Everything God has created is made of energy. The only difference between an atom of a tree and an atom of a mushroom is that the atom of a tree has energy that is vibrating at different frequencies than the atom of a mushroom. It is evidently clear that the same particles growing together in a tree, or in a mushroom, are because they are vibrating at the same frequency. 

Most of what we are experiencing has been attracted by our own thoughts

The bible says, "As a man thinks, so is he" (Proverbs 23:7). Since our thoughts create reality, we create our reality. So making excuses and casting blame only make us out to be the victim. There is absolutely no power in playing the part of a victim.  

I know it can be very difficult to change the pattern of thinking we have engaged in for so long. But, It's only a habit, and habits can be changed. 

Instead of thinking thoughts of fear, dread, and worry, think thoughts of peace, happiness, and positive expectation.

Easier said than done, I know. But, like I said, negative thinking is only a habit - a bad one.  

Job had engaged in negative thinking and attracted all kinds of garbage into his life.

He said, "For the thing which I greatly feared is come upon me" (Job 3:25). You obviously don't want the things you fear to come upon you. So, quit sending out vibrations of fear! Make a decision that you will only use your imagination for positive thoughts. Fear and worry are only the mis-use of the imagination.  

God has given us an awesome resource - our mind.

Also, He has given us free will to choose what we will do with our minds. Use it responsibly! He said, "I set before you life and death, blessing and cursing, therefore, choose life" (Deut 30:19).  

It really takes no more effort to think positive than it does to think negative. Like I said, thinking negative is just a habit. A habit you must break if you want to live an abundant and prosperous life. 

Whatever it takes to break the bad habit of negative thinking we must do it. Maybe it will mean us having to break off some negative relationships. Maybe it will mean us having to turn off the television, or the radio. Understand that our association is vital to our well-being. "Like attracts like" and we must send out vibrations of thought at the same frequency as the things we want.   

Prosperity is simply the power of positive thinking.

All we must do to attract the things we desire is hold a mental picture of what we want as long as possible and as often as possible. Feel that we already have what we desire with certainty and we will see it become manifested in our lives. 

It sounds simple enough, and it really is simple. It's just not all that easy! It's not easy because our old thinking patterns are habits, and habits are not always easy to change. It can be done though with practice and determination.

In summary, our thoughts are vibrating energy and we create what we want by focusing our thoughts on those things. Jesus said in Mark 9:23, "According to your faith, be it done unto you."
