Want to know who wins the war of principalities? Well, it is not who or what is going to win, but who won. The war is over, it was over before it begun. Evil has already lost the war, for there was no war, but within the torment of evil itself. In choice, even evil can choose, as choice proves there are other facets of the whole than the one being lived. Choice exists for it is not dictated by anyone or anything. Choice is an allowance of another or others, or self to decide how they or you want to be. The only war that has ever been waged, is within. What happens outwardly is the result of that war waged within the principality of self, and all that is, or is not self. What is or isn’t self, is what one agrees or disagrees with, what one allows or disallows. Only when we need to justify our choice through the warring factions within ourselves, do the battles spill over into the physical, into other’s lives. Even then, when other’s join the war, they too are merely justifying their battles of proving their self-worth. When we think of warring principalities, we attribute those battles as being invisible to us, and of different realms and dimensions. Well, they are but they are not far away, but within you and others around you, or me and others around me. Each of us is fighting for us, these wars and rumors of wars waged between this us or that us.
There is no need to validate oneself through the inclusion of others into one’s personal wars. In that, we are the creators of wars, of death. I know everything in life says you are unworthy and invalid. I know this. You, though, must come to know that you are the most valid and worthy soul ever imagined. Never, has God had such a beautiful and wondrously infinite thought, than you.
Note: you must discern between you and ego, for ego craves validation, and then must parade it in front of the world. You, when you live the essence of you, needs do nothing but Be. No circus, parade of lights, no speeches, or grand titles, just you being you. Remember, more is less, and less is everything.
When others say, look there, they are bad and evil, know the foes they see, have never been somewhere other than within. Enlisting others to fight our battles is purely egoic, based in the fear of one’s own self doubt. No matter how many join someone’s war with self, the real war cannot be won from numbers of sympathetic participants. No, not even a million or more can validate what cannot be validated higher than perfection. There can be no illusion or delusion of self, just an unheralded steadfast knowingness, and our living the perfect essence of us, that infinite image of God. From that, wars are over before they begin, and rumors have no homes in which to live.
It is in your listening to the world, your societies and others who say, be this way or that, that you are not good enough - those rumors of wars to come, when you war within yourselves. Yes, you may be in bed with evil, but only when you see that bed in which you lie, will you change partners. When others tell you these things, be they correct or not, you will defend your worth, even though you cannot be more worthy. You should stop listening to others, except to know that more is possible, that you are seen and loved as God’s most precious. Also, if you have nothing good to say, say nothing. Remember, it is better to plant seeds than chastise weeds.
As for you and your wars, war if you so choose. Learn the boundaries of you, for in knowing the truths and lies of you, your value and worth will be known and then lived, and wars will be ended in the endings and beginnings of you.
