Introduction . . .

What is Prosperity Mastery?

Prosperity Masteryis having a deep inner realization of oneness with God, the source of all wealth. It is proving the spiritual laws of prosperity for yourself. It is confidently and peacefully living without fear or want while enjoying a comfortable level of health, wealth and happiness, and helping other people do the same. It is living life lovingly, graciously, gratefully, and free. Prosperity Masteryis alwayshaving plenty of money!

That is what these Lessons are about. The 30 lessons in this e-book are specifically designed to create real and lasting prosperity. You may read through all of the lessons, however, the real intent of this e-book is to be a study course.

I recommend that you study only one lesson per day, or take as much time as you need to grasp the real substance of each lesson. Do not be fooled by the shortness or simplicity of some of the lessons. My intention was to enable students to easily comprehend and put to work this dynamic teaching. Understandably, you may be in a hurry to enjoy your greater prosperity, and these lessons will surely help you do that, but take your time! Give yourself the opportunity to assimilate the prospering ideas contained in each lesson and put them to work. The proof of how well you understand what is taught will appear as results.

For greater understanding and prospering benefit, I suggest that you get one or two Prosperity Power Partners to study these lessons with you. An even better idea would be to form a Prosperity Power Group of four, five, or six like-minded friends who definitely desire to master prosperity. Make a commitment to meet once a week to study and discuss one to two lessons, and to support each other. Each group member must have his or her personal copy of Prosperity For The Millions. Take turns reading paragraphs. Speak the Prosperity Affirmations and then have a few minutes of silent meditation in which you “tune in” to universal prospering energy. Always refrain from negative, lack talk. Positively support each other in the achieving of prosperity goals. Between meetings quietly support each other with positive, prospering energy.

Go back and review each lesson from time to time to make sure you are keeping on track. Each time you do this, a new idea or new way of seeing things will come to you. Repetition is the key to learning. Each time you read one of these Lessons it feeds your subconscious mind and builds real prosperity consciousness.

As good as these lessons are, they are only part of the on-going process of Prosperity Mastery. These lessons are intended to cause you to think in a certain way and to get you on the royal road to riches, and stay on it.

The basis of these lessons is spiritual. You may learn how to attract money in many ways, and most of them are good. However, unless you put a spiritual foundation under your prosperity, it will not last. This course of study is your spiritual foundation.

There are 30 lessons in this course, plus added features such as Brad Jensen’s The Secrets of the Universe – Prosperity Step-by-Step.

It will be of real value to you to have a prosperity partner. This is someone with whom you are spiritually compatible, with whom you can agree on goals with, has the same dedication as you, and with whom you may study and give support to.

Because I sincerely desire to help as many people as possible to enjoy more abundant lives, I have intentionally kept the price of this course very low so that everyone can afford it. However, do not let the low-cost fool you. This course of study could be worth millions to you! It will help you to realize your prosperity dreams if you will let it.

Prosperity for the Millions

Lesson One

Foundation for Permanent Prosperity – Part One

Prosperity Principle:In every aspect of life, to have more you must give more.

In the mid-sixties, my family and I purchased a house several miles north of Bremerton, Washington. It was situated on three very pretty acres with a view of the Olympic Mountains. One of the outstanding features of the house was that when the wind blew, even very hard, that house never shook or even creaked. That’s because it was securely fastened to very large rocks which were cemented together to form a solid foundation.

A good foundation is essential when constructing a building and just as important when creating permanent prosperity. Some people tend to rush into establishing themselves in a prosperous condition, and when they are not successful, they wonder what happened. Hurry is not part of the prosperity game.

The basis for permanent prosperity is the universal law: You cannot get something for nothing. In other words, “Thou shalt not steal.” In truth, one who steals, steals from himself. The con artist first cons himself. (A lot of people have “conned” [thought and talked] themselves into lack and limitation.)

Under the law of compensation it is impossible to get something for nothing. Life, functioning under this law of mind, demands that we pay for what we get. By the same token, we get what we pay for. If you try to get something for nothing, nothing is what you eventually wind up with.

Under universal law, in order to receive full measure, you are required to give full measure. You must pay eventually, so why not now? A balance must be maintained between giving and receiving.

Wealth is the outpicturing of your state of mind. Those who strive hard for wealth yet remain poor, have a poverty consciousness. That is the main reason for their lack of achieving the prosperous results they desire. And, they do not know God as the Source of their supply.

Keep in mind that it is not hard work but the condition of your consciousness that determines how prosperous you are. Some people who spend years trying to prosper and work very hard to do so without success, may be laboring under karmic law.

Karmic law is the oriental name for results of cause and effect, and can be carried from one incarnation to another. However, the law of *grace transcends the law of karma, and it is God’s free gift to you.

A businessman believed that it didn’t matter what he did to achieve his prosperity goals. He thought it was okay to cheat people, to give them inferior goods while over-charging them. It wasn't long before his business was failing. Fortunately, he realized what was happening and determined to change his thinking and behavior, he studied the universal laws of prosperity, especially the laws of grace, giving, receiving and attraction.

Invoking the law of grace set him free from past mistakes, and by diligently applying the laws of prosperity, especially tithing, he first established within himself a solid foundation upon which he could build permanent prosperity. He made a determination to give people greater value for their purchases than the price they paid. Soon, his business began to prosper, and he became very successful. He was grateful he had learned the value of giving full measure instead of trying to get something for nothing.

Prosperity Affirmation: Securely founded in the Source of all wealth, my prosperity steadily grows. By the grace of God, I am free from past mistakes and I now go forward into my ever-increasing prosperity.

Lesson Two

The Foundation for Permanent Prosperity – Part Two

Prosperity Principle: Get intimately acquainted with Substance, the very essence of your prosperity.

Your prosperity depends upon Substance, which is the very foundation of your prosperity. Therefore, you are wise to get intimately acquainted with substance.

All that appears is made from the one Universal Substance. Substance is intelligent. It thinks and is alive with life itself. Faith or thought activity activates substance. By impressing your thought upon substance, the form of your thought is manifested in your life. Substance is always, everywhere present. Your mind, body, everything in and around you, and all that is, is permeated with, and is substance.

You live in a friendly universe of all-providing substance of which you may have all you can use with abundance left over. There is no limit to how much you may partake of substance.

Substance is the foundation of your prosperity. Therefore you are required to look to universal substance and not to channels. By living and thinking in all-providing substance, you receive the overflowing abundance of God. Substance is another name for God.

Of great importance is your recognition of substance as the source of all you need and desire, and to make your demands known to it. This greatly enhances your ability to prosper. The universe responds best when you believe you have already received your desires just as though you they are yours now.

Charles Fillmore, co-founder of Unity, taught: Spiritual substance from which comes all visible wealth is never depleted. It is right with you all the time and responds to your faith in it and your demands upon it. It is not affected by ignorant talk of hard times, though you are affected because your thoughts and words govern the level of your prosperity.

The unfailing resource is always ready to give. It has no choice in the matter; it must give, for that is its nature. Pour your living words of faith into the omnipresent substance, and you will be prospered regardless of what is going on in the financial world. Turn the great energy of your thinking upon "plenty" ideas, and you will have plenty regardless of what others may be saying or doing.

Substance is first given form in your mind, and as it becomes manifest it goes through a three-fold process. In laying hold of substance in your mind and bringing it into manifestation you play a most important part. According to your decree – spoken word – you prosper.

You are always decreeing, sometimes consciously, often unconsciously, and with every thought and word you increase or diminish the threefold activity of substance. The resulting manifestation conforms to your thought. "As he thinks within himself, so is he."

There is no scarcity of the air you breathe. There is an all-sufficiency of all things, just as there is an all-sufficiency of air. The only lack there is is your own lack of appropriation.

Substance exists in a realm of ideas and is powerful when handled by one who is familiar with its characteristics. The ignorant open the valves of their minds and let ideas flow out where they are dissipated.

It is not wise to seek the kingdom of substance for the sake of what you may get out of it. Make a definite covenant with God, the source of all wealth, in which you release all personal desires and agree to use all your substance in the highest and best way for the good of all.

The substance, which has in the past manifested in your affairs, is still here. It is the same substance and it cannot be taken away. Even though there seems to be material lack, there is plenty of substance for all. You stand in the very midst of it. As you lay hold of substance with your mind, make it permanent and enduring. Realize your oneness with it. You are unified with living substance, which is God, your all-sufficiency. From this substance you were created, in it you live and move and have your being, by it you are fed and prospered.

Spiritual substance is steadfast and enduring. It has never fluctuated with market reports. It does not decrease in "hard times" nor increase in "good times." It cannot be hoarded away to cause a deficiency in supply and a higher price. It cannot be exhausted. It is ever the same, constant, abundant, freely circulating and available.

Give time to meditating on substance. Sit quietly and invite it to come alive in your mind and your whole being. With practice this will become easier. I have experienced substance as light and love. When this happens to you, you will know that you are touching the presence of substance, pure divine energy.

The more you become intimately acquainted with substance, the happier, healthier, more prosperous and peaceful you will be.

You do not need to pray for more substance because all substance is available to you right where you are now. Pray for an expanded consciousness of substance and for the ability to receive more. Remember: Giving is the first part of receiving. Give what you expect to receive!

The only time is now. The present is the only time for you to act in. (Refer to my book, NOW Power!)

Be absolutely clear about what you desire. Have a clearly defined mental picture of your desires in your imagination. In other words, have a definite mental equivalent of what you want. You cannot afford to be nebulous or hazy concerning this. Substance responds best and more easily to clear mental images.

Rather than focusing upon visible supply, always let the power of your thought be upon limitless spiritual substance. Although you do not actually see spiritual substance with your physical eyes, you do "see" it with your faith and imagination. Accept that riches manifest for you according to your ability to take hold of substance with your mind. Through this course of study you are increasing your ability to do this and to prosper.

Substance is plastic. You mold and shape it with your mind and imagination and it manifests in your life accordingly. Look to and depend entirely upon substance and you will be unaffected by recessions, hard times, or negative conditions.
