All religions teach that faith is the foundation of all that one could experience that is good, right, just and beneficial. Joy and happiness are the products of faithful living.
We are told to have faith that a loving caring God will answer our prayers.
Jesus explained that when we pray (have a desire) we must know that the condition is already a reality.
Most people and religions believe that prayer is a petition, or request that we must be worthy of. God will judge our behavior and decide if we are deserving.
This throws the teaching of Jesus into doubt by assigning condition.
Some pray with the fear that they are not deserving due to some component of their life or behavior.
The understanding that God is not separate and we are actually individuated projections of God, illuminates the dynamic that we are actually judging ourselves.
Wether we believe a Wizard-like deity, or the indwelling spark of ONE DIVINE AWARENESS is the source of the manifestation, it is still dependent upon how strongly we believe in the possibility of our desire (intention is a more useful vernacular) manifesting in our lives.
The bottom line is that we will manifest what ever we believe.
If your faith is magic from deity, or divine power from within, the answer is always YES.
The confusion lies in understanding the language of the request,(prayer)
Regardless what the desire is; the actual order that gets placed for delivery is what we believe at the core of our being will happen.
So faith IS, MANIFESTATION. The question is; what do you believe ?
Look at your life. There in lies the catalog of orders you have been placing.
Life is what we believe it to be.
It does not matter what we see on the news, social media, the internet or out our window. None of it will become part of our experience until we buy into it with our faith.
The very, very good news about this is that the absurdities we see around us can be just comical fodder for our entertainment, and not any serious reality to impact our lives, or they can be debilitating life-threatening conditions to derail any hope of a joyful life.
It’s all according to faith. And of course, faith boils down to choice.
