Hey y'all💓 today's video is one you've been waiting for for a looong time and I'm finally posting it. It's a little different from what I normally post on my channel, but I really wanted to to bring awareness to what the law of attraction is truly rooted in and how deceiving it can be. In this video, I go into what the law of attraction and new age movement is as well as my own personal experience and why I no longer practice it. Please don't take this video the wrong way! I'm a bit nervous to post because I know this topic is a bit controversial, but I felt called to talk about the truth. Love you all and I hope you enjoy :)

I also know that not everyone shares my beliefs, and not everyone is a Christian, but please know that there is no judgement in my heart! A lot of us have different beliefs and that’s ok, but I wanted to share my perspective and how it connects to my own faith. I believe the Bible is the word of God and should be taken seriously. Please don’t get the wrong idea, I promise I’m not trying to hate on anyone at all!

@@lillianbrusseau500 that sounds like torture. What if your desire is to have children. Isn’t that his purpose for us, he said to ask him and he will give it to you. We shall live life in abundance, Jesus said. I dropped Christianity and decided to follow Jesus instead and in fact he was against the religion and the church. They have managed to manipulate what you in fact read in the Bible. If Jesus had his 12 disciples then why is there only 4 gospel books that we get to read. Who made that choice? The church! It’s a manipulation. Jesus was a mystic, he had oneness with God and so do we. God is in us and we have the power that he gave us to do these things. Jesus said to believe it is done and that’s it. Once I started asking myself these questions and paying attention to how Jesus lived, showing love and helping others, being thankful for everything and living a sinless life, I began to see the beauty in life. We become happy. He is with us at all times and around us in nature. He is energy/an intelligent force/spirit that is everywhere. Jesus knew that! We have the power in our minds to heal ourselves and create our reality. Our biggest enemy is our mind and that’s what we must control. We don’t play God, we leave it in his hands, believe he heard our prayers and stay happy waiting for it to come, that is faith my friend!

@ryham Год назад

you might have a misconception of the what the law of attraction is.. i think what you’re trying to convey is that you don’t want to intentionally serve the Ego..which results to the surrender to God. yet, surrendering to God is still attracting that very thing.. wether u repel or embrace the law of attraction, the law is still at work. it’s the only way our free will can have momentum to create the life our hearts desire. that’s why no one can runaway from it. its embedded in the fabric of creation.

Salaam sister Sophia. Just wanted to drop some appreciation to you for this video. There does not seem to be much content on RU-vid in any way addressing the New Age practices like manifesting from any religious perspective and/or looking critically at the practice. As your muslim brother a lot of what you said resonated with things I have observed, the idea of it being like a prayer to oneself or a prayer without God. I liked your emphasis on focusing on God’s will and surrendering to God, which is the definition of the word Islam. God bless! 😊

I'm a Muslim and i agree with it. I've lived 2 years of my life in that shit but didn't know it was witchcraft. I hope more religious people talk about that. Thank you so much! You were the one who made me realize it's witchcraft. I know the word in Arabic and know it's Haram but my silly mind never made the connection 😂 or perhaps i was so blinded by my desires that i stopped believing in my religion and started worshipping this or that method making it my idol. Note that my desires were against my religion and that was the first ever test i was put in from Allah. I was to choose between my religion and God (which I've had a strong connection to him and loved him so much) or my earthly desires by witchcraft. And poor me chose witchcraft over God. Still didn't get them and I also failed the test horribly but I was a teen back then, i was only 18 back then. One thing to add to even make it worse, if my desired were permissible i would've gone 100% to God and prayed to make them mine through him. But at the first road cross i walked away from God. I think he did this to show that i wasn't a true believer as i thought i was. Thank you so much for your video, we're sisters in faith as we're both heavenly Abrahamic religions 🙏💞

You did both of those in a graceful and loving way and it’s so awesome how Jesus is using this part of your story to help others.💗 Something you said at the end reminded me of Jeremiah 20:9, where Jeremiah says “If I say, “I will not mention him, or speak any more in his name,” there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I am weary with holding it in, and I cannot.” Also I’m reading screw tape letters rn and wow...

I really appreciated this video. I was recently very hurt by the "new age culture," feeling gaslit and manipulated by it for not being "healed" enough (I have a lot of trauma and PTSD), and letting it lead me into some delusional thought-spirals, and similar to your experience, feeling extremely anxious about my own thoughts "attracting" bad things to myself. So, even though I'm not particularly religious myself and we don't have identical perspectives, it's refreshing to see people rejecting this new "culture" and calling out how it can harm us without us even realising it. And since so many of the more popular new age believers will use the Bible and Christ to gain the trust of their Christian followers who are tempted by LOA and "manifestation," I think having religious Christian perspectives like yours to challenge it is very important ♡

This is my first time of hearing about the man and his book. From the introduction I knew it was not from God even though it quoted Bible verses, then I skipped and read on and I saw more lies. Those scriptures quoted works if only a man sets his gaze upon the Lord Jesus Christ who died and gave himself for us. We celebrate him and he does it. We set our gaze on the Lord, we meditate on the Lord, we delight ourselves in him and he grants our hearts desires, actually when you you meditate on the Lord, forgetting your needs, not minding them our needs are met, he said first seek the kingdom of God and his righteousness and every other thing will be added to us. Matthew 6:24-34 [24]“No one can be a slave of two masters; he will hate one and love the other; he will be loyal to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money. [25]“This is why I tell you not to be worried about the food and drink you need in order to stay alive, or about clothes for your body. After all, isn't life worth more than food? And isn't the body worth more than clothes? [26]Look at the birds: they do not sow seeds, gather a harvest and put it in barns; yet your Father in heaven takes care of them! Aren't you worth much more than birds? [27]Can any of you live a bit longer by worrying about it? [28]“And why worry about clothes? Look how the wild flowers grow: they do not work or make clothes for themselves. [29]But I tell you that not even King Solomon with all his wealth had clothes as beautiful as one of these flowers. [30]It is God who clothes the wild grass - grass that is here today and gone tomorrow, burnt up in the oven. Won't he be all the more sure to clothe you? How little faith you have! [31]“So do not start worrying: ‘Where will my food come from? or my drink? or my clothes?’ [32](These are the things the pagans are always concerned about.) Your Father in heaven knows that you need all these things. [33]Instead, be concerned above everything else with the Kingdom of God and with what he requires of you, and he will provide you with all these other things. [34]So do not worry about tomorrow; it will have enough worries of its own. There is no need to add to the troubles each day brings.

When I heard that "manifestation" is on trend these days i honestly felt good about it (besides of course the things stated on the video that was not of the Bible). For me, I've been manifesting goodness through God's power and at hindsight I thought that other people's way of manifestation is just a way for them to discover God in their own lense. I'm glad that manifesting helps them find peace and brings joy to them day to day, but I hope that one day they will be able to accept that God is the name of the universe they cling to, and that He could provide them with so much more love and assurance than our own minds and intentions are able to grasp.

Jesus would happily approve the law of attraction in it's true nature. Not for greed and selfishness, which most believe it's about. It's the people pushing it and using it for those reasons that gives it a bad name.

@hedyeherfani5729 2 года назад

affirming is not self focused. we are creations of god and putting ourselves on a pedestal means we are honoring the fact that we are a reflection of him. we are honoring the fact that we have been created by god to do amazing things. we are honoring what god put so much of his time into creating.god gave us the ability to manifest for a reason, that's why he gave prayer. prayer is a form of manifestation.

@LD-jv3ig Год назад

@celp88 Год назад

This is deeply unbiblical. Jesus said to deny yourself, take up your cross and follow Him. The first will be last and the last will be first. You do not have a Godly understanding of yourself and how sinful you are if you think you are worthy of being put on a pedestal. The only reason we have ANY value is because of the imago dei and who we are in Christ if we are truly saved. Study the Bible.

I'm a Christian and have recently been researching the concept of vision boards and manifestations this past month. I've known about them for decades, but never took them seriously. Through my research, I've gotten a lot of mixed messages on the subject. I'm very grateful to all of the scriptures provided in this video as well as the non judgmental deliverance of the message. ♥ It's always good to keep a good discernment about ANYTHING you choose to partake in life. You most certainly can't SERVE two masters, but I don't want to let the devil TAKE OVER what God ORIGINALLY made to be beautiful and fruitful. Take the RAINBOW for example. I'm not going to let others' sinful representations of the rainbow get in the way of me enjoying the true beauty of the ACTUAL rainbow and what God ORIGINALLY designed it to represent. 😘 I'm most certainly not enabling or serving the LGBTQ community simply because I love the rainbow. I won't let them take away my love from God's promises. 🌈♥ I am seeing Manifestations as the same type of thing. You NEED to be careful with where you're getting your empowerment FROM, for sure! Also, give credit to the CREATOR instead of the CREATION (they often call the "universe"). I have found that this topic is not something to take lightly whatsoever. It's fascinating to say the least.

Thank you. I have never been a fully devoted Christian, even most of my life. I had prayed or complained to God/Jesus. I have suffered years with physical health issues and and anxiety. Last year I saw my mom died, and my older sister, just turned her back on me. Lately I stumbled across Neville Goddard, and in the beginning it felt good and self empowering. The more I good sucked in, the more anxious and disconnected I feel. Especially when I hear, that we can change the past, by do something called revision, some even claims, that it can bring our deceased loves ones back. Something like this freaking me out. Even I during the years, have lost all my closest relatives, except my son, and even I miss them, and I suffering a lot. Never ever do I want to change the outcome. It has shaped the man I am today, and with the empathy I also feel towards others. Still I hope Jesus Christ, to heal and ease my suffering and pain. Sorry for my English In the name of Jesus Amen

This is so interesting to me and I really appreciate you sharing your story. It's interesting that your experience was "If something went wrong I felt like it was my fault" when practicing LOA because of your thoughts. For me, I've had those same anxieties but in relation to my prayer life. "Someone got hurt. Someone didn't heal. Nothing changed, so my faith must not be strong enough. I must not be praying hard enough. I must not believe enough." So same anxieties, but stemming from two different and (from your assertion here) opposing practices. For me, there is a super fine line between the magical and the miraculous. For example: tarot is inherently evil, even as a reflection practice - a certain card showing up at a specific time that causes me to reflect is bad. But when a specific song comes on the radio at "just the right time" it's God speaking. Or how grounding in crystals is inherently nonsensical but rosaries, prayer beads, and prayer blankets - mundane items imbued with some kind of power because of prayer - is from the Holy Spirit. I was raised Christian and I consider myself a Christ follower, but you said yourself that most people were using LOA for kindness, and some for bad. I think you can say the same of any practice. Scripture has been used to justify the slaughter and oppression of millions as well as free millions of others. In my experience, it's less about the practice itself and more about the person practicing it. But again, thank you for sharing your story! I'm on mine and I'm glad to have your perspective on this topic.
