GOSPEL OF PEACE: Good Health & Wellness:
Our initial goal with freeform blogging is to ultimately have a platform where you can document the process of your workshop experience. the amount of effort you put forth in time spent with the Membership, will reflect itself in the content of your blog. Affiliate-members of this Fasting-workshop are likewise, intercessors of the workshop promoting good health & wellness, each in their own manner or fashion.
It's the dedication of our own works that become the evidence of things we speak of or blog about. & THIS is what we strive for with every member that seeks to join the Freeform Bloggers Team; Content that is both CREDIBLE & VALUABLE are what make a blog great. & A great blog, is what establishes our team to open new doors of greater opportunities.
For example, this blog specifically "Taming the Seas", is my personal studies & progression of a now 2 year Semen Retention Journey. My goal isn't to force a retention lifestyle on anyone with this content. But rather as a Freeform Character Development (self-guide), This blog will also tie into the guided process of how you can also become an Intercessor of Good Health & Wellness, in your own way!
At that time Merdachbaladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah: for he had heard that he had been sick, and was recovered. And Hezekiah was glad of them, and shewed them the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah shewed them not. Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah answered, All that is in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewed them.
-ISAIAH 39:1-4
PREPARE YE THE WAY (For a Season):
Then said Isaiah to Hezikiah, Hear the word of the Lord of hosts: Behold, the days come, that all that is in thine house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store until this day, shall be carried to Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the Lord. And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon. Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the Lord which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, for there shall be peace and truth in my days.
- ISAIAH 39:5-8
In the same way that we find John the baptist of the New Testament preparing a way for the coming of the Lord, we have the Prophet Isaiah, who also foreseen what would become of the house of Hezikiah. He foreseen even that his sons would become eunuchs in another palace, in which Hezekiah the king found to be a good word of peace & truth in the Lord. & so in mind of this coming season, we find Isaiah the prophet with a word for the people, "prepare ye the way of the Lord".
No matter what it is that we strive to accomplish in labour of our faith, the athletics of an interceeding spirit is what we must have with us in the pursuit of our goals, purpose(s), or callings in the spirit. Depending on what & where spirit is calling us to perform, the becoming process toward these things can look completely different for me than it would for somebody else. In my case for example, it so happens that spirit led me in the way of semen retention.
Like the water baptism we find in the New Testament, which represents a process of remission for our sins, I eventually embraced semen retention as a practice with the objective of establishing a healthier conscience in taking on my own journey with spirit. Being only two years into my journey is a big deal for me personally, & the results are phenomenally life changing (especially if you ever decide to go "monk-mode"). It truly develops within you a principle of "mind-over-matter" & a focused clarity I'd otherwise not obtain as easily. But even with this, retention doesn't always come as an easy task for all of us. Especially not when applied to the stress & pressures of every day life. I'm definitely someone who has had a lot of ups & downs in the process of my personal journey. Clearly I still have a lot to learn about semen retention, especially as it pertains to the best methods of balancing out your own sexual energy. But these things are also completely natural & nothing that should be demonized. It reminds me a lot of the New Testament concerning the eunuch lifestyle.
In the process of aligning with our spiritual nature & calling, it requires that supplications to be made. That one must bring the body into subjection under certain Divine principles to assist you in your progression. This is what semen retention has become for me, as an affirmation of self-love & the ability to be a healing guide or even a blessing toward those around me who will receive it as such.
However, keep in mind, that semen retention is not the only contribution to be had toward good health & wellness. Affiliate-members of this PBB:Fasting-Workshop likewise take on the duty of assisting newer members in getting started easily on their journey toward good health & wellness in THEIR OWN WAY, while also being able to earn a commission in the process. This workshop also gives Affiliate-members the opportunity of better success at selling their own services or products as a result of having a network of members under them. So with this, we can see how helping our fellow members to be successful in this workshop essentially contributes to our own success!
MINISTRY BASIS OF RECONCILE:
Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned: for she hath received of the Lord's hand double for all her sins. The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
-ISAIAH 40:2-3
Reconciliation, as a Basis of Ministry, is an objective of restoring friendly relations, as an extension of friendship. It can also be a spiritual practice of making one view or beleif compatible with the view or beleif of another. It's what we should ultimately strive to achieve with Divine favor not only with this Fasting-Workshop, but also in our spiritual affairs & the way we work with others in general.
In many ways, this is what semen retention has become for me. I've manage to nearly turn my whole life around for the better with simply using retention to shift my mindset to be more than my circumstance & more goal driven. As a basis of ministry, I'd like for my own experience to be able to help somebody else who may be looking to get into the practice of semen retention. Or even seeking out effective remedies to the struggles that come with the journey.
As it pertains to our Fasting-workshop, a "Basis of Ministry" will be found for every Member in the recordings of their vision journaling, regardless of what their methods of good health & wellness may consist of. It is both a goal & the foundation of our faith, that may we transform confessions into testimony. This is the glory of any journey with spirit. I provide an invitation exclusively for my PBB:Members here in the third step of this PBB: Membership! Let me help you to further PERFECT YOUR VISION JOURNALING by joining my "Freeform Bloggers Team"!
SEARCHING OUT THE BACKSLIDING CAUSES:
Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain:
And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.
-Isaiah 40:4-5
When we think of what it means to fast, from a tradition sense, usually what comes to mind would be something closely aligned with what we find in Isaiah 58:5. This being a day for a man to "afflict his soul, & "bow down his head". This form of fasting is what we would consider to be "Subjective fasting". Which is all about self-alignment with the principle whereby we subject ourselves to for our own development toward a goal or objective. It's what essentially becomes a path of least resistance for us toward our goals or objectives.
For example, in order to truly understand semen retention as a humility process, we would have to understand the general concept of a ?remission mindset?. This is something we best learn with experience, through abstaining practices such as fasting. If you?re wondering what a remission mindset is, it?s simply the process of transforming your mind by way of spiritual principles. So for me, the practice of semen retention, was that process of transforming my sexual energy into a passion for creative pursuit in my own spirit nature/journey. This fasting-workshop, in part, is a direct result of my own success with semen retention. Today, my next objective in practicing semen retention is learning to truly balance out my sexual energy, without any fluctuating. & so I inherently know that whatever solution I find as a remedy will be the result of a remission mindset based on the principles thereof.
On the other hand, for any affiliate-members of this workshop looking to make money while making a difference, we re-direct our focus toward a more effective kind of fasting; "Objective fasting".
HEALING THE INNER BREACH:
Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
-Isaiah 40:28-31
With Objective Fasting, it becomes a fast in service of others being in need, whereas the Subjective fast aims toward our own Divine alignment with these later things. Both forms of fasting are our ultimate goals with this workshop. That in doing these things it becomes a foundation of good health & wellness of spirit, as well as solid ground in midst of potential crisis.
For example, I personally feel that we live in a society that no longer holds sexual energy or practices as a sacred exchange. It's no longer based on terms of endearment so much as it is based on convenience of self-pleasure or gratification. As a result of these things, sex has become more of a scam than it is sacred. It should come with no surprise to find so many of our relationships failing when this is the standard at which we hold for our sexual affairs collectively. I've found this pattern even within my own experience, that relationships are based soley off of sexual attraction first. These same relations crumble once the infatuation with one another is exhausted, because the foundation was never established with principles in place. & so what does this have to do with semen retention? I truly beleive that when we embrace this as a practice & apply it to our lives, it becomes intercession made for healthier relations!
Something I noticed with semen retention, is its ability to truly purify your desires. Once we conquer the desires of our own sexual appetite, what remains is a certain scent of attraction that surpasses the basis of ones own sexual nature. The ability to recognize these things for yourself truly changes your views on sexual exchange, even regardless of if you're still sexually active or not. These are the kind of principles that possess the potential to heal relationships that are truly dedicated to healing that breach in spirit! This even pertains to those of us who find ourselves recovering from a bad relationship. You ever loved someone so much, that you tried to understand them while they were hurting you? I've been both the victimizer & a re-occurring victim of this very thing. It's completely acceptable & even NECESSARY that we admit & acknowledge the pain that comes with trying to manage our way through these kind of situations. Often times we underestimate the stronghold of our own mental/emotional traumas, & how these things can literally consume us if we allow it. This is a potential crisis that's constantly being overlooked.
My own life experiences are a witness to these things very vividly. However what I found, & what others may also find, is semen retention to be somewhat of a therapeutic season. As a recovery process for our own emotional well-being! What's even better, are the unpredictable transformative results that we develop in the process. These are the things that become a testimony for others who may find themselves on a similar path or journey. As a basis of ministry, I'd love for my own experience to be able to help somebody else who may be looking to get into the practice of semen retention. Or even seeking out effective remedies to the struggles that come with their journey.
This is what Objective fasting looks like! For Affiliate-members of this workshop looking to make money while making a difference, we re-direct our focus toward a more effective kind of fasting in this fashion. Regardless of your own methods of good health & wellness, always ask the question, "what are my Objectives"?
