What You Believe About Yourself

This video clip taken from the Rev. Ike biography book release livestream marathon!

My father had the fire flowing through him. And that energy is still flowing through us and with us. Now, your faith in God is no good to you unless and until you believe in yourself. Because your belief in the God in you is the activator of your inner power and your inner fire. That fire of the soul that was placed within you before you were born. See, that fire had to be put in there like a rocket. It lifts off. The fire happens on the ground before it even lifts off. So we had the fire before we came here. That fire moved us onto this earth plane, and it continues to burn.

There are some forces that would want to quell and squelch that fire, but we don't let it. We command our own authority and reclaim our belief in ourselves, reclaim our authority and our ability to have joy and create all the good that we want in our lives. We together consciously create these fields of great possibility that become probability and then actuality, and we manifest those things.

Use your God power to create what you desire in your life.

Supernatural Miracles and Healings

Please enjoy this reading from my father's biography book, Reverend Ike: An Extraordinary Life of Influence.

One of the amazing gifts that my father expressed in the world was healing. I chose this excerpt to read because the world needs healing.

I believe that as we read this book and get an idea of some of the powerful things that my father accomplished, this book will function as a self-improvement manual for our growth and success.

In other words, you're not just reading about somebody. You'll be inspired to take on some of the same powers, energy, and success that he was able to do, but in your own way. We need to be the healers in this world right now, and so I believe this excerpt will inspire you to step up to your healing power.

This is from the chapter called Supernatural Miracles and Healings.

RITUAL & CEREMONY

Boys to Men: The Rhythm of Initiation

In the above video Xavier shares the West African rhythm, Soli, which is a rhythm played for initiation rituals inaugurating a boy’s passage into manhood.

Initiation is a specialized type of ritual activity important for the same reasons myth is important: providing controlled access to numinous energies and guidance to effective use of archetypal patterns. There is a vast and ancient tradition of initiation the world over. Tribal societies from time immemorial have used rites of passage events in order to mark the movement from one phase of life into the next. 

RITUAL & CEREMONY

Moribayassa: A Rhythm of Gratitude

In Africa, rhythm is an important feature of daily life. It is also experienced as an expression of the elemental energies of the worlds of nature and spirit. West Africans of the Malinke culture and their predecessors have played specific rhythms for thousands of years to accompany, underscore, and perpetuate various aspects of life. 

Music is often used in ceremonies and celebrations, wherein musical pieces are danced and played with drums and other instruments. These occasions mark the progression of people’s lives from birth to death and instances in between, such as initiations and rites of passage for youth, warriors, numerous guilds, and societal sub-groups. 

In the above video, Xavier plays the ceremonial rhythm for the Moribayassa, a sacred rite of passage for West African women who have endured and emerged from a challenging circumstance or life storm, such as infertility or grave illness. The women dance in celebration and deep gratitude to their deity, Moriba Yassa. Through ritualized power of drumming and ceremonial theater, these dancers harness rhythm, vibration, and collective energy to produce alchemical magic and initiation. 

 

SPIRITUALITY & METAPHYSICS

Power of the Dark Feminine

In this thought-provoking video, Xavier takes us on an inspiring journey into the heart of the “Dark Mother”—the primal, creative force that is life, death, and the Great Mystery.

Xavier speaks to the complexities of patriarchy and masculine domination in our society, rooted in the insecurity and fear of the feminine. 

The key to our collective transformation lies in surrendering to the mysteries of the creative, imaginative space within us all. Instead of relying solely on intellect and Western technology, we must embrace the wisdom of our common ancestry, rooted in indigenous cultures and practices.

Watch the video and unlock the transformative power of the dark feminine, and her place in our individual and planetary healing, unification, and a reawakening of human consciousness.
