THE FOURTH GREAT PRAYER - 'I ATTRACT GOD'S BLESSINGS'

by e-bluespirit 2005. 11. 25.

 


The Fourth Great Prayer
For an Abundant & Blessed Life



Dear Friend in Prayer,

The 4th Great Prayer is the prayer that will attract massive amounts of Blessings in your life.  But before we get to this miraculous prayer I would first like to spend a moment with you regarding...

------------------------------------------------
THE SECRET METHOD TO PRAYING
------------------------------------------------

First, remember, and I’ll keep saying it again, and again, the secret to successful praying is ‘to pray without ceasing’. 

And the easiest way to ‘pray without ceasing’ is to pray ‘simple, short, and powerful’ prayers; all of which I’m teaching you here...

To truly get an avalanche of BLESSINGS; not only do you have to pray The 7 Great Prayers, you also have to pray the right way. 

Today we’re going to talk and learn about the Power of Affirmations. 
When you ‘mix’ affirmations with prayers the results are dramatic!! 
By adding Affirmations to your prayers, the results are not doubled, but instead they are increased by 500%!!

What is an affirmation?

An affirmation is a statement that’s said in the ‘personal’, ‘positive’, and ‘present tense’. 

For example:

‘I like myself, I like myself, I like myself’.

‘Day by day, in every way, I’m getting closer and closer to God.’

For the remainder of my lessons I’ll be mixing affirmations in with The 7 Great Prayers. Blending affirmations with prayers is the SECRET to a closer relationship with God, and the easiest and best way to ‘attract’ more of God’s blessings into your life!

It’s been said by psychotherapists that a child, by the time he or she is 10 years old, has heard the word ‘No’ over 50,000 times, and that we all hear the word ‘No’ 100 times more often than ‘Yes’.

This ‘negative’ programming kills self-esteem, destroys self-confidence, and makes people physically ill, and mentally depressed.

God wants you to like yourself! God wants you to have self-confidence! 
God wants you to be happy! 

With all the negative input we’re receiving from friends, family, co-workers, radio, TV, etc., it’s up to you to make sure that you program your mind and pray the right way. This is the only way you'll receive a lifetime of Blessings!

Starting today I would like you to mix affirmations in with your daily, and ceaseless, praying. 

Please mix in affirmations with The first Three Great Prayers. Do whatever’s most comfortable for you as for the order and content of your prayers.


It doesn’t have to be an exact science. It’s more important that you pray with feeling and love!

------------------------------------------------------------------------

‘God, I believe and know you are inside me!’
‘God, you like me, and I like me.’
‘God your love shines through me’ 
‘God, I love you! And you love me.’
‘Thank You God for…’ (fill in the blank).
‘I’m happy, healthy, and loving.’
‘Day by day, in every way, I’m getting healthier and healthier.’
‘I feel happy, I feel healthy, I feel terrific!’
‘I like myself, I like myself, I like myself.’
‘Thank You God for…’ (fill in the blank).
‘Day by day, in every way, I’m getting closer and closer to God.’
‘I can do it!’
‘With God inside me, I can do anything.’
‘Day by day, in every way, I’m getting (fill in the blank)’ etc.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here’s the 'current' recipe for praying success. Recognized God, Praise God, 
Thank God and then say/pray affirmations to yourself that build up your self-worth.
Love who you are, and know that God does too!!

Now that you have an understanding of the POWER
of Affirmations, let's get to...

THE 4TH GREAT PRAYER
------------------------------------------------

"I ATTRACT GOD’S BLESSINGS"

 

The first four lessons built the “the foundation for the prayer that “attracts” an “abundant “life, and “blessings” from God.

 

”I ATTRACT GOD’S BLESSINGS!”

To Recap our lessons:

 

The first 3 GREAT PRAYERS

* I love you God.
* Thank You God for (fill in the blank)
* God, you are inside me.

 

Then, at the top of this lesson we learned about the Power of Affirmations...

 

  • I can do it!
  • I believe in God, I believe in me.
  • Day by Day in everyway I’m getting better and better.
  • I am happy, healthy, and wealthy.
  • Affirmation Prayers are all created and said in the “present” tense, and in a “positive” manner.

 

With the first 3 GREAT PRAYERS you recognize that God is with you and in you.  You’ve given Him praise and your love.  And you’ve THANKED Him for the Blessings He’s already given you, and continues to give you.

 

THE POWER OF REPETITION

 

We’ve also learned in our prior lessons that it’s not a matter how long or poetic your prayers are to God, but more importantly is that you should keep your prayers short, simple, and powerful. 

We learned that the most important thing in praying is repetition, "to pray without ceasing" and the easiest way to repeat and memorize a prayer is to keep it short and simple, ala, The 7 Great Prayers.

In regards to THANKING God, a big part of this Third Great Prayer is for you to be AWARE of all that God has already given, and continues to give you. 

So many times we all get caught up in our internal soap opera of our own life, we get so focused on ourselves, and our problems, we don’t see, and THANK God, for the blessings He gives us DAILY.

 

You will never be able to ATTRACT God’s Blessings until you change your focus.  Don’t focus on you and your problems, but instead, focus on God, his Love, and his Power. 

 

FOCUS on GOD – NOT YOU

Look outward towards God and recognize and give THANKS for what He continues to give you.  Please, pause every day, throughout the day, to recognize and give THANKS to God for the gifts He gives you.   Be thankful for the LITTLE things, and you will soon be giving THANKS to God for the BIGGER Blessings you’re asking for. 

You will not get BIG blessings until you first give thanks for the LITTLE blessings.  Thank God for sunshine.  The air.  Your pet. A friend. It’s not hard to do….just look, and THANK! Give THANKS for everything!

For you to be successful in “positive” prayer you have to eliminate all negative thinking in your life.  I know this is extremely hard to do; I struggle with this all the time.  But I’ve found that the best way to breakthrough and switch from negative thinking, to a positive life, is to pray The 7 Great Prayers, always thinking and visualizing “POSITIVE” outcomes and to use the POWER OF AFFIRMATIONS.

 

I’m always trying my VERY BEST to think and pray as though I have ALREADY received what I ask for from God.   I ask that you do the same; you’ll be amazed at the results!

 

Don’t be ashamed to ask God for blessings.  God wants you to ask.  Forgive yourself of any sins of your past; God has forgiven you, so forgive yourself.  You’re a GOOD person, so you deserve to receive Blessings from God. 

You have to forgive yourself, – “get over it”.  Do this and you’ve cleared the way to receive BLESSINGS from God.

So here’s the 4th prayer that will start ATTRACTING incredible blessings into your life – Health, Love, Money, Happiness, Purpose, a Better Relationship with God, is all yours when you pray…

 

“I ATTRACT GOD’S BLESSINGS”

 

Here are some variations.  These variations use two of the most powerful words in the English language, I AM.

When Moses saw the burning bush, he asked, “Who are you?”

 

And the answer Moses received was -  “I AM”

 

Tap into the power of God and preface your prayer requests with these two POWERFUL words:

“I AM ATTRACTING GOD’S BLESSINGS.”

“I AM HAPPY.”

“I AM FULL OF LIFE, LOVE, AND HAPPINESS.”

“I AM HEALED.”

“I AM DEBT FREE.”

“I HAVE A GREAT JOB.”

 

Even if you’re not any of the above, say and pray them anyway.  As they say in acting school, “Fake it until you make it.”

You’ll find that when you pray and affirm positive statement like the above, and you do it positively, with feeling, and enthusiasm (which in Greek, enthusiasm means  – “God within”), you’ll start receiving an avalanche of Blessings from God!!!

Whatever you ask from God, do as Jesus taught…

 

"...whatever ye shall ask in prayer, 
believing, ye shall receive."
(Mat. 21:22)
  

 

When praying, keep your focus on God "inside you".  If God is inside you, his Holy Spirit is inside you, it only makes sense that He has the power to ATTRACT good things toward Him and You – like a magnet attracts metal!

What can make this attraction “not” work?

  • Negative thinking.
  • A poor attitude.
  • Guilt.
  • Anger.

Thinking negative thoughts minimizes and blocks God’s ability to attract goodness into your life.  Forgive yourself.  Forgive your spouse.  Forgive your enemy.  Forgive God.  Release the bad and attract God’s goodness and Blessings – RIGHT NOW!

Prayer for God’s forgiveness; and remember, pray as though you already have received:

 

“THANK YOU GOD FOR FORGIVING ME.”

For ANY of your prayers, don’t phrase them with the word PLEASE in front of them.  Doing this presupposes that God may NOT grant you your blessing.  Always pray in the present and positive tense, as though you have “already” received God’s Blessing; and being so, you give Him THANKS.

I'll talk to you again soon!  We still have prayers 5, 6, and 7.  These prayers add power to the 4th GREAT PRAYERS!! 

 

Until the next time we speak, keep praying and may God always… 

Bless You and Yours,
