Change water into wine!

 Let this be your daily prayer; write it in your heart: “God is the source of my supply. That supply is my supply now. His riches flow to me freely, copiously, and abundantly. I am forever conscious of my true worth. I give of my talents freely, and I am wonderfully, divinely compensated. Thank you, Father!” Murphy, Joseph. How to Attract Money (p. 33). GENERAL PRESS. 

“To change environment or outer conditions we do not have to work directly with them but with our own thinking about them. - Nona Lovell Brooks Short Lessons In Divine Science (1940)

You can acquire riches when you become aware of the fact that prayer is a marriage feast. The feast is a psychological one; you meditate on (mentally eat of) your good or your desire until you become one with it. Murphy, Joseph. How to Attract Money (p. 36). GENERAL PRESS. 

“The Substance of the body is Spirit; there is nothing else for it to be. “That which is born of spirit is Spirit.” “Like produces like.” Knowing the body to be Spirit, we come into the perception of its true nature. We no longer condemn it to weakness and limitation. We see it as holy, as whole--an expression of Universal Life. We reap the fruits of our thoughts; for we begin to see the true state of the body.” - Nona Lovell Brooks Short Lessons In Divine Science (1940)

“God is the source of my supply, and all my needs are met at every moment of time and point of space.” Murphy, Joseph. How to Attract Money (p. 46). GENERAL PRESS. 

 

“God is the source of my supply. All my financial and other needs are met at every moment of time and point of space; there is always a Divine surplus.” Murphy, Joseph. How to Attract Money (p. 47). GENERAL PRESS. 

“Divine Science is revealing to us two things: first, that healing is not a physical process but, spiritual realization; and second, that health is not a condition of physical well-being only but the realization of a state of wholeness in the individual. Healing is the turning from the belief in disease to the realization of God’s Presence and Perfect Activity. God is health. Do I hear you asking, “Since God is health and God is omnipresent, what is there to be healed?” There is only one condition to be healed--our misconceptions.” - Nona Lovell Brooks Mysteries (1924)

 

Quimby, who was a doctor, a wonderful student, and teacher of the mental and spiritual laws of mind, said, “Man acts as he is acted upon.” What moves you now? What is it that determines your response to life? The answer is as follows: Your ideas, beliefs, and opinions activate your mind and condition you to the point that you become, as Quimby stated, “An expression of your beliefs.” This illustrates the truth of Quimby’s statement: “Man is belief expressed.” Murphy, Joseph. How to Attract Money (pp. 49-50). GENERAL PRESS.

Another popular statement of Quimby’s was, “Our minds mingle like atmospheres, and each person has his identity in that atmosphere.” Murphy, Joseph. How to Attract Money (p. 50). GENERAL PRESS.

It stands to reason, as Quimby knew, that if man will not take charge of his own house (mind), the propaganda, false beliefs, fears, and worries of the phenomenalistic world will act as a hypnotic spell over him. Murphy, Joseph. How to Attract Money (pp. 50-51). GENERAL PRESS

 

Wealth is a state of consciousness; it is a mind conditioned to Divine supply forever flowing. The scientific thinker looks at money or wealth like the tide; i.e., it goes out, but it always comes back. Murphy, Joseph. How to Attract Money (p. 14). GENERAL PRESS. 

Take this little phrase; repeat it slowly four or five minutes for three or four times a day quietly to yourself, particularly before you go to sleep: “Money is forever circulating freely in my life, and there is always a Divine surplus.” Murphy, Joseph. How to Attract Money (p. 15). GENERAL PRESS. 

 

Troward says, “Having seen the end, you have willed the means to the realization of the end.”

Accepting the end wills the means to the realization of the end. Believe that you have it now, and you shall receive it. Murphy, Joseph. How to Attract Money 

“Change water into wine!”
Wine in the Bible always means the realization of your desires, urges, plans, dreams, propositions, etc.; in other words, it is the things you wish to accomplish, achieve, and bring forth.
Water in the Bible usually refers to your mind or consciousness.
Water takes the shape of any vessel into which it is poured; likewise, whatever you feel and believe as true will become manifest in your world; thus you are always changing water into wine.
Joseph Murphy :How to Attract Money

Do not let yourself fall into the trap of excusing the tendency to fear and worry on the grounds of heredity, education, environment, or circumstances.  You may have been a worrier for many years, you may have been driven and torn many times by worry and fear.  But you can change.  If you will only accept the Truth that you do not really have to be afraid or to worry, that you do so by choice and habit, this alone will be a giant step forward.

Worry indicates a lack of focus or perspective in our lives.  It means that we are concentrating on what we do not have instead of what we do have.  We are thinking of our weaknesses instead of our strengths.  We are looking at the hole instead of the donut.  There may be precarious situations in your life, but there is so much more in your life that is secure.  You can find that which is less than good in all people, but you can find so much more that is good and lovable.

The fearmongers of our day would keep us in a constant state of tension concerning the possibility of natural disaster or atomic holocaust.  “These are the dark days!” they constantly moan.  The fact is that people have been saying this continually for generations... even for centuries.  In fact the prophets of ancient Israel were saying it nearly three thousand years ago.  If truly the sword of Damocles hands over our heads, then the hair by which it is suspended is of sturdier stuff than we imagine.

There is no point in minimizing the fact that it takes self-discipline to erase fear and worry.  But since when were we not supposed to be disciplined? ~ Eric Butterworth from https://www.unityofcolumbus.org/only-thing-we-have-fear where you can also read what Fillmore said during the 1918-1920  pandemic
