"The educator must believe in the potential power of his pupil, and he must employ all his art in seeking to bring his pupil to experience this power." ~Alfred Adler

 Empowerment ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
John Davis

In my life I have been very fortunate to have many amazing experiences. I have literally watched the crippled stand, the blind see, the jobless receive careers, and hundreds more miraculous healings. I have had the opportunity to see these things because these people were able to shift their belief and alter their lives. I am truly blessed. One of the most powerful aspects of these healings for me personally is the leap of faith that must be taken for these people to achieve the healing.  

 

Each of the people spoken of here took the belief of health in the present moment and so they had miraculous life changes. As a healing facilitator, it is my job to believe that they can heal themselves. When I teach how to help people heal themselves, one of the most important tenets of the work is the facilitator's faith that the power is within the person. I believe that the only healing comes from within. It comes from within the person healing not the person facilitating.  

 

I firmly believe there is no hierarchy in humanity. No one person is better than another. Each person is creating their personal experience through the faith they put in each moment. Many are living very hard lives. They believe life is hard and so they are continually receiving the proof of their faith. Others seem to have the world handed to them on a platter. One of my dearest and oldest childhood friends told me once that he knew that things always worked out for him. The result of his faith was that things always worked out.

 

The hardest part each one of us has to overcome is our perception of the world and our belief that we are out of control. The true creators believe then perceive, not the other way around. If you wish to help another, then empower them to create a new direction. This is done through positive reinforcement not chastisement. When we point out fault we are in fact showing them they are failing, which supports the issue of poor creation and thwarts positive motion. Believe in them. Know the power is available within them to create, but also remember it is their choice to walk that path. Do not become invested in their change - just give positive intention and without expectation. This more than anything else will empower them. Also realize that sometimes the most loving thing you can do is be a consequence and not an enabler.  

 

If this work is something you are interested in keep an eye on our website for our next Healer Intensive Workshop, or create one in your area. Contact us at Info@johnofPeniel.com for further details.

Book Review: The Celestine Prophecy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Today I want to share a book that was a major influence at the start of my personal spiritual awakening. The Celestine Prophecy, by James Redfield, came to me in a very interesting way. My sister had told me about the book and told me I should read it but I promptly forgot the title. A few months later I had a spontaneous Kundalini rising followed the next night by an out of body experience. These two experiences jump started my spiritual search.

 

I found myself in a bookstore trying to remember what the title of the book was. I stood in the aisle called 'Religious Studies.'I was so new to the spiritual thing that I really had no clue that there was a 'New Age' section. As I stood there looking for the book, hoping the title would spark my memory, a thought popped into my head: "Turn around." I turned around and directly behind me was The Celestine Prophecy on the shelf. It was the only book turned out to face me. I recognized the title and purchased the book.

 

I was grateful for the format. The book is written as an adventure story that reveals ancient insights that we each potentially can experience to move on to another level of spiritual development. I devoured the book as each twisting turn lead me to another life realization. I can truly say this is the book that opened my clairvoyance. I began seeing energies and the interplay of energies, eventually, the skill lead to me witnessing even greater things.  

 

I could share more about the story but The Celestine Prophecy is a personal experience. Enjoy the ride with your mind open to possibility and step into a larger world," as Obi Wan Kenobi would say.

Peniel Action Steps
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The word 'Peniel' means, "The Face of God." I believe that each of us is expressing our creation in the image of God/Source. So we are each of Peniel. As you walk through your life for the next week, take the time to notice what images are being brought into your experience. Take the time to look at them and assess what each means to you personally. How do you feel about the things you are seeing in your illusion?  As the creator of your experience, each life perception is a reflection of your belief. This week, assess what you are believing and decide what you want to alter in your creation. In the next newsletter we will take the steps to shift your life.
