Faith Affirming

BLOG by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer

Faith is the complete reliance on the power and goodness of Spirit and the firm belief that you are always connected to this goodness. Always affirm your faith and not your doubt. When you affirm that things might not work out, that your troubles continue to mount, that your problems are insoluble, that God has not been listening, or that you are powerless in the face of so many struggles, you are affirming doubt rather than faith. The ability to know faith and affirm it allows it to manifest in your life.

In John 14:27, Jesus said, “My peace I give to you.” This is an affirmation of faith. He certainly wasn’t suggesting that peace is very difficult to have and you must struggle for it. Jesus brought peace to everyone by affirming it. Likewise, in his healing work, he didn’t imply that we haven’t been having a great deal of success lately with leprosy, but if you listen to me you have a thirty percent chance of surviving over the next five years. Instead, he declared, “You are well,” affirming faith at the highest spiritual level, and healing took place.

You too must learn to affirm your faith in the face of doubt with thoughts that things will work out, things will improve. Think, write, and say affirmations like these:

I intend to create prosperity.

I’ll do what is necessary to eradicate this problem.

I know I am not alone.

I have faith that all is for good.

I give no energy to the negative because I know all is in divine order.

I will consult with God and know that I will be guided to do what is needed.

These are all affirmations of faith, which, when practiced, will permit you to say “no” to doubt and “yes” to life.

After listening to one of your callers, my first thought was look closer or A. Cohen's A day Rembrandt well remembers. I have been that caller and his friend. This would be a good discussion to idenifying the actally underlying problems and move past them. Thank You Dr. Dyer

Is there room for reaction before peace? There is a line in a song - Life throws you curves and you learn to swerve. Well, we have been swerving quite a bit lately. There is always the question that comes up - Why is this happening? I know what word comes up - Victim. We are being a victim.

If EVERYTHING is possible then NOTHING is IMPOSSIBLE.. so I can use my faith to create miracles.. But there is a caveat emptor and I need to know how to move beyond it. If I request something of God - what if someone else requests something in direct opposition? If we are both of equal faith.. how can we both have the same result?

I am in touch with my faith & continually experience the positive outcomes around me, now 24 yrs later with 3 kids, I'm still at constant odds with my wife who is very negative & operates from her ego. She read The Shift & it helped for about 2 months, I want to stay & remain a positive example for my kids but at what cost with all the conflict?

Vegan for 2 years, My doctor & energy healer tell me I "need" meat to bring my (blood test) numbers back to normal. Since I've been eating shellfish I no longer have low blood sugar. Can anyone help w/a different perspective on this inner struggle on living a "kind" life & taking a life for food, please?? Seems contradictory for me. thx

u can't imagine your work has done for me. sometimes we have the faith but it doesn't work in a certain area of our lives. i used to blame the power of intention that i used to have unwanted hair. i used a treatment plus changed that unwanted phenomena attractor field and than unremovable defect from birth gone almost 100%.

Desire to heal stray cat who adopted me. He has terminal illness. In first Wishes Fulfilled meditation I had a flash image of him in perfect health, glowing with light. Desire to learn mechanics of healing others without letting my ego become involved. (I am susceptible to that). Suggestions?

4 weeks ago I watched the SHIFT. I have now stopped getting in lifes way. I have followed my inner pull. I, in 1 week time, did all that was needed to get us safe from him and removed from the household. Filed for divorce AND happiness has fallen into my life.

It seems that sometimes we must hear our own inner thoughts and truths, which most of us are taught to ignore, spoken back to us from another before we can have faith in them ourselves. Thank you for speaking them so eloquently. Now that I have faith in my True Self, I am finding the same Truths echoed and reaffirmed (almost) everywhere I look.

Dr. Dyer.I have been asked to share a message that perhaps you have been seeking and/or are in need of. This message is to do the rosary with devotion for one hour every morning, and petition Mother Mary for assistance & intercession, and surrender to the will of Jesus. and that it will be a blessing if followed. (1 Corinthians 2:5)Blessings

Wayne and everyone else, I believe faith comes down to looking to your right and looking to your left to find a person that you must believe in. Faith is about believing in others because if you can believe in them you automatically include yourself. I feel life is about rounding people up and taking care of each other, no o

ne better than the other. Everyone needs to believe we are all connected. If we someone in our daily life that is struggling we should take 1 minute out of our day to acknowledge that we feel for them. We do not have to solve their individual problems but we can let them know we are there. It's like a world support group.

This is about building faith. We are not born with a sense of faith, we learn it. How do we learn it, through other peole, unless we live alone in the woods. So we need to look at each other and acknowledge each other and say, "hey, I see you and support you" . Even though they will struggle they will have faith we are there.

E Zones showed we could question brain washing imposed on us. then Spiritual Solution and that became a book I could get almost instant relief with. Have given away copies of both. Gave Anita`s Dying to be Me to a lady because I felt it would help her.Feels good Wayne, your passion is a huge inspiration for good and I love you.

Holding the faith requires a daily practice; seeing the vision in the possibility we're hoping for. It means creating an intimate relationship with the attracting essence we are formulating to become.

A powerful collection of affirmations. Most important for me is to employ them as suggested, think, write and SAY them. Equally important is for me to practice these, so I have put the printed words in a place where I face them everyday. This is a true calming and reassuring method to keep me grounded and positive. Thank you so much!
