Within you is an inexhaustible source of power, if you can but contact it. That power can heal you, and it can inspire you by telling you what to do and how to do it. It can give you peace of mind, and , above all, it can give you direct knowledge of God. That power is scientific prayer. There is no problem that prayer cannot overcome and no good thing that it cannot bring into your life.
This is the message of the whole Bible. It was summed up by Jesus when he said,
…the kingdom of God is within you (Luke 17:21).
This truth was dramatically illustrated by an incident in real life. The body of a tramp, clad in rags, was discovered near a lime kiln where he had evidently crept for warmth. After the autopsy his clothes were torn up to be put into the incinerator, and sewn into the lining of the trousers was a bank note for a large amount. Unquestionably the original owner of the suit had had it sewn in there for safety, and for some unknown reason lost track of it.
Consider the situation! This poor hobo had sat down many a time to lukewarm coffee– and all the time he was sitting on a thousand dollars. People may have plenty of money and yet be hobos for health or happiness or spiritual experience. Riches do not become wealth until they are realized. Cash your bill at the Bank of Heaven and make it productive.
But my God shall supply all your need… (Philippians 4:19)
To realize our spiritual wealth we must commune daily with God and live spiritually, as well as physically. So long as we are focused on the physical and limit our daily communion with God, we will not be able to fully access our spiritual power.
So today, if one is feeling tired, stressed out and at wits end; then quit depending on wits and begin depending of God. This does mean lip service. It does mean thinking, feeling and acting in harmony with God and in obedience to God’s will. It works.
Cashing in on God,
