According to 2 Kings 6:8-14, there was a period of time, that Israel and Syria were warring against one another. The Syrians would often attempt, to set-up ambushes upon Israel. However, all these military strategies would fail – because Elisha (the Prophet of Israel) would tell the King – what areas to stay away from!
The King of Syria eventually became furious. He even accused his own people of sharing military secrets with the opposition…until he learned, that it was indeed Elisha who was protecting Gods’ people! As a result, of this treason – the King of Syria wanted Elisha dead!
Now, Elisha and his young disciple fled into a mountainous city called Dothan, but word got back to the King of Syria – and he immediately sent his best troops to that location. To catch Elisha, by surprise – the troops were sent out by night and then surrounded the city.
When Elishas’ disciple, woke up and went out, early the next morning – he only saw the Syrian Army – with horses and chariots all throughout the mountains. “Oh, my lord, what are we going to do?!” the disciple asked. “Don’t be afraid,” Elisha answered. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”
2 Kings 6:17
Then Elisha prayed, “O LORD, open his eyes so he may see.” Then the Lord opened the young man’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.
I shared this story and scriptures with you, just to convey one principle point:
“Just because we don’t see [it], doesn’t mean [it] isn’t there!” ~Dwayne B. Neal
According to the wisdom of Kabbalah, when we SEE (experience) life, through our limited five senses – we’re only perceiving 1% of the truth. However, if we’re able to see beyond the limits of the 1% – we will and experience life from another perspective – a God perspective – a real, true and authentic perspective.
With that being said, we have only a few hours remaining in this week to SEE and experience Life, from “Gods’ point of view” – and tap into another reality.
Yes, we can tap into the “99% Reality” at any moment. Paradoxically, however, the Kabbalists also teach, that each measure of “time” (year, month, week, day, hour…etc.) Has a specific type of energy that comes along with it.
Subsequently, the energy and scripture reference for this week can be found in:
Deuteronomy 30:15 (KJV) — SEE, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;
Without getting into all that principles that this scripture conveys – it’s important to remember, that we’re either seeing (experiencing) the “good life” – that is set before us, or the “bad life” that is set before us. Think of our life experiences as a coin: we’re either seeing the heads (representing the good life and/or blessings) – or – we’re seeing the tails (representing the bad life and/or curses). Now, it’s very interesting to note, that just because we’re seeing only one side of the coin – doesn’t mean that the other side of the coin doesn’t exist.
That’s the power of this week! If we’re experiencing a contentious relationship – we get to see peace and harmony within this relationship; if we’re experiencing sickness and ill health – we get to see our healing; if we’re seeing overdrafts and negative account balances – we get to experience our prosperity!
Paradoxically, if we’re already seeing “the good life” – then we get the opportunity to see Satan. But not in a bad or negative sense…we get to see – when “he” (anthropomorphically speaking) attempts to ambush us – and thwart our Visions (pun intended) – and plans that God has prepared for us. With this seeing (knowing) – we can sidestep “his” booby traps – and continue with “the good life” experience.
1 Peter 5:8b (KJV) – because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
For us to see the true reality of our lives – and to access the remaining of this week’s energy; I suggest that we employ the use of the Hebrew Letters. Our eyes are the most advanced scanner and transmitters of spiritual energy for our Soul. The Hebrew letters work as barcodes of the spiritual energy – allowing us to access the positive aspect, of our internal Nature.
Scanning these sequences of letters with the intention of seeing “Gods’ Point of View” gives us the opportunity to make this connection.
Think about the positive people, circumstances, events, and energy that you would like to see and experience today as you scan and meditate on these letters (scanning from ⬅ right to left)!
NOTE: You can also use this practice during LION’S ♌ GATE (8/8 – 8/12) – and ask to see what is your true purpose, what is important, and how you can better serve for the greatest and highest good!

If Faith is the substance and evidence of the things that we hope to have, and desire to become (and it is) {Hebrews 11:1}; And if Faith Comes by what Hear (and it does) {Romans 10:17} ….then wouldn’t it make “common sense”, for us to speak to ourselves Faithful words of self-empowerment, hope, encouragement, and Love ❤?!! I mean that only makes sense….Right?!
I do, however, understand, that paradoxically commons sense, ain’t COMMON! (With all things being consistent) Our ONLY drawback in life – is that we don’t speak – from “ourselves” (from the God within) – to ourselves (to the human part of us). Do we not know – or have we forgotten: THAT GOD IS WITHIN US?!!! {1 Corinthians 3:16}
By speaking from ourselves – TO – ourselves (using the power of the I AM) – we activate the nature of God within us. With God on our side – Any and Everything is possible. However, it is our duty and job to induce GOD into ACTION, and we do so by calling on “Him”!
REMEMBER: Within you is the power to motivate yourself !!! 💯 You are the Captain of Your own Ship….So Forget What Others Are Saying About You — WHAT ARE YOU TELLING YOURSELF?!! {1 John 4:4} 🔑🔑
Happy Monday Kings and Queens…Let’s Make It An Awesome Week (on Purpose)!!!!

Fighting for your dreams isn’t always easy – but it’s worth it – and so are you!! Yes, You Deserve “The Best” (whatever that means to you)! Whatever our definition of The Best is – the Universe offers it and we must BE Worthy enough to receive it!!
GOD is ALREADY aware of our worth – which is why “He” gave us these desires in the first place. {Psalm 37:4} It is ALWAYS GO(o)D Wisdom to remind ourselves, that we are worthy of the things – that we desire most in life.
Especially when our dreams, goals, desires, needs or wants seem impossible; and hard to come by. It is during those times that we must FIGHT FOR OUR DREAMS!! Remember: YOU ARE WORTHY!! And in the good fight of fight – there will be times that we – are required to fight – even though our best desires are ALREADY ours. Sounds like a contradiction but it’s not. Life is a paradox; and when we put of fight – God “begins to fight for us” (for lack of a better term). {Exodus 14:14 / 2 Chronicles 20:17}
“Fight for your dreams, and your dreams will fight for you!” ~Paulo Coelho
The whole wisdom 🔑🔑 is this: Never settle for nothing less, count yourself out or play yourself small – and be willing to fight for what – you’re Worthy For!!! NOTE: This doesn’t prove anything to God – only Yourself!!!
Today’s Winning Affirmation: “I AM Worthy of All my Dreams and Desires!”

Purpose is our DNA. In other words, Purpose – like ACTION – is a predetermined manifested state. For example, you don’t purposely do stuff, so that you would be human – BEING human is who you are – it is ALREADY in the creation genetic code that God would make you after “His” image.
So why do we constantly do stuff, to validate our “purpose” or seek out reason(s) for BEING here?! The simple answer is: because we don’t know who we are, or better yet, whose we are. Again, we are purposes of God…Specifically and purposely designed, to carry out the Will of God in our lives.
If we truly desire to ‘find our purpose’ (for lack of a better term) – then we must first discover who we are – and then we will discover our purpose. And here’s a hint: Our Whole Life Expression and Purpose for Living is: To Give God Glory (or better said, to Give God back the Glory that “He” has given us)!!! That’s All!!
Anything, other than – Giving God Glory – is not who you are; nor were you “meant” or “purposed” to become! We in our very essence: ARE THE GLORY OF (unto) GOD!
Ecclesiastes 3:1 – surmises that there is a time for EVERY Purpose under Heaven – and – it is YOU that is that Purpose!!! Quick Question: Is It Your Time?! Only YOU can answer that question; and you do so by the way – in which you “choose” to live your life.
Now, it’s time to turn this knowledge – into ACTION (living wisdom) – by living life as a Purpose; and BEing that which we ALREADY are: The Glory of God!

Whether we believe it or not – there is a ‘Cloud of Witnesses’ cheering us on so that we can reach our goals, dreams, desires and destinations. It is important that we remember this; especially during those times when we don’t get the support, we’re looking for – from our friends and family. We should also keep in mind, that GO(o)D is IN us! And has – and – ALWAYS WILL have our back!
David encouraged himself in the Lord! This is the Power of I AM! I AM is not only a personal statement of our BEING – but it signifies and directly points to – the God that is within us! Again, I AM is NOT just about me(us) – it is about God with me(us)!!!
So go ahead Kings and Queens – celebrate yourself – if no one else will celebrate or encourage you. Remember, you are not alone! You and God make a powerful team; and are a force to be reckoned with. Also take into consideration: King David, Moses, Abraham, Matthew, Paul…etc. – and – we dare not leave out Jesus; all of these are examples of GOD HAVING THEIR BACK! If “He” did it for them, surely “He” WILL do the same for us(in fact it’s ALREADY done)!!
Therefore, take those blessed hands of yours, reach up….and then pat yourselves on the back (encourage yourself) – knowing, that as you do – you are receiving help and support from the Universe! Because what this simple act ACTUALLY means is: THAT THE GOD OF THE UNIVERSE PATTING YOU ON THE BACK (after all it is GOD that is IN and WITH You – and don’t you EVER forget it)!!!

The Hebrews prophets, with their perfect knowledge of the Supreme Law, always related outward events to inward thought…The knowledge of the causal power of thought is the basis of all their prophecies, as it is the basis of all real wisdom and power. ~James Allen
YOUR TRUE SENSE OF SELF: Marianne Williams {The Law of Divine Compensation}
On the mortal plane, none of us are perfect all the time. But on the spiritual plane, all of us are perfect all the time. Who we really are – perfect creations of God, unchangeable and unlimited, none of us more or less brilliant than anyone else – is the most positive self-concept possible. To self-identify according to your spiritual rather than material reality is enlightenment.
From this perspective, you see that you are the light. No thought or condition of darkness – that is, lovelessness in your own mind or in anyone else’s – has any bearing whatsoever on the truth of who you are or what the universe has planned for you. Your past, your mistakes, other people’s opinions about you, even your failures do not in any way limit who you are or what is possible for you now….All of us carry the mark of God, yet we carry that mark as one. No one has any more or less capacity than anyone else to be used as a conduit for the genius that pours forth constantly from the Mind of God.
This genius pours into us as one, but is accepted by us separately. God’s greatness is a gift that is offered to all of us, but it’s our choice whether or not to receive it. We lack faith in what exists within us because we lack faith in Who exists within us. You are a child of God, carrying the eternal mark of your perfect Source. You are naturally entitled to miracles because love is what you are. This is not an arrogant appraisal of the ego, but rather a humble acceptance of God’s truth. You just happen to have within you the eternal power of the universe.
—> Matthew 5:14-16 (Complete Jewish Bible)
14 “You are light for the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.
15 Likewise, when people light a lamp, they don’t cover it with a bowl but put it on a lampstand, so that it shines for everyone in the house.
16 In the same way, let your light shine before people, so that they may see the good things you do and praise your Father in heaven.
—> John 8:12 (English Standard Version) – Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I AM the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
—> 1 John 1:5-6 (KJV)
5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
Armed with this incredible piece, we can proclaim and affirm as Jesus did:
“I AM The Light of The World” and then begin to live and operate this Divine Truth as an ACTION in our lives!

“Knowledge is power, but ACTION is King!”
My profiles:
As of late, I’ve found myself having a desire to feel better and to add to the quality of my life. For this to take place, it is imperative that I get back in shape. Believe it or not, there was a time in my life, where I had less than 5% body fat, ran (not jogged) at least 3 miles every day, and still, had plenty of energy to go to work, plus do “everything else” I wanted to do! 😉
However, after a very long hiatus of many, many years of inactivity (other than the once a year personal tradition of jogging/walking the Peachtree Road Race) – I now, find myself gasping for air after walking only a few blocks! To make matters worse, this only a couple times a week! There was a time when I could eat and drink anything I wanted – and my metabolism would dissolve the intake very quickly! But, now my stomach is overlapping my beltline regardless of how healthy I eat!
I said all of that, just to say this: that I literally, have to “get in shape” in order to get back in shape! I know it sounds like an oxymoron – but, because I “let myself go” and didn’t maintain a healthy body; it’s almost as if I’m starting over from scratch.
This is probably, what John meant when he said, “bring forth fruit meet for repentance” {Matthew 3:8} Of course, as it is often said, “Timing is everything” {Ecclesiastes 3:13}; and during this season, in particular, God is “calling” for REPENTANCE! Not only as a nation – but individually as well.
Repentance is an opportunity to return back to God. To restore everything that was seemingly lost (both spiritually and materially). Repentance done in the “right way” will also remove those blockages, that hindered our connection to God – in the first place. In this sense, repentance allows us the opportunity restore ourselves – from where we stand right now – there’s no “starting from scratch” or building ourselves up to where we “ought” to be!
Paradoxically, however, we must “get in shape spiritually” (bring forth fruit) in order to get back in shape – or in this sense – in order to bring about true and lasting repentance. Simply stated: we must get in shape, in order to get BACK in shape. What do I mean?
Well, it’s been said, that to repent means to change one’s mind. But, I say, that to repent means to change one’s State of Being (the innermost ACTION of our thoughts, feelings, and beliefs) — entirely! For this type of repentance to take place, we MUST change our mindset (bringing forth fruit) – so that our Soul and Spirit are united back with God (meet for repentance). Likewise, me walking a few blocks twice a week probably won’t get me back to where I used to be. However, it does prepare my mind and body to exert itself more…until such a time that I come to that place (bring forth fruit meet…).
For me, to even get back half-way — of where I desire to be physically; I must undergo a radical change in my mindset. I MUST prepare my mind so that my body will follow. I already know – where I desire to be – and what exactly what I’m attempting to get out of this process. Therefore, I must not look for an easy way out. I must consciously, and very deliberately examine what I eat and drink. And I MUST be more consistent in my vow to do so.
Likewise, the same attitude Spiritually MUST take place in order for us to REPENT! This, however, is not an easy process! Bringing forth the fruit of a changed mind and renewed Spirit – means embarking on a (seemingly dreadful) self-examination process. {2 Corinthians 13:5} This inward examination process includes (but not limited to):
…or any other thing that comes to mind, that appears to separate us from our Creator!
But, please take note (and this is very important!): Even in during this season of self-examination, we still must do it cheerfully and with gratitude! {Psalm 100:2A} Real repentance is not in our tears, what we regret, or in feeling sorry for ourselves. Repentance is a season where we can become fully aware that we are and will always be ONE WITH GOD:
38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
True repentance means not seeking God’s Hand (what “He” can do for us) – but, seeking God’s Face (Being in “His” Presence); so we must be truthful with ourselves. {Psalm 101:7} God already knows the truth concerning us – so it is extremely vital that we be truthful with ourselves. For example, if I attempting to run a marathon – but can’t even walk a couple of blocks – then I drastically run the risk of – doing more harm than good. This is also the case, where the Spirit is concerned!
Just remember God didn’t move – it was us that changed. We neglected to exercise our spiritual muscles – and wonder why life – is not going as it should. The good news is, we can take as much “time” (for lack of a better term) – to bring forth fruit.
2 Peter 3:9 (NIV) – The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.
Just as in the physical sense, whipping our spiritual bodies back into shape is difficult at first, but the rewards far outweigh the struggle…we just have to keep at it..until as it says, in Psalm 16:11(English Standard Version): You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore!
Now, Let’s Get BACK To Where We Know We’re Supposed To BE!! REPENT – but First, bring the right attitude!

“Knowledge is power, but ACTION is King!”
My profiles:
A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $20 bill.
In the room of 200, he asked, “Who would like this $20 bill?”
Hands started going up. He said, “I am going to give this $20 bill to one of you – but first, let me do this.”
He proceeded to crumple the 20 dollar note up. He then asked “who still wants it”?” Still, the hands were up in the air.
“Well,” he replied, “what if I do this?” He dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled and dirty. “Now, who still wants it?”
Still, the hands went in the air.
“My friends, you have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth $20!”
Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way. We feel as though we are worthless; but no matter what happened or what will happen, you will never lose your value.
Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still priceless to those who love you. The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we know, but by… WHO WE ARE!! But, more so than that, paradoxically, the more we esteem God, the more we will value ourselves! Not just who we are – but rather who we are IN GOD!!
So for today let’s affirm as it says in Psalm 139:14 (the Complete Jewish Bible Version):
I thank you because I AM awesomely made, wonderfully; your works are wonders — I know this very well.

Day 49: May 22-23, 2015 {Psalm 150 & RUTH}
Today is the energy of Nobility in Nobility. Take a moment and meditate on manifesting all the changes that you have undergone in the last 49 days. After Pesach, the Light that we received as a gift went into concealment to give us a chance to earn it back. On the eve before Shavuot, seal in your transformation. You are a new vessel, prepared to receive the Light of immortality; are you ready?

AWESOME WORK!!! WE MADE IT! The Torah teaches that the entire nation stood at Sinai to witness the giving of the Law. The rabbis teach that even future generations were present at Sinai. This represents the elevation of the Soul/Spirit…similar to the Day of Pentecost {Read Acts 2:1-21}!
Dwayne B. Neal
Everyday after sundown, starting from the second evening of Passover – until the night before (what we call) Pentecost; the following blessing is recited just prior to stating the count of the Omer:
STEP 1:
Blessed are you, Lord our God, King of the Universe who has sanctified us with His commandments, and commanded us concerning the counting of the Omer.
Today is Day 49 of the Omer.
STEP 2:
After this blessing is affirmed and the count declared – it is tradition to recite this short prayer:
O Compassionate One! May Christ return for us the Service of the Temple to its Place, speedily and in Our time! AMEN.
STEP 3: READ PSALM 67
STEP 4: Read, Meditate and Live (1)Karen Berg’s Quote above, and (2)The following Scriptures:
Special Instructions for the Evening of Day 49:
Put in the effort to read and study the first five books of the Bible…EVEN IF IT TAKES ALL NIGHT!!!
