to God in his ignorance and thinks he can reap cocoyam when he actually sowed plantain, he is living in a world of self delusion.
This is why sometimes man wonders why God has not answered his prayers like other people and he carries his little savings to ‘dash’ the ‘man of God’ that will help him tell God his problems. This is the reason why so many ‘men of God’ are able to buy expensive cars and jets while most of their followers wallow in poverty. It is also the reason why that ‘profession’ is the most lucrative in the world today but they (pseudo men of God) also cannot escape the wheel of karma and reincarnation no matter how long it takes to deceive other people.
When man dies leaving behind debts (stealing from people!) or has credits by giving love to people, and he has unsettled accounts, the Lords of Karma ensures that the individual returns through the process of reincarnation to come and reap what they have sown, either good or bad. Some of us have been coming and going for more that 30 Million years but every lifetime is wiped from the memory of the individual and he lives life as if it is the first time.
