The Most Powerful 2 Words In the Universe

The two most powerful words in the Universe are "I Am".
The Bible tells us that I AM is the very name of God.
When Moses asked God his name, I AM was the answer. That is the name of God, He is the Great I AM. God is First Cause, has always existed, indeed is all that exists outside of God. Do you realize that you and I create our reality and our lives by speaking His name a hundred times a day. That is the real meaning of "we are created in the image and likeness of God".

We identify ourselves and take ownership of an idea or condition in our lives by saying I AM. When you say, I am flat broke - you have just taken ownership of being broke and have spoken the same words God spoke on creating the Universe, so you can be sure that you will be broke! (for those of you outside the US, that means I don't have any money) You can use the I AM without actually saying the words. People like me never get ahead. People like me just seem to sail though life. The former creates struggle, lack and anger. The latter creates an easy, abundant, carefree life. Same power, used first in reverse and then forward. What will you choose?

What you think about yourself and speak about yourself can be healing or toxic to your outer reality. The I AM is a statement into the Law which always gives you what you believe and expect but not always what you want. We all want things, but the question is what do we expect? The gap between your expectation and your desire is what you lack in your life. You close the gap by expecting exactly what you want. The expectation and desire must be one and the same for it to manifest in your life. Most of us expect the worst and we are never disappointed because you always get what you really expect; what you really think you deserve in your heart of hearts. Do you want to know what you expect? Take a look at the facts of your life. Your life is a perfect mirror of your expectations.

This I AM power is a lot like electricity, which is just another manifestation of the energy of God. As the renowned motivator and teacher, Bob Proctor says: You can cook dinner with electricity or you can cook a person and we have done both in our society, on occasion. You see, electricity is neither good nor bad, it is all in how you use it. So it is with the Law of Mind Action, it is all in how you use it. Every hour of every day we are using this I AM power in forward or reverse. Contrary to what you may remember from Sunday School, God will not interfere no matter how you use the I AM power.

It is your decision and your right to use your God given power to go backwards into despair or forward into abundance and happiness. God did not make you to be an automaton; He made you to think, to reason, to feel and to choose. Remember, its your choice, but know that you have to live with the results! You are always held accountable for your use of God's powers; be it your Word - the I AM - or electricity. The secret is to know how each works, follow the rules of right use for each and be ready to live with the results of your words and actions.

I believe it is time to discuss exactly how we all create our lives, whether unconsciously or consciously. Hear this: We all create our own life experience with our Mind and its thoughts; what we allow to take root in our Mind and what we believe at the core of our being. Not one person has ever lived that is exempt from this great truth. Now you may not be aware that you are creating your life with your use of I AM and the Law that operates it, but in your subconscious mind lay the seeds of your immediate and distant future. What you have allowed to enter in to your subconscious, the ideas and beliefs you were taught or chose to buy into, are reflected in your daily life- your reality is merely a mirror of your thinking and believing.

What this means is that NOTHING in your life was created outside of you! You chose your relationships, you chose to explore new places or to stay where you were born, you chose the job you have, you chose to be educated or not, you chose your beliefs, attitudes and behavior. I know it often seems that life comes to you from the outside in, but in Truth Life flows from you and comes into form through you as your outer reality. Be very grateful for this, because if it were not so, you would be a powerless victim begging God to save you, to help you. You have the power and responsibility to help yourself - with the help of God's inspiration and constant help. We sometimes call this the Spirit Within or the Holy Spirit.

As the Bible says so simply: "As within, so without". Again Jesus said: "As a man thinks in his heart of hearts (that is your subconscious mind), so he is". The most important lesson Jesus ever taught is in that passage. In that one phrase the secrets of the Universe are hidden. We are thoughts in the Mind of God and your life reality is the sum total of the thoughts and beliefs in your mind. Your mind is different from the Mind of God only in scale. Both work in the same way. We often block our desires by allowing our Ego to constantly try to get into the driver's seat of our lives and put God into the back seat - this you must never allow.

You may say Dore', what about areas of the world that are in turmoil, in poverty or wracked with disease? Did they choose to be this way? Certainly not consciously! I don't believe any sane person wants to suffer with poverty or disease. These things happen by a lack of understanding that our personal reality is just the collective reality in microcosm. Without knowing the Law and how to use it consciously to create the life you want, you abdicate control and let your subconscious take over your life creation. Just as the individual creates their life with their thoughts and speaking, so a nation or a people create the collective life of their country with the attitudes, thinking and choices they make or allow to be made for them.

All things great and small operate by the same Divinely Ordained Law. As you or I think, so we are. God, the individual human and an entire nation. all create reality the same way. By use of the I AM power. In the beginning was the Word, as John describes the birth of all Creation. The Word is the birth of your personal reality. Watch carefully what words you think and speak!

A good example of the I AM (IT IS) power used in reverse is the present economic slowdown in the United States. The financial press began braying frantically about a looming recession and that the "bubble had to burst" long before it did. The "experts" who helped cause the "bubble" in the first place, now created a climate of fear guaranteed to create a recession. Nationwide fear set in. When people become fearful and lose their optimism, they stop spending, business stops investing in new factories and products, less is sold, so less is produced, which then produces layoffs and job loss. The "experts" expected a recession, we all listened to them and we got what we expected because we bought into their fear.

Fear is poison to people, to nations and to economies. What would have happened if everyone had gone on as if all was well and bought that new car, took that vacation, bought that new RV? That's right, no recession! It is the persistent negative use of IT IS (a form of the I AM) that has caused the apparent slowdown we now face. Ignoring the IT IS and returning our lives to a normal level of consumption and optimism will cure all this in a matter of weeks, if we have the will to do it. The recession, if it is such, all came about through the collective consciousness and a change in the collective consciousness is the only cure for this condition. Most people have no conception of the phenomenal power of thoughts and words. Thoughts, words and the choices they give birth to literally create the world we live in.

Let's bring it down you your life right now. How can you use the I AM power to create the life you want and deserve? Never again say I AM or IT IS unless the words that follow is what you want to experience. Refuse to own things that you do not want in your life. Yes, your present reality may be that you have no money but the minute you say, I AM poor you take ownership of your poverty, plant the seed of permanent poverty in your subconscious and you will be poor unless you replace this belief with a new I AM. Illness and disease also comes about by a negative use of the I AM and can be cured by replacing the belief in disease with a belief in perfection and wholeness.

What should you do if you have an negative or unhealthy belief still lodged in your Mind. Replace it with the image of what you want. A lower thought cannot exist in the presence of a higher one. You must intercede before the negative idea takes up residence in your subconscious.

We reason with our conscious mind but create our lives with our subconscious. Guard the door to your subconscious mind like a sentry guarding a treasure. Your mind is your treasure. We would not purposely poison our bodies; why do we daily poison our minds? Begin by turning off the news broadcast. Little of good report is ever heard on these broadcasts. How does knowing all the bad in your town or your country help you? Can you do anything about it but worry, get into fear and thus shut down your happy life?

Begin today to monitor what you take into your subconscious. Make sure when you say I AM that it is what you want to become or have in your life. Sounds easy - it may well be the hardest thing you will ever learn. The rewards are empowerment, Heaven on Earth and the peace of Unity with God. You deserve all the Good your heart can hold.

Don't wait another day to start the transformation of your life by the renewal of your mind.

May God Bless and Keep you well, happy and at peace.

Winners and Losers

What makes one person always seem to be on the winning side of life while another always seems to miss the brass ring - never seems to get a "break"? Oh, I know that we like to say that there are no winners or losers in life and, to an extent, that is true. We all end up the same place and we all have to die first to get there!

However, we all know people that have a life journey filled with fun, abundance, health, joy, adventure, love, challenges met, growth and learning. Others have a life of struggle, sorrow, boredom, failure, illness, poverty and never enough of anything. Is it because God favors some and turns Her face from others? Not my God! One of the hardest things for us to "get" is that God never plays favorites any more than you favor one finger over the other. You are to God as the fingers of your hand are to you. Each unique and separate, yet part of the whole.

Some say that life is a giant lottery where some get the breaks and most are doomed to defeat and lack. This reduces life to a cosmic dice throw! My response is baloney! This explanation is the explanation of a loser who needs to place blame outside himself for his failure. Winners know better. Here's the Truth of the matter according to Dore'.

All of us were given the keys to the Kingdom of God long before we were born. God has known us and loved us for eons of time before the date of our physical birth. We have always lived and will never really die. The body may wear out but our minds, our essences live on. We are of royal blood, we are the dearly beloved of the most high God!

Each of us was endowed by our Creator with talents, desires, attributes that are unique to us. We are all given the tools for an abundant life. Not all of us are beautiful; not all are smart; not all are witty; not all are physically strong, but all of us have the seeds of our success hard wired into our very soul. We all have the opportunity to shine but few do shine. Why? Because we just don't know the winning secret and often when we hear it we refuse to believe that it can be that simple! Those with ears to hear and eyes to see, here it is:

Your outer life experience is merely a reflection of your inner self. You will never see success, joy, abuandance and health if you expect poverty, illness and sorrow. What you believe in, what you expect, you get! If you feel that you are unworthy - you will project unworthiness and will not be able to receive what God has put there for you. If you believe that life is full of illness and that "germs" wait around each corner to lay you low, then you will spend a great deal of time sick. You are sick inside long before your outer body becomes ill!

Yes, science does tell us that germs carry disease but why are some people always sick and some almost never sick living in the same house, going to the same school, working in the same place? Because they are different inside, therefore the outside is different. They expect differnt outcomes and they get them. Here is a story that illustrates the "loser" consciousness very clearly.

I have a friend who owns several rental properties and over breakfast he told me a story that illustrates just what we are discussing. One of his tenants was unable to pay his rent and after several extensions was still unable to meet his obligations. My friend had to ask him to vacate the home but knowing that this man needed cash to find a new place he did something I have never known a landlord to do before. He told his tenant that if he left the property clean and in good condition that he would receive $1,000 cash upon leaving the property. My friend was going to pay his tenant to do what he should have done in any event - as a way of helping him get on his feet. The tenant seemed pleased by this bargain.

What do you think happened? Did our wayward tenant get the cash? Here was $1,000 cash on the table ready for him and all he had to do was clean the place up! Would you have taken my friend up on his offer? I would have! In fact, I told my friend that I would be pleased to clean any of his properties for $1,000!!

Our tenant left the property a mess- so filthy that it was shocking. This is a losing attitude. Someone tries to help you turn a bad situation into a win and you cannot muster enough character and common sense to get the broom and mop out and do what you know you should do. Instead of leaving in good graces with a decent reference and cash in pocket, this fellow has nothing; no self respect, no place to live and no money. Whose fault is that? Why do you think the man acted this way? What would you have done in his place?

The cause of this failure lies with the tennant not being able to get beyond his ego and his sense of fear, hurt and anger and to see the great gift that he was being offered. Rather than say, Gee thanks, that is very decent of you and then clean like crazy, he dove into victimhood and made the whole affair someone else's fault. He failed to take responsibility for his actions - the non payment of rent. He failed to see that he created this whole scenario and that if he wished to do so, he could salvage some good out of it.

He could not imagine taking the high road, doing what he knew he was obligated to do, so he went down the well hewn path of the loser and, indeed, lost again. Of course I am certain that this incident just re-inforced his belief that nothing good ever happened to him, why did God allow this, why was he a born loser?

Now what about the winning consciousness?

Here are the five main characteristics of a sucessful person - a winner:

1. Takes responsibility for his own actions (not blame - responsibility) Once you realize that your life is YOUR creation, then you are in control and can create whatever life you want.

2. Does what he says he will do in all cases. His word is his bond. He can be depended on. As part of this, he is wise in what he promises and never over committs or over promises.

3. He gets it done, on time and well. Does not procrastinate or sluff off obligations. He eats the big frog first, as Rev. Edwene Gains so aptly puts it.

4. He is modest and builds up those around him, giving praise to all who made his success possible. He is grateful to God from whom his talent, strength and very life comes, and for all he has in life. He knows that we are all One in God and he is a team player.

5. He cares nothing for being "right" or fixing blame but focuses on the job to be done - on what he wants to happen and then gets it done!

As you are inside - so will be your life outside. You are rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic of your life if you believe that outward changes will bring a changed life. All change comes from within, just as all that is created comes from the Mind of God.

Are you ready to be a "Winner"? The loser in you must die and you must give birth to a new you. You must change the whole way you do business in this life. You must rebirth yourself by means of a transformation of your Mind into the winner you were created to be. Can you change? Will you change? Need help? Request a prayer or e-mail me and I will help.

Remember, you have the greatest power in the Universe at your disposal: The indwelling God himself.
