The Power of the I

THE POWER OF THE I

I AM THAT I AM

After Moses finished speaking with God, he asked him: "If they ask me "Who sent you?" what shall I answer?" And God said: "Tell them I AM sent you."

In Hebrew, I AM is one of the names of God.

This is why the word "I" is the most powerful word in any language.

In Truth, there is only One real I in the whole universe. And that I is God, Reality or Infinite Being.

God is at the center of every being.

But our real I or will is our deepest reality; it is even deeper than our subconscious.

This is why we must be very careful when we use the word "I".

Every time we speak the word "I", we are giving a command to our subconscious. And whatever we impress upon our subconscious is executed in our life.

For example, if, jokingly, we say "I always get in trouble," our subconscious will execute our command and we will encounter trouble in our life circumstances.

This is why affirmations work. But they will only work if we truly believe what we say because our deepest reality is the infinite power of God.

For example, saying " I am infinitely rich." is true because it is true that our real I or God is infinitely rich.

THERE IS ONLY ONE REAL "I"

If there is only one real "I" then whatever we are wishing for others we are wishing for ourselves.

This is how our subconscious interprets what we say of others.

For example, if we say: "I wish so and so woul fail.", our subconscious interprets it as "I wish I would fail." It will then create failure in our own life.

In contrast, if we say "I wish that so and so will become prosperous and wealthy in whatever he does," our subconscious will attract more abundance into our life.

This means that when we pray for others, we are also praying for our own self.

THERE ARE MANY FALSE "I"S

Once again we must distinguish between our real will and our egotistical desires.

Our real "I" is unique and real but our ego or false "I" is fragmented and false.

Our real "I" is founded on Truth and Love while our ego is based on lies and negativity.

Our real "I" is universal while our ego is personal.

Our real "I" considers others as its own self while our ego affirms itself by negating and resisting others.

Our real "I" has real power while our ego is powerless.

Our real "I" is silent while our ego makes a lot of noise.

Our real "I" does very little and accomplishes everything while our ego does many things but accomplishes nothing. Our ego only creates more problems.

Our real "I" is creative while our ego is competitive.

THE POWER OF REAL AFFIRMATIONS

We can understand now why affirmations work for some people and not for others.

For an affirmation to work or have power it must come from our real "I." In other words, we must understand it and really believe it.

If our ego says "I am wealthy!", our real "I" knows that it is not true and our subconscious will not execute the command. However, if we say it from our deepest self or our real "I", our subconscious will obey and create abundance in our life.

If we want affirmations to work, we must become wise, useful and loving. This is how we become our real "I."

When we reach our real "I", we attain the certainty of faith and every affirmation we make becomes a reality.
