Affirm A Spiritual Truth

“By understanding how it works, we can cooperate with the Divine process of creation, instead of resisting it out of ignorance or fear.  Every time we affirm a spiritual Truth, we are able to express more of our own creative power, thus aligning ourselves with that Divine process more effectively.

To fully let go and allow Spirit to be our source for every choice, we rely on denials and affirmations.  We deny thoughts of lack or limitation.  We affirm that we are strong, positive, wise, loving, fearless, and free beings of Spirit.

Letting go of our fear-based thoughts and replacing them with affirmations of infinite Love involves a powerful interaction of head and heart.  As the process unfolds, we experience the Christ Presence of peace.”

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding.”  Proverbs 3:5

Make Peace With Where You Are

“When we say to you, make peace with where you are, we want you to make peace with where everyone is; we want you to make peace with the world events; we want you to make peace with where your friend is in relationship with where your friend wants to be. We want it to be all right with you where anybody is.”

Abraham-Hicks, 5/14/05

Romans 12:16-21 New International Version (NIV)

“16 Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position. Do not be conceited.

17 Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. 18 If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. 19 Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord. 20 On the contrary:

“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
    if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”

21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.”

 

Manifesting Miracles In Your Life

“Refuse to allow yourself to have low expectations about what you’re capable of creating. As Michelangelo suggested, the greater danger is not that your hopes are too high and you fail to reach them; it’s that they’re too low and you do. Have within you an imaginary candle flame that burns brightly regardless of what goes before you. Let this inner flame represent for you the idea that you’re capable of manifesting miracles in your life.

In every single case of a person experiencing a spontaneous healing or overcoming something that was considered to be impossible, the individual went through a complete reversal of personality. They actually rewrote their own agreement with reality. To experience Godlike spontaneous miracles, you must have a sense of yourself as Godlike.

The Scriptures say, ‘With God all things are possible.’ Now tell me, what does that leave out? A mind that’s open to everything means being peaceful, radiating love, practicing forgiveness, being generous, respecting all life, and most important, visualizing yourself as capable of doing anything that you can conceive of in your mind and heart. Whatever universal law that has ever been utilized to manifest a miracle anywhere, any time, and in any person is still on the books. It has never been repealed, and it never will be. You possess the same energy, the same God-consciousness, to be a miracle worker—but only if you truly believe and know it within yourself.

Understand that what you think about expands (‘As a man thinketh, so is he.’). If your thoughts are filled with doubt and you have a closed mind, you will of necessity act upon those closed-minded doubts, and you’ll see evidence of your thinking virtually everywhere you are. On the other hand, should you decide (make no mistake about this, it is a choice) to have a mind that’s open to everything, then you’ll act upon that inner energy, and you’ll be the creator as well as the recipient of miracles wherever you are. You will experience what Walt Whitman meant when he wrote, ‘To me … every inch of space is a miracle.’ ”

Love Is A State Of Mind

” ‘Perfect love casts out fear.’  God is with you as perfect love.  You cannot be afraid in the presence of God; you cannot be doubtful or anxious; you cannot be bound by what you have been in the past; you cannot be limited by what you have thought of yourself or what others have thought of you.  Here in this present moment you are free; you are a child of God; you are standing on holy ground.

Meditate on the idea that there is a Spirit in you that is unfettered, unbound, triumphant, splendid, glorious, free.  You cannot help but respond to this transcendent vision.”

1 John 4:18 “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.” King James Version

The Golden Key – Emmet Fox

“Scientific prayer will enable you to get yourself, or anyone else, out of any difficulty.  It is the golden key to harmony and happiness.

This is because in scientific prayer it is God who works, and not you, and so your particular limitations or weaknesses are of no account in the process.  You are only the channel through which the divine action takes place, and your treatment will be just the getting of yourself out of the way.

All you have to do is this: Stop thinking about the difficulty, whatever it is, and think about God instead.  This is the complete rule, and if only you will do this, the trouble, whatever it is, will disappear. Whatever trouble it is, stop thinking about it and think of God instead — that is all you have to do.

Your object is to drive the thought of the difficulty out of your consciousness, for a few moments at least, substituting for it the thought of God. This is the crux of the whole thing.  If you can become so absorbed in this consideration of the spiritual world that you forget for a while about the difficulty, you will find that you are safely and comfortably out of your difficulty — that your demonstration is made.

We have said that the golden key is simple, and so it is, but of course it is no always easy to turn.  If you are very frightened or worried, at first it may be difficult to get your thoughts away from material things.  But by constantly repeating a statement of absolute Truth, such as: “There is no power but God; I AM the child of God, filled and surrounded by the perfect peace of God: God is love: God is guiding me now; or, perhaps best and simplest of all, God is with me” –however mechanical or trite it may seem– you will soon find that the treatment has begun to “”take” and that your mind is clearing.  Do not struggle violently; be quiet, but insistent.  Each time you find your attention wandering, switch it back to God.

“Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”          Acts 2:21
