Prayer and Manifestation Are Not The Same. BE AWARE.

My friend, have you heard somewhere along the way that prayer is the same as manifestation? While this felt empowering at first; giving a sense of control over your life and destiny, after a while it becomes tiring. Slowly corrupting the faith you once had in God. Now you’ve falsely taken on His role. Even the faith you had within yourself, if God isn’t your stronghold yet, becomes corrupted. Especially when things fail and don’t go as planned. Sometimes you get what you want, but that’s not without opening doorways you never anticipated to open. Don’t expect peace, or genuine satisfaction. It won’t come. Just because God allows it, doesn’t mean he accepts it. Doesn't mean he ordained it. There are other dark sources at play. You go outside of God’s will when you try to make your own way. At a time this “technique” could have felt like the answer to your prayers, but you’ll eventually find yourself trying to “pray” your way out of what you once created. Never peace, always searching, or hoping for more/next. Like a hamster on a wheel.

“Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.” 2 Timothy 3:7 KJV

Or see the New living translation version,

(Such women are forever following new teachings, but they are never able to understand the truth.) 2 Timothy 3:7 NLT

That’s what happens when you play creator. Manifestation says, if you believe you deserve it, align your thoughts and actions with it…. It’s yours. Just imagine the burden within that. Constant moderation of your thoughts, feelings, and belief. Am I good, or doing enough? What’s going wrong here? All while spirits chip away at yours. Prayer says, “whatever you ask for in my name I’ll do”. Minus the unnecessary pressure you’ll place on yourself. Because the good thing is, God is for you. He's the same forever, and always. There's comfort in knowing he's in control and won't unexpectedly change.

“And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.” John 14:13 NKJV.

That burden was never yours to carry in the first place. It’s the job of your creator. Get right with him, and change your life. The one who knew and formed you before you even had a chance to question yourself.  

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.” Jeremiah 1:5 NKJV.

“Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, And He who formed you from the womb: “I amthe LORD, who makes all things, Who stretches out the heavens all alone, Who spreads abroad the earth by Myself;” Isaiah 44:24 NKJV

How can you, a creation, have creation (universe) be your source of creation? Come on now! Or perhaps you “call on your angels/guides/ancestors”? Do you not know fallen angels exist? That a third of angels fell with satan in his rebel? Perhaps you think this is all made up as a “coverup” to keep you from “your true power”. Go that route, and you’ll find in time, when the only power/faith you have only goes as far as yourself, it doesn’t bring you much at all. And definitely not without a price!

“But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand:” Matthew 7:26 NKJV

There are dark forces in this life at play. Just take a look around. How are you spiritual but spend your time manifesting only physical desires and worldly things? Living for the flesh results to death.

“For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.” Romans 8:6 ESV.

You do this, and only live for worldly/selfish things because somewhere along the way someone convinced you this is spiritual. That you’re special, and things are kept from you. That you have to tap into "your power". Don’t blame yourself now. For that’s what the great deceiver does. Just turn from these things, and drop to your knees in prayer and repentance instead.

Amen, God Bless you. May Jesus be with you. I pray you consider a change before you try to make your way. 🙏

“Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the LORD that will stand.” Proverbs 19:21 ESV
