Friday, 7 September 2012 Thoughts And Fibromyalgia

We are comprised of both material parts and immaterial parts. Your material parts (skin, organs, limbs) are the things that are affected by disease and stress. You immaterial parts consist of every thing that cannot be touched or handled physically (mind, thoughts, beliefs, desires, emotions, feelings, soul, will). When your immaterial parts are affected due to an emotional event or trauma then your physical body responds as it is programmed to do. Your heart rate may become elevated, your may perspire, your breathing might increase, and other physical reactions will take place. How you respond to the difficulties in every day life will affect your body. With the pain of Fibromyalgia, the goal must be to glorify God in your life in spite of how painful your muscle pain is. The more you grow spiritually, and the more you apply biblical principles to the issues and problems in your life you may find relief from some of the pain associated with Fibromyalgia. This is possible because as I said above your thoughts have a great impact on what happens in your body. When you are tense or fearful your body responds with physical tension (such as a tension headache). What then happens is a cascading effect as you sense the cycle beginning, and you then begin to fear the pain which creates more tension. "We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ, "2 Corinthians 10:5 (NASB)While I understand that the pain of Fibromyalgia does not originate in the thoughts, it can be exacerbated by the thought life. Taking every thought captive to obedience means learning to glorify God in your thoughts by replacing the fearful ones with faith and truth. It means to replace the self-pitying thoughts and beliefs with thoughts of thankfulness to God. Further, it means to begin to meditate on the sovereignty of God and what that means with respect to your suffering.Understanding that a sovereign, loving God has allowed you to suffer with this pain might be a thought you will have to prayerfully adjust to. It is not easy to be thankful for pain, and it is not easy to accept that God has not only allowed it, but perhaps has brought it into your life."Shall we indeed accept good from God and not accept adversity?" Job 2:10b (NASB)Just as it was with Job, God is in control of how much pain enters our lives. He has a purpose and plan for all of it with the ultimate goal being to conform us to the image and likeness of Christ. In this sense, the pain is a "good thing" because it is a part of God's plan for your transformation (Phil 3:10). This is why what you do in the pain and what you do with the pain is so very important. Thanking God for the pain is one critical piece you will need to come to grips with. Then begin to think about how you can fulfill the responsibilities God has placed in your life. The things you are called to do daily are also no mistake, they are a part of God's sovereign plan for you. He has enabled you to do what He has called you to do each day. Sometimes it means fighting through the pain with thanksgiving. What can you do today to show love and serve others rather than focus on your pain?

Wednesday, 30 May 2012 Do I Have To Fast

Fasting is truly a secret source of power.

During the years that Jesus walked this earth, He devoted time to teaching His disciples the principles of the kingdom of God, principles that conflict with those of this world. In the Beatitudes, specifically in Matthew 6, Jesus provided the pattern by which each of us is to live as a child of God. That pattern addressed three specific duties of a Christian: giving, praying and fasting.

Jesus said, "When you give" and "When you pray" and "When you fast." He made it clear that fasting, like giving and praying, was a normal part of Christian life. As much attention should be given to fasting as is devoted to giving and to praying.

Solomon, when writing the books of wisdom for Israel, made the point that a cord, or rope, braided with three strands is not easily broken (see Eccl. 4:12). Likewise, when giving, praying and fasting are practiced together by a believer, they combine to create a type of threefold cord that is not easily broken.

In fact, as I'll show you in a moment, Jesus took it even further by saying, "'Nothing will be impossible'" (Matt. 17:20).

Could we be missing our greatest breakthroughs because we fail to fast? Remember the thirtyfold, sixtyfold and hundredfold return Jesus spoke of? (See Mark 4:8,20.)

Look at it this way: When you pray, you can release that thirtyfold return, but when both prayer and giving are part of your life, I believe that releases the sixtyfold blessing. But when all three--giving, praying and fasting--are part of your life, that hundredfold return can be released!

If that's the case, you have to wonder what blessings are not being released. What answers to prayer are not getting through? What bondages are not being broken because we fail to fast?

Matthew tells the story of a father who had a demon-possessed son. For years he watched helplessly while his son suffered with severe convulsions.

As the boy grew older, the attacks became so severe that he would often throw himself into an open fire or a trench of water. A suicidal spirit tormented him constantly, and his situation became life-threatening.

Having exhausted every attempt to cure the boy-even taking him to the disciples with no avail-the father almost gave up. Then he heard that Jesus was near.

Going to the Master, he cried, "'Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is an epileptic and suffers severely; for he often falls into the fire and often into the water. So I brought him to Your disciples, but they could not cure him'" (Matt. 17:15-16).

When the boy was brought to Jesus, He "rebuked the demon; and it came out of him; and the child was cured from that very hour" (v. 18).

But what made the difference? After all, Matthew 10:1 records that Jesus had already given the disciples power to cast out evil spirits and to heal every disease. So why couldn't the disciples cast out the demon and cure the boy?

That's what they wanted to know, too, so later that night, when they were alone with Jesus, they asked Him. Jesus replied, "'Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, "Move from here to there," and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you. However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting'" (Matt. 17:20-21).

Each time I've read that passage, I've focused on the statement "and nothing will be impossible for you." I think a lot of people stop right there, but Jesus didn't because He knew there was more-much more.

See, that one little word "however" is the connection-it's the key that unlocks the power in the statement "nothing will be impossible for you." Jesus told the disciples they needed faith, even faith as small as a tiny seed.

But that wasn't all. Long before this incident, the Holy Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness, where He spent 40 days and 40 nights and ate nothing. "'However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.'" For Jesus, casting out that stubborn demon wasn't impossible.

If Jesus could have accomplished all He came to do without fasting, then why did He fast? The Son of God knew there were supernatural things that could only be released through fasting. How much more should fasting be a common practice in our lives.

Sunday, 27 July 2008 Herb Analysis The Versatile Lemon Verbena

Lemon Verbena with two Lemons

Dear readers I am going to give you more information about an interesting herb with a very versatile application in magic. I am happy to present you LEMON VERBENA!

LEMON VERBENA OR LOUISA (Sci. Name: Aloysia Triphylla) has a refreshing lemony scent and it is very famous for its weight loss properties as it HELPS DIGESTION, BOOSTS YOUR METABOLISM AND HELPS TO BREAK DOWN CELLULITE. So if you are on a diet try to add a Lemon Verbena tea in your plan. However, I would like you to be cautious with its consumption and don't overdo it as the herb contains camphor (REMEMBER QUALITY OVER QUANTITY).Additional studies have shown that lemon verbena oil has an impact on our psychology as well due to its calming effects. It helps soothe the nerves and combats depression which is no wonder as its scent will make you feel alive and peaceful.

Now as promised, the herb has a versatile application in magic and I will explain its two main magical properties: PURIFICATION and BEAUTY. LEMON VERBENA is known and used in spells to break bad habits, purify the body and the mind, cleanse your space and remove negative energy or malevolent spells potentially due to its CAMPHOR CONTENT (you can't drink too much but you can always add it in your spells without any risk). I would like you to be aware that its purifying effects as a herb are MILD and you are best advised to use it with a mixture of purifying herbs, oils and resins such as myrrh, rue, sandalwood, gardenia, sage and frankincense (see other entries in our website as well) if the situation you are facing is really challenging. If you see that the problem persists, seek professional help. I will include a ritual for cleansing soon enough so stay tuned.

Regarding beauty LEMON VERBENA will assist you to bring your inner beauty out and will help others be more receptive to your amazing qualities. Now, I know this sounds very stereotypical and you may find it either boring or even worse you may think that "For someone to see my inner beauty s/he has to find me appealing and cute as hell first!" (or something along these lines J ) and I am glad you do because I would possibly feel the same. Because I am a witch that likes to talk with facts here are the benefits of using LEMON VERBENA: a) it can act as a hair tonic making your hair look clean and shiny, b) it will tone your body due to its detoxifying qualities, c) it will reduce puffiness and tighten your skin pores, d) it will scent your body with its clean and lemony fragrance and e) it can help you relax before a first date (and we all know how important that is!).

SO WHAT YOU CAN DO?

Place the dried leaves of LEMON VERBENA in a bath sachet (use a material that will help the water flow freely in the sachet but at the same time won't allow the leaves to come out) and place it underneath the bath tap. Take a shower or even better a bath and let LEMON VERBENA work its magic. Please take care after your bath not to be exposed to direct bright sunlight as there have been reported incidents (even with a low frequency rate) that show that the herb may be phototoxic. I will add a beauty ritual in the future, so you know what to do (stay tuned J).

Finally, I would like to summarise the pros and cons of LEMON VERBENA so that you are totally aware of how and when to use it. If you want to lose weight, have problems with your digestion, feeling nervous make A TEA WITH THE HERB. Because of its CAMPHOR CONTENT you need to be cautious and don't drink more than 1-2 cups daily and please try not to use it for an extensive period of time, instead, try intervals. In addition to that, camphor is also known for its "chastity qualities" so you may experience that your sex drive drops a bit as that potentially is one of the effects of the calming properties of the herb. If you want to control your sex drive (and honestly I don't know many people who want that) you know the trick now (drink some LEMON VERBENA tea). If you want to tone your hair and firm your body, take a bath as explained above or use a soap that contains LEMON VERBENA. Here comes the controversy, the herb may reduce your sex drive when you drink it, but its scent is known for its aphrodisiac qualities. So if you want to "grab that special attention", scent your body with its aroma or burn LEMON VERBENA OIL in an oil burner to "uplift the spirits" in a room J (you got the point!). Believe me it works wonders!
