“I Will Teach You How to Sleep Correctly” | Nick Keomahavong (Buddhist Monk)

When the Almighty God is set to bless you, no power of the enemy can stop you. That is what divine speed does to a man- it accelerates the rate of progress in life.

The issue with regard to the above mentioned title is simply this: we cannot get physically closer to God than we already are. God is here. But we can get spiritually closer to God – the ‘felt’ perspective.

The Roman Catholic Church does believe in demonic possession. In fact, they are having a conference in which more than 100 priests and bishops are gathering to discuss the topic. The Church authorities point to the New Testament story of when Jesus cast out a demon from a young boy.

Is demonic possession real? People think demons are the realm of the uneducated and simple minded… those who want to find explanations outside of science or refuse to take responsibility for their own actions. How can something we don’t see or feel be real?

There comes a time in life when you must make a change in your life today, in order to have the future you want tomorrow. Jacob had to ask his uncle and boss, Laban, the all important question; when will I build my own house also? It’s time you started asking dangerous questions.

Jesus brings this message to every single human being ever born. “And what I say to you I say to all: Keep awake.”

As a Praise and Worshipper I have discovered that man is spirit primarily before anything else. Naming and claiming things without having access to the presence of God where you can say things that are not as though they are and they appear is a futile exercise. You need to know how to enter into the Holy of Holies and I show you how in the ten insights.

What is the obstacle to the spread of genuine Christianity? It may seem a minor thing, but it is something that needs a complete change in our mentality. Surprisingly it is not something spiritual, it is something very material but it is a reflection of our state of spiritual development as Christians.

When King David found himself in difficulties he knew how to get out of these troubles and he also knew to whom he could turn. If only more leaders in corporations and business companies and nations would follow his example today! David was a man with many weaknesses but knew how to overcome these weaknesses and he knew who could strengthen him and give him courage. There were times when David would turn to the living God, the God of Israel, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the only God there is, and there David found a refuge and a security. Jesus Christ, the risen and living Son of God, gives us direction and not necessarily directions. There is a difference.

We can often wonder if God really hears and believes our prayers-of-commitment particularly as we struggle with particular areas of sin in our lives. This is more common than we realise. Indeed, just about every serious Christian will feel guilty about their issues of ongoing sin – until they accept grace.

For a day or a time we all feel it. I call it ‘BLAH’. It is unexplainable in many ways and we just don’t feel at all close to the top of our game. Its inexplicability registers with significance on the spiritual quotient.
