What Is In The World Of Your Imagination?

Today we'll talk about your thoughts and imagination.You might have read from my previous posts about this.I feel that it's very important that we guard and control whatever that goes into our mind,as well as what goes on inside.

I would like to share 3 stories of how God is related to your imagination...............How can you get your prayers answered................like these 3 persons............

The first man got the job he desired after many years of being passed by.
The second lady found her Mr Right after being married and divorced 4 times.
The third man cleared his debt super-naturally.

If you are in any of the above situations,I hope you will break free after reading the stories.

I'm quoting all these from Neville Goddard.I think his writings are great.Without further delay,sit back and enjoy................

Can you believe your desire is fulfilled?Can you believe it is true?If you can,it is yours for the taking,for nothing is impossible to one who believes.

Now,let me share with you three stories which came to me during the summer.The first letter was from my friend Bennie.In it he told of lying prone on his bed,face down,when he felt as though someone grabbed his shoulders;and as he was lifted up he heard the words:"Take a stand!"Intuitively he knew he had to make the decision now as to whether he was going to believe that imagining creates reality or disbelieve it.

Scripture tells us,"He who is not with me is against me."There is no neutral ground,for "I have not come to bring peace,but a sword.To set a man against his father and a daughter against her mother."Why?Because a man's enemies are within him.Everyone must eventually take the stand that imagining creates reality and swim or sink with this concept.

Now,a few days later while in meditation,Bennie felt himself being held from behind by three men.As they raised him,he watched the sun rise and heard the words:"Look!Behold!" and "Recognition!" And he remembered a passage from my book,Your Faith Is Your Fortune:"Recognition of this truth will transform you from one who tries to make it so,into one who recognizes it to be so."

Soon after this,a friend asked Ben to pray for him.He wanted to be the property manager of the company he worked for.Although he has been passed by year after year,Bennie told him what to do,and imagined hearing the friend tell him the job was now his.A few months later the job was vacated and his friend was given the position with an increase in salary and greater responsibility,just as he had imagined.What did Bennie do?He imagined!To whom did he pray?To his own wonderful human imagination!God,the creator of all life,is like pure imagining in you,underlying all of your faculties - including perception.He streams into your surface mind least disguised in the form of productive fantasy.Bennie took a stand.He prayed for his friend and believed his prayer was answered.He tested himself,and the windows of heaven opened and poured forth blessings for all to see.Now Bennie knows that with God all things are possible.

God is your mightier self.Emptying himself,God took on the form of a slave and is now found in the likeness of man.Abdicating his power,Pure Imagination took upon himself the limitations of flesh,thereby becoming human.It is God who weaves your every desire into cubic reality,waiting upon you effectively and swiftly,regardless of whether your desire is for evil or for good.The one who conjures thoughts in the mind of a Hitler or Stalin is the same power as the one conjuring thoughts in the mind of a pope or Arch Bishop of Canterbury.There aren't two Gods.There is only one!

The 14th and 53rd chapters of the Book of Psalms are identical,each telling us:"The fool says in his heart there is no God,but the Lord looks down from heaven upon the children of the many to see if there are any that act wise and seek the Lord."Here we find that in the eyes of God,wisdom is equated with seeking the Lord.And if God is all-wise and all powerful,then any search other than for the Lord is stupid.You may be the world's greatest mathematician or scientist,the most intelligent and honoured man among men,but if your search if not for God,you are stupid in His eyes.

Called upon to look for the cause of creation,what are you doing losing yourself in the phenomena of life?When something happends,search your thoughts and you will discover your own wonderful human imagination to be the cause of your experience,because God is a person.At the present time He is wearing a mask called Neville,but the one speaking to you now knows himself to be the Ancient of Days.Every being in the world is a mask worn by God;for housed in man,is man's imagination.

A thought acted upon is an imaginal act.Think(imagine) a horrible earthquake and God will give it to you.Imagine(Think of) a war and God will provide that,too.Imagine peace and you will have it.God will give you health is you imagine being healthy.Imagine success and you will have it.The moment you think,you are feeding your imagination,which is a person.I use the word person delibrately,for you are a person.You are the mask God is now wearing,for God became you that you may become God.

Now let me share another letter with you.Last year this lady,living about sixty miles north of San Francisco,was possessed with the desire to come to Los Angeles and attend my lecture.Leaving word at her office,she drove her car to the San Francisco Airport,where she took a plane to Los Angeles.There she was met by a friend and immediately came to the lecture.After the lecture she joined a group of four women and one man for coffee,where she expressed her hunger,having missed lunch and dinner that day.The gentleman sitting beside her then said,"I'd like to buy you a steak."And as she looked into his face she heard a voice within her say,"This is your husband."

Now,this lady has been married and divorced four times,so she had specific desires for a husband which she felt must be fulfilled.She wanted to be happily married to a man who lived by this truth.She wanted him to love and respect her as well as her seventeen-year-old son.Having imagined such a man in September,she attended my meeting in October,and married the gentleman she met here the following January.

The gentleman added his story to her letter,saying:"Having played with the idea of being married,I went to a pawn shop last September and purchased a plain gold band which I placed on the third finger of my left hand.Every day I wore the ring and every night I slept in the feeling of being happily married.(My friend thought he could not get the feeling of being married without a physical aid,but you don't need anything outside of your imagination to catch the mood.)

Having been an alcoholic,this gentleman imagined his wife never mention his past;for although he had not tasted alcohol for nine years,he had paid the price in his search for God.You see,the alcoholic is searching for truth.Thirsty,he finds a false spirit in the form of alcohol,while those who will not touch it - and criticize those who do - haven't even started their search.

But I have news for them.One day,they,too, will know a hunger which will not be satisfied by bread.They will know a thirst so great they will make the mistake of clothing it in the form of a bottle.But because it will be a false thirst,the thirst will remain.Then they will discover the true hunger and the true thirst,which is for the hearing of the word of God.

Now,in the third letter a gentleman writes:"Having borrowed from the bank,every month when I send in my payment I reduced the total amount in my record book.One day,as I was writing my check and recording its payment,I closed my eyes and saw two zeros under the balance due column.Then I gave a sigh of relief because the note was paid.For the next three months I persisited in seeing those double zeros and rejoicing in being debt-free.Then came an unexpected suprise!Our company paid us all a mid-year bonus which was so large I was able to pay all of my bills,including the bank loan,and deposit the rest in the bank."

Now I think this gentleman and I must be two peas in the same pod,because money seems to burn in his pocket,too.Instead of keeping the money in the bank as the rational mind would do,my friend began to think about how to spend it,so of course he found a way.He bought a tape recorder to bring and record my message!

To whom did my friend turn when he wanted the bank loan paid?He turned to God!He did not get down on his knees to ask someone outside God to do it for him.He didn't go to church and consult a priest,rabbi or minister.He didn't contact a so-called truth teacher,but simply closed his eyes to the obvious and saw two zeros in the balance due column.Then for the first time in the history of his company,a mid-year bonus was paid.This happended to him because of his use of the law,and his knowledge of who God is.

End Of Stories...............

I hope you have gained some insight on how to make sure your prayers are answered.I have learnt a few things from the stories above.I noticed a trend,all those desires seemed to take around 3 months to fulfill.

It's all about controlling the world of your imagination.I wish you godspeed in manifesting the life you desire to live!!

It has been a while since I wrote about daily happenings........well,I am very busy nowdays,with my web business up.I got many things to attend to because I am in the setting up stage.I managed to get a loan to go to Penang for Patric Chan's workshop.Praise God for that!

Today I was pretty surprised that my mum told me to go with her to Duman Road Food Center,my aunt(her elder sister) was giving us a treat.I was happy to go along,because I was feeling pretty hungry.

Let me tell you about my eldest aunt,she and her husband are people that I respect from the bottom of my heart.I respect them because of their character.Even though they are not that well to do,they are very generous people.I'm really glad to see them blessed.

I take my hat off to my aunt,she's the one giving the treat today,and yet she took the effort of helping me order drinks when I reached the food center.You see,I could have done it myself.Since she's the one treating,I find it very unfair to let her go and order for me.I could walk there myself and order,but she insisted.

I do feel bad about it.I admire her because she's sincere about giving a treat.She takes the trouble to even order the food and bring the food over(self-service).Not only that,she knows that I love to eat meat,she kept asking me whether I was ok with the food she ordered,do I want to order something else?

Well,she could have said that since she's paying,I should eat whatever she orders.And I think if she does that,she's right.After it's her right.But she didn't.I will definitely pay her back for what she did.

Normally,I hate it when I'm in the midst of eating and people make me go and order food or drinks.But if it's for her,I will willing do it voluntarily without being asked to.Now I understand why her daughters and her sons-in-law respect her so much.

I think she's a good example in this area for me to follow.

We had a filling dinner.We had Steamed Fish Head In Hong Kong Style,Pork Ribs With Black Beans,Popiah,Braised Duck and Wanton Mee.It was a great meal,even though the chili of the Wanton Mee is super HOT.I was literally drenched in sweat.

I walked home with my mum after that,but we were too tired,so we took a bus halfway.It was a great outing.

I'm going to continue with other stuff after relaxing for a while.............take care and I'll see you again tomorrow.God bless.
