The Universal Law of Attraction and Prayer

Prayer is associated with religious belief, but prayer is truly the response one makes in expressing the feeling of one’s deepest desires. Anyone can pray and it doesn’t matter if you attend church every day or you have never even taken a step inside one.

When one talks about faith, one speaks about faith not necessarily in religious terms, but as the degree or extent to which you believe in what you want right at that moment, and the belief that it is coming to you.

Prayer is also a form of meditation. Mantras are commonly used as a way to focus and meditate, and a mantra can certainly be a prayer as simple as “I pray for peace and love,” or “I want peace and love.” 

Prayer focuses one’s thoughts on the things one most wants. It is a conversation with a higher power and if you are not religious, that higher power is you, expanded. It is a conversation between your conscious mind, and your higher self, or that part of you containing all the wisdom. 

Prayer leads one to “oneness,” or unity with the universe.

When you become aware and pray or meditate with intention, you focus your feelings and thoughts on the things you are grateful for or want. You exponentially increase the power of those thoughts. Prayer generally encompasses basic principles of faith, gratitude and charity-giving, or thinking about others.

These are the foundational principles that nurture the proper mindset to attract the things you want into your life.  When you pray or when you meditate, you do so from a mindset of love. This helps you attract outcomes of love back to you. If you pray out of fear, anger, need, or frustration, you will attract back more of the same.

It is important to pray, or meditate in alignment with what you really want. Recognize what mindset your intentions are coming from and you will be able to manifest what you want successfully. Feelings and thoughts can be subconscious and automatic, or controlled and directed. The power of prayer depends on the faith of the individual.

When you believe strongly, the feelings you express in prayer are able to overcome obstacles.  It is the omnipotent knowing of faith that opens up the energy to creatively visualize what you want. Prayer also focuses on gratitude for what you have in the present as well as for the things that are to come.  This is the same principle you use to apply the law of attraction.

Prayer and faith are great gifts and tools. Those who have great faith regardless of what it’s placed in and believe in said faith, can use prayer as a powerful tool to harness the creative energy of the universe and create their own desired reality.

Love Thyself: The Universal Law of Attraction

The law of attraction is based on positive thoughts and intentions but it is difficult, if not impossible to find or manifest the things you really want if you do not love and respect yourself because negative emotion will be present.  Learning to accept yourself as you are and to be grateful for who you are the first steps towards taking control of your thoughts and finding the positives in everything.

 

How can we learn to love ourselves unconditionally?  The first step is to be grateful for who you are right now. 

Being grateful for who you are is the start to being able to accept your strengths and weaknesses and see them as part of the completely wonderful, lovable person you are. 

The next step is to recognize that happiness does not come from anyone or anything outside of you because you know and accept that you are already a successful, happy person.  No one can take away your happiness or the love you have for yourself. This frees you from worry, doubt and fear because no matter what happens, at the end of each day you love yourself unconditionally. 

When you get to the point of being able to love yourself, your relationships will begin to transform. You will not need to be in a relationship to find love because you already have all you need within yourself. Instead, you will begin giving away love to people without needing or expecting anything in return. 

Conflicts will fade away because you have the confidence to not only accept yourself but to accept your partner and friends for who they are.  You begin to manifest the type of relationships you have always wanted.

When you love yourself, it is easier to find the positive in others and in situations. It will help you stay focused on the positive outcomes you want for your life and you will find gratitude easier to practice as well.  It will be easier to spend more time reflecting, meditating, and visualizing because you are already in a happy place. 

Consider doing nice things that you would do for others for yourself.  Treat yourself with the same love and respect you show to others.  Daily affirmations are another good way to remind yourself of everything you love about who you are and those things that you accept about yourself.  Learning to love yourself is the foundation for finding true happiness, joy and peace.

An Unlimited Universe

According to the Universal Law of Attraction the power to create our own reality is unlimited.  The universe is limitless, an invisible energy force which, because we are all connected by pure energy to everything else in the universe, means that our power to manifest our own reality is also unlimited.

The Universal Law of Attraction is based on the concept that like energy attracts like energy and that everything, including our thoughts are composed of energy.  Simply stated, we create what we think, or if we think positive thoughts we attract positive things into our lives, and if we think negative thoughts, we attract negative things into our life.

This law is always at work in our lives whether we are conscious of it or not.

If we truly believe the universe is unlimited, our thoughts are also unlimited. The problem is, although the potential of our thoughts is unlimited we often limit our own thinking.

People are naturally influenced and affected by the people around them. If we think about a typical day, we turn on the news and rarely hear anything positive. Bad news seems to sell.

We may find it hard to be truly happy for other people’s successes, and it is easy for most of us to nag, criticize, and say negative things about others.

We get caught up in negativity; hence, we limit the ability of our thoughts to become powerful because we doubt that things can really happen the way we want them to.  We evaluate our future success based on current situations.

The Universal Law of Attraction teaches that the universe is an ocean of possibilities without limits. You need only ask with great intention and focus on the things you want to attract into your life, and believe without doubt the ability of the universe to deliver whatever that is into your life. 

Sounds too simple?  

In a way, it is. It takes work to learn how to intentionally choose and focus your thoughts to harness the power of your thoughts to manifest the things you want in life.

The good news is that there are tools and techniques that you can use to become more fully conscious of how the Universal Law of Attraction is at work in your life, and how to harness the power of positive thinking to attract into your life the things you truly want to attract from a limitless universe of possibilities.

The Universal Law of Attraction: The Power to Be Happy

The Universal Law of Attraction is based on a simple premise that like energy attracts like energy.  Most people really do want to be happy. It's not much fun to go through life depressed and angry all the time, but humans have a way of undermining their efforts to be happy.

If you are thinking about being happy, happiness is rooted in love. Maybe it is the love of another person, of having a lot of money, of being financially secure, of owning the house you have always dreamed about, of having more free time to travel, and of enjoying each day.  It is that ability to dream or visualize that makes us happy and that can truly unleash the power of our thoughts to manifest what we really want.

The problem is that even when we focus and think about the things that make us really happy, we usually get caught in a trap—the trap of negative associations. If you are thinking about your dream home for example, most of the time that a positive image is followed by a, “… but I’ll never be able to afford it!” There it is—the negative thought crept right in.

Often times we are focusing on the right things and thinking positive thoughts but our thoughts are not 100% positive. That nagging little doubt or negative thought creeps right into the midst of our positive thinking. Why does this happen?  Humans tend to measure our future success against our current situation; that is how the negativity creeps up on us.

The Universal Law of Attraction helps you learn to focus on your personal thought patterns and feelings about happiness and then teaches you ways to control your thoughts so you can move beyond comparing what you want, with what you have. You learn to stop choosing to focus on the nagging negative thoughts that lurk in your mind, and instead focus on those things that will make you truly happy.

Being happy demands a different way of thinking productively. Focus on things that make you feel happier and try to hold that feeling for as long as you can. It isn’t easy, especially in the beginning, because we are so engrained in thinking about everything through the filter of our current situation. 

Be grateful for the moments you can feel and hold onto that happiness. As you practice more and more, it becomes easier to really focus on the things that make you feel genuinely happy.  When you are able to do that, your energy frequency changes, and you begin to manifest the things you really want in your life. 

Ways to Point the Universal Law of Attraction to Your Goals for Life

The Universal Law of Attraction can be applied to any area of life.  Who can’t benefit from positive thinking, after all?   But have you really thought about the powerful ways that your thoughts can influence your life?

The Universal Law of Attraction holds that when we focus on positive thinking and the things we really want, we attract a like energy into our lives creating the reality we creatively visualize or create. 

The Universal Law of Attraction can be applied to love. Focusing on loving others and inviting that same energy back into your life through meditation, intent and creative visualization can open up new relationships, heal old relationships and bring unconditional love into your life.

Of course you need to be very clear in your intentions. Inviting unconditional love into your life may not be the same thing as inviting romantic love into your life. Stepping back and really examining what it is we truly want in our lives is the first step to harnessing the power of this law and utilizing it to transform the current state of your daily reality.

Perhaps you have children.  The Universal Law of Attraction can be applied to child rearing. Positive thoughts and actions attract similar energy and behavior from your children. If there is great discord in your home examine why? How do you speak to your children, how do you interact with your children? What is your relationship with your spouse? Use creative visualization and meditation to see your family as you would like them to be.  Speak and act with the same energy you want back from your children.

If you are looking to change careers or you want to take on more responsibility and a leadership role, focus with intent on your career goals. Think about where you want to be in five years. What does your position look like? What duties are you responsible for? How does the career or job role feel and look?  Focus on developing that positive energy and apply it to your current job regardless or whether you like it or not. Treat it like it is the perfect job for you and the chances are, changes will begin to happen. You will start attracting opportunities that fit with your ultimate vision.

In the same way as the above examples, you can apply The Universal Law of Attraction to finances, relationships, happiness, and success, even your physical well being .  If you can dream it, and visualize it, you can create it. There is no area of your life where The Universal Law of Attraction doesn’t work, and that is the beauty of this law.
