Achieving Wealth Begins with \u201cThank You God!\u201d \u2013 Lesson 6\/Image courtesy of Bing Copyright-Free Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>

Achieving Wealth Begins with \u201cThank You God!\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\n Yes, achieving wealth begins with the statement, \u201cThank You God!\u201d\u00a0<\/strong><\/em> Psalm 37:4 states:\u00a0 \u201cDelight yourself in the\u00a0Lord<\/span>, <\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>and he will give you the desires of your heart.\u201d <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/em>Many people have a hard time even ASKING<\/strong> GOD<\/strong> <\/em>for something, let alone THANKING GOD<\/strong><\/em> for it before they even receive it.\u00a0 This could be due to the negative programming they received while growing up.<\/p>\n My parents grew up during The Great Depression, so they had a lifelong worry about not having enough money. Fortunately for me, both of my parents believed in the power of prayer and miracles.<\/p>\n Thanking God in Advance Manifested My First Miracle\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n**** ** One of my first miracles occurred when I was exhausted after spending months looking for my perfect house.\u00a0 Yet, once I GOT CLEAR<\/strong><\/em> on what I wanted, and visualized my perfect house and THANKED GOD<\/strong><\/em> for it, THE VERY NEXT DAY<\/strong><\/em> that house appeared for me!\u00a0 And it was just listed one day earlier \u2013 the day I THANKED GOD<\/strong><\/em> for finding my perfect house!<\/p>\n ** When I Say \u201cThank You God\u201d Whatever I Desire Appears<\/strong><\/h2>\n ** This has happened over and over in my life.\u00a0 For example, I spent weeks looking for my perfect car, a two-year-old Bonneville SSEI. And yet I heard over and over that it was such a popular car that a used one was always snapped up immediately.<\/p>\n ** So, I decided to turn it over to God.\u00a0 I visualized my perfect model, which was white, two years old, with no more than 20,000 miles on it, and costing no more than $23,000.\u00a0 I THANKED GOD<\/strong><\/em> for my perfect car and released it into His hands.<\/p>\n ** Within the Week, My Perfect Car Appeared!<\/strong><\/h2>\n ** A week later, my friend Chip called me from the auto auction.\u00a0 Apparently, he was there looking for a car for himself, but remembered that I was looking for a particular car.\u00a0 And he was calling to tell me that MY CAR<\/strong><\/em>, a white two-year-old Bonneville SSEI was coming up for auction.\u00a0 It had 15,000 miles on it, was in perfect condition, and he could probably get it for me for $22,000.\u00a0 WOW!\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n ** And once again, once I GOT CLEAR<\/strong><\/em> on that perfect car, and THANKED GOD<\/strong><\/em> for it, it miraculously appeared the very next week, after I had gone to the bank and got approval for a car loan, anticipating that my perfect car was going to appear.<\/p>\n ** Within the Day, My Perfect House Appeared!<\/strong><\/h2>\n ** The same thing happened with the second house I purchased and have lived in now for 30 years.\u00a0 I spent months looking for my perfect house, but nothing appealed to me.\u00a0 And then I decided to give it to God (why didn\u2019t I do that in the first place?\u00a0 Duh!)<\/p>\n ** This time, I didn\u2019t even visualize my perfect house.\u00a0 I just turned it over to God one night before going to sleep.\u00a0 When I awoke the next morning, I was given a message to look for my house in a completely different location.\u00a0 I called my Realtor and instructed her to look in a particular neighborhood, and she exclaimed, \u201cBut that\u2019s nowhere near where you told me to look!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n ** \u201cI know,\u201d<\/em> I replied.\u00a0 \u201cBut I just have a feeling that this location is the right place for us to be looking.\u201d\u00a0 <\/em>She grumbled, \u201cOK, I\u2019ll look there, but I hope it\u2019s not a waste of time.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0 I had to laugh at her reaction.\u00a0 I understood she was frustrated, after spending months looking and not finding my house.\u00a0 Yet I didn\u2019t think she would believe me if I said that God told me to look in that area.<\/p>\n ** And sure enough, she called me about two hours later and exclaimed, \u201cWell, Kathy, you were right!\u00a0 I found your perfect home!\u00a0 IT WAS JUST LISTED TODAY!\u00a0 What a great deal!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n ** Thanking God Manifests Your Desire Quickly!<\/strong><\/h2>\n ** I could go on listing other incidents in which I THANKED GOD<\/em><\/strong> for whatever I desired and received it quickly, only to discover that my desire was miraculously manifested shortly thereafter!<\/p>\n ** Of course, I now understand that God has set up the Universe to provide to you whatever you think or say your desire.\u00a0 If you think or say, \u201cWe\u2019ll be able to get by,\u201d<\/em> guess what the Universe brings you?\u00a0 Right!\u00a0 Just enough to get by!<\/p>\n ** Most People Misunderstand the Way God\u2019s System Works<\/strong><\/h2>\n ** Most \u00a0people, misunderstand the way God\u2019s System works.\u00a0 They are quick to say, \u201cGod is probably so busy taking care of everyone else, so I don\u2019t want to bother Him with my needs.\u00a0 I\u2019ll just ask for a little bit and maybe He\u2019ll have time to provide it without taking Him away from helping others.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n ** This is in line with the belief many people have that they have to ask God, Who will then personally provide when He isn\u2019t busy.\u00a0 I know; I used to believe this as well.\u00a0 This false belief is what holds people back from receiving their Birthright of Wealth and Abundance.<\/p>\n ** Learn to Use the Password \u201cTHANK YOU GOD!\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\n ** Unfortunately, since THOUGHTS ARE THINGS<\/em><\/strong>, until you wake up to the Truth that God has set up your own personal Trust Fund, available to you anytime if you use your Password of \u201cTHANK YOU GOD\u201d<\/em><\/strong> to access it, you will continue to struggle, never having enough money to pursue your dreams.<\/p>\n ** Tell me, are you tired of just getting by?\u00a0 Isn\u2019t it time that you accepted your just rewards?\u00a0 Start DREAMING BIG!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n ** This Week\u2019s Course of Action<\/u><\/b><\/h2>\n\nIf you are stuck in a belief that God is too busy to meet your paltry needs, think about what you can do to overcome this belief.<\/li>\nOne thing that worked for me was to go to the Internet and search out stories of people who received miracles in their life.<\/li>\nIf you are willing to change your negative beliefs about your worthiness to receive wealth and abundance, there is no better way than to immerse yourself in the joyful stories of others who received miracles.\u00a0 If it happened to them, it can happen to you as well<\/li>\nAlso, begin to test the system by THANKING GOD<\/em><\/strong> for a perfect parking spot.\u00a0 The first time I did this, the parking lot was packed.\u00a0 When I made this affirmation, I accepted a parking spot far away from the entrance to the Mall.\u00a0 As I walked up to the doors, a car pulled out RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE MALL!<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0 That would have been MY SPOT<\/em><\/strong> if I had only TRUSTED THE SYSTEM!<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\nNow I THANK GOD<\/em><\/strong> for a parking spot RIGHT UP FRONT<\/em><\/strong> \u2013 and get it every time!\u00a0 This will give you the courage to begin giving thanks for other things.\u00a0 Little by little, as you begin to receive your desires, you become bolder and ask for bigger and better things \u2013 WHICH YOU DESERVE!<\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ** ****Achieving Wealth Begins with \u201cThank You God!\u201d Yes, achieving wealth begins with the statement, \u201cThank You God!\u201d\u00a0 Psalm 37:4 states:\u00a0 \u201cDelight yourself in the\u00a0Lord, \u00a0and he will give you the desires of your heart.\u201d Many people have a hard time even ASKING GOD for something, let alone THANKING GOD for it before they even receive […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5381,"featured_media":1011,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[51],"class_list":["post-1008","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-achieving-wealth-begins-with-thank-you-god-lesson-6"],"yoast_head":"\nAchieving Wealth Begins with "Thank You God!"<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Achieving Wealth Begins with the statement "Thank You God!"
