Thou shalt decree a thing, and it shall be
established unto thee."
All the good that is to be made manifest in man's
life is already an accomplished fact in divine mind
, and is released through man's recognition, or
spoken word, so he must be careful to decree
that only the Divine Idea be made manifest, for
often, he decrees, through his "idle words," failure
or misfortune.
It is, therefore, of the utmost importance, to
word one's demands correctly, as stated in a
previous chapter.
If one desires a home, friend, position or any
other good thing, make the demand for the
"divine selection."
For example: "Infinite Spirit, open the way for my
right home, my right friend, my right position. I
give thanks it now manifests under
grace in a perfect way."
The latter part of the statement is most
important. For example: I knew a woman who
demanded a thousand dollars. Her daughter was
injured and they received a thousand dollars
indemnity, so it did not come in a "perfect way."
The demand should have been worded in this
way: "Infinite Spirit, I give thanks that the one
thousand dollars, which is mine by divine right,
is now released, and reaches me under grace in
a perfect way."
As one grows in a financial consciousness, he
should demand that the enormous sums of money,
which are his by divine right, reach him under
grace, in perfect ways.
It is impossible for man to release more than he
thinks is possible, for one is bound by the limited
expectancies of the subconscious. He must
enlarge his expectancies in order to receive in a
larger way.
Man so often limits himself in his demands. For
example: A student made the demand for six
hundred dollars, by a certain date. He did receive
it, but heard afterwards, that he came very near
receiving a thousand dollars, but he was given
just six hundred, as the result of his spoken word.
"They limited the Holy One of Isreal." Wealth is a
matter of consciousness. The French have a
legend giving an example of this. A poor man was
walking along a road when he met a traveler, who
stopped him and said: "My good friend, I see you
are poor. Take this gold nugget, sell it, and you
will be rich all your days."
The man was overjoyed at his good fortune, and
took the nugget home. He immediately found
work and became so prosperous that he did not
sell the nugget. Years passed, and he became a
very rich man. One day he met a poor man on
the road. He stopped him and said: "My good
friend, I will give you this gold nugget, which,
if you sell, will make you rich for life." The
mendicant took the nugget, had it valued, and
found it was only brass. So we see, the first
man became rich through feeling rich,
thinking the nugget was gold.
Every man has within himself a gold nugget; it is
his consciousness of gold, of
opulence, which brings riches
into his life. In making his
demands, man begins at his journey's end,
that is he declares he has already received.
"Before ye call I shall answer."
Continually affirming establishes the belief in the
subconscious.
It would not be necessary to make an affirmation
more than once if one had perfect faith! One
should not plead or supplicate, but give thanks
repeatedly, that he has received.
"The desert shall rejoice and blossom as the rose."
This rejoicing which is yet in the desert (state of
consciousness) opens the way for release. The
Lord's Prayer is in the form of command and
demand,"Give us this day our daily bread, and
forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors,
" and ends in praise,"For thine is the Kingdom
and the Power and the Glory, forever. Amen."
"Concerning the works of my hands,
command ye me." So prayer is command and
demand, praise and thanksgiving. The sutdent's
work is in making himself believe that "with
God all things are possible."
This is easy enough to state in the abstract, but a
little more difficult when confronted with a
problem. For example: It was necessary for a
woman to demonstrate a large sum of money
within a stated time. She knew she must do
something to get a realization (for realization
is manifestation), and she demanded a "lead."
She was walking through a department store,
when she saw a very beautiful pink enamel
papercutter. She felt the "pull" towards it. The
thought came. "I haven't a paper cutter good
enough to open letters containing large cheques."
So she bought the papercutter, which the
reasoning mind would have called an extra-
vagance. When she held it in her hand, she had
a flash of a picture of herself opening an
envelope containing a large cheque, and in a few
weeks, she received the money. The pink
papercutter was her bridge of active faith.
Many stories are told of the power of the
subconscious when directed in faith.
For example: A man was spending the night in a
farmhouse. The windows of the room had been
nailed down, and in the middle of the night he
felt suffocated and made his way in the dark to
the window. He could not open it, so he smashed
the pane with his fist, drew in draughts of
fine fresh air, and had a wonderful night's sleep.
The next morning, he found he had smashed the
glass of a bookcase and the window had
remained closed during the whole night. He had
supplied himself with oxygen, simply by his thought of oxygen.
When a student starts out to demonstrate, he
should never turn back. "Let not that man who
wavers think that he shall receive anything of the Lord."
A colored student once made this wonderful
statement,"When I asks the Father for anything,
I puts my foot down, and I says: Father, I'll take
nothing less than I've asked for, but more!" So
man should never compromise: "Having done all -
Stand." This is sometimes the most difficult time
of demonstrating. The temptation comes to give
up, to turn back, to compromise.
"He also serves who only stands and waits."
Demonstrations often come at the eleventh hour
because man then lets go, that is, stops
reasoning, and Infinite Intelligence has a
chance to work.
"Man's dreary desires are answered drearily, and
his impatient desires, long delayed or violently
fulfilled. For example: A woman asked me why
it was she was constantly losing or breaking her
glasses.
We found she often said to herself and others with
vexation,"I wish I could get rid of my glasses." So
her impatient desire was violently fulfilled. What
she should have demanded was perfect eye-sight,
but what she registered in the subconscious was
simply the impatient desire to be rid of her
glasses; so they were continually being broken or lost.
Two attitudes of mind cause loss: depreciation, as
in the case of the woman who did not appreciate
her husband, or fear of loss, which makes a
picture of loss in the subconscious.
When a student is able to let go of his problem
(cast his burden) he will have instantaneous manifestation.
For example: A woman was out during a very
stormy day and her umbrella was blown inside-
out. She was about tomake a call on some people
whom she had never met and she did not wish
to make her first appearance with a dilapidated
umbrella. She could not throw it away, as it did
not belong to her. So in desperation, she
exclaimed: "Oh God, you take charge of this
umbrella, I don't know what to do."
A moment later, a voice behind her said: "Lady,
do you want your umbrella mended? There
stood an umbrella mender.
She replied, "Indeed, I do."
The man mended the umbrella, while she went
into the house to pay her call, and when she
returned, she had a good umbrella. So there is
always an umbrella mender at hand, on man's
pathway, when one puts the umbrealla (or
situation) in God's Hands.
One should always follow a denial with an affirmation.
For example: I was called on the 'phone late one
night to treat a man whom I had never seen. He
was apparently very ill. I made the statement: "I
deny this appearance of disease. It is unreal,
therefore cannot register in his consciousness; this
man is a perfect idea in Divine Mind, pure
substance expressing perfection."
There is no time or space, in Divine Mind,
therefore the word reaches instantly its
destination and does not "return void." I have
treated patients in Europe and have found
that the result was instantaneous.
I am asked so often the difference between
visualizing and visioning. Visualizing is a
mental process governed by the reasoning
or conscious mind; visioning is a spiritual
process, governed by intuition, or the
superconscious mind.
The student should train his mind to receive these
flashes of inspiration, and work out the "divine
pictures," through definite leads. When a man can
say, "I desire only that which God desires for me,
" his new set of blueprints is given him by the
Master Architect, the God within. God's plan
for each man transcends the limitation of the
reasoning mind, and is always the square of life,
containing health, wealth, love and perfect
self-expression. Many a man is building for
himself in imagination a bungalow when he
should be building a palace.
If a student tries to force a demonstration
(through the reasoning mind) he brings it to
a standstill. "I will hasten it, " saith the Lord.
He should act only through intuition, or
definite leads. "Rest in the Lord and wait
patiently. Trust also in him, and he will
bring it to pass."
I have seen the law work in the most astonishing
manner. For example: A student stated that it
was necessary for her to have a hundred dollars
for the following day. It was a debt of vital
importance which had to be met. I "spoke the
word," declaring Spirit was "never too late"
and that the supply was at hand.
That evening she phoned me of the miracle. She
said that the thought came to her to go to her
safe-deposit box at the bank to examine some
papers. She looked over the papers, and at the
bottom of the box, was a new one hundred dollar
bill. She was astounded, and said she knew she
had never put it there, for she had gone through
the papers many times. It may have been a
materialization, as Jesus Christ materialized the
loaves and fishes. Man will reach the stage
where his "word is made flesh," or materialized,
instantly."The fields, ripe with the harvest,
" will manifest immediately, as in all of the
miracles of Jesus Christ.
There is a tremendous power alone in the name
Jesus Christ. It stands for Truth Made
Manifest. He said,"Whatsoever ye ask the
Father, in my name, he will give it to you."
The power of this name raises the student into
the fourth dimension, where he is freed from
all astral and psychic influences, and he becomes
"unconditioned and absolute, as God Himself is
unconditioned and absolute."
I have seen many healings accomplished by using
the words, "In the name of Jesus Christ."
Christ was both person and principle; and the
Christ within each man is his Redeemer and
Salvation.
The Christ within, is his own fourth dimensional
self, the man made in God's image and likeness.
This is the self which has never failed, never
known sickness or sorrow, was never born and
has never died. It is the "resurrection and the
life" of each man! "No man cometh to the Father
save by the Son," means, that God, the Universal,
working on the place of the particular, becomes
the Christ in man; and the Holy Ghost, means
God-in-action. So daily, man is manifesting the
fruits of the Holy Ghost.
Man should make an art of thinking. The Master
Thinker is an artist and is careful to paint only
the divine designs upon the canvas of his mind;
and he paints these pictures with masterly
strokes of power and decision, having perfect
faith that there is no power to mar their
perfection and that they shall manifest in his life
the ideal made real.
All power is given man (through right thinking) to
bring his heaven upon his earth, and this is
the goal of the "Game of Life."
The simple rules are fearless faith, nonresistance and love!
May each reader be now freed from that thing
which has held him in bondage through the ages,
standing between him and his own, and "know
the Truth which makes him free"- free to fulfill
his destiny, to bring into manifestation the
"Divine Design of his life, Health,
Wealth, Love and Perfect Self-Expression."
"Be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind."
