Welcome to The Eomma Talks.

As a first blog, my initial topic on guarding your mind would have been a bit difficult to follow because of the many terms that I would have used whilst writing my blog. So I have chosen this topic as my introductory talk. In my blog, each time I refer to God, I mean Yahweh. This is the name God has asked that he be called.

Times are changing with more and more people having this feeling of inadequacy, mental health, relationship breakdown, frustration, fear of failing and contentment with the past and all it has to offer is fast crumbling. I believe the solution to regaining of control of your life is through the reconnection of the mind with your spiritual self. The Man that God made you to be in the first place. We have compromised our conscience to suit the general drift of thought without thinking of the consequences.

I will try not to embellish the truth so you can benefit from it. I have learnt most of the topics I will be discussing with you through personal life experience and as you know, life experience is often not polite or embellished so I will talk from my heart. Most times we think we are in the know and begin to advise God on what we want and exactly how we want it. There is absolutely nothing wrong with making specific requests but it has to be done in line with the principles God put in place for managing the earth and heavenly realms. One thing I have learnt is that God is not moved by lip service or tears to cause Him to change. God is who he says he is and if you want to get his attention you have to tread the principles he laid out. This principle is for the benefit of all men.

It is important to know where we stand in our belief. In the bible God said he does not like people who cannot make up their mind whether they are for him or not. He also said he cannot stand idols and he will destroy them. God also said he adores worship so this means he wants to be worshipped.

Belief

When you think of yourself, would you say that you:

• hold a strong belief there is God.
• Or would you say that sometimes you have doubts if there is God.
• In the case of the 2nd answer, do you believe there is power sharing between God and the devil?
• Or have you decided that you believe in the devil?
• Finally, you would prefer not to believe in either God or the devil or anything.

The reason I am asking is because it is not really possible for anyone not to hold a belief and it is not possible for anyone not to be aligned to that which is good or bad. As we know, the society standard is that God is good and the devil is bad or evil.

Whatever belief you have expressed, I suppose you must have weighed each option before making a choice. It could be that you already dismissed the talk about God and the devil as I have heard people say as ‘nonsense’. If you take a moment to reflect on this, you will find it can’t be true as this people must have been operating under a belief system. Everyone has a code of principles and if you will: superstitions and everyone imagines that these rules help them navigate life successfully. They deal with crisis situations based on their own self-belief. So, in crisis, they adopt this belief in the hope that it would resolve the situation. The more your formula appears to work, the more trust they put in themselves. They are self-believers and do not acknowledge God or even the devil and any other gods other than themselves. In short, what they have actually saying to people is that they are a god and they hold the absolute power to direct their life and end it as they please. But they missed out their absence in the creation of their own lives.

Self-belief is built out of the materials passed on be it by Christians, Satanists, Pagans, idol or other religious or secular groups. All the books you have for resolving your relationship issues, the online apps for sleep, fitness apps, financial news to see what is influencing the market, and how about the astrology reports in the newspaper column. Someone taught you how to say “touch wood”, and presented you with good luck charms. Now wait for it: did you visit a card reader at the funfair, celebrate Halloween. You read about Mediums and you visited one to enquire about you dead loved one. These and more have built your belief-system irrespective of whether you choose to acknowledge God or the devil. Deep inside of you, you know on whose side you stand. Honestly, we all have beliefs and the only difference is that some people have a more organized form of belief which they practice regularly to bring out whatever results that their heart yearn for.

To make it easier to follow, if you do not believe in God, you are a non-believer and that makes you a god unto yourself, a small deity with human conceptions and no laid foundation. God views any god other than himself as an idol. The issue with self-belief is that like other gods, they crave worship and ascribe ultimate power to themselves. As an idol, a non-believer is always in direct collision with God Yahweh.

The good news in all this is that God said he welcomes anyone who comes to him and he will never turn the person away. Ego is the main factor why people think they are non-believer. Let it go because it carries a self-destructive penalty. All you need to do is retune your thought and accept that you believe in God. It costs you absolutely nothing except your ego.

God

This is a subject that would cause a lot of debate both from theologian, academics, atheist etc that will go on and on. But how empty is our conceptions of God. For example, we say God is all intelligent but we say his intelligence is flawed by feeding him information. We trust in our self. We despair because he has not met the time, we assigned to him. We cannot worship an all-knowing God outwardly; it means you do not believe he is what he says he is. Our motives underline our relationship. For some of us who are believers, it is pointless telling God how much you love him if you have no evidence to show this. God is simply who he says he is. No more and no less. Not to join the band of various school of thoughts and for the purpose of my podcast, I am going to tell you who I believe God to be and this is in accordance with my experience and the bible. To be in obedience to someone, you must understand who the person is.

• I believe God is the creator uncreated.
• He has no beginning and no end – Eternal
• He says call me I AM THAT I AM
• He is Immortal                       
• He is Good
• Omnipotent
• Omnipresent
• He is Love
• He is Spirit
• He is infinite intelligence
• Eternal Truth
• He is Perfect
• He is limitless
• He is Holy
• He is Lord over all
• He is the sanctifier

We have become so infamously wise and we believe God should be taking advice from us. When our heart is not clear with our belief we struggle. We can diligently search and understand God so we can receive from him. Different people would like different answered prayers and God is more than able if it is presented with love because he is love. If we do not show gratitude for life, truth and love, how can we hope to ask with the right attitude. Just like in a relationship, simply asking someone to love you back will not necessarily make them do so. God has asked us to love Him. You should take the first baby step and come to God with your whole heart. God understands about your human flaws, remember he created you so you cannot hide from him. The bible tells us that even before you thought of asking for forgiveness of sin, he sacrificed his son Jesus Christ. Jesus was with God right from the beginning of creation waiting for the appointed time so he can mend the relationship between God and Man. We should be sincere in our love for God

Jesus Christ

Jesus is the son of God and he came to destroy the works of the devil. The works of the devil started in the garden of Eden. Man was conceived out of sin. The devil tempts us through our five senses. There are five entrances into the body and these are the five senses: sight, hearing, smell, touch and taste. These senses are the gateway to all the good, the bad and the ugly things you hold in your mind. It sums up pretty much how you perceive the world around. We need to be watchful of what we take in through our senses. By watchfulness I mean a habitual struggle to be always good. This in itself is reverence and a prayer. Our relationship here on earth mimic our relationship with God. Jesus taught us about the love of God in the parable of the lost sheep. The Shepherd left 99 of his flock to go in search of the one lost sheep. This parable in in keeping with the conception of who God is. Jesus taught God’s love for us. If someone you are in a relationship earnestly making efforts not to offend you will be eager to support the person. But if we make no efforts, we will grow worse in doing bad. So, when we feel we got it wrong, take steps to make it right. This is what Jesus taught us. It is a struggle but I know because I can silly mistakes but I feel God’s love always around me

Satisfy yourself and not anybody else that you are not an idol, believe in God and believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God who died for our sin. Please make this prayer to ensure that any past, present or future sin is atoned. In the book John 3: 16  it says that whoever believe in Jesus is not condemned and whoever that does not is condemned. The passage reads:

“God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. Gain strength and gain it in the right and sustainable way. There are many testimonies affirming this.

What do you have to lose but ego? Trash that ego that is stealing your future and holding you prisoner. If you had made this prayer before please continue with a sincere love for God.

Thank you and I love you with the love of God.
