The Road To Success

Success comes in two flavors, and one cancels the other.
So you have to choose between the two, because you cannot have both.
Perhaps you wonder what I am referring to, and what this choice is.
The story of Yahshua's temptation outlines the conditions for success for both flavors in a crystal clear way, and it illustrates why one form of success cancels the other.

When Yahshua went into the wilderness, He was tempted by the Adversary after forty days of fasting.

The Satan said: 'If you are YHWH's Son, then command the stones to become loaves of bread'.
It goes without saying that after forty days of fasting your Body craves food, so there was a strong pull on Yahshua's Soul to listen to the Adversary and turn the stones into loaves of bread.  
However, He also knew that if He would act on a suggestion by the Adversary and use His powers for Himself, His source of being would have shifted from the Creator to the Satan.
So He refused.

Then the Adversary took Him to the pinnacle of the temple and said: 'If you are the Son of YHWH, then throw yourself down, for it is written that YHWH will send His angels to protect you'.
Yahshua knew the Devil sought to seduce Him into putting YHWH to the test.

When do you test someone?
Is it not when you want to see if what someone said is really true?
Do not faith and trust in YHWH imply that you believe His words so that there is no need to put Him to the test to see if they are true?
Doesn't the test imply that there is a possibility that the words are not true, and does not this testify of doubt, the opposite of faith?

And so, Yahshua refused.
He knew His Father's words are true, and He refused to put Him to the test and turn Himself into an extension of the Satan's doubt and mistrust.

Then the Adversary said to Yahshua: 'I will give you all the kingdoms of this world and their glory, if you bow down and worship me'.
You cannot offer something you do not have.
So apparently the Satan OWNS all the kingdoms AND their glory, their splendor, the machinery which makes them great.
Of course Yahshua refused.

Because Yahshua refused He was denied a place in the Satan's structure upon the stage of this world.
Yahshua was despised and hated by those who were put in positions of authority by the Adversary.
Why?
Because in order to GET that position of authority they had to bow down and worship the Adversary.

And so, Yahshua was despised, treated as an ignoramus while His knowledge of spiritual matters and His wisdom exceeded that of everyone else on this planet.
His Goodness and His Light was enough reason for those professing to worship YHWH (yet who were puppets on the Satan's strings) to kill Him like a criminal, using lies and tricks to achieve their nefarious purpose just as their father the Adversary will use lies and tricks to achieve whatever he wants.
The Satan is Machiavellian in nature, and whatever is necessary to reach the goal is sanctified and deemed good, even though it is Evil, and whatever stands in the way to achieving the desired end result is deemed evil, even though it is Good.
So too in their deeds and their words many of the religious leaders of Yahshua's days showed themselves to be sons of the Devil, and that is exactly why they were put in their positions of authority and esteem in the Adversary's machinery.

Yahshua's disciples as well as many others of those who believe in Him awaited the same treatment as Yahshua within the machinery of the Satan.
They were despised, even persecuted and executed like common criminals.
Why?
Because they refused to bow down and worship the Adversary.
Instead they chose to be extensions of the Light, Yahshua, Who came into this Darkness as the Light destroying the Darkness by its presence.
That is why the Satan wanted to get rid of Him, that is why the Adversary seeks to get rid of everyone in whom the Light lives and shines.
Because it destroys the Darkness and exposes the works thereof.

So you want success, money, power and fame in this world?
In the story of Yahshua's temptation you find the terms and conditions outlined with crystal clarity.

You have to turn the stones to bread.
Meaning, you have to use your gifts and your power selfishly for your own good.
You have to confess the faith in yourself as numero uno and live for the gratification of the cravings of the Flesh wherein pride fueled by faith in Evil dwells.

You have to throw yourself from the temple.
Meaning, you have to abandon your trusting faith in YHWH.
Putting YHWH to the test means you share the Adversary's doubt and mistrust of YHWH so that you have to come up with proof.
Jumping from the temple means you jump away from faith and trust in YHWH only to find the Darkness of Death embrace you in its lying arms which promised you money and power.
You have to jump from Heaven into Sheol.

And the most important condition to achieve success: you have to worship the Satan.
You have to turn your back on YHWH and kiss the feet of the exploiter who annexed Earth as a mining colony for human Souls.
You want success, fame and fortune?
Then consent to this conditions, promote the Lie and deny Truth, because just as the Adversary owned all the kingdoms and their glory then, He owns the nations and their corporations and institutes today.
If you have what it takes and you are useful to the Satan you will find the world embracing you.

Yes, the Adversary has great supernatural powers.
He was able to transport Yahshua to the pinnacle of the temple, and he is able to flick the switches in the minds of people so that they come to like one thing and dislike another.
And if one of Yahshua's people appears on the scene, you can be sure the Adversary has his hands on the control switches.
Only, he is not the only one who controls the switches.
YHWH has the ultimate control, and He will pull some switches to present the Adversary with some unpleasant surprises in his pursuit of realizing the dream of a new version of mankind serving his ambitions in the 'paradise' of the New Order.

If you refuse and you remain faithful to YHWH, beware!
Because if the Satan persecuted Yahshua, ridiculed and belittled Him, attacking Him for no reason other than the presence of the Light in Yahshua, be sure that the Adversary will bar access to the ranks of authority in his system for you, he will deny you access to the road of success and he will seek to persecute you and if possible to eliminate you permanently.

Were it not for YHWH's intervention and His protection there would not be anyone of His children alive on Earth today.
YHWH protects, He DOES command His angels to make sure the Adversary cannot have his way with you, and He DOES have the power to make you successful in a world which is polarized against Him.

YHWH has ALL the power of Creation.
So it is not as if those who do not have success automatically are Yah's own, and those with success are sons and daughters of the Devil.
No, because you will find the Devil's seed also among the failures in this world, and you will find some of Yah's own in positions of power and authority.
But the more the people of a given nation embrace Evil and promote Sin, the greater the influence the forces of Evil have over that nation, and the harder it is for YHWH's own to find a space for themselves within the structure of the nation.

Aside from YHWH's interference where He paves the way for one of His own in the structure of the Adversary, the Adversary knows he has to make sure to preserve a certain balance to avoid an imbalance so great that it attracts its own destruction before the Satan can fulfill his plans.
Maintaining the balance means the Adversary has to allow for YHWH's children to be present within his institutions as an insurance policy against destruction.
YHWH will never destroy His own with the wicked.

But the rule of thumb for this world is that the admission ticket to the Satanic amusement park in this world is paid with your Soul, whether you become a 'rebellious' rockstar or a devout Churchian who sold his Soul to the denominational dogma.
Both are the same.
One races through the gates of Sheol by means of a rebellious image while the other falls into the Pit by means of an image of conformity, proclaiming the name of Jesus and the blood of the Lamb as magic formulas designed to be the entry ticket into paradise but ending up as nothing more than hollow phrases lacking substance due to a heart which is hell-bent, quite literally.

You want success on Earth?
Then bow down and worship the Satan, abandon your faith in YHWH and use your powers and gifts for the benefit of number One: yourself.

You want success in Heaven?
Then be humble stead of prideful, love YHWH and let this love strengthen your faith and trust in Him, and use your gifts to glorify YHWH and help your fellow man in need, worship YHWH with your gifts and make His will your will.

Success in Earthly ways means failure in Heaven, and success in Heavenly ways means failure on Earth.
Yes, even the ones YHWH put in positions of authority on Earth, the ones He provided with an abundance of money, will experience the Satan's wrath and the lashes of his whips, and they will ALWAYS fail to be 'one of the boys'.
Why?
Because they do not belong to the club which rules the Satanic structure of this world.

Striving for success on Earth leads you away from Heaven and locks you into the Lie of the dream.
Striving for success in Heaven leads you away from Earth and secures you into the Truth of Heaven.
Both are mutually exclusive, homes of two competing orders, the order of Truth vs. the order of the Lie, the order of Light vs. the order of Darkness.

The Earth stage is presented as the land of equal opportunity, and surely when we grow up we believe we can make it in the world, carve out our own niche and be successful at whatever we set out to do.
The Truth is that as long as the Satan rules this world and owns its nations and its institutions there is no equal opportunity for YHWH's children.
The more you shine and find your way back to your Father, the greater the Adversary will seek to isolate you from having any influence in his world.
It is not what we want to hear, but it is the Truth.

But do not despair, for we are not given up to the mercy of merciless predators.
No, our Father in Heaven has assigned Angels to watch over us and protect us wherever we go, providing us with the means that we need.
We are not left up to our own devices, so make sure you remember that when you observe how those who worship the Lie receive all the rewards and benefits, while those who abide in Truth are shunned and held in low esteem.
It is no coincidence that the rank of top entertainers is occupied by spineless sell-outs promoting lying garbage, holding up  a plate of vomit as a dish of delight.
And what to think of the public which is served the dressed up vomit, and rewards the ones who concocted the disk as they gobble up the sewerage they are fed?
Idiots serving the idiot kings and queens, and they get what they deserve.

What would you rather have: success in a dream, or success in real life?
Because that is what it comes down to.
This world is like a dream compared to the greater reality of Heaven.
I'd rather have a REAL treasure in Heaven rather than being wealthy in a passing dream.

However, that is not why I chose for YHWH.
I chose for Him because He chose me first, I love YHWH because He loved me first, and that is the reason why I chose for Him and His ways, and not for any prospect of success by conforming to the Lie.
And I am sure that everyone of you who belong to my true family from Heaven feels the same way, just as I am sure that everyone of you who belongs to the Adversary will feel I am the ultimate fool.
Well, the wisdom of this world is folly in YHWH's eyes, just as he wisdom of Heaven is deemed ludicrous in the eyes of this world.
So therefore those who are children of Heaven's wisdom become the fools of this world, just as those who are children of this Earth's wisdom become fools in the eyes of Heaven.
Once again it is the tale of two opposite orders breathing life in the principle of Dualism, where one is, and the other is not, the order of Give vs. the order of Get.

If you want to enjoy success in the empire of the Adversary you have to consent to adopting his ways.
However, giving your consent and signing up for success in the Satanic dream is no guarantee that the Adversary will give you your desired success in the way you want to.
He is like the wishmaster who may make your wishes come true in ways you did not foresee or desired.
He may grant you your wishes while hiding the fact that he will also send a demon your way to kill you.
The Adversary does not abide by YHWH's concept of justice and His distinction between Good and Evil, and he knows how to wriggle his way out of any commitment he makes.
Good is what serves the Satan's interest best, Evil is what opposes his whims.
Therefore you should not be surprised that your bargain with the Devil backfires and shows itself to be a scam, a Lie from the master Liar.

Perhaps you are one of Yah's own, and you have wondered why your Life did not unfold the way you wanted it to, why others seem to pass you by as you are left waiting.
I am here to remind you that for YHWH's children the odds are against them, not only that, but Dark Forces beyond our control work against us.

Don't let the seen and unseen obstruction be a yoke upon your Soul, but rather be glad that you do not belong here, that your home is in a blissful eternity.
Life here is but a passing dream and nothing lasts, but your home is part of the real Life where nothing passes.
So be glad that you are part of eternity and not locked into the coma of the Evil One.

The story of Yahshua's temptation outlines the conditions for success in this world, AND it shows you what it takes to take the road back Home, the road which leads us to our loving Father YHWH.

Want success in the Satanic dream?
1. Reject YHWH and worship the interest of the Fallen One, the Satan.
2. Do not trust and rely upon a mystical protection of a divine Creator.
Trust No One and serve yourself by serving the Evil One who makes it appear that he has your best interest at heart.
3. Let the desires of the Flesh lead you, and put your talent and energy in service of gratifying these desires.

Want success in the reality of Heaven?
1. Worship YHWH and serve His will, and reject the lying enticements of the Evil One.
2. Trust YHWH and believe in Him, and rely upon His guidance and protection in your Life.
Learn to trust with discernment and do not indulge in prideful selfishness, because your pride is the regent upon the throne of your Flesh receiving his marching orders from the Evil God who rules your Soul like a petty dictator.
3. DENY the desires of the Flesh, and put your talents and energy in service of gratifying YHWH's wishes by obeying Him and doing His will.

Our Body is the domain of our fallen self, a playground for Evil Forces, and our rebellious Death-centered pride resides in the Flesh.
By indulging in impulses produced by this Flesh, -impulses which can be generated and manipulated by Evil Forces-, you cater to Evil and your Soul merges with the Force of Evil.
YHWH seeks to draw you in the Spirit and through your Spirit into His Spirit, while the Evil One seeks to draw you in the Flesh and through your Flesh into the spirit of Death, Evil.

So now that you know what it takes to travel the road to success, which road will you take?
The road to temporary success, or the road to lasting success, the road of the dream or the road of reality, the road of the Lie or the road of Truth, the Devil's way or YHWH's way?
If you desire success on Earth more than anything else, then take the comfortable left road, if you choose for success in Heaven, then take the rocky right road.

But you cannot travel both roads, because both lead to opposite destinies, one on the left end, the other on the right end.
Although the road on the left looks comfortable and enticing, this smooth road of the dream ends in a nightmare, while the road on the right may look rocky with ups and downs, yet it ends in the reality of paradise.

The choice is yours.
