We All Hear Voices

We ALL Hear Voices--- Don’t We????

Know this:

“The mind once enlightened cannot again become dark.”

-Thomas Paine

I have become finely attuned to a pattern in what I hear many people make comments about in everyday conversations.  I hear what they say, and repeat it to them because they don’t realize consciously what is actually going on in their heads. I help clients recognize it constantly.   I even see it on TV- most recently, from celebrity Taylor Swift being interviewed by Katie Couric a couple of days ago.  We ALL experience it and no one in any station of life is immune to the influences of these voices.  I frequently find many folks who are simply struggling and striving to move forward with accomplishing their personal goals in life only to allow the “voices” convince them otherwise.

Let me explain what is happening in ALL of our lives.  Many think because we don’t live in Afghanistan or the Middle East or any war torn country presently, that we don’t have to worry about being in a battle or any war of any kind. That life is “peaceful” here in my land.  How wrong they are!  There is a battlefield we all fight on-- almost on a daily basis—and that particular battlefield takes place in the territory of every person’s mind.  This battlefield is always part of Life on Earth.

I have learned to recognize that there are only 3 voices on that battlefield. Pay close attention here as you will very quickly recognize them in your own life and may realize that you’ve encountered one of them just today!

The first voice on the battlefield is the voice of God- AKA Your higher power, or anyone associated with God’s Love. This includes beings like the Holy Ghost, your Spirit Guides, your ancestors who have passed on, and guardian angels or those Spirits of Light who have been assigned to you or have your BEST interests at heart.  Their energy is very distinct. It is a coming from the outward to the center point of God/Love Energy.  It always manifests as a building, edifying, guiding, sort of energy. These voices are focused on our protection , keeping us from going down  the wrong path for us-- basically to come to the Love of God, oneself, or toward anything full of Love- which is also obviously full of light and truth.  These people are very separate from us- in that they actually ARE another being-- Not us, and they talk to us like all others talk to us- they call us “You!” You are 2 separate people having a CONVERSATION.  Sometimes, they don’t use the word You” in their sentence , but everything they say is to help us on a path of progression, be our best selves, work harder to be a better citizen or being of Light in some way.  They may say things that help us avoid immediate or future danger, be in the right place at the right time to intersect with what we’re looking for at the moment. They whisper advice on how to help us heal our broken relationship,  resolve a problem,  or what I love most—they make us aware of a more wise choice than we could have thought up on our own. They tell us what is really happening that we can’t see any reason to our life, etc.  Often I find the words spoken personally to me will change as I am moving forward in life. If you hear something in 3’s or repeated 3 times—PAY CLOSE ATTENTION as they cannot try any more than this to get our immediate attention on some matter.

The second voice on the battlefield is OUR voice. We ALWAYS address ourselves as Ï”. We say to ourselves many times a day for example: ” I should get up”, I know I should eat something healthier for breakfast”, “ I am hungry”,  “I am tired”,  “I “really hate traffic”, ”I think I want to call my best friend to catch up on her life today”-“ I feel like taking a vacation,” “I want to buy that Mp3”. … etc.   We make many decisions every day and probably speak> 10,000 words  just to ourselves each day.

The third voice on the battlefield is the voice of Satan-- AKA the Adversary, Old Scratch, the Devil,  and many other names he’s been given.  This is also the voice of all his helpers who speak to us as proxy for him as well.  Their energy is exactly the opposite of God’s- it is all about DESTRUCTON- taking everything that is in the center, or united, and moving it outward, For example, breaking up marriages,  making you doubt yourself, making  you doubt there is a God, doubt you’ll get the job you really want,  or ever  get a date with the person you’d really like to have notice you.  They get you not even try- just give up. They use the word “You” much more than the light talkers I’ve noticed.  You will hear them say things like: “You’ll never get over this- you’ve had this problem all your life and it will never go away!”  “There is NO solution to your problem- just give up trying to find it. “  “Forget about it- it will never happen.” “Your family is cursed with this.”  “You don’t have what it takes to do that so just give up now. You set your goals too high- no one can ever accomplish that!” “Just face it, you’re depressed.”  “You are a terrible Mother- or Father, OR worker”,  “No one will ever find out you did it, so just do it- do it now!” “You know you want it- just take it!” “No one likes you, everyone bullies you so you might as well just take your life now- life is NOT worth living! This world sucks!”…..etc. They can emphasize words with a certain tone just like our friends or family do when they talk to us. Sometimes- if you’re really good, you can even distinguish the same voice and identify it- just like you’d know your spouse’s voice, or your mother’s voice. It will always sound exactly the same to you.

  Can you see how this energy is so much the OTHER extreme from God’s energy??   One thing I need to state  is that the dark side has a line drawn between you and them, in that they CANNOT take your life!!  But I guarantee they are so good at finding our weak point  through years of conversation, that they get SO good at finding multiple effective words or ways  to suggest we take our own life and check our own selves out of this plane of existence so that they don’t ever have to do it—because they can’t!   When you’re not here anymore, you cannot come back or lend your unique gifts and abilities to the Earth anymore.  With you out of the picture,  they are on to the next poor soul to torture, tempt and  hopefully terminate, in the same exact way they accomplished getting you to check out. They dwell on getting us to even entertain the idea of committing suicide-- or a homicide for that matter.  That is their ultimate goal- to make us miserable, to separate us from all sources and persons of love, and influence us to choose misery--just like them.  Their misery is constant war, contention, deceit, death, rage and hopelessness and loneliness.  What I find most interesting in attuning to exactly what the dark side says, is that in every case, if you can turn the sentence around, the exact opposite is always true!!!--- and they know it!!  They also know that you don’t know what lies ahead for certain.  Their goal in this battle is to convince us to fall short of our potential- no matter what is said.  So, IF you can learn to discern their words as I have, AND realize the opposite fact is true, you can have a glimpse of a true north direction in your life. They actually let the cat out of the bag so to speak.  I believe, they sometimes are privy to knowing who we are and what we are capable of –more so, or in advance of us recognizing our own potential.

Our biggest problem is that most of us get confused!!!  So confused that we think we are the only ones participating in a huge endless conversation with ourselves. We then transpose all the dark side negative “You” statements into Ï” statements and write them into our belief window—a window through which we see the entire world on a daily basis. Then we actually speak them out loud to others.

  I hear and pick up on these statements all the time. Thus my reason for sharing this blog- to teach you what I have learned over many years of quiet observation.

The power in overcoming these voices is:

  #1 to learn to be aware of them!!  You cannot help but hear them.   We all have spiritual ears and we “hear” whispers from the unseen realms around us.  It is so much like the old butter commercials I saw as a child-- where the angel sits on one shoulder whispering in one ear, while the devil sits on the other shoulder whispering the opposite in the other ear.  We end up making a decision based on what we hear and many times, we transpose into a negative statement into some very powerful misbeliefs about ourselves.

#2 Make a conscious choice- not a subconscious one, to recognize who has your best interests at heart and let your heart lead you with courage to follow through with a wise choice- the best one you can make for yourself at this time in your life.

For those of you who live with regrets over voices you followed in your past, you must realize that you did the best with what you knew back then. Don’t judge your younger self with the wisdom and experience you have today.  Now you know different. When you know better you do better.

DO BETTER! Dress yourself in the Armor of God! -- Every single day!  Don’t ever take that armor off!  That is where the joy of defeat is found.
