Get to Know Kabbalah Better to Achieve a Successful Life
Man is always on the lookout for the easiest path to greatness. Whether it's for career or business, we tends to go out of our way to take risks just to improve our current social standing. We might not realize it, but we tend to look to spiritual methods to satisfy our cravings for success - and one of the few religions that offer a quick and surefire path to greatness is Kabbalah.
The Inner Truth About Kabbalah
Many would say that Kabbalah is just like any other esoteric religion practiced many in modern society. In truth, Kabbalah offers the truth of the world that dates back since ancient times in the Middle East.
Mostly practiced by the Orthodox Jews, Kabbalistic teachings believe that the world was created by the one true God. This divine being created both heaven and earth using the 10 virtues or commonly called as Sephirots.
According to many of the high priests and patriarchs that supervises this religion, man can easily achieve the path to greatness and success by integrating these virtues into their daily life -- not just on a need-to-know-need-to-do basis, but following its teachings that will serve as the foundation of all their actions and decision.
Kabbalah And Man
Aside from the positive energies that is promoted by Kabbalah to help man achieve the peak of their career, the religion also speaks of possible hindrances that can pull a man down from their individual path to greatness. In most cases, the negative energies that come from both man and their immediate surroundings have the capability to destroy the balance in our life that will hinder us from getting what we want.
It is true that these negative energies pose much of a threat since we usually don't know what form they take or when they will shower you with their unwholesome influence. One such manifestation of these negative vibrations is often depicted as bad luck -- such as the existence of the Evil Eye.
Protection From Negative Forces
Keep in mind, however, that there are protections that will stop the flow of negative energies from affecting your life. Many religions have prayers, meditation, visualization, and other practices that will help you protect you from the effects of negative energies and imbalance. Among all these, the most successful prevention is through the use of magical accessories called Lucky Eyes.
These are accessories or trinkets that have the symbol of an eye in the middle that was said to absorb any negative energy in the immediate surrounding. You can practically see a lot of rich folks and popular Hollywood superstars wear these for protection as most people would often dub them as fashion.

The Source of Every Good and Precious Gift
"They will gnaw their tongues in anguish but they will not repent."
This quotation from the Book of Revelation describes very accurately what is happening in our society today. The notion that this was once a Christian nation is misguided.
Even so, we once acknowledged the existence of God and respected His moral laws. We did not always keep them but we knew we were wrong when we did not. In Natural Theology that is the glue that binds together a society. Now it is coming apart. Secular atheism has convinced the people as a whole that if there is a God (and most likely there is not), He is wholly other and we do not need to be concerned.
The anti-God, anti-Bible, anti-morality trends have become so pronounced and oppressive that we are now under divine judgment. Fifty years ago we did not believe what is happening to us now could take place. But it is and it is only going to get worse because while many people know that something is very wrong, no one will acknowledge what it is.
We are close to an unprecedented outbreak of natural disasters, plagues of new diseases that we have no medicines to deal with, and moral and economic collapse. Soon our military will be second rate (or worse) and who knows what will happen then.
Repentance is the only solution but no one is talking about that and no one is interested. Thus the God we profess not to believe in has decided it is time for this civilization to go the way of history-and it will.

Dreams and Jesus
(Below is a poem that hopefully will inspire you about faith, Jesus, and the walks that we take in life. It enlightens us to have faith, and really believe what is true to our heart. If one believes in Eternal Life and their Lord Jesus, I believe that they can accomplish anything.)
-----------------------------------------------
Into the midst, lies a flame of untold glories....
Just breathe...
Just breathe, and the night will go away.
Into the fog, I hold out my hands.
"Come and touch me, I've been waiting...
See me, for there is a drought throughout the lands."
Just breathe, and he will hold me,
"Just breathe my child, and your faith will awaken."
I am afraid
I am forsaken,
A man tells me the story of a drought in the land...
Who will bring me water?
Who will bring me hope?
"Just breathe, and your questions will be answered."
And the man opens my closed eyes.
"My child, here is your land..."
My heart is restless.
My mind aches of confusion.
Who will bring me faith?
Who has brought on this resurrection?
Who will provide me water to my lands?
Again, I close my eyes,
and a strange man holds ot his hand.
"Just breathe and I will hold you.
Let your steps become mine and I will carry you.
For thou name is Jesus, and it is I who has brought on this resurrection.
I will bring you your water."
Pride Can Often Create Problems Religion
Have you ever talked to someone about their religious beliefs, only to find out that they are very stubborn, they only want to talk about their beliefs and do not want to listen to your opinion at all. I have met plenty of people that fall into this category and rarely do I run into someone with an open mind about their religious beliefs. These people often try to make you feel stupid and don't realize, that they are the ones who are actually ignorant.
Pride can often create problems in religion and only later when you see the truth can you really understand how stubborn you were. The problem with these people, is that once they find the truth, it's another lie and they seem to push these beliefs on to others. Often these people can be very aggressive and it almost seems like they need to make up for lost time, since they were wrong about their last religion.
Psalm 10:4 In his pride the wicked does not seek him; in all his thoughts there is no room for God.
It seems like pride has often got man into trouble and rarely gotten him out of it. Pride can often start wars but only after defeat or education can they be ended. While some people go around town shoving religion down your throat in the name of God, others are ignoring the information completely. The problems in religion resulting from someone's pride have created too many problems throughout history and need to be stopped. Turn your prideful thinking into a compassionate mind.
The next time you meet someone on the street or in a store and they look different or have different beliefs, humble yourself and be kind to them. Show a little compassion instead of pride. Maybe, just maybe you could even make friends with these people and learn something about their beliefs. Often you will find that their religious beliefs are not that much different than yours and this could get you thinking and rethinking about your religion.

Help from God
I want to share something from my Bible reading from the One Year Bible.
All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us. (2 Cor 1:3-4)
As Paul writes to us from his prison cell, he speaks about the help of God, which he calls comfort. Id like to call it Help from God. Let me share a few things about this help.
1. Its supernatural. Clearly it is not earthly, human, physical comfort he is speaking of. Its the comfort of God in spite of our uncomfortable circumstances.
2. Its constant. He comforts us in all our troubles... There is no situation so bad that God cant and wont help us.
3. Its purposeful. so that we can comfort others.
4. Its uplifting. We will be able to give
5. Its from God. the same comfort God has given us.
Be encouraged today, no matter what you are going through. Gods supernatural, constant, purposeful, uplifting help is available for you today. PRAISE HIM!
By the way. the One Year Bible is available online at www.oneyearbibleonline.org. If you like using the computer (and Im sure you do, since youre reading this), it makes Bible reading so easy. You can even choose from several translations. I usually use the NLT. Thats not the New Larrys Translation. Its the New Living Translation. : )
