The company I purchase bulk items from had a fire two days ago. Their headquarters burned down overnight. We received the notice yesterday. Some areas were impacted. But the dry goods were elsewhere.
It happened out of the blue. In light of that, I’m buying the things I need I didn’t get around to. Especially items related to food, home, and health.
We haven’t discussed digital currency. But look into your country’s stance on the subject and the main players. Pay attention to references on stablecoins. That’s the new fiat. But it will be global and accessed digitally. Although they market them as safe alternatives they’re really a device for spying, control and taxation. Don’t believe the spiel about regulation. They’re part of the plan (problem).
Do all you can to stay grounded. Make friends, go places, and celebrate ‘real’ life. Don’t give place to the virtual. It’s a trap. They want to make it the focal point. The lone avenue for companionship, socialization, etc. The greater your investment the more challenging life becomes.
You can be anything on the Internet. But it isn’t real. You’ll be bombarded with messages, software, and gadgets that say otherwise. Once you enter the rabbit hole there’s no return. Fantasy will take hold.
Don’t bemoan the struggles. It’s real. Find fellowship. Isolation isn’t good. As difficulties increase escape will be more enticing. The carrot will follow. The thing that makes you forget reality. That’s the hook.
When adversity strikes stand against it. Don’t bury your head or disappear into mindless activities. Battle it in prayer. The more you do the more you’ll increase your discernment. You won’t be swayed or deceived by pretenders.
You can’t contemplate a relationship without honing your spiritual eyes. Flesh will be your picker and you’ll lose where it matters most. If they don’t have fruit or consistent evidence of answered prayer they’re not an option. When you’re on His frequency He responds.
It doesn’t matter how good they look, what they have, etc. if God isn’t listening. You’re on your own. Oneness is a spiritual principle. You want someone who has your back where it matters most.
Continue fasting. Set aside a day to do so on a weekly basis. Some challenges must be addressed through the practice. It heightens your spiritual antenna. You’ll have more breakthroughs if you do.
I plan to do the same. I used to fast 1-2 times per week and did so for years. He told me to resume it. Start asking what’s on His heart. Oftentimes our dialogues are one-sided. Allow Him to guide your prayer.
That’s how I learned intercession and lectio divina. My agenda was determined by Him. It’s a powerful way to pray that deepens your trust. I only prayed what I received. Try it and see what happens.
