The Power of Peace
Have you heard the advice to steer clear of confrontations and reduce the likelihood of being hurt?
This article explains why avoiding confrontation is a powerful way to protect yourself, both physically and spiritually. By staying connected to positive energy and steering clear of negativity, you can shield yourself from harm and maintain your spiritual protection.
This advice isn’t meant to make you seem weak or to let people walk all over you. Growing up in my small village, this was a lesson my parents and grandparents repeated to me over and over. It’s a teaching that’s been preserved in our culture so that every generation can learn and benefit from it. Today, I want to share why this advice is so important and why it wasn’t just something our grandparents or parents made up.
Some People Dislike You for No Reason
You’ll encounter people who dislike you for reasons they can’t even explain. You’re not alone—others are facing the same thing as we speak. Unfortunately, this is a part of life that will never go away. A person who dislikes you might provoke you, but their chances of attacking you are small until they get a reaction. They simply need a reason to do what they’ve always wanted. However, when you avoid confrontation—whether physical or verbal—they may feel frustrated, but they won’t have a reason to attack you.
Why Avoiding Confrontation Doesn’t Mean Ignoring the Situation
I didn’t use the word “ignore” because it’s important to stay aware of the people and things around you. You can’t ignore the fact that someone dislikes you and may be out to harm you. While staying alert, avoiding confrontation helps protect you from their harmful intentions.
Understanding Energy in the Spiritual Realm
Humans feed off energy in the spiritual realm because we all have a spiritual side connected to it. This connection means you’re either drawing from positive or negative energy. People connected to evil energy may show their true colors, but they can’t harm you as long as you stay connected to positive spiritual forces. The moment you disconnect from positive energy, you make yourself vulnerable to harm.
Why Aligning with Negative Energy Puts You in Danger
When you engage with someone who has ill intentions toward you, you risk connecting to the same negative energy they’re aligned with. Evil doesn’t protect evil—it destroys. Only positive forces offer protection. If you separate yourself from good by engaging with evil, you also lose the protection you once had.
The Power of Voodoo and Obeah Only Works If You Allow It
When you hear about practices like voodoo or obeah, they work in a similar way. These forces can only affect you if you allow them to. The person summoning evil needs a reason to direct harm toward you. But if you avoid confrontation, that evil won’t succeed because you remain connected to good forces, and your protection stays intact.
The Danger of Weakening Your Spiritual Protection
Many people fail because they weaken themselves by detaching from positive spiritual forces and embracing evil to fight their enemies. You cannot be protected by God and His angelic forces if you’re standing with the other side. This is why the teaching, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,” is so important. If you want good to come your way, you need to bring good to others—these are spiritual laws.
Why Avoiding Confrontation Is Your Best Defense
As you can see, the advice to avoid giving people a reason to hurt you and to steer clear of confrontation isn’t about appearing weak. It’s your best defense to keep yourself safe under the continuous protection of God and His angelic forces. Don’t let anyone cause you to side with negative forces just to fight. That’s the strategy evil uses to achieve its mission.
