Everyone should be aware that they possess certain powers given to them by nature and with these powers they are able to shape their future. The Lords of destiny say: ‘Do what you want, but be careful, everything you do has consequences. If you wish for money, success, power, you can obtain these, but be aware they do not last long, and they also tie you down and you will be obliged to become enslaved by all the beings who have money, success, and power.' Jesus said: ‘… the ruler of this world is coming. He has no power over me …' This means that the ruler of this world has riches and glory, and he distributes them to those who place themselves in his service. Jesus had nothing in common with him because he had nothing of his, he was free. This passage in the Gospels is very profound. Indeed, if you focus on material acquisitions you make contact with the ruler of this world, because they are at his disposal and he distributes them. So, directly or indirectly, you ask him for them. He may give them to you, but in exchange you will have to give him the most precious thing you possess: your freedom. So, be careful!
