Lessons in Prosperous Living - Part Three

There is no place in all the Universe where substance is any more present or any less present that right where you are. - Eric Butterworth

When I have talked with some people about their prosperity, or lack there of, they sometimes talk as though substance was just about everywhere but where they are.

It is a common belief, especially when a person is experiencing a "lack attack," that they are somehow cut off from the divine flow of substance. And too often, they are not aware of divine substance as the prospering energy that is actually their supply. (Money is the name we usually call substance.)

Often, too, they tend to judge by appearances as they look at their bank account total, or what they seem to have or do not have. Especially their attention is on what they seem to lack. It's like looking at the hole instead of the donut.

This is an error in that Universal substance flows into the mold which is made with the mind. We live in a very friendly, all-providing Universe and its natural tendency is to give us what we hold in mind regardless of what that is. It is wise, then, to hold thoughts and images of abundance, to have a rich consciousness.

This may seem difficult to do in the face of apparent lack, but the quicker this can be done, the better. Eric Butterworth said, "The important thing is to hold to the awareness that you are created in substance, formed of substance, and ceaselessly supported by substance.The free flow of substance in your life is the continuation of the divine effort that made you in the first place."

The golden key to living prosperously is to get so intimately acquainted with Divine Substance to the point that you absolutely know that you live in a sea of it. Therefore, you know you are always richly and abundantly provided for, and you are. It is nothing less than Love at work! - Lovingly, Rev. John

Positive Prayer: I live in a sea of Divine Substance and I am always richly and abundantly provide for. Thank You, God, I am grateful!

Bytes of Wisdom. . .

Old age is not a time of life. It is a condition of the body. It is not time that ages the body, it is abuse that does. - Herbert Shelton

You learn something everyday if you pay attention. - Ray Leonard

Even in the most dire situation when our outlook is bleak, God remains our Creator, Sustainer, and Source. Our work is to acknowledge God as the source and to awaken to the Presence. - Jim Rosemergy

The substance that has in the past been manifested in our affairs is still here. It is the same substance and it cannot be taken away. - Charles Fillmore

A Little Humor. . .

If a golfer gets hurt and can't play, is his replacement called a designated driver? - George Siegel

Halfway through his sermon, our minister grew quite nervous. Profundity, we knew, was nigh. "Do you know what the three most discouraging words in the English language are?" he asked. A congregant did. He yelled out, "Some assembly required." - William F. Christiansen

'Unexpected' Income Working for Her! - I must say that since I read your 'Unexpected' Income* book three days ago and began using the Prayer-Treatment, God is already blessing me. It is soooo awesome! I received a bonus from my job and I have only been there six months. Also, I received a stock dividend check.

I prayed about the chapter in your book about tithing. I had been tithing to my church, but not the whole ten percent. After praying about it, I made a decision to give my whole ten percent and trust that 'unexpected' income is mine to have.

Every night I declare: "My giving makes me rich." I also placed an affirmation on my checkbook cover which reads: "As money goes out, more money comes in." Thank you for your goodness and love for all of us. Keep up the good work and be blessed every day. - A. F. in Georgia
