Pathway to the Power Within

(enemy within) and never receive the bountiful harvest God wishes for them. 

DO NOT FORGET.  .  .  GOD KNOWS OUR LIMITATIONS AND THAT WE CAN NOT MAKE IT ALONE .  .  .  SO HE PROVIDES MENTORS AND ANGELS IN OUR LIVES AT DIFFERENT TIMES OR STAGES SO WE HAVE THE PROTECTION AND ENCOURAGEMENT THAT WE NEED. 

The Bible says, there is a season for everything.  Abram was almost 100 years old when he and Sarah gave birth to their first son.  There is usually a period of waiting or preparation, which may be considered a period  of delay, not denial, after God's promise has been made. 

However, do not feel because the Bible says everything in due season, that every promise should take forever to come to pass.  If we keep letting the proper season pass us by, over and over again, the fruit and crops may rot on the tree or vine and when we finally go to get our harvest, it may be too late.  The harvest is great but the workers are few, the Bible says.  I believe that is because people are unable to be like Abram and hold on to their love sponsored thoughts and the negative thoughts win out.  Don't be too late for your harvest, move, MOVE physically, mentally, psychologically, spiritually and move in FAITH, trust, and belief that if God is speaking to you it will be there and it will be yours.  It will be as it was for Peter and the fishermen after they believed, trusted, and put their faith in God's command to drop their nets in the deep waters after they had fished all night the way they usually fished and caught nothing.   Read from the Gospel of John 21:1-6 in the Bible.  You know, those fishermen took care of their nets, it was what their livelihood depended upon.  Those nets almost never broke.  The harvest that God gave them for believing in Him and risking, was so great, even those nets could not contain it!  The boat almost sank!  That is how our harvest will be also!!!

THERE ARE FOUR STEPS TO CLAIM YOUR POWER:

1.  PRAYER (turn your mind to God)

2.  OBEDIENCE (which will put order in your life)

3.  WISDOM (which we get from reading and studying the Word of God)

4.  REPENTANCE (admitting our weaknesses to God - then we can be transformed)

Being prosperous with regard to money, does not have the same meaning as the prosperity you will acquire when you receive the Harvest that God has planned for you.  The harvest that God has for you is your mission and purpose for your life.  It will give you peace even in the midst of turmoil and suffering.  You learn that joy is not the absence of pain, but the presence of God.  You will understand love as not the Hollywood 'happy ever after love'  .  .  .  but love of yourself because you will see yourself as a child of God.  You will then know that all that is His is yours.  This wonderful knowledge can not be taken from you by anyone because when realized, it is secure forever in your hearts.

To obtain a sense of prosperity in the area of money, Sarah Ban Breathnach from Simple Abundance, suggests when you pay your bills, pay them with GRATITUDE.  There's that Gratitude again, that life changing quality.  She says to create an atmosphere when you pay your bills in which you Thank God for each one as it is paid.  Put each in its envelope and send it away or hand the amount owed to whomever necessary to pay for "services rendered".  If we hold on to grateful thoughts, she says, we concentrate on what we HAVE which includes the money   to pay bills for "services rendered" as well as all the other things we talked about, such as our health, intelligence, energy, life, children, boyfriend, husband, family, friend, God.  And the "Principal" will hold true, when we are grateful for what we have, we will receive more.
