One with God and The Power Within

Each day that I wake up  and before I put my feet on the ground, I give thanks and gratitude to God for allowing me to see another day.  I try to create and have a deeper relationship with my Higher power daily, sometimes moment by moment as I aspire to become one with God. Yet I find that until we awake to the fact that we are One in nature with God, we shall not find the way of life, that true peace and happiness.  Until we realize that our own word has the power of life, we will not see clearly. The Bible points out that man has the same power,  in his own life and in his own world,  that it claims for God. "The Word was with God and the Word was God", is an often repeated but little understood statement.  The promise to man is equally positive: "The word is nigh thee, even in thine own mouth that thou should know it and do it".  If any word has power, it follows that all words have power.  It means that every word which we hear, speak, or think, has some power.

With that said and comprehending  the power, we must understand the power within. Through spiritual discernment, we see that we have within us a power which is greater than anything we shall ever contact; a power that can overcome every obstacle in our experience and set us safe, satisfied, and at peace, healed and prosperous in a new light and an new life. "If God be for us who can be against us?"

God's Creative Power of Mind is right here for us/you.  We have as much of this power to use as we believe in and embody.  The storehouse of nature is filled with infinite good, awaiting the touch of our awakened thought to spring forth into manifestation in our lives; but the awakening must be within our thought!   The word that we speak is the law of our lives, and nothing hinders its operation but ourselves.  We many use this creative word for whatever purpose we desire, and this word becomes the law unto the thing for which it was spoken.  We are given the power to sit in the midst of our lives and direct their activities.  Strife and struggle are unnecessary.  We only need to know, but we must know constructively.

Just so far as we depend upon any condition, past,  present or future, we are creating chaos, because we are dealing with conditions (effects) and not with causes.  Could we but comprehend the fact that there is a Power that make things directly out of Itself?  (by simply becoming the thing It makes) . Ask yourself:  Could you/we but grasp this greatest truth about life and realize that we are dealing with a Principle that is scientifically correct and eternally present?  If we/you could , we could accomplish whatever it is possible for us to conceive.  Be careful of the words that come out of your mouth, even your thoughts. Think about someone saying their back or stomach or head is killing them, in actuality it slowly will do just that.  Or a person saying I love so and so to death instead of speaking life by saying I love that person to life. Take a look at why you are where you are, partly because of the words and thoughts you choose. Those are just some examples of the power of words.
Just remember: Life externalizes at the level of your/our thought.



May you be One with God,
Rev. Jaye
