Takeaways
- Manifestation is to have something that you desire to be seen in your physical life.
- For every Godly thing that has been created, the enemy has created a counterfeit and we have to use wisdom and discernment when we are being led down a particular path.
- The law of attraction is a new thought philosophy and belief that by focusing on positive or negative thoughts people can bring positive or negative experiences into their life.
- In the beginning of time, God spoke everything into reality such as “Let there be Light.”
- Spending time with God is important in creating a vision board, trying to make everything you put on that vision board line up with what you believe God’s plan is for you.
- When making a vision board, don’t just put things on it such as stacks of money, but also add in what you want to do once you make that money in relation to God’s plan, such as where you would want to give money.
- When we take items like crystals and put them up on a shrine, and believe that they will give us everything we want we are telling God, “I believe the crystals have the power, not you God.”
- When we are writing in a journal, we are speaking into existence what we want, which is what God told us to do. When we are asking for something, we are not suppose to beg God.
- As Christians sometimes we are told that money is bad and money is the root of all evil, but a love of money and a desire to make money is not bad. We do need to ask ourselves if our desire for money is taking us away from God.
- Sometimes it helps us further understand the message of the Bible to read different translations of the same verse.
- When we are going around saying “we are poor” we are speaking that into existence. We need to get into the mind set that “We ARE” what we want to be.
- When we are making decisions we cannot be constantly wondering “well what if..” If we are fully trusting in God we should not making decisions based off of fear.
- We need to be doing our own reading of the Bible and interpreting it, rather than just relying on a pastor to read and interpret it to us once a week.
- When we ask something of God and we feel like it is going to happen, and it doesn’t; that doesn’t mean that we didn’t pray enough, or your faith was weak. It means that God has a different plan and you can’t see it yet.
- Meditation is often disapproved by those in the Christian community, but by using apps that read us scripture we can do “biblical meditation” to help us manifest, while also bringing us closer to God.
- When we are manifesting we need to picture what we want to happen as if we are experiencing it now, thinking of what exactly is going to happen, and how it will feel in that moment.
- We need to make sure that our heart matches God’s will, a prayer could be “God remove from my heart any desire that does not line up with your plan for my life.”
- Our source is the Lord, if we do not have the word of God in our heart, it will be easier for us to be led astray.
- When we are praying for people in power we are praying that God councils them and that God’s will be done, even if we don’t agree with someone or in some cases even like them.
- We need to surround ourselves with all the things that God wants for us, joy, happiness, good thoughts. We need to pay attention to what we are thinking and realize our joy and happiness.
- We all have good and bad thoughts, we all experience happiness and sadness but when we are experiencing these things we need to question them to be able to shift out of pain and suffering into gratitude and understanding.
