Elay Amitay Halevi explains how difficult moments serve as spiritual cleansing, preparing you to receive what you've asked for through prayer and energy work.
So let's go over it again. You pray for something simply by saying you want something is a form of prayer. The energy of that fulfillment comes down. In order for that energy to be fulfilled, it needs to detoxify any quality that is opposite the fulfillment. And that's why we go through challenges. And what comes to the surface, you find out, are the parts of us that are weak, the parts of us that are still needy, the parts of us that don't have certainty, the parts of us that are afraid, the parts of us that get angry or controlling or manipulative. All of a sudden, that's when it all starts to come out. That is a good sign. If you're experiencing your negativity, that's a good sign. If you're getting angry, angrier than ever, that's a good sign. If you find that you're lashing out more or you're shutting down or even having depressed thoughts, that's a good sign, because it's a detoxin. Negative qualities that have been with our soul since birth and past lifetimes as well. New energy wants to come in. So the negative qualities must emerge and be cleansed. And this is why we always say, when you feel pain, when you feel doubts, when you feel insecurity, you just pause and you say, what a gift. Because saying what a gift is cleansing the negativity. It's neutralizing it. You are essentially saying, I agree. I agree with what's happening. The sages say in Hebrew, it is matzdik to agree with, to justify. And when you justify something to exist, you're justifying all of creation and you're becoming one with the light of the Creator. This is why miracles occur. Every time a person sees the good in something that appears to be bad.
