_____________________________________

I begin by reading from Kahlil Gibran’s book The Prophet:

“And then a scholar said, Speak of Talking.

And he answered, saying:

You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts.

And when you can no longer dwell in the solitude of your heart, you live in your lips, and sound is a diversion and a pastime.

And in much of your talking, thinking is half-murdered.

For thought is a bird of space, that in the cage of words may, indeed, unfold its wings but cannot fly.

There are those among you who seek the talkative through fear of being alone. The silence of aloneness reveals to their eyes their naked selves and they would escape.

And there are those who talk, and without knowledge or forethought, reveal a truth which they themselves do not understand.

And there are those who have the truth within them, but they tell it not in words. In the bosom of such as these, the Spirit dwells in rhythmic silence.

When you meet a friend on the roadside or in the marketplace, let the Spirit in you move your lips and direct your tongue.

Let the voice within your voice speak to the ear of his ear.

For his soul will keep the truth of your heart as the taste of the wine is remembered when the color is forgotten, and the vessel is no more.”
Kahlil Gibran

An old Chinese proverb says, “We have two ears and two eyes but one tongue in order that we may see and hear twice as much as we speak.”

Words are your most powerful agents of your mind. Words are the tools of the mind that create the conditions and experiences in your lives. You are always using the power of the spoken word, whether you are aware of it or not.

The big questions are this: What words are we speaking? And what conditions and experiences are we creating with our words?

Our lives are the results of the words that we speak.

Scripture says this: “By thy words, thou shalt be justified and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.”

Do we have a God condemning us?

No. We ourselves do the condemning and the judging constantly, every minute, by what we say and what we believe.

One man went to his Minister for help. He had many health problems. In a short while, it was quite evident to the Minister that this man was excessively negative. The Minister invited the man to affirm this next statement 20 times a day: EACH DAY I AM HEALTHIER AND HEALTHIER.

Well, the man returned in a week looking and feeling much worse.

His complaint this time was that he couldn’t use the affirmation very well because he kept losing count. The Minister said, “Well, take a string and tie 20 knots in that string.

Every time you say the statement, move your fingers down to another knot and you won’t have to count.

The man left pleased. When he came back the third time, he was looking worse than ever. “What are you doing?” asked the Minister. “Just what you told me,” said the man. “Twenty times a day I say, ‘Each Day I’m Getting Healthier and Healthier … knot.’

He was negating every positive statement that he made.

When you listen to yourself, I pray that you will hear wonderful things; not frightening things. The problem is, a lot of people say and believe very negative things about themselves.

They are their own worst enemy.

They are constantly talking themselves down. Then they come to a friend or a Minister for prayer and the Minister prays with them. But the Minister cannot change a whole lifetime of negative thought about themselves unless they want to change.

I’ll give you an example. Let’s say that every moment of the day, every day of the week, you talked and believed negative things about yourself. Then you came to me, and we prayed.

That is like if we had a huge tub of water here, the size of this lectern, and the water is at 70 degrees. Then, we pour in one glass of 90-degree water. It’s not going to change the temperature of the water that much.

Prayer changes you, not God. It aligns your awareness with God-thought. But, you have to go the extra mile and change all the other thoughts that are negating that prayer inside of you.

What are you saying to yourself? What are speaking aloud to others about yourself?

Now, let’s suppose that I have a tub of water at 70 degrees, and I pour in a lot of 90-degree water. Pretty soon, all the water is going to be 90 degrees. So, the spiritual temperature inside of you will raise towards God-consciousness as you begin, through the power – of your spoken word, (both audibly and silently), to raise your consciousness.

Changing consciousness through prayer involves all levels in your mind.

To be born again is an ongoing activity. It is talking about a rebirth of your spiritual thought structure inside of yourself; how you think and how you speak.

The conscious level of your mind is your field of awareness. You’re aware of many things, right now. As you’re sitting here listening to me, you’re also thinking about what is for lunch. And you’re thinking about many other things. This is your awareness, right now.

We all have multiple thoughts.

Then we have a sub-conscious level of our mind that is everything that is stored up from the past. It is our memory. Your conscious and your sub-conscious combine together to make your field of awareness in consciousness.

There’s another level of mind, too. That is your super-conscious level of mind.

This is that part in you where spiritual inspiration comes.

Let’s say you sit down to write a letter and you don’t know what to say to a friend. All of a sudden the words are coming, and you are writing that letter. You sit down and don’t know how to do something in a business venture. But as you get into it, the ideas are given to you. That’s God working in your life in a very practical way through your mind.

I’ll give you another practical example. I want you to imagine that the screen of your computer can be compared to your conscious level of mind. It allows you to display the data with which you presently work. This data is called up from the memory of the computer.

The memory is like the sub-conscious level of your mind.

And then, connected to your computer is a modem. That is the part of the computer that allows you to connect with any database anywhere in the world, via the Internet. This could be compared to the super-conscious level in your mind that allows you to tap into the all-knowing mind of God.

A minute ago, I gave an illustration that you are a three-fold being. You are Spirit. You are also soul. You are also body.

Your body is your soul expressing. The soul includes the conscious and sub-conscious minds.

Soul makes the body. The body is an outer clothing of the soul. Bodily health is in exact correspondence to the health of your soul.

Now, how do we raise the health of our soul? Well, we program our human computer differently. Through the power of the spoken word, we say yes and no to our thoughts. We say no to negative thinking. And we affirm inspirations saying YES that come from the super-conscious level. The result inside of you is an overall elevation of your entire awareness system.

Saying no – Jesus said, “Let all your words be yes, yes or no, no.” Why did He say that? Because He was talking about God-given power, inside of you, to take control of your own mind. Jesus was giving you the power that has been held secret for the ages.

He was saying, “You can say no to what you don’t want in your life, and it will get out. You will evict it from your mind. You have a God-given power to reject unwanted habits and addictions. And you will say yes to what you do want, and it will become part of your mind and life.”

When we speak, when we decree, we program our inner computer. Thoughts held in mind manifest after their kind in body and in our lives.

Let me make this practical. Here’s a true story. A man in New York always said, “I always miss cabs. The taxi invariably pulls away just as I arrive.” And, of course, he always misses taxis.

His daughter watched this all of her life. Now she says, “I ALWAYS catch taxis. The cab is sure to come just as I get there.” And, of course, she always catches taxis.

Well, are we praying to the “great taxi God?” No. We are becoming more aware. The man who misses taxis totally expects to miss taxis, so he does. He brings it to pass.

What, are you expecting to miss in your life?

Maybe it’s health in your physical body. Maybe your parents had illness and you expect to inherit it. Or maybe your parents were not the success that they always wanted to be, and therefore you believe that you can’t be a success.

How is your mind programmed?

Can you change it?

Yes! You can change it today. No matter what you were yesterday – this is a brand-new day and you make the conscious spiritual choice through the power of your spoken words to take positive action.

Every time you speak, you have a listening audience of a trillion cells in your body and mind.

Have you ever had an old-fashioned chat with a friend?

This “old-fashioned chat” means getting together with a friend and that “old-fashioned chat” would contain about 500-1,000 destructive words. The principle topic would be, “Poor Me” on the part of your friend: loss, lack, failure, and sickness.

Your reply should be, “No thank you. I’ve had enough old-fashioned chats in my life. And they’re too expensive. I would be glad to come over and have a new-fashioned chat with you and talk about what we want; not what we do not want.”

A person can only dare to use his or her words for three purposes: to bless, to heal and to prosper others AND ourselves.

We often leave out ourselves. We can see this for others, but we have to think about ourselves.

There’s an old farmer’s saying: “Curses, like chickens, come home to roost.”

Are you cursing yourself? If so, they’re going to come home. It’s going to be like the boomerang. It’s going to go out from you and it’s going to come back, hitting you.

In the Bible it says, “Thou shalt decree a thing and it shall be established unto thee.” It is the Truth about you, today. This works. And it works in the cathedral of your life, in the temple of your body.

There are invisible forces just on the other side of the veil; forces that we cannot see; forces that directly affect you. These forces are the forces of God the good. And they are just waiting for you to call forth those powers. They will not respond unless you call them forth. Make yourself a vessel of their creation.

I’d like to imagine that all your words came alive. Well, your words do come alive. Our words are King Kong and our body and mind like Fay Wray. The monsters that we are creating with our own words are real, and they only know how to attack us.

Let me close with this story. A man was driving in the country late at night when one of the tires on his car went flat. He had a spare tire, but he didn’t have a jack. It seemed that the only thing to do was to walk back to the nearest farmhouse and borrow a jack. So, he got out of his car and started to walk.

On the walk, he talked to himself. “It’s so late, they’ll all be asleep. They won’t

like a stranger who awakens them. Since they don’t know me, why would they trust me with their jack? Maybe they don’t even have one. Why, out of meanness they’ll probably refuse to let me have their jack.” He rang the doorbell. He had talked himself into such a state that when the door was answered, he shouted, “I don’t want your silly jack anyway!”

I invite you to give every sentence this test – Would a loving God speak this to me?

This week, I invite you to join me in forming a positive words club. I encourage everyone here to commit the only speaking positively to ourselves, to others, and with each other when you come together with friends and family.

A profound difference in the way you feel and the effect that you have on others will start taking place.

I close with Luke 21:15: “For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which none of your adversities [that are inside of you] shall be able to withstand.”

God Bless You!

PRAYER / MEDITATION (place this AFTER lesson for today) __

I pray that you will pray and meditate on these words.

I will speak for you for success. My words become your words:

I now let go of worn-out conditions and worn-out things. God’s perfect Divine order is established in my mind, my body, and the situations of my life. Behold, God makes all things new. My seeming impossible good now comes to pass.

The unexpected good of God now happens. My tide of destiny has turned, and everything comes my way. The winds of success now blow to me and are my own. From North, South, East and West comes my endless good.

The Christ is now risen in my life. I follow God. I now fulfill my destiny. I am awake to my good, and I gather in the harvest of endless opportunities.

Rest in the silence of prayer and accept …

For prosperity.

I now draw from the abundance of the spheres my immediate and endless supply. All channels are free, and all doors are open in my life. My God is a God of plenty. And I now receive all that I desire or require and more. My ships come in over a calm sea, under grace in perfect ways.

I am fearless in letting money go out, knowing that God is my immediate and endless supply. Unexpected doors fly open. Unexpected channels are free. Endless avalanches of abundance are poured out upon me. Divine ideas are given to me in perfect ways.

Rest in the silence of prayer and accept …

For happiness.

I have a wonderful joy in a wonderful way. My wonderful joy has come here to stay.

Happy surprises come to me each day.

I look with wonder at that which is before me, and I give thanks for my permanent happiness, my permanent health, my permanent wealth, and my permanent love. I am harmonious, happy and divinely magnetic. I now draw to me my ships over a calm sea.

Rest in the silence of prayer and accept …

For love.

I love everyone, and everyone loves me. My apparent enemy becomes my friend right now, a golden link in the chain of my good. I am at peace with myself and the whole world. I love everyone, and everyone loves me.

Rest in the silence of prayer and accept …

For marriage.

I give thanks that the marriage made in heaven is now made manifest upon earth. “The twain shall be made one now and for all eternity.”

Rest in the silence of prayer and accept …

For health.

I deny fatigue for there is nothing to tire me. I am powered by the tireless God. I live in the kingdom of eternal joy and absorbing interests. My body is the body electric; timeless, tireless, breathless and filled with endless energy and vital wholeness.

I am a spiritual being, and my body is perfect; made in God’s likeness and image. The light of the Christ now streams through every cell. And I give thanks for my radiant health. I am undisturbed by appearances. I trust in God and God now brings to me the desires of my heart.

Rest in the silence of prayer and accept …

Nothing is too good to be true in my life because God is true. And God is with me. Nothing is too wonderful to happen in my life because nothing is too wonderful for God. I am not alone. God is with me. Nothing is too good to last in my life because God is eternal, and God is ever-expanding good in my life.

I wave these prayers over the situations of beliefs in my own mind. It is my magic wand.

Isaiah 55:11 states, “It shall not return unto me void, but shall accomplish that where unto it is sent.”

With the power of the belief in the spoken word, with the power in the belief of the teachings of Jesus Christ, the Truth of God surrounding me, and the Truth of God’s actions going through me, I give thanks. And I believe these statements of Truth about me in total faith, without doubt.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen.

Positive Daily Inspiration – July 22, 2022 – The Upright Walk In The Ways Of God

Positive Daily Inspiration - July 22, 2022 - The Upright Walk In The Ways Of God

“For the ways of the Lord are right, and the upright walk in them.”
Hosea 14:9

Today is Friday, and you have gone through another week of your life. As you review your week, there may have been some injustices that you experienced. You decide, today, to not let the appearance of the injustice override the tranquility and harmony in your life. The first act in meeting an appearance of injustice is always to place yourself and all that concerns you in God’s care and keeping. You have faith in God’s law of love and justice. You have faith that God works unceasingly in and through the minds and hearts of people to establish justice, Divine order, and harmony.

You hold your faith in God and continue to pray. Prayer helps you to remain poised and calm. Prayer helps you to remain alert to new possibilities. You know that your good comes from God, and no one or no thing can retard or restrict its flow.

In the quietness of your inner being, you affirm, in positive prayer, that God’s law of justice is working right now, unerringly, in your life and affairs. You recognize and welcome God’s law of justice. You are serene and secure knowing that what is right and just will prevail.

Jesus, in effect, said, “If you live in the Spirit of My teachings, you will become truly My disciples, and you will be freed from all your limitations through the understanding of Truth that comes to you as the result of your steadfastness.”

As a disciple of the Christ Spirit, you are an example of harmony in expression. Just as Jesus’ disciples followed the teaching and guidance of the Master, you, too, follow the guidance of God.

The Bible, in John 8:31-32, states: “If you continue in My word, you are truly My disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”

You are free to demonstrate Jesus’ teachings in every aspect of your life, especially when you are experiencing injustice.

With love in your heart, let us together give thanks to God, for the knowledge of the truth that sets us free from all injustice.

In order to witness God’s perfect plan for justice for your life, it is often necessary to learn patience. If you have reason to believe that someone has acted unjustly in your life, you learn to wait and trust God.

You remind yourself to take time before reacting too quickly to any given situation. You place your request for a harmonious outworking of any apparent problem in the hands of God. You trust and have patience. Once you have learned to be patient and to trust in the perfect outworking, you watch yourself so that you do not rehash old conditions. You loose them and let them go and know beyond a doubt that God is bringing into your existence all the necessary ingredients for justice, rightness, and order for you and everyone concerned.

You have believed and you have trusted. You will continue to do so until your desired good is made manifest. As you believe, so it will be in your life. You give thanks for patience and for the unwavering faith in your ultimate good from God that brings lasting freedom to your soul.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

I pray today that I can know You more.
I pray that I am aware of Your presence constantly.
Like a trusted friend that is always in my shadow.
I pray that I never forget Your help is at hand and waiting.
I am ready to rely upon you.
I am ready to trust more than ever before.
Thank You God for your ever-abiding presence.

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: I consciously invoke the power of God in my life. God is in complete charge of all that concerns me.

Positive Daily Inspiration – July 21, 2022 – Come to God

Positive Daily Inspiration - July 21, 2022 - Come to God

“Come to me, who know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law.”
Isaiah 51:7

To effectively put God in charge of your life and affairs necessitates an understanding of the basic truth that there is but one presence and one power in all the universe, God, the good, omnipotent.

If God is the only presence and the only power, why are there negative conditions? We must remember that humans had been given freedom of Choice and free will. Humans using the power of God determine the result by the way that they choose to use that power.

When we put God in charge of our life and affairs, we put God in command of our thoughts, feelings, and words. By our prayers, we invoke the whole power of God in our life and turn every appearance in the direction of good. The results can be nothing less than ultimate good in our life. God’s perfect Divine order takes over.

Every day we are searching for right answers and solutions for our daily needs. Nearly every one of us has unexpected circumstances to meet, and our first thought is: “What will I do about this? What is the right answer?”

We can train our minds to be open and receptive to the mind of God, and turn to God instantly when there is something that we need to do or a solution that we need to obtain to some problem. We will receive direct and inspiring ideas. We will know what to do and how to do it.

Let your mind be open as you remember your oneness with a great source of knowledge within you.

Think of yourself as filled with the Spirit of God; in all that confronts you, take the stand that you have the all-knowing mind of God working on your behalf. This gives you a direct approach to right answers, no matter what the need or situation.

Positive Prayer Affirmations for the Day (say aloud):

I decree in Jesus Christ’s name; I am in God’s perfect Divine order.
I know and feel God’s presence RIGHT NOW.
I am in Divine order, and I am serene and understanding.
I am in Divine order, so I am patient and happy.
I am in Divine order, so my body is relaxed; it quickly responds to the life-sustaining power of God.
I am in Divine order and therefore my environment is pleasant, stimulating, and satisfying.
I am in Divine order giving the right amount of my time and energy to the demands made upon me this day, never shirking responsibilities.
I am in Divine order, and I find that I have plenty to support and supply my needs.
I am in Divine order and live a good life.
I am in Divine order, and all is well with me and my world.
I place my faith in a loving God and the power of God to produce a good world.
My life is growth and unfoldment, and it is exciting and interesting growth and unfoldment.
Through prayer, I join with God and take my active progressive part in this God-directed growth and unfoldment.
I let God work through me to bring forth order and perfection in my own life.

It is so … This day … Amen.

Positive Daily Inspiration – July 20, 2022 – REPLACE ANXIETY WITH THANKSGIVING

Positive Daily Inspiration - July 20, 2022 - REPLACE ANXIETY WITH THANKSGIVING

“Have no anxiety about anything, but … with thanksgiving let your request be made known to God. And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 4:6, 7

You are not anxious about the outcome of any situation. You praise and give thanks that the right answers are forthcoming. You know that, with God, the right outcome is assured.

You are not anxious about your health. You affirm aloud in prayer – “My faith is in God’s healing life within me and I am thankful. I praise God that healing is taking place now.”

You are not anxious about the well-being of family members.

You affirm aloud in prayer – “I praise and give thanks to God that my family member (insert name) is a child of God. Guide this person and lead them in right and happy ways.”

You are not anxious about your future.

You affirm aloud in prayer – “I praise and give thanks that God has made lasting, loving provision for me and mine. Now and always, we are one with God and one with God’s good.”

Jesus said in John 14:27, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you.”

Sometimes we may feel that we could be peaceful and happy if things were different in our life – if, for instance, we had a new home or a different job, or if a family member or neighbor or a business associate would act differently. But peace of mind comes from within and is not dependent on conditions or circumstances.

Peace of mind is achieved through quiet prayer that attunes us to God, fills us with inner peace and frees us from doubts or disturbed thinking. Our mind is then open and receptive to new ideas which we can use to bring forth good results in our life.

When we make a regular practice of prayer and meditation, we look at ourselves and our life with a new vision. We no longer feel that if only some circumstance or some people were different, we could be at peace. We see the power of God at work – in the present moment, in the present circumstances – and we feel thankful and blessed.

There are times when all of us need to know that we are in the presence of God. In any need, in any kind of situation, all that we really need to be aware of, to feel peace, is to realize that God is with us.

“Thou dost keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee.”
Isaiah 26:3

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, I accept Your gift of peace. Not from outside myself does this gift come. From the innermost heart of me, Your peace is given. I feel Your peace and all anxiety is cast out. Tranquility permeates my being, soothing my emotions, and filling my mind and heart with joyous serenity.

In my world of daily events, in my relations with others, in my plans, goals, and strivings, I may at times feel frustrated, I may meet with opposition, and I may have tribulations, challenges and problems.

But when I come to You, dear God, the troubles of the outer world lose their power to distress or upset me. I fully accept Your peaceful presence and all anxiety in me is transmuted into calm. This moment is holy, for in this moment, I enter into Your spirit of peace.

Thank You, dear God, for helping me to live without anxiety. Thank You, God for Your priceless gift of peace. I shall cherish it, and I promise to share it with others.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: The peace of God infills every cell of my mind and body.

Positive Daily Inspiration – July 19, 2022 – Tuesday Prayer and Meditation

Positive Daily Inspiration - July 19, 2022 - Tuesday Prayer and Meditation

“Choose this day whom you will serve.”
Joshua 24:15

In Genesis, the book of the beginning, it says, “God created humans in God’s own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female God created them. God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth … And God saw everything that God had made, and indeed, it was very good.” [Genesis 1:27-28, 31].

Let us, during this prayer time, cast off the feeling of limitation and frustration that keeps us from being what we were created to be. Our Creator believes in us. Every creator worthy of the name believes in his or her creation.

God believes in you!

Even in the midst of your sense of separation, when you have a mistaken identity, a false sense of self, your Creator believes in you. Even in the dark night of your soul, (which is a time when all seems lost), God believes in you. Even when you fail to hear or turn away from the call of greatness that urges you to return to your Source, God believes in you.

God believes in you. God has faith in you. God believes in me. Think about that for a moment and allow it to empower you:

God believes in me.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

God has faith in you. Because God believes in you, you can believe in God’s handiwork in you. You can have faith in God’s image in you. Take heart.

Listen to the following words and allow me to speak that silent voice inside of you.

God believes in me. God has faith in me. God created me in God’s image and after God’s likeness. My Creator believes in me. God put the Divine spirit within me. God knows the stuff of which I am made, and God has faith in me. I will no longer judge with my eyes and my ears. If others lose their faith in me, and even if I lose my faith in myself, God, You never lose your faith in me. You always believe in me. God always trusts the Divine handiwork coming through me. God, I thank You for believing in me. Rest in the silence of prayer …

I am God’s creation. I believe in God as my Creator. My heavenly God and I are one- one in faith, one in belief, one in trust. A life energy is released in you as you meditate on these truths about you. The words are the leading edge of a whole new state of faith believing in and trusting in God, and in the image or individualization of God that you are.

Accept this truth about you right now, in a moment of silence in prayer …

I am filled and fulfilled by the growing realization that God has faith in me, and I have faith in God. God believes in me. I believe in God. God trusts me. I trust God. What a glorious partnership, in faith, my Creator shares with me.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

God has never left you. God has never forsaken you. God has loved you with an everlasting love. With a loving kindness, God has drawn us and awakened us. This is the revelation of the One who believes in us.

It is God’s good pleasure to give us the kingdom, not because we have worked hard to earn it or that we merit it, but because of the grace of our Creator who believes in us. Rest in the silence of prayer …

We are to love the Lord our God with all our hearts, all our souls, all our minds, all our strength, and our neighbor as ourselves. This is the natural expectation of the Creator who believes in us, and who knows the stuff we are made of. God expects us to believe in the Divine, to believe in ourselves, and to believe in our neighbor as God does.

As we close this wonderful time of prayer with God, we are to let our light shine in such a way that all who see it will know that its source is the God of light inside us and in them. This is the radiant desire of our Creator who believes in us.

In the nature of Jesus Christ, we pray … Amen.

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: I believe in the power of God’s unconditional love for me.

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE: “Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.” John Ruskin

“Come to him, a living stone … chosen and precious in God’s sight.”
1 Peter 2:4

A long time ago in a kingdom far away, there lived a young prince who had just turned 21 years of age. His name was Prince Peter. He longed so for a bride. He asked his parents, “Is it time, right now, for me to get married?”

His mother, the Queen, who was a very kindly queen said, “Yes, I guess it is. But make sure that the girl you choose is a princess – a real princess.”

So, the search began. They began looking all over the kingdom for a real princess. Many young women came to the castle, but the Queen was not interested in them because not one could prove that she was a real princess.

One day there was quite a storm that came over the kingdom. It was the type of storm where the rain came down in buckets and the lightning flashed across the sky. Out of all this sound that was going on outside, there was a tapping at the castle door.

The King and Queen looked up and asked each other, “Did you hear anything?”

Prince Peter said, “I think that somebody is outside the door.”

They opened up the big door to the castle. Standing out there was a small, soaking wet young woman. She looked up and said, “Hello. I have come because I am a real princess.”

She didn’t look like a real princess. She was soaking wet. Her clothes were just hanging on her. Her soaking wet hair was hanging down in her face.

But the Queen said, “Come in, my dear. Tonight, we won’t worry about whether you’re a real princess or not. We’re going to get you dried off. After you’ve had a good night’s sleep, we’ll decide if you’re a real princess or not.”

Then, the Queen called over the head chambermaid and said, “Do exactly as I say. I want you to put a small, dried pea right in the middle of the bed. Then, on top of that small, dried pea, I want you to put 20 of our softest feather mattresses.”

The chambermaid did exactly as she said. When the young woman went into the room after her bath, she had to look up at the bed because all of these mattresses practically went to the ceiling. (She did not know about the small, dried pea underneath them all.) So, she climbed up a step ladder and got into the center of the bed.

While she was sleeping, all the servants were busy drying and ironing her clothes. The next morning when she got up and came down to breakfast, she looked more like a princess than anyone that they had seen. She was beautiful.

The Queen looked up and said, “My dear, how did you sleep?”

The young woman said, “Well, I do not mean to be impolite, but I didn’t sleep a wink. No matter which way I turned, I felt a lump in the middle of the bed. I tossed and turned all night long.”

The Queen looked at Prince Peter and Prince Peter looked at the Queen … but he was looking more at the young princess by now. Soon they were married, and they lived happily ever after.

You’ve read this story before about the small, dried up pea in the middle of the bed and the 20 feather mattresses on top of that pea, and how no one could feel a small, dried up pea.

This is not a story about a vegetable in the middle of a bed. This is a story about something that we “think” is hidden deep inside of us. The small, dried-up pea is really a small, dried-up thought, and the old anger, or an ancient resentment.

We have tried to cover-up that thought because it initially hurt us. So, we’ve pushed it down and covered it up with layers upon layers of years. But there are still times when you’re tossing and turning all night long and you can’t sleep and you don’t even know why, but, that small, dried-up pea sized thought is still inside of you.

It’s still there, and it’s still pushing out. It’s still affecting you. You don’t really even know what it is anymore because it is has been pushed so far down, for so long.

But what is pushed down, pushes up. It is like trying to hold the beach ball underneath the water the further you push it down, the harder it tries to pop back up.

You see, we are taught early to repress thoughts. We are taught in childhood that if it really hurts us, don’t face it now; just suppress it, push it down, and it will hurt less. That is error thinking. Actually that thing bubbles up all the time, pushes out all the time, and it hurts us constantly, probably affecting our health.

Well, the princess couldn’t rest. She felt discomfort. The princess was royalty.

That’s interesting because you, too, are royalty. You may not feel like royalty because you’ve had lots of small, dried-up pea error thoughts inside of you that tell you otherwise. But you are royalty.

On what authority do I say that? On the authority of the Jesus Christ teachings.

Jesus said, “You are a child of God.” You are a king. The only thing that keeps us from accepting that fully in our awareness – is our awareness – of the small, dried-up error thoughts that are inside of us. These small, outdated thoughts make us think that we are less than we are. They make us uncomfortable during the day, and often make us toss and turn at night.

The gift of God is rest; a mental cleansing that gives a good night’s sleep. The gift of God is a confidence from deep within to allow you to do things that you wouldn’t dream that you could do.

The gift of God is that extra foundation strength that is inside of you that is firm; that you know that you can stand on when you’re facing some adversity.

All life outside of you is an echo. Remember the images of the person standing on one mountain and shouting and then the echo would come back? Well, all life outside of you is an echo of everything that is inside of you in your awareness.

Even the small, dried-up thoughts, (the old, error thoughts that we should have cleansed out long ago), are STILL in there. They have a small voice, but it comes back many times magnified over. Every thought inside of our heads is like a seed. It can grow into something that is way, way out of proportion as the years go on if we give it the power.

There is a wonderful story that author Emmett Fox talks about a big old bear going into a campground. This big old bear is hungry. He sees a cast iron pot on the fire. The lid is just dancing because of all the heat. The bear licks his chops.

He comes into the campground and puts his arms around the kettle. And interesting thing happens next. That bear is scalded and burned so badly. The normal thing to do would be to scream and to drop the kettle. But a bear’s only defense is hugging. So, as the kettle begins to hurt the bear, he does the one thing that it can do … it hugs the kettle tighter, to the undoing of the bear.

But, you know, we do the same thing. When something hurts us, we push that back down fast so that it is not in our face. In doing that, it can live inside of us to come up another day.

You know, these thoughts are like the bubbles in Seven-Up. They continually bubble up. That is the grace of human consciousness. We have the chance to deal with those thoughts again to get them, before they get us.

These thoughts will continue to come up. And as they do, we have the opportunity to eliminate them.

Let’s look to what Jesus Christ says about the inside of you and what we should do with these small, dried-up thoughts.

In Matthew 23, [verses 25-26], Jesus Christ says, “Woe to you scribes and Pharisees for you cleanse the outside of the cup and the plate, but the inside is full of extortion and rapacity [covetous]. You blind Pharisee. First cleanse the inside of the cup and of the plate, that the outside also may be clean.”

What is He talking about here? Is He teaching humankind throughout all ages how to be clean? Is He teaching humankind throughout all ages how to do dishes? No. He’s talking about the human condition and He’s talking about your mind.

He’s talking about how we go through so much time putting on our suits and ties and combing our hair and doing everything we need to do to groom ourselves, but we forget about the cleansing of our human mind. It is too very important. Truthfully, it is more important than the exterior. The exterior will take care of itself once the inside is clean.

The second part of that teaching is talking about the exterior of all of your life. We spend so much time trying to clean that up. If we cleaned up the inside of us, the whole outside would be clean.

The Bible goes on. In verse 27 [of Matthew] Jesus says, “For you are like whitewashed tombs which outwardly appear beautiful, but within they are full of dead men’s bones and uncleanliness.” We have a lot of old, dead ideas inside of us. It’s time, once and for all, to cleanse those out of our consciousness.

I’m going to share with you the same teaching, but from a different Gospel. Jesus is told that he approached this from a slightly different way, clarifying the teaching even more. [Luke 11:39-40]. “And the Lord said to him, now you Pharisees, cleanse the outside of the cup and the dish, but inside you are full of extortion and wickedness. You fools. Did not he who made the outside make the inside also?”

Often we have a person ask, what is blocking me, what is wrong? Everything on the outside can look perfect but yet there is a deep dissatisfaction that is hidden.

God can heal our bodies. But God can also heal what is deep inside of you. Pray to God to completely wash the inside of your cup. Some pray for God to heal their depression, their emotional state. Some feel in the blues today because of old thoughts that are inside churning around, God made the inside of you also and God can heal that once and for all. It’s a HUGE thing to you, but nothing to God. Just ask for and accept an inside healing.

Jesus goes on and tells us how to do it. He said, “Give for alms those things which are within, and behold everything is clean for you.”

What does it mean to ‘give for alms?’ It means to give freely. When those old things come up, instead of pushing them down because they hurt us, give up freely and let those old thoughts be gone once and for all.

When they come up we have the opportunity to examine those thoughts. We have a choice. Our choice is cleansing or pushing down again and re-polluting.

Once upon a time there was a giant Maytag washing machine as big as this room. It cleaned clothes beautifully. But when it went into the spin cycle and started to drain out its water, it pumped it back into the machine the dirty water instead of draining it out, and dirtied the clothes again with the dirty water.

We do the same with soiled memories; we have an opportunity to eliminate these old thoughts when they come up.

Old anger thoughts often push up and out as illness in the body, sluggishness and fatigue.

Thoughts occupy space; you might not think that that tiny, dried-up old thought inside of you is going to come through all those layers of the years. But they do.

A man bought a brand-new trash can for his house. He always put the trash in bags and tied them tightly.

Yet, when he opened the lid, it would almost knock him over with the smell. He couldn’t understand why. Finally, he got brave enough to stick his head in that trash can and look around. He found a little piece of rotten banana peel about the size of a dime.

You might think, “Well, I have so many good thoughts inside of my mind. But occasionally one of those old thoughts creeps up. Surely, if I push that back down and don’t deal with it, it won’t hurt the rest of the thoughts because I’m getting more good thoughts all the time.”

One small thought inside can pollute you we must also do a mental housecleaning.

You have dominion! You have dominion over every thought inside of your head. It is not the other way around. You have dominion. Take the reins of those out-of-control thoughts. Every night before going to bed, deal with the thoughts that have not been up to the Christ standard about you that day. Simply say, “NO!”

I’m going to close today’s talk with these words from Romans 12:2:

Do not be conformed to this world BUT BE TRANSFORMED by the renewing of your mind. that you may prove what is good and acceptable and perfect of God.

There were lots of other princesses that slept on that bed. They probably didn’t have a good night’s sleep either. But they didn’t want to admit it. Therefore, they didn’t get to marry the prince. We are in this life to become better on the inside; it is our hidden curriculum, but it will also reflect for all to see.

It is time to stop tossing and turning. Start enjoying life. Life is a joy. Live each day that way.

Let us pray, right now, and begin the process.

In prayer, I talk to the deep areas inside of me, seeking a renewed life through a renewing of my mind. I speak directly to any lodged error thought. To that error in our thinking, I say “I call upon God’s help to evict you.

You are welcome no more. You can no longer hurt me.”

We have imprisoned thoughts that are thieves that rob us still. To those thoughts we say: I release and let them go. To those thoughts I decree that you have vanished into nothingness.

Dear God, I ask that old embedded thoughts will come up and out so that I have an opportunity to examine each. I am now empowered and strengthened by God during this process. Old thoughts, as they come up, are disarmed

and defenseless. They have no power to hurt us.

Old thoughts are subservient to our command. We are empowered by this process. We smile again in areas of our life where we have not smiled in ages.

The process begins now. We walk with God through the recesses of our mind.

The cleansing and renewal are at hand.

We say, Thank you, God!

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen.

God Bless You!

PRAYER / MEDITATION_______________________

God is here. God is your help in every need.

Realize now, in prayer, that nothing is too small or too insignificant to merit God’s help. Most of us do not hesitate to seek God’s help in the big problems of our lives. But often we do not think about seeking God in the small and everyday occurrences.

We are here today to remember to put God first in our life. God is life, love, wisdom, intelligence, peace, order, substance and power within and around you. A problem, no matter how small or how large, is an area of life in which a greater expression of God is needed.

Rest in the presence of God in the silence of prayer …

God is the only true help and answer to our every need, no matter what it is, where it is, or when it occurs.

All of us have had days when we have felt that we got up on the wrong side of the bed. All of our activities have seemed to be out of rhythm. We have dropped things. We have rushed around accomplishing nothing.

We have blundered through these days saying, “It’s just one of those days.”

On such days, there is a need for order and harmony in our thinking, our feeling and in our acting. We need to stop, relax and turn our attention to God. We need to recognize that God is our help right now in this need, because God is perfect order.

Rest in the silence of prayer …

As we let Divine order fill our thinking, feeling and acting, our environment takes on a harmonious rhythm. By accepting God’s help in our seemingly small tasks, our day is transformed into an orderly, happy day.

Through the power of the spoken word, we decree: I AM ONE WITH GOD, AND WITH A DIVINE SENSE OF ORDER. I AM CALM AND POISED. GOD’S ORDER IS MANIFEST IN MY LIFE AND IN ALL THAT CONCERNS ME.

Accept this Truth about you now in the silence of prayer …

Proverbs 3:6 says, “In all your ways, acknowledge God and God will make straight your paths.”

No matter what need confronts you, recognize that it is a need for a greater expression of God. Then, accept. Accept God’s help that is already here.

As you accept God’s help in every aspect of your life, your life becomes orderly, joyous and productive.

Decree: I AM ONE GOD, AND WITH A DIVINE SENSE OF ORDER. I AM CALM AND POISED. GOD’S ORDER IS MANIFEST IN MY LIFE AND IN ALL THAT CONCERNS ME.

It is so. It is right. Rest in the silence of prayer …

Following Jesus Christ, we accept this as true for us right now, in our life, today.

Thank you, God … Amen.

Positive Daily Inspiration - July 18, 2022 - The Love of God is Yours

“I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore, I have continued my faithfulness to you.”
Jeremiah 31:3

NEW VIDEO – SEE BELOW

A couple who lived most of their wedded life in Hugo, Minnesota, marked their 84th wedding anniversary. Clarence Vail, 101, and Mayme, 99, hold a place in the Guinness Book of World Records for their achievement.

You have to have patience and says Mayme, to be married to the same person for over eight decades. The couple only recently moved into a nursing home. They had six children, 30 grandchildren, 101 great-grandchildren, and 40 great-great-grandchildren. They hope to celebrate their 85th wedding anniversary and beat the world marriage record set by a couple, since deceased, from Taiwan.

Human love is wonderful, and worth rejoicing and celebrating. We often count the days of its existence. How much more is the love of God.

God has never left your side, and never will.

Today is a day to be in an awareness of God’s steadfast love and care.

Through every circumstance of your life, through every stage of growth, God has provided for all your needs. God continues to care tenderly for your every need today.

God’s power moves through your body, mind, and circumstances of your life as love, light and life itself, enabling you to be blessed and to be a blessing to others.

When problems in living arise, God is there, loving you through each moment. God’s presence inspires the growth that can take place and the overcoming’s that can be obtained. All this is done in love. Remembering this, calms and strengthens your mind and heart and helps you to do what needs to be done by you. You are NEVER alone. You are with someone that loves you and will never leave you.

If there is any sense of hurry or confusion in your life, serenity can be restored with remembrance of God’s steadfast love.

God is with you right now. For this blessed assurance you give joyous thanks. You know that you can turn to God in any time, in any need, and trust God to continually love you.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, I pray that I am empowered my whole lifelong the love continuously.
I realize that as Your love comes through me, I feel it and am blessed by it too.
I pray that I’m a blessing to all that I meet.
I pray others feel my love and care.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

A woman goes into a coffee shop and notices there’s a ‘peel and win’ sticker on her coffee cup.

So she peels it off and starts screaming, “I’ve won a motor home! I’ve won a motor home!”

The waitress says, “That’s impossible. The biggest prize is a free Lunch?”

But the woman keeps on screaming, “I’ve won a motor home! I’ve won a motor home!”

Finally, the manager comes over and says, “Ma’am, I’m sorry, but you’re mistaken. You couldn’t have possibly won a motor home because we didn’t have that as a prize.”

The woman says, “No, it’s not a mistake. I’ve won a motor home!”

And she hands the ticket to the manager and HE reads … “W I N A B A G E L”

As I was packing for my business trip, my 3-year old daughter was having a wonderful time playing on the bed. At one point, she said, “Daddy, look at this,” and stuck out two of her fingers.

Trying to keep her entertained, I reached out and stuck her tiny fingers in my mouth and said, “Daddy’s gonna eat your fingers!” pretending to eat them before I rushed out of the room again.

When I returned, my daughter was standing on the bed staring at her fingers with a devastated look on her face.

I said, “What’s wrong, honey?”

She replied, “What happened to my booger?”

Positive Daily Inspiration – July 16, 2022 – Miracle Help from God

Positive Daily Inspiration - July 16, 2022 - Miracle Help from God

Jesus said, “Jesus looked at them and said, “With humans this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Matthew 19:26

Does some situation before you seem absolutely impossible?

In human mind, we need to insert God’s hyphen within that negative word to change impossible to I’m-possible!

What may be impossible to your human thinking is completely possible to God, RIGHT NOW. God knows the way, when to your human mind, there may seem to be no way. You can meet and overcome everything when you have the invincible power of God working with you.

Have you been told that some condition is incurable and hopeless?

Do not accept this prognosis. You do not give up because you still have God’s help. The life of God is present in every cell of your body, and this life flows through you in a continuous healing stream.

The truth is that God’s healing is always possible and probable.

Have you thought that some door is closed to you? Have you resigned yourself to some limitation simply because “That’s the way it is?” Do not give in to any belief that your God-good can be kept from you. You remind yourself today, that with God, all things are possible, and that the happiness and fulfillment you seek are right now seeking you. You are free to open the door to new life. You let God’s help, help you, through laying hold of the realization that God makes all things possible. This realization can transform your life and your world.

I love to take impossible situations to God. I love to see what God is going to do with insurmountable problems. It has become a very pleasurable activity for me to watch God work. I am always in awe and wonder at how God works out situations in my life and in the lives of those that I pray for, that to human mind, seem impossible.

Feeling one with God, and all that God is, helps us to be in tune with the vast spectrum of endless possibilities of life. To be in tune with the Infinite is to be in tune with God and God’s marvelous creation. It is to be in tune with God’s power and all that is good, perfect and true. It is to be in tune with the creative force that works through our minds making all things possible. It creates, re-creates, invents and builds anew.

You are carried along on currents of faith and joy. Life becomes fun again. You live in a constant state of thankfulness. You experience Divine order in all phases of your life and being — mind, body, soul and the situations in your daily life. Health and wholeness become the order of everyday. Peace becomes the primary feeling in your mind as all confusion and doubt are cast out. With God directing you, success and happiness will takeover in all that you undertake.

If something is impossible in your life, you are leaving out the power of God. God knows the answer; God knows the way; God knows the solution.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

“With God’s all-powerful help and wisdom, NOTHING is impossible to me!
I agree to work with God by casting out hopeless belief and my personal human mind concept that something can be at a dead-end.
Dear God, I ask, for Your all-powerful help of new possibilities in my life immediately.
I agree to open my mind to new belief and new hope.
I will stay open to Your guidance, and I will not refuse or argue when You tell me what to do to come to a successful conclusion.
I now know that working with You, God, all things are possible in my life.”
In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION: My God-given birthright is all the goodness of the kingdom of heaven. I am infinitely blessed.

POSITIVE DAILY QUOTE: “Aim for the moon. If you miss, you may hit a star.”
W. Clement Stone

Positive Daily Inspiration – July 15, 2022 – GOD TIME

Positive Daily Inspiration - July 15, 2022 - GOD TIME

“In everything God works for good.”
Romans 8:28

I have a clock in the office. This watch adjusts itself to radio signals from the atomic clock located in Fort Collins Colorado. It is supposedly accurate to one second every 20 million years. The clock was on sale for only $21. at Costco.

In the living room of my home, I have a family heirloom grandfather clock that is said to be worth in excess of $8000. It chimes on the hour, every hour, but it is usually off by several minutes every day. Like a human being it gets wound up and uses heavy weights to motivate it’s movement.

As expensive as that clock is, it relies on itself, instead of a higher power. It doesn’t have a choice, BUT WE DO.

We must choose between the wound-up tension of our weight and pressures of daily life, and instead rely on a higher power.

It is so important it is for the human brain to stop many times during the day align and recalibrate itself with God. Like my office clock, we receive the true and accurate signal that aligns our life and our thinking with perfection. It is easy for the human mind to sway from the standard of Christ mind. It is easy for human action and reaction to move away from God’s perfect love.

We all know people that struggled their way through every day, and they are their own worst enemy.

Sleep aligns us with God, we can go to bed at night in a semi-bad mood, and wake up being a whole new person. The last activity of your day before you go to sleep, should be to talk to God, and give your problems over to God for God to handle.

It is so easy for us to recalibrate ourselves to the Jesus Christ method of thinking and become one with God in our awareness. A mind attuned to God can do great things within the genius of creativity of Divine mind.

What a miracle your life is when it is attuned perfectly to God. You have been created in your body temple as a perfect vehicle to travel through a perfect life. With God all things are possible. Every second of every day is God’s time and miracles are continually taking place.

It is reassuring to know that the life of God is with us and within us. God’s life cleanses away all imperfection, strengthens and revitalizes every area and function of our life. The quickening, invigorating life force of God works to restore perfection in our lives. God speedily works wonders, as we realize and affirm; taking the time to go to God in prayer and allowing Divine order to adjust our thinking, feelings and actions.

If today is truly God’s time what is holding you back? Have you been wanting to stop some negative habit or start a positive one, to reconcile with a loved one or begin a new friendship? What is holding you back?

If you need more strength, then call upon the power of God to accomplish whatever it is that will bless you and bless others.

2 Corinthians 6:2 strongly states, “See, now is the acceptable time; see, now is the day of salvation.”

Do you seemingly lack the courage to do what you desire to do – to make a change, or begin something new? Not in God’s time! Never, because as a child of God there is no lack within you. When you begin to believe what is true about you, you feel courage welling up inside of you. This is God’s time and you have the strength and courage of God.

Today is God’s day, it is God’s time.

Now is the time to follow the inspiration of God urging you to live as the strong, wise, and loving person you are capable of being.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, help me today to see all people through Your vision, which is love. Help me, dear God, to look forward with great positive anticipation. Help me to feel well this day, and lead me in mind to wave after wave of well-being. Help me to see past events as past events, and help me to understand that these events are spent energy. It has come to pass and it has passed.

Dear God, I have a choice not to keep the dead past alive. With You with me, God, the best is yet to be. This morning I face a brighter tomorrow and a brighter future. I face more opportunity for happiness than ever before, and I am so grateful and thankful.

Giving thanks in advance, in Jesus Christ name, I say … Amen.
