As Black magicians, we must cast aside any weaknesses and misconceptions if we want to reign supreme as master sorcerers. I bring this point forward so that there can be no misunderstanding the importance of this statement. The power is in you, and you must build your personal power unto the extent where it is stronger and more pervasive than that of your adversary(s) if you wish to survive and become as a god.
There are way too many individuals who join a Satanic institution or community, expecting Satan and His Principalities and Powers to perform tricks for them just because they have sided with the Powers of Darkness. Little do they reason that their immortal souls will gravitate into the darkness in any case, so where is their bargaining chip?
Traditionally, there are three ways to gain the assistance of daemons or spirits to act upon your behalf. One is to trap them between the worlds, only freeing them if they serve you. Another is to bargain with them for property, chattel or advantage, and the last is to ask for compassion. All of these traditional methods are lacking in a true positive outcome as you are at all times in the sore position of opposition or that of outright owing favors to outside ethereal entities which is not the optimum condition for satisfactory existence. Even in the case of being cohorts with them, you are in and out, constantly trading this for that. Flip, flop. Daemons are not all that generous.
However, there is another way, and that way is to become a powerful beacon of ethereal energy, strong enough that spirits and daemons will seek you to gain their sustenance and to bask in your expended energy. In this case, they are always in your debt as they are, in fact feeding off you. So to balance their existence, they must condescend to serve you by aiding and assisting you in your endeavors to alter outcomes in accord with your own personal preference when you desire it.
Lucifer does not jump through hoops to provide everyone who calls upon His Name with a few extra bucks or a fresh lover. What He does do, however, is to open the Gate of Power to each person who asks by removing the limitations, hangs and fears that prevent lesser individuals from achieving success in their personal and environmental endeavors. It is then up to those selected individuals to reach out and acquire their personal power from the source of dark energy that permeates the cosmos.
Satan is not a nursemaid either. Instead, He gives you the ability and heightened awareness and mental and emotional clarity to adequately control that which affects you or has a direct bearing upon your life or the lives of those in your charge. In other words, He expects you to learn to wipe your own nose and tuck in your own shirt.
There are nursemaids, however, for the young and the new. They are among the Satanists who have gone on before and believe so strongly in liberating mankind from the forces of the opposition who would enslave them, that they will at times, reach back and raise up a such promising individual from the depths to the heights so that they may in turn aid and assist their own brethren in their endeavors to become. Their gift is to light the way. However, they will only do this so long, as they expect each aspiring mage to gather His or Her own personal power to handle their own affairs and fulfill their own commitments.
Each mage must endeavor to complete his or her connection with the source, and when that occurs, their light will burn bright and they will become as a god and attract all manner of lesser beings unto their presence for succor and sustenance. This is as it should be and ultimately fair. Use it or lose it. The gift of freedom is yours from Satan. The DarkLite of wisdom and knowledge is yours from Lucifer, and the tenacity to accomplish your desires is a gift from the Devil. You have been given much. The tools for greatness are yours due to your exalted station in the fold of the Dark Lord, but you have to make use of your gifts. That is up to you.
