“Now that you understand what the kingdom of God is, your life is dedicated to God that it may be established, as the prophet Obadiah said, “And saviors shall come up on Mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be Yahveh’s.” Yes, you are called to be a savior to the world. The office of that newly begotten son that you are, is that of a savior, as was the office of the Christ of Nazareth. If you hold firmly to the realization that you are a prince (a son) of the Most High God, and do not let the thought that you are a poor, weak, carnal man, enter your mind for an instant, then will the strength of the Spirit produce in you a consciousness that you have access to the power of the will of the Infinite, and all power in earth and in heaven will be at your command.
Faithfully following this line, will bring you where the Christ was when he said, “All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.” Up to this point you go alone – alone with God. Your eye is kept single and centered upon the Father. Spiritually, you see and know no one but God; but you know that God has a great family of children like unto yourself, whom he is leading, the same as he is leading you.
But in your realizing that you are the son of God, and not a poor, weak, mortal man, you meet a grave danger, where thousands have fallen; that is, the ego, the self; the dark forces from the invisible side, will at once step in and cause you to feel that you are more than other men, and will cause you to begin to live in the ego, and there is no one thing that will destroy the working of the Spirit so quickly as this egoism. It is because of this, that God said by the prophet, “Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm.” And in this connection the Apostle Paul said: “For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves; but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.” (2 Corinthians 10:12)
