The Creative Power in Man
Part 3
The Body Temple
By Alain Yaovi Dagba
I will begin by asking you a very important question here: Do you really know your body? I mean, do you really know what it is? The body is not so much the pack of flesh and bones that you see in the mirror. No, that is the temple of the body. The body itself is a spiritual entity that is infused within the tissues of the pack of flesh and bones that you carry around.
The body is a spiritual entity. Just as the pack of flesh and bones make up the temple of the real body, so does the real body constitutes a temple to the Spirit of God. Saint Paul says that “our body is the temple of God’s Holy Spirit” (1 Corinthians 6: 19).
God is Spirit and He lives in a Spiritual body, which is our real-body. Now, our real-body is encased in what we usually see as our real-body. This pack of flesh and bones can be called the physical body. It has the exact form of the real-body; for it came out of it.

The Mental Power That Brings Success
written by Alain Yaovi M. Dagba
The mental power is the combination of the works of three dynamic functions of the mind that are:
1-Imagination
2-Analysis
3-Conception
I also call them the 3 creative devices of the mind. But, there is one important thing that most people ignore. They ignore that the heart is also a mind on its own. There is a saying that goes: “The heart has its own reason that the reasoning of the mind is not aware of”. This is true.
Yes, the heart is also a thinking entity. Many people can actually recall the time their head were thinking something different from their feeling. Well, to feel is to think with the heart.
And when we are talking about the mental power, we are not just talking about the thinking of the head. There is no power in thinking until the thinking devices of the heart connect with that of the head. The followings are the thinking devices of the heart:
1-Desire
2-Will
3-Satisfaction
To have true mental power, all you need to do is to bring these six creative devices into perfect marriage by knowing where each “gender” belongs.
The Creative Power in Man
Written by Alain Yaovi M. Dagba
Why are some people more creative than others? Creativity is the essence of success and fulfillment. Creativity is intelligence manifesting itself at the highest point.
Intelligence is a natural quality in all people, but not so with creativity. All human qualities are natural in us.
What is natural is undeveloped. Though it is a divine inheritance, it must be fully awakened in order to function with full power.
Creativity is intelligence awakened to function with full power. There are many degrees of creativity. This is why some people can create faster than others.
Some people cannot create anything at all__Ideas simply don’t come to their mind. And most people who are not creative think that they are not intelligent. This is not true; for if they were not intelligent they could not even have been aware of their inability to create.
The Biblical Story
Matthew 6: 19-34;
A-"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
