Power of the Spirit

Posted on Aug 7th, 2006 by John D : Dominant Muse John D
Spirit is essence - the essence of persons, places, things, and ideas and this essence reveals itself as muse (inspiring power) or anti-muse (destructive power). We are as powerful as the spirits we nurture. Spirit, in the form of positive energy, is, arguably, the most powerful weapon that we have. Spirits control the mind that dictates countenance and composure. Spirits control our psyche that actualizes our attitudes and emotions. Spirits make manifest our livelihood and productivity by providing us with the positive energy and mobility necessary to accomplish them. Our handy-work and our progress are the direct result of the activity of our sprits. We are more than systems, organs, tissues, and cells, known as man, but we are mystical beings with the power of the spirit.


Both muses and anti-muses are powerful, but the muses will prevail. Spirit is constant and universal and, like energy, it is only transformed from one form to another or transferred from one place to another. Spirits are omnipresent. The spirit, the essence of persons, places, things, and ideas surround us daily and they greet us. Spirits prepare us for the unseen and may share with us the previously unknown. Many spirits are divine. Muses acquire, maintain, and perpetuate inspiration by remaining connected to inspiration. We are as powerful as we are inspired. Muses are powerful.


We will see life more clearly once we attempt to perceive it through our spiritual eyes. We are a world of spirits - muses and anti-muses. The anti-muses are fighting and the muses are seeking peace. The concept is as old as night and day and good and bad; muses and anti-muses are among us. With spiritual powers to inspire or to destroy the inspiration of others, we must be aware of them. We must discern the muses from anti-muses in our lives. We must approach the anti-muse with sincere concern and seek to inspire the spirit. All muses are talented. Talented muse may become dominant muse. Dominant muse inspire the masses. God is the Ultimate Muse. Once we realize that we are more than flesh and bones, we will be more prepared to execute our power.

Being a human is a difficult calling. Containing both anti-muse and muse while holding the witness of both……….

Your prose reframed a conflict I recently had with a loved one. I'm thankful.

I'd just like to add my friend from “THE ILUSION OF GOD”  Consciousness is the Creator all creation exist in. The activity within Consciousness is the free flow of the Spirit manifesting as the whole, perfect, complete forms of the Creator's thoughts being expressed in the invisible reality of creation's existence, and appearing in visible forms as finalized thoughts of the moment.  Matter is an illusion of a mind which came to believe it was separated from the invisible reality of creation.  This is the lie believed by men, making them strangers to the reality of themselves by living within, and among the shadows of their own mind projected images of their interpreted thoughts received from their imagination, which constantly feed to them false word meanings, pictures, images of their imagination which their minds have projected.

Mankind, who lives  within and among false words, pictures, and images, and not by the Spirit manifested as the Creator's thoughts being expressed, cannot comprehend, therefore, cannot find evidence of existence beyond matter emanating from the Allness of Consciousness expressing Itself.  Mankind cannot comprehend it is an expressed instrument for the Creator's Voice to “call those things which are not as though they were”; making “the word…quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedge sword, piecring even the dividing asunder of  soul and spirit, and the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.”

At some point and time of living, whether in the visible or invisible, each individual must come to understand they stand naked within Consciousness.  ”THE ILUSION OF GOD”
