CHAPTER THREE
AMBITION MOTIVATED STARDOM
“And the devil said unto him, all this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.” Luke 4:6
The eating of the seed terminated the flow of the blessing. The blessing was the life transmitted by the light infused into the source via the word of God.
The word of God generated light that infuses life into the created. This life was the blessing that turned seeds into fruits. Through labour fruits can be multiplied.
The termination of the blessing brought an untimely end to vision. Man could no longer see the abundance all around him, all he saw was nakedness. He now feared the voice of God and his intellect had been corrupted.
The absence of vision gave birth to greed motivated ambition. Satan was in full control. Like I earlier stated, man’s body was made from the earth – dust. The dust was the source and sustenance of man’s body and all that made up the body.
Man created is a spirit, he has a soul and both the created man and his soul live in a body. “And the word became flesh and dwelt amongst men” John1:14
That body has its source and sustenance in the earth. The spirit has its source and sustenance in God, his word or light. The soul is a rather complex part of man whose source and sustenance is in both God and the earth.
Man’s informed choice dictated the source and sustaining power of the soul. The soul comprises of the intellect, will and the emotions. The soul also has the conscious and the subconscious mind. The human mind functions in two ways.
· Memory – to replay the past.
· Imagination – to pre - plays the future.
The soul is the seat of creativity that leads ultimately to stardom. At the fall, everything was reduced to dust.
“In the sweat of thy face shall thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it was thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.” Genesis 3:19
Man was completely reduced to dust. To man, human instinct had become spirituality.
“Upon thy belly shall you go, and dust shall you eat all the days of thy life:” Genesis 3:14
Satan was empowered to eat dust. Remember that man had been reduced to dust. Man automatically became food for Satan. This authenticated the devil’s control over humanity. This made him ruler of the earth. He had the keys of life on earth and death.
