Love is God in Manifestation
GOD IS LOVE.
The Kingdom of God/Love is within each person
“Seek ye first the Kingdom of God/Love and its righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”
“Draw nigh to God/Love and it will draw nigh to you”;
“Follow the path of God/Love and all things are added”;
The Kingdom is the realm of Right Ideas
Knowing right from wrong;
Awakening conscience;
Seeking Objective Truth with an open mind and critical thinking;
Knowing that impartial observation and critical analysis is the key to arriving at Objective Truth;
Developing a willingness to face the Truth with knowledge that “the Truth shall set you Free”;
Being aware and conscious of universal Principles and the importance of striving to apply them in one’s life;
Being aware of and taking advantage of opportunities that arise; and striving to turn setbacks and challenges into opportunities.
Exercising the right of each person to choose between doing right and doing wrong; engaging in right action or engaging in the wrong action i.e. exercising free will/choice and experiencing the consequences of the chosen path;
“Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” In other words, you own the key to your own destiny;
Avoiding, managing/mastering negative emotions because anger, fear, worry, doubts, jealousy, envy, hate, possessiveness, etc. are deadly sins which lead to conflict and disrupt stability;
Knowing that Self-centredness, Selfishness, Self-deception, inflexibility, greed and arrogance are obstacles to self-development.
Being self-interested and developing self-respect, knowing that Love of Self and Family is the First Step in attaining Universal Love and consciousness of the commonality of humanity (“Charity begins at home”).
Understanding that change is inevitable and must be encouraged and supported whenever it leads to a positive outcome.
Know Yourself
Subconscious Mind: Power without direction (“the drunken monkey”）
Conscious Mind: Mortal, carnal, filled with doubts and fears
Super-conscious Mind: The God-mind within, conscience
Self-Confrontation and conquest/mastery
After objective self-analysis and recognition of one’s strengths and weaknesses, centre and establish yourself in right thinking and action by accepting the Will of the super-conscious i.e. God/Love within.
And using the Conscious Mind, impress upon the Subconscious Mind through prayer your desire and commitment to a wholesome discipline and to right action.
The management and control of the subconscious mind through conscious and constant prayer and right action makes wonderful things seem possible and easy of accomplishment.
However, whenever you engage in prayer, you must do so believing in order to be successful in achieving a positive outcome.
Through “Prayer” we programme the subconscious mind.
Remember:
- That consciousness of God/Love must be expressed in right action because Faith without works is dead, and the pleasure of love is always linked to the responsibilities of love.
- That Giving opens the way for receiving;
- That you can never receive what you have never given;
- That it is not what you give, but the reason for giving that is important.
In your dealings with others, you must be always guided by wisdom, which is common sense.
Always guard yourself against those who will seek to exploit and abuse your goodwill. Love with wisdom, that is, with knowledge, experience and good judgment.
Be strong, optimistic, confident, disciplined, principled, patient, courteous and respectful.
Be humble, show gratitude and appreciation and be quick to apologize for wrongs committed.
Do not be quick to judge and condemn others.
Do onto others as you will have them do unto you.
Love others as you love yourself, that is, you must be your brother’s/sister’s/neighbour’s keeper.
Show empathy and understand others; and remember that you must always be willing to forgive others their wrongs and trespasses against you as others forgive your trespasses against them. And know that in pardoning you too are pardoned.
Forgive, but do not forget your experience as this will guide your future dealings with the particular person as well as others. Forgiveness cleanses and releases the Forgiver and enables him/her to understand that under God/Love and spirit, there are no enemies, only Teachers.
Learn from your Mistakes and the Mistakes of others.
Remember, God helps those who help themselves; and that where there is a Will there is a Way.
Let not intimidation move set path.
Strive to be Happy.
