Whatever is going on in your mind is what you are attracting to yourself...the Scripture
"...as a man thinks in his heart, so is he" is pretty much always taken out of context from what the verse was originally saying, but the spirit of the truth of it is undeniable...we are like magnets...like attracts like
..."deep calleth unto deep"...you become AND attract what you think...
Because the universe was created by a thought from God that was released through a word (
"Let there be light"), our every thought has a frequency because we are created in His image...the ultimate act of creativity is that the Creator created creators...our thoughts send out a magnetic energy...
People even think about what they
don't want, and attract more of the same...Job said,
"The thing I greatly feared came upon me"...
Thought = creation...if these thoughts are attached to powerful emotions (good or bad) that can even speed up the creation (
"I set before you life AND death, blessing AND cursing, therefore choose life...")
You attract the objects of your dominant thoughts...
Those who speak most of illness have a tendency to have illness...those who speak most of prosperity have it, as well...David said,
"Let the words of my mouth AND the meditation of my heart be acceptable"...Jesus also made the heart/mouth connection in Mark 11:23 when He said to speak to the mountain, and do not doubt in your heart, but believe that you have what you say...He also said
"out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks"...
Choose your thoughts carefully...you are a masterpiece of your life...your thoughts cause your feelings...we don't need to complicate all the "reasons" behind our emotions...it's much simpler than that...two categories...good feelings/bad
feelings...in conventional faith teaching we emphasized the fact that we are not to be moved by what we feel, but I think that concept needs some balance...
Typically, thoughts that bring about good feelings mean you are on the right track...thoughts that bring about bad feelings means you are not on the right track...
For the rest, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honorable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things [fix your minds on them]. (Philippians 4:8 - AMP)
Generally, whatever it is you are feeling is a perfect reflection of what is in the process of becoming...it's what we sometimes call "the witness of the Spirit/spirit"...you get exactly what you are FEELING...Jesus said,
"to them that have more will be given"...I prefer to exalt joy over happiness, but the truth is that happy feelings will attract more happy circumstances...
You can begin feeling whatever you want (even if it's not there)...David understood this (
"Bless the Lord, O my soul"..."Why are you cast down, O my soul?")...David encouraged HIMSELF in the Lord...the universe (uni-verse literally means "one song") will correspond to the nature of your personal song...there's power in your praise...
What you focus on with your thought and feeling is what you attract into your experience...Isaiah talked about
"declaring the end from the beginning"...Paul said that God
"calls those things which are not as though they were"...What you think and what you feel and what actually manifests is ALWAYS a match...in that sense, you are the most accurate prophet in your own life...
Shift your awareness...
Winston Churchill said, "You create your own universe as you go along"...
It's important to feel good...the joy of the Lord is your strength...
You can change your emotion immediately...by thinking of something joyful, or singing a song, or remembering a happy experience...Jesus said that Holy Spirit will bring all things to your remembrance...it's why we have testimonies (old school: "You don't know like I know what He's done for me!")...
Life can and should be phenomenal, and it will be when you consciously apply these spiritual principles...your universe will re-arrange itself accordingly...God created His worlds with His words...you create your world with your words...He upholds all things by the word of His power...you uphold the things in your life by the word of your power...
In Job it says,
"You shall decree a thing and it will be established unto you"...you can attract everything you require - money, people, connections...PAY ATTENTION to what's being set in front of you...Jeus said,
"Behold, I have set before you an open door..."...
You can start with nothing but your faith...and out of nothing or no way, a WAY will be provided
..."streams in the desert and ways in in the wilderness"...you can turn your own water into wine, and multiply your own loaves and fishes into enough food to feed thousands...
HOW LONG? No rules on time
..."one day with the Lord is as a thousand years"...but, as a rule, the more aligned you are with positive feelings, the quicker things happen...
Size is nothing to the universe (unlimited abundance if that's what
you prefer to call it)...and size is nothing to the God who created it all...we are the ones who make the rules on size and time...Jesus said,
"Believe you receive WHEN YOU PRAY"...
No rules according to the universe...He does more than we can ask or think ACCORDING TO THE POWER THAT WORKS IN US...you provide the feelings of having it now, and the universe will respond...
Most people offer the majority of their thought in response to what they are observing with the natural eye (bills in the mail, being late, having "bad luck", etc)...you have to find a different approach to what is through a different vantage point...Faith is the evidence of things NOT SEEN
..."for we look to the things which are not seen, for the things which are seen are temporal"...
"we walk by faith and not by sight...
"All that we are is a result of what we have thought" - Buddha
What can you do right now to turn your life around? Gratitude...
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God...(Philippians 4:6 - NKJV)
Gratitude will bring more into our lives immediately...God is good (all the time)...can I get a witness?
What we think about and
THANK about is what we bring about...
What are the things for which you are grateful? Feel the gratitude...count your blessings...focus on what you have right now...(
"Moses, what do you have IN YOUR HAND?")
Play the picture in your mind - focus on the end result...
VISUALIZE, as Jacob did so many times...
rehearse your future...
VISUALIZE!!! See it...feel it! This is the day that the Lord (and you) have made...rejoice and be glad in it!
