So far, we’ve been working on Demolition of Physical and Mental issues that create blocks to achieving the rich and abundant prosperity flow that is ours to have. Now let’s look at the third area we need to demolish: Emotional Error!

Emotional Demolition is tough! It means we really do need to release those grudges … and the begrudges (like when we begrudge someone else financial windfall, or promotion, etc.) We love the quote from Buddy Hackett: I don’t hold grudges against people; while I’m holding the grudge, they’re out dancing!”

Here’s a great way to begin your demolition of the internal emotions that can play havoc with your prosperity consciousness: Give your emotional voices a name. Your cast might include:

  • Unforgiving Ursula
  • Dramatic Diva
  • Critical Crabbie
  • Judging JoJo
  • Begrudging Bella

You get the idea! It just means listening to those voices you hear from your “not so loving side” and naming them accordingly! Then, empower yourself as Director, and get serious with these characters – write them out of your life script!

Then comes the forgiveness work. As you realize you are bringing up the same person again and again, it’s a signal that you need to let that person go! Here is a great blanket affirmation to help us with this one. As individuals come to your mind who may be creating blocks for you, simply picture them in your mind and say:

I fully and freely forgive you. I release all judgments, resentments, criticisms, and unforgiveness, and transform that energy into good. I hold you to your highest good, and affirm only the best for you.

Also, emotionally, be kind to yourself! We are spiritual beings having a human experience! The humanness means we get to grow! It’s a process! This week, become very aware of the emotional bondage you have created within yourself, and begin to untie those bonds and let that baggage go.

In the last article, we explored the first pillar of Prosperity: Demolition. We took a look at the first of four areas that we can institute a Demolition, preparing for the abundant flow of prosperity in all areas of our life: Physical Realm.

This article focuses on the second area of Demolition we can work on, which is in the Mental Realm. Charles Fillmore said, “Thoughts are things and occupy space in mind. We cannot have new or better ones in a place already crowded with old, weak, inefficient thoughts. A mental housecleaning is even more necessary than a material one.”

Listen to your mental thoughts about prosperity. Be aware of your belief in “only-ness.” For example, I only have x amount of money; I only have this much food; I only have this stupid, low-paying job; etc. Transform your language to focus on the joy of what you have, blessing it and allowing it to be more than it appears.

On Good Morning America, we saw a segment where they sent an expert fashion guy to a woman’s house. He raided her closet, and immediately created four new, very trendy outfits from things she already had in the closet! Using that idea, here’s your adventure: Become aware of where you are mentally affirming “only-ness.” It may be with your clothes, your house décor, your finances, your relationships, or some other area of your life. Once you identify your “only-ness” area, see how you can create something new and different out of things you already have within that area.

Charles Fillmore had another great quote, which I have renamed the Fillmore Challenge! He said, “Never make an assertion, no matter how true it may look on the surface, that you would not want to see manifest in your life.” This is a perfect example of demolition in the mental realm. Every time you become aware of thoughts of lack or fear, demolish them! Refuse to give them any parking time in your consciousness! Only by getting rid of the error thinking can we clear the way for the power of prosperity thinking to make a home!

Next article, we will discuss Demolition on the Emotional Realm!

Bil & I believe prosperity is living faithfully, joyfully, and confidently at the speed of your Christ consciousness. That’s our definition! When you do that, you are in a place of KNOWING that you will never lack, regardless of what situation or appearance of lack life may throw at you!

True prosperity is the consciousness of God as the inexhaustible, constant, everywhere present resource, unfailing and ready for all. God is not a Being out there withholding our good; it is us who are not truly embracing the principles which allow us to receive our good.

We’ve heard so much about Prosperity – so why isn’t it always working for us? It just might be because we don’t truly grasp the foundational principles. We get some of them, some of the time – but just imagine what we could do if we got them all, all the time! So we would like to offer the metaphor of pillars: imagine 4 strong, solid pillars, supporting your prosperity consciousness. If any one of these pillars is weak or missing, it just won’t hold up and support your complete prosperity Consciousness!

Over the next several articles, we’ll be discussing these pillars – what they mean, the Truth Principles behind them, and a few practical ways to begin demonstrating each one, to make it LIVE for you! Let’s start with the first pillar.

Pillar 1: Demolition!

Sounds extreme? It should! Think about the popular TV show Extreme Makeover, Home Edition. Before this famous crew can begin building the perfect home for a deserving family, they need to implement a Demolition of the old house. But they don’t just tear it down in a boring way. This team creates a CELEBRATION out of the demolition process. That is the spirit we want to approach our demolition pillar – not with any guilt, regret, or shame. Celebrate the decision to release what is blocking your good, so you are open and receptive to receive what is yours to have. Demolition is really important, because it is a visible symbol that we believe in God as the inexhaustible source. We are releasing, letting go, knowing that something far better is there for us. We need to create some demolitions on four levels: Physical; Mental; Emotional; and Spiritual.

PHYSICAL Demolition: The physical world of things is an outer manifestation of what’s going on within us, so it is very important to be aware of it. When our outer world is cluttered, unorderly, and overwhelming, it is a signal that we are out of sync on the spiritual realm. So we want to practice the act of demolition on the physical clutter in our life, releasing things that are no longer serving us.

Giving stuff away is good, but here’s an adventure that will really amp up your Prosperity Consciousness. Look around your house and find one thing you like, but that you are not using at all. Then think about someone you know who could use it, would absolutely love it, and would truly get great joy from having it. Then give it to them. Free, no strings attached. For the joy of giving!

(Example from Cher: My mother had a beautiful set of green crystal etched goblets someone gave her and my dad as a wedding gift. They NEVER used them – they were too fragile and beautiful for everyday use. She gave them to us, and we love them; we use them often, just to drink water from! She gets excited every time she visits, and sees them being used!)

This week, look for ways to perform a “Demolition” on the physical realm of your being. Release things that are no longer serving you and see what happens!

Next article, we will explore the Mental Realm for Demolition!
