Making the Invisible, Visible.

Making the Invisible, Visible.

Making that which is not seen – seen
Creating something out of “seeming nothing”. I purposely use the words “seeming nothing” because Creation is God making something out of itself by becoming the thing.

As Ernest Holmes explains it, Creation does not mean making something out of nothing, but means the passing of Substance into form...
Creation gives form to the Substance of Mind.

In other words thoughts become things & experiences.

We all have the power of thinking even if we are not aware of the fact that our thinking is creating,we are still utilizing this Divine power to create and are Indeed Creating!

The good news is that you got yourself here this morning and now can utilize this information to ...Create the Life you want!

The structure for creating works for us like this.
There is always first an Idea. Then as we put our focus and attention on this Idea whatever we are choosing at the particular moment, it can be illness or health, it can be prosperity or poverty, it can be attracting or repelling, God is not judging the offering, it simply acts on it and begins processing the order you have just placed.
It simply starts to give you back what you have put into it. It takes on form and comes into your field of experience.
Making the Invisible, Visible..

 

As Ernest Holmes says Everything originates in God
One of the most important things for us to remember is that we are always causing something to be created.
The question then becomes are we producing the effects (or creating the things) we desire to experience?
If it is true that As a man thinks in his heart so is he!
Or as Neville says: The law of word never overlooks an inner word nor makes the smallest allowance for our ignorance of its power. It fashions life about us as we; by our inner conversation fashion life within ourselves.”
Here's how to tell if what you are thinking is creating something you would probably want to experience later. FEELING! How do you feel when you are thinking that thing? When you are interacting with a certain person, or watching a certain program on television?

Does whatever you are focusing on make you feel enthusiasm, love, peace, happy, empowered, encouraged,motivated, optimistic or is it making you sad, angry, fearful, resentful or suspicious?

If it is making you feel anything other than what we humans may consider “good” at the time, then do yourself a favor, do the world a favor and change the channel. Change the channel in your mind the same way you would pick up the remote and change your television or radio if either were not broadcasting what you are wanting to hear at the time.

It is the same with our thinking, we must take control of our minds and simply change our focus to something that is more life affirming and supportive of what we want!


So it is that every thing, every condition, every event that ever transpired was first an Idea in the mind. It was by desiring, by thinking and by speaking forth the Word, that these ideas came into visible manifestation.

Now you could not have sold this idea to me for a penny on Friday afternoon when the back up copier broke down ; while we waited for the copier guy for the main copier to come; who then called to say he wasn't coming; and that he couldn't get the part we need for at least 2 weeks; who then had the audacity to sound as if I was holding him up from his weekend plans....Not to mention I had dinner plans with my Husbands family. His Parents were Celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary and their only grandson and only daughter-in law were stuck here trying to print and put together todays bulletin. I mean you could not have made me believe I had anything to do with that by my thinking cause I really wanted to get home.

However, today with hindsight being in place I realize that we now have a bulletin that I actually prefer. To me the old one always seemed bulky and an unnecessary waste of paper.

It was that Idea, right there the one about “bulky waste of paper” that had been my dominant thought.

I had unconsciously and consciously thought this repeatedly; which then got played out on Friday AS THE EXPERIENCE OF...all copiers malfunctioning in someway at the same time, the part necessary to fix the main copier being unavailable and a service guy that was totally unconcerned.

Do you see how even in the tiniest details by repeatedly thinking and speaking a thing creates the thing. Now that wasn't my most optimal experience of how to create a different bulletin, however, I wasn't making any conscious effort to make the desired change I was seeking; and so , the Universe (GOD) went to action giving me my thought, giving me my idea... as experience. Making the Invisible...Visible

And Voila ....We have a new Bulletin Today!

AMEN

Gregg Braden Article Here:

There is this amazing and wonderful Divine substance of the Universe. That everything is made of and out of this stuff, this substance everything that will be made is also made of. It is just waiting to pour itself into the mental mold we give it. Ernest Holmes called these mental equivalents.

When the word is spoken either silently or audibly, consciously or unconsciously, this substance at once begins to materialize itself, by first directing and controlling the consciousness and all the activities of both the mind and body of the thinker and then all the minds and all bodies connected with or related to the Idea.

(Do you see how the copiers, the manufacturer who makes the parts, the warehouse which houses and ships the parts, the copier service guy all were effected by my thinking of having a “smaller less bulky bulletin”)

Listen! You have now and always have had this power of thinking. Now all you have to do is use this Power for Good! Knowing that God, the substance of all that is, is in this very moment moving heaven and earth; moving all things to bringing you the results.

God the consciousness of the invisible cells of all matter upon which your will and attention become focused is immediately, simultaneously, instantaneously and consistently saying yes to the demand you have placed upon it.

I encourage you today to begin right now only putting in the stuff you really want to get back.
Thinking causes action, action produces results!
Every real desire you feel, every desire of your heart comes from God and must of necessity in sometime, in some shape or form be fulfilled.

God is being about what you are thinking about; so that it can be brought about into your experience.
When you get clarity and realize that God, that I AM consciousness within you is one with the consciousness of all animate and inanimate matter and that It's will is ultimately for your Good. You have got it made!
Then I invite you to frequently offer “ The Rampage of Appreciation” talked about in the book “Ask and It is Given”
In the Rampage of Appreciation you actually set your vibrational frequency to one of allowing what you have asked for into your experience. You have been asking, in every day of your experience and Source (God) has answered, without exception. Now in your mode of Appreciation, you are in the practice of receiving... you are letting it in. You Are Consciously Creating Good!
Here is a few examples of how this Rampage of Appreciation works:

You are standing in line at the post office, you may think:
This is a very nice building
It's great that they keep it so clean
I like how friendly that postal worker is
I appreciate the way that that mother is interacting with her child
That's a good-looking jacket
My day is really going well


Or while driving to work, you may think:


I love my car
This new freeway is wonderful
Even though it's raining, I'm making very good time
I love how reliable my car is
I'm grateful for my job

 

DO you feel the implications of this. Do you see how this has the potential to set everything up to hold a more joyous outcome.

I really want to encourage you today to walk in gratitude and appreciation for what you do have. Be grateful for the little things as well as the big, There is no size in the Mind of GOD.
