There are principles and principalities in the world that continually tug at our senses. Even though people accept and reject these entities with little realization of their existence they can be detected and controlled. It is our desire to bring an awareness to people that much of what effects them can not only be controlled but used to their advantage.
"Tell me Don, if there is a word of God that contains incredible power for our advantage but it has eluded us, how then can we find and invoke it?"
"Well Jon, our first observation is this; is there such a Power at all? If so, could such a power protect us from evil? Is there a way to recognize this truth and use it in such a manner that good, and only good comes of it? Because evil in form or another dominates the mind of most people, it has a crippling effect that clouds rational thinking. People can not invoke God's word without first clearing the mind or becoming free of evil's influence."
"But Don, I always thought I was a pretty rational thinking guy, what do you mean by clearing the mind?"
"Like our total environment, our mind has become contaminated by outside influences. No person can make a rational judgment of himself/herself. We no longer think clear because we don't know what clear thinking is. We can't recognize our own dilemma because we are part of it. It is impossible for us to be impartial in our observance of ourselves because we see ourselves from a biased viewpoint "
"If I can't judge myself, how can I know when or if my mind is clear"
"That's a good question Jon. Perhaps you could never be completely free from the contaminates of the mind but, a well trained professional could, at least, elevate your understanding and reduce the influence."
First, free yourself.
The first approach to becoming free is understanding. Through understanding all things become clear as truth replaces our clouded state of observance. While truth opens the doorway to the secret chamber; we should also realize that this power must be used affirmatively. We cannot use it while we deny it. We cannot use it while our minds are filled with doubts and uncertainties about it. Truth is a knowing that faith is the key to its use. Truth contains nothing that could work against us. Truth eliminates false and all contaminates associated with it. So then this is the starting point; truth can never be damaging and begins as a faith that will not be denied.
Then understand
Through understanding truth, we use faith affirmatively, a Law of Good operates on our word and brings into our experience, or the experience of those we are thinking of. The truth we have accepted is reveled as a divine presence in everything we see and do. The creative power of God is imbedded in the human atom, just as Einstein discovered the secret energy caught in the atom, so also can man discover the power of the Kingdom of God which is truth itself.
Where truth comes from
Because truth stems from God, it is available to everyone. A receptor was placed within the human physic or spirit of man so man could experience truth through emotion. Love, hate, sadness, joy all expand our experience to personal improvement. We are improved through emotional involvement. When this dynamic power is discovered it transforms you into a different person. You are reborn, so to speak. Rebirthed into a liberating freedom that transcends the human experience, you truly become a child of God.
It is the use of this power that is the most intriguing because there is a possibility here beyond our fondest dreams and our highest expatiations - the possibility of knowing the truth that can set us free from fear and want and limitation. Finally and clearly as the Holy scriptures tells us, from death itself.
Be responsible
But a responsibility lies in discovering the power and learned how to use it, it must be applied to every situation in life. Once found, one cannot set by and merely be an idle dreamer, drowning in a whirlpool of theories that, however beautiful, can produce no practical results in our everyday living.
As previously stated, we must first realize that the Power exist and that it becomes operational from the center of our own being. This knowledge brings a great burden on our responsibility to use the power in a cautious manner. Definite times every day should be set aside to recognize the Divine presence within and around us. Even this must be more than a vague thought. It must be a resolution in of itself into definite affirmation statements which focus on this Divine presence.
There cannot be any ifs, and or buts about it., no confusion, it must be simple and direct. You must know what you know with faith in the truth of knowing. These are the conditions God has passed down, but to be effective they must be followed by another instruction, which is; when you pray or meditate, when you state your desire, do so affirmatively. Instead of saying, 'it may be that good will come to me,' or, 'it is possible that it might,' or ' perhaps it will, I hope so,' you should say;
The good I desire in my live, I already posses. That which I ask for I now receive. That which I want and need I now have. Thank you God for this granting my request.
In Using The Power
Stay direct and positive in your request, always thinking God for granting your request and for His generosity. The thing that happens when we pray correctly is simple. We create an attitude of complete acceptance in our own minds. When we do this, the all-powerful law of expansion begins to operate on our acceptance and begins to rearrange all the facts and activities of our lives in such a way that what we have ask for and accepted will actually be revealed in our experience.
Begin now to transform your life into that which you have always wanted.
Happy trails
