Prosperity's 12 Affirmations

Throughout our experiment with abundance, our primary consideration has been the role of consciousness regarding our experience of abundance and prosperity. The Abundance Principles draw our attention to the Divinity within us as our access to the Source. Today we consider the 4th Abundance Principle in conjunction with Prosperity’s 1st Affirmation. What experiences have you had over the last 30 days regarding these principles and affirmations?

John Randolph Price’s 4th Abundance Principle:

Through my consciousness of my God-Self, the Christ within, as my Source, I draw into my mind and feeling nature the very substance of Spirit. This substance is my supply, thus my consciousness of the Presence of God within me is my supply.

Prosperity’s 1st Affirmation:

1.    I look to God as my only Source of Supply.

I am the living expression of Spirit and I look to God’s Presence within me as my only Source of Supply in all of It’s forms.

neither will they say, ‘Look, here!’ or, ‘Look, there!’ for behold, the Kingdom of God is within you.” – Luke 17:21

This is the 3rd time that you have contemplated the 1st Abundance Principle. How is it different for you? How do you look to God as your only Source of wealth and supply? Is this different than day one? Are you more conscious of God as lavish abundance always present?  What intention can you set for the next 10 days with regard to prosperity or abundance?

John Randolph Price’s 1st Abundance Principle:

God is lavish, unfailing Abundance, the rich omnipresent Substance of the Universe. This all-providing Source of infinite prosperity is individualized as me – the Reality of me.

Prosperity’s 1st Affirmation:

1.    I look to God as my only Source of wealth.
I am faithful to the Principle of Abundance in action within me; I look to God within me as the only Source of my wealth and supply; I have access to all I need.

“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?
Matthew 6:25-26

You have probably noticed that you will be considering this Abundance Principle 4 times. This is your second time processing the 10th Principle, how is it different for you now? If you do not relate to it any differently this time, what will need to shift for you to expand your perception so you can grow with each future consideration of the abundance principles?

John Randolph Price’s 10th Abundance Principle:

I keep my mind and thoughts off “this world” and I place my entire focus on God within as the only Cause of my prosperity. I acknowledge the Inner Presence as the only activity in my financial affairs, as the substance of all things visible.  I place my faith in the Principle of Abundance in action within me.

Prosperity’s 1st Affirmation:

1.    I look to God as my only Source of wealth and supply.

I shift my attention from the world of effects and I look to God within me as the only Source of my wealth and supply.

The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it -Proverbs 10:22

Today consider identifying with the Divine Consciousness within you as who you really are and examine your access to this Consciousness as your Source of supply.

John Randolph Price’s 7th Abundance Principle:

The Divine Consciousness I Am is forever expressing its true nature of Abundance. This is its responsibility, not mine. My only responsibility is to be aware of this Truth. I am totally confident in letting go and letting God appear as the abundant all sufficiency in my life and affairs.

Prosperity’s 1st Affirmation:

1.    I look to God as my only Source of wealth.

I am aware, I understand and I know the Divine Presence I AM;
I look to God within me as the only Source of my wealth and my supply
in all of its forms including money.

Read 2 Corinthians 9:8

Welcome to Day 1 of the the 40 Days of Abundance.  We are starting with the 1st Abundance Principle and Prosperity’s 1st Affirmation.  I suggest that you set an overarching intention for the next 40 days. What do you envision as a result of you taking part in this process? It can tangible or intangible; objective or subjective, it’s all up to you. My over arching intention for everyone who participates, including myself, is to have a richer relationship with Spirit.

John Randolph Price’s 1st Abundance Principle:

God is lavish, unfailing Abundance, the rich omnipresent Substance of the Universe. This all-providing Source of infinite prosperity is individualized as me – the Reality of me.

Prosperity’s 1st Affirmation:

1.    I look to God as my only Source of wealth.
I am faithful to the Principle of Abundance in action within me; I look to God within me as the only Source of my wealth and supply; I have access to all I need.

Read Matthew 5:1-16

Jeanie Marshall’s Daily Affirm website (http://dailyaffirm.com) is the most effective affirmation resource I have found on the web. She demonstrates the systematic use of 5 types of affirmation and I believe you can use the 5 types of affirmation to internalize your underlying intention for any affirmation you use.

Since this is the first month of the year, I will use Prosperity’s 1st Affirmation as an example:

I look to God as my only Source of Wealth and Supply

1. Releasing/Cleansing Affirmation – Here we release any contrary ideas.

 I recognize when I am looking for a Source other than God.

 I release my belief in false sources of wealth and supply.

2. Receiving/Accepting Affirmation – Here we become receptive to the idea we want to internalize.

When I recognize God as my only Source, I receive abundantly

I gratefully and eagerly accept every gift and blessing from God, my only Source of Supply.

3. Being/Intending Affirmation – Here we set the intention to embody the idea we are affirming.

Today I set the intention to recognize that all I receive comes from my consciousness of God within me as my only Source.

Today, I am gathering evidence of God appearing as my only Source of Good, including money.

4. Acting/Claiming Affirmation – Here we get into action regarding the affirmation.

Today, I act with assurance that God is the only Source of all that I need and desire.

I have whatever I need when I need it, my actions confirm God as my only Source of abundant supply.

5. Integrating/Embodying Affirmation – Here we deepen or intimacy with the idea we are affirming and make it a part of who we are.

I instinctively know that God is my only Source of prosperity and supply.

My every breath reaffirms God as the only Source of all I need and want.

The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it. – Proverbs 10:22

Now is the perfect time for us to set and live into an intention of prosperity for the remainder of this year. We can do so by considering and internalizing Prosperity’s 1st Affirmation, “I look to God as my only Source of Supply”. We add power to this affirmation as we consider the Truth of who we are, sons and daughters of God. We are individualized expressions of Spirit. In essence we are unique reflections of the rich omnipresent substance of the Universe. Holding this in mind, we look to God for the satisfaction of our needs and the fulfillment of our desires. As we look to God our only Source of Supply, we will hear with inner ears, see with inner eyes and be guided to outer circumstances which will sustain, bless and enrich us in ways that surpass our expectations and confer blessings on the world which expand our experience of God’s infinite possibilities.

Let’s Pray:
Our Father, Author of every blessing, I thank You for all of the possibilities of this present moment. Dear Lord, I see You as my only Source of Supply in all of Its forms including ideas, relationships, money and so much more. I recognize my oneness with You and thereby my fellow human beings as Pure Spirit. We are unique manifestations of Your all-providing Substance with the capacity to choose to look to You for wisdom and substance or to be seduced by the illusions of the world. In this holy moment Father, I choose to seek Your Presence and Your Guidance in every moment, in every place and with everyone. I look to You Father as my only Source, confident that You guide me to optimal circumstances, rich relationships and Soul satisfying experiences. I see everyone with whom I interact as an agent of my well being and I see myself as an agent of blessing for them as well. Father You are my one Source and You are constantly creating innumerable channels through which I receive my Good!
Thank You God!
So It Is!
Amen

Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. – Luke 6:38

For the past several months I have been focusing on the 10 Statements of Principle in John Randolph Price’s The Abundance Book. I often stop to consider relationships between Price’s Statements of Principle and one or more of Prosperity’s 12 Affirmations.

The 9th Principle is “When I am aware of the God-Self within me as my total fulfillment, I am totally fulfilled. I am now aware of this Truth. I have found the secret of life, and I relax in the knowledge that the Activity of Divine Abundance is eternally operating in my life. I simply have to be aware of the flow, the radiation of that Creative Energy, which is continuously, easily and effortlessly pouring forth form my Divine Consciousness. I am now aware. I am now in the flow“.

Prosperity’s 1st Affirmation is “I look to God as my only Source of wealth and supply“

Recently I have found that coupling a statement of being with each of Prosperity’s 12 Affirmations, increases their potency for me. Therefore today, my intention to embody the 9th Statement of Principle and Prosperity’s 1st Affirmation is expressed in the following affirmation:

“I am aware of the Activity of Divine Abundance within me operating in my life and my affairs today, and I continue to look to God within me as my only Source of Supply in all of Its forms, including money and favorable conditions”.

To expand these ideas about Prosperity’s 12 Affirmations look at the ideas in this past blog post — http://prosperingtimes.com/blog/2007/06/16/choosing-prosperity-prosperitys-12-affirmations/

Contemplate and Practice Prosperity’s 1st Affirmation:
“I look to God as my only Source of Wealth and Supply”
On this day _______, I now see God as my only Source of wealth and supply in my life. My employer, investments, businesses, banks, gifts and the like are only channels of wealth coming from God. I am God’s grateful Child and I am heir to all that my Father has. I look only to God to satisfy my needs. Read, digest and and meditate upon the following excerpt from The Abundance Book by John Randolph Price (page 28).

“I cease believing in visible money as my supply and my support and I view the world of effect as it truly is… simply and out-picturing of my former beliefs. I believed in the power of money, therefore I surrendered my God-given power and authority to an objectified belief. I believed in the possibility of lack, thus causing a separation in consciousness from the Source of my supply. I believed in mortal man and carnal conditions, and through this faith gave man and conditions power over me. I believed in the mortal illusion created by the collective consciousness of error thoughts, and in doing so, I have limited the Unlimited. No more! This day I renounce my so-called humanhood and claim my divine inheritance as a Be-ing of God. This day I acknowledge God and only God as my substance, my supply and my support”.

Use the following for the next 7 days to internalize the benefits of Prosperity’s 1st Affirmation. Take 5 to 10 minutes daily giving the 5 GIFTS of Abundant Life to yourself and others.
1. When you Look to God as Your Only Source of Wealth and Supply, what evokes your Gratitude?
2. What Intentions are you setting? What previous Intentions are manifesting now?
3. Is there anyone you want to Forgive or is there anyone from whom you wish to ask Forgiveness?
4. Where do you feel called to give or share your money? (Tithe) When (set a date)?
5. What do you feel you need to Surrender to the Love, Wisdom, Power of Christ within you?

Diane Harmony’s book and 8 week course 5 GIFTS for an Abundant Life has changed lives and helped hundreds if not thousands of people transform their relationship with money and well being. To keep the 5 GIFTS working in your life and to remember to give and receive the GIFTS everyday, you can start by considering and affirming the GIFTS of GRATITUDE and INTENTION.

Affirm Gratitude: I am grateful for my life and I take whatever time I need to find something for which to be grateful in every circumstance. Gratitude is an attitude and state of mind. You can choose to be grateful in virtually any situation. Consider the similarities and distinctions among gratitude, appreciation and thanksgiving.

Affirm Intention: I am Intentional. I set and manifest intentions as a part of God’s promises to humanity. Intentionality is a powerful exercise of the will which does not require any stressful effort when approached from a spiritual perspective. Experiment with setting and manifesting intentions.

I am grateful that that each time I affirm Prosperity’s 1st Affirmation, I am reminded that regardless of outer appearances, I know that God is providing for my well being. I also realize that as I create visions and images of God’s blessings manifesting in my life and experience, I am practicing Prosperity’s 2nd Affirmation and I am being intentional.

Why not intend to find 5 things for which to be grateful today?
