Maria Duval - You Are Empowered By God

You Are Empowered By God
by Karon Thackston ? 2006, All Rights Reserved Did you know God has provided ways in His word to empower His children? Did you know there are specific things you can do to contribute to answered prayer, good health, a peaceful life and more? It's true! Once we are saved, we don't just float through our days hoping to catch God in a good mood when He is willing to answer prayer or provide for our needs. His word gives us many things we can do continually to set His hand in motion. Covenant Promises Open your Bible to some of the verses where God states the promises He is willing to bestow on His children. For instance, Deuteronomy 28 is filled with blessings. What do you notice about how this chapter begins? "Now it shall come to pass, IF you diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God?" Then, at the end of the blessings section of this chapter (verse 13) what do we see again? "And the Lord shall make you the head and not the tail; you shall be above only and not be beneath, IF you heed the commandments of the Lord your God?" If we do what God instructs us to do then He will give us all He has promised to give. This if/then type of promise is called a covenant promise. It operates the same as when an attorney draws up a contract between two people. One party agrees to do a particular thing and - after it is done - a second party agrees to do something else. God empowers us to have control of certain circumstances by offering us these covenant promises or blessings. You Go First God usually wants us to take the action He has laid out in His word before we are rewarded. He empowers us to do what we should then rewards us once we have done it. Luke chapter six holds other good examples of ways God has empowered us. In verse 37, Jesus instructs, "Judge not and you shall not be judged. Condemn not and you shall not be condemned." Verse 38 continues in the same way by saying, "Give and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over; men shall give unto your bosom. For with the same measure you use, it shall be measured back to you." Again, we go first. If we give, we shall receive. Whatever measure we use to give to God, that's the same measure He will use to give to us. We have the control. We make the first move. I Peter 3:7 shows yet another good example. "Husbands, likewise, dwell with [your wives] with understanding, giving honor to the wife, as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered." When husbands treat their wives as God says they should, they give more power to their prayers. The husband's prayers are not hindered because of his actions. If he treats his wife in an ungodly manner, his prayer will be hindered. In this example, the husband has the power. As you read through your Bible this week, make note of the times God empowers us. You may want to make a list or mark the verses in your Bible as you find them so you can remember when to act and what to do to release God's best in your life. Many times our actions are all that stand in the way of answered prayers. Is God waiting on you?

Tired of prayers that seem to go unanswered? There is a defined process in God's word that brings about powerful results. Karon's book, The Faith Process (http://www.marketingwords.com/faith.html), shows you 10-steps that will empower you to receive everything that's rightfully yours as a child of the Almighty God.

The Philadelphia Experiment: New Evidence Surfaces 4
It's taken me some time to be able to write this article. That's because I am in awe of the time travel prophecy that came my way just a year and a half ago. I shouldn't be because it's happened before. I clearly remember sitting in a quiet room in the late 1980s when Preston Nichols, Al Bielek and Duncan Cameron spoke of a cataclysmic event that would occur sometime in the future of New York City. As my video camcorder captured their every word, I remember how reluctant they were to talk about it. Their reluctance seemed almost dutiful and preprogrammed. Watching that video today, I know they were describing the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. To recap from previous articles: On February 12, 2004, a woman that I'll refer to as Virginia was joined by her husband and two friends to clean out a small room that existed on the second floor of their newly purchased retirement home in Maryland. The eighty-five year old house needed an interior facelift. With Contractor work set to begin shortly, the four had the task of removing items from a smaller room that was going to become part of a larger open area when everything was completed. As the small group of people prepared the items for removal, they suddenly felt sick to their stomachs. A green mist appeared in the room accompanied by the form of a man and the odor of over-heated circuitry. He looked like a sailor wearing a long out of date naval uniform. Before anyone could react, the sailor looked at the group and said, "2005. Watch out for 2005! They're playing with your future!" After that, the Sailor faded into the wall and the green mist quickly dissipated. All agreed later that they had heard his voice and everyone heard the same thing. They described the Sailor's voice as deep and full, but sounding a bit muffled. Despite the seemingly over-dramatic words and manner of the misty sailor, it would be a mistake to dismiss the incident out of hand. I have carefully researched this event as time and finances have allowed since it first occurred over a year ago. My investigations have leaded me to believe that it's not a work of fiction and likely occurred as reported. Although I have dutifully reported the progress of my investigation through follow-up articles, I have not turned the entire situation into some sort of carnival atmosphere. I knew that this event would somehow play out and now it has. Hurricane Katrina was more then just a weather event; it was a catastrophe of almost unprecedented proportions. Was that the nature of the sailor's warning? It's hard to say because there doesn't seem to be any direct connection between the two events, at least on the surface. Digging deeper has uncovered some disturbing facts that we all may want to consider before drawing any final conclusions. The manipulation of weather has long been a priority for the United States. One need only look at HAARP (High frequency Active Auroral Research Program). The notorious HARRP array in Alaska is said to have the ability to bounce electromagnetic beams off the upper atmosphere and focus them for the purpose of heating the ionosphere. Although touted as the building block for an advanced military communication and tracking system, there can be no doubt that HAARP has the ability to cause some type of weather changes. It may be no accident that HAARP is also a direct descendent of ELF and Radiosonde research. ELF is a special low frequency radio system used to allow for communication with submarines deep under the sea. The Radiosonde is a radio sounding device. These devices are used by the National Weather Service and often placed on weather balloons. HAARP, ELF and Radiosonde devices have long been connected to research that goes hand in hand with the Philadelphia Experiment technologies. The mind control aspect of the Philadelphia Experiment was said to have involved the use of microwave, Radiosonde and other technologies that could have preceded or coincided with the development of ELF and HAARP. The technology used for the invisibility effect achieved during the original P.E. experiments affected the minds of those involved. This left the door wide open to explore the possible use of that technology for mind control. Imagine the military or political benefits that could be derived from the successful deployment of mind control devices? However, those devices would only be as good as their ability to operate over a widespread area. The development of additional technologies to assure that would be possible may have also assisted in the discovery and deployment of things like ELF, HAARP and Radiosondes. However, there can be no doubt that the use of these technologies to control weather would be equally as beneficial from a political or military standpoint. Weather manipulation can provide obvious benefits in terms of record harvests, national revenues and tourism. The danger, however, is the same one that exists with time travel. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. You cannot attempt to alter the past or future without the potential of doing serious damage to yourself or others. That's because we do not yet possess the ability to fully manipulate time. To do that, we would have to have a complete database of its ebb and flow. Most would concede the implausibility of being able to create such a concise record. However, that would not stop us and probably has not stopped us from attempting to control weather or time. Our Space Program provides a good model for this. Once we discovered that the technologies to take us out into Space could be developed, we went ahead full throttle. As with Time Travel and Weather Control technologies, the potential political, economic and military benefits derived from diversified missile and rocket projects were just tempting to ignore. No one was concerned about being able to control how many missiles were eventually deployed, the amount of space junk that would end up in orbit or the number of people who might die during space missions. Worrying about all that would come later. Despite the horrendous damage we might due to our planet in trying to control the weather, I have no doubt that such considerations play a secondary role. I am certain that many scientists have convinced themselves that we now know enough about our ecosystem to be able to predict almost any potential problem with weather control. Likewise, the scientists and engineers working on time travel projects have likely adopted the popular theory that says that Time is actually a big circle with no beginning or end. That would allow for movement anywhere within that circle. Any changes would merely become part of the norm, despite the fact that large numbers of people, places or things may be permanently altered or simply cease to exist. Acceptance of the big circle theory when it comes to Time Travel may have opened a Pandora's Box that can never be closed. It might not be unreasonable to suggest that the government would use available weather alteration technologies to cause what seems like a catastrophe to fix or prevent a problem created or detected by their Time Travel program. Such a problem could end up being ten times worse then the disaster they may have caused to fix or prevent it. Most people think in the now. When considering the past, present or future, they do so in relation to the reality they know. Suppose it were possible to consider any number of possible realities, choose one and replace those less desirable? The problem is that accomplishing that switch may come with unforeseen consequences. When it comes to time travel, little problems can quickly become big ones requiring more then just a little tweaking of a desired time line. Because New Orleans is one of America's largest ports, it's not unreasonable to consider the possibility that something terrible may have happened requiring a PE-style time travel fix and subsequent alteration of the present as a preventative measure. There could have been a dirty bomb or biological attack by terrorists bringing something into that port. A hurricane might have been just the distraction needed for U.S. Authorities to deal with the threat in a quiet way. Less then a year ago there was a story on the major cable news networks of a cargo ship carrying something dangerous on board. The ship was headed toward the east coast of the U.S. The last I heard was that the Coast Guard was going to intercept the ship far offshore because they had word of a credible threat. Following those reports, the story and the ship just vanished. Nothing more was said. I went to the CNN and Fox News websites looking for the story that both networks had reported. The story was gone. This is not conjecture or guesswork, it's fact. Hurricane Katrina and the possibilities it has provided as a fulfillment of the time traveling sailor's prophecy is something we should all carefully consider. For me, the shoe fits and fits very well. We can only hope that the next warning we receive will be one that allows us to take some preventative action. The very nature and dramatic accent of the 2004 warning leaves me with the sinking feeling that it was motivated more by desperation, then the hope that anyone had the ability to stop what was coming.

WithInAsThru Your Choice to Create Consciously
Life is not a process of discovery, but a process of creation and pure choice. All that you perceive in your world is the outcome of your idea about it. You are always fully engaged in this process, whether you are aware of it or not, conscious to this truth or not. This is because nothing in life is ever just happening to you, your life, as you live it, is occurring withinasthru you, as you create and choose your life to be. Even as you are sitting here, reading these words, your life is occurring withinasthru you. Now all you need to do is decide what you will choose next. What will be your next creation?

The first step is getting clear about what you desire. Desire is the beginning of creating your dreams, true. Desire comes before thought. It is a heart passion felt withinasthru your very soul. We have all been told, "ask and it shall be given" and "knock and doors will open." Desire is our way of asking, our process of knocking. The promise is that you always get what you ask for. Your promise then, is to ask. Ask with a readiness to receive.

Once you have clarity of desire, engage the process of creation with your very next thought. Thought is the next step through the doorway manifested by your desire. Nothing exists, or has ever existed without a thought. From the simplest concept to the most complex invention, everything begins with a thought. Thoughts create ideas, words and things.

The next step in creation is word. Every word is a thought revealed. Words are creative and send creative energy, withinasthru your life. Words are more vibrant than thought, because they occur differently withinasthru you, once spoken. They disrupt, or change, the field of creation that you’ve engaged with greater impact. Speak and hear yourself speak. Listen to the words that you have created. Once words of desire and thought have been spoken, the dream is permanent; an infinite part of the creative process. Only then can there be action.

Actions are words in motion. Words are thoughts expressed. Thoughts are ideas formed. Ideas are energies of desire manifested. Energies of desire are magnetic forces released. Forces are elements in existence. Elements are particles of the all that is, the very stuff everything is.

To think, speak and act upon inspired desires creates a burning passion to be something, to do something, to have something. Now add the ingredient of knowing. Add the modesty of gratitude. Because once you have the desire that you’ve asked for withinasthru thought, word and action, there is no other prayer necessary than a prayer of thanksgiving. The more you learn to live in this place of knowingness, the more you live with a constant and ever-expanding gratitude. Be grateful for what you create and you will feed the creative process. Creation without gratitude is often fleeting, because it lacks the appreciation to hold it in existence.

If there is an aspect of creation you find you no longer enjoy, thank it for what it has taught you and move on to the next beginning with a new desire, a new thought, a new word, a new action. Your next action. Simply choose again. Request the next fulfillment to your desire and this circle continues withinasthru your entire life, exactly as it is occurring withinasthru you right now.

Your life is can be created consciously, the choice is yours. It is up to you to manifest your dreams through desire, thought, word and action. It all moves withinasthru you as energy. Your energy. Your light. You can never give up on creation; you are doing it every second of every day. Breathing is a creation. Sleeping is a creation. Holding a loved one is a creation. Continue creating and you are on your way to revealing the life of your dreams. Your life �" lived WithInAsThru you.

Give A Smile-Get A Smile
In today’s world of technology we do not have ample opportunity to get personal. Life is fast-paced and everyone seems to be in a rush. We dial the phone and we talk to machines. We spend long hours on the computer playing games, emailing one another or working with our web pages. Even in the office environment, we email the person in the cubicle 3 feet away instead of walking over to hand them a task list. Don’t get me wrong. I love technology. I cannot imagine ever being without my computer and am guilty of spending a large part of my day working on line. The computer and Internet afford many opportunities. Now at no charge outside of my Internet connection I can communicate with persons all over the world. If screened carefully young people have a world of education available at their fingertips. I could continue to expound on the many benefits that technology has brought into our lives. However, that is not the gist of this article. As a result of the technological age of today’s world, our personal touch with one another is decreasing. We need to take full advantage of the opportunity to be personal. Humans are becoming strangers to one another. People are in a hurry to get on with the business of living and walk past each other on the street without even a nod. Have you wondered why there is so much clinical depression in the world today? Ask yourself why our young people are so distressed. Why so many of them attempt suicide or worse the murder of their classmates or families. Do you conclude as I do that we need more of a personal touch? Have you taken notice to how you felt when you were standing in line at a bank and someone turned and smiled at you. Prior to that smile you were feeling very anxious, possibly tapping your foot in impatience. You weren’t very happy to be there waiting in a long line. You had things to get done and you were getting more frustrated by the minute. It was one of the mundane drudgeries we all have to go through. Then comes this smile from the person in the line next to you and suddenly you feel much better. You are compelled to smile back. You do so without giving it thought, as though it is a natural inclination to reciprocate the smile. Think about it, don’t you feel compelled to smile back when someone smiles at you? Doesn’t if lift your mood, and bring you out of a frustrated frame of mind? But that smile does so much more than that. It makes you feel accepted and liked. Somebody cares, and shares the things you go through. It makes you part of a group, a integral part of the human race. If you do not think that our society, do research into why our young people join gangs. The kids will tell you they are seeking to belong, to be a part of something. The gang becomes an extension of the family. There is power in the smile, you see. It’s as though that instant someone waved a wand and all the drudgery disappeared. You suddenly feel warm and responsive and the person who offered you a smile has just gone from a stranger to be wary of to a kindred spirit. Sometimes a conversation is started and now the mundane drudgery has actually become an enjoyable experience. You no longer feel frustrated and rushed and in spite of yourself and enjoying yourself. The world is now warm and fuzzy instead of cold, fearful and bitter. I do not mean to imply that giving and receiving a smile is the solution to the world’s problems, but it is a very good place to start. We all need to feel that sense of belonging. We are after all members of the same human family. We should feel moved to embrace each other in our hearts and minds. So go ahead and smile. I dare you. But be careful. You might find the world a friendlier place to live. You might find that people are warm and kind and appreciative. Your smile might just make their day.

The World Peace Religion’s Anna Nicole Smith Prophecies
The Holy Bibles are a combination of law books, tabloids and ancient prophecies. The authors knew that the people were more likely to read law books if they were mixed with gossip and parables. The intense interest in the Anna Nicole Smith case shows that people have not changed that much in the last few thousand years. Think of people as containers inside of which are savage animals, kind holy spirits and ruthless lying evil spirits. When a person ‘dies’ their spirit often ascends into the light. In this state our spirits communicate by means of mental telepathy. Just because your spirit while you are ‘alive’ is confined to a human body does not mean that it loses its ability to communicate by mental telepathy. A perfect example would be the psychic ablities of Allison Dubois and her three delightful daughters Ariel, Bridgette and Marie Dubois on the hit television show ‘Medium’. People think that it is perfectly normal to speak to spirits during prayer but if the spirit speaks back to the person then that person is schizophrenic, suffering from auditory hallucinations and must be heavily medicated, like Anna Nicole Smith. Former Playboy Playmate of the Year Anna Nicole Smith died of an accidental drug overdose at the young age of 39 on Feb. 8, 2007 in Hollywood Florida. Karen Fish is a member of The Temple of Love aka The World Peace Religion. Karen Fish is a 27 year old writer currently living in Los Angeles California. For some reason unknown to her, on January 11, 2007 Karen Fish began to write a series of 7 articles about Anna Nicole Smith. Often spirits speak to us and we have no idea that it is happening. It sounds identical to our own thoughts. Sometimes the spirit communications, prophecies, come straight out and sometimes they come in code. The great prophet Nostradamus wrote down the names of the 3 anti Christs in code hundreds of years in addvance. The first one was named Napoleon although spelled slightly differently. The second was Hister, Hitler, and the third is Mabus. Many skeptics will say that this was coincidence and perhaps they are right. Like medicine, prophecy is an art not a science and different conditions are subject to different interpretations. On January 11, 2007, just under a month prior to the death of Anna Nicole Smith, Karen Fish wrote an article called “Anna Nicole Smith Marries Ayatollah Ali Khamenei”. http://la.indymedia.org/news/2007/01/191440.php http://ezinearticles.com/?Anna-Nicole-Smith-Marries-Ayatollah-Ali-Khamenei&id=415691 In this article written on Jan. 11, 2007 Karen Fish wrote: “Muqtada al-Sadr served as best man and security was provided by Muqtada’s Mahdi Army, which had little trouble keeping the paparazzi at bay. The Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said, “You can never be too careful given what happened to Princess Diana and the United States navy and air force steaming towards me in the Persian Gulf. My doctor says that I have more lives than a cat.” Karen Fish continued: “Anna Nicole Smith spoke at her wedding. Here is what she said: “I know that the tabloids are going to say that I married Ali for his money. Kanye West is going to say that I’m a gold digger. I would like to put that vicious rumor to rest. My psychiatrist says that I have a daddy complex. Take my last husband. Please. He was 63 years older than me. Maybe I have a great grandfather complex. It’s because I was abused as a child. I seem to be making progress. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is only 28 years older than I am. He’s a 68 year old spring chicken next to J.H. My astrologer thinks that I have this Grace Kelly thing happening…Fortunately nobody here knows my track record because they censored it. Plus these people don’t know from contracts. I’ve made so much money for so many divorce lawyers that I have a building at the Harvard Law School named after me, right Reese?... So we went to the emergency room at the Shariati Hospital in Tehran and they gave him some Maalox. I guess he got excited being with his first Playboy Playmate of the Year. He tells me that his goal is to create a world Islamic state. I like men with ambition. He promised me that he wouldn’t hurt you Hef. So I want all of you to have a really great time tonight and thank you all for coming.” Princess Diana died in a car accident while her car was being chased in Paris by the paparazzi. Princess Diana made the fatal mistake of not putting on her seat belt. Anna Nicole Smith made the fatal error of not going to the emergency room when her fever hit 105. Why did she refuse to go to the emergency room? She had a private nurse, a private doctor, a bodyguard and a private lawyer and she did not go to the emergency room because she did not want to be swarmed by the paparazzi hordes. As with Princess Diana, the obscene idolization of Anna Nicole Smith by the human people and the paparazzi hordes led to her death. Grace Kelly was an American Actress who married Prince Rainier, the European Prince of Monaco. Anna Nicole Smith was also an American Actress whose last movie “Illegal Aliens” is about to debut. Princess Grace died in a car accident involving her daughter Princess Stephanie. Princess Diana, Princess Grace and Anna Nicole Smith all died young in accidents. At the time that baby Dannielynn was conceived Anna Nicole Smith was having a secret affair with European Prince Frederic von Anhalt. Prince Frederic von Anhalt says that if Larry Birkhead is not the father of Dannielynn Smith then he may be. Prince Frederic von Anhalt has filed for paternity of Dannielynn Smith and undergone a DNA test. After her beloved son Daniel Smith died Anna Nicole Smith contacted her astrologer in Los Angeles to contact her son Daniel Smith. Anna became convinced that Daniel Smith was trapped in purgatory and she wanted to go rescue him. It was because of the evidence on her laptop computer that the police have ruled out suicide. On January 23, 2007 Karen Fish wrote an article about Prophecy and Synchronicity called “Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and Anna Nicole Smith Buy Raytheon Co.” http://www.opednews.com/articles/opedne_karen_fi_070123_ayatollah_ali_khamen.htm Karen Fish portrays Anna Nicole Smith using her laptop computer to type in S(ch)wab dot com. The article is about the warming relationship between the leaders of Russia, China and Iran. The headline today reads “China, Russia Leaders Reject Force on Iran, N. Korea.” http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070326/wl_nm/china_russia_hu_dc The bottom line is that this all may be coincidence or it may be prophecy. The big question is “How do spirits know the future if it hasn’t happened yet?” The lesson in all of this is that human beings are far better off using their own God given minds to save themselves than ancient prophecies just like we are better off using DNA swabs to determine the real father of Dannielynn Smith than the words of psychics. The people of earth long for world peace. Instead of waiting for messiahs which may or may not be the products of ancient imaginations to bring us world peace why don’t we just stop fighting? If 200 people stand up today at the United Nations and all vote for world peace then we can have it by tonight for the next 5 billion years. Then we can get back to analyzing the Anna Nicole Smith case without unnecessary distractions.
