A Prosperity Treatment

Cover of Prosperity

Twenty-Third Psalm
(Revised)

The Lord is my banker; my credit is good.
He maketh me to lie down in the consciousness of omnipresent abundance;
He giveth me the key to His strongbox.
He restoreth my faith in His riches;
He guideth me in the paths of prosperity for His name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk in the very shadow of debt,
I shall fear no evil, for Thou art with me;
Thy silver and Thy gold, they secure me.
Thou preparest a way for me in the presence of the collector;
Thou fillest my wallet with plenty; my measure runneth over.
Surely goodness and plenty will follow me all the days of my life,
And I shall do business in the name of the Lord forever.

by Charles Fillmore, Prosperity, 1915.

If some is good, more must be better, right?

In our culture we are so accustomed to messages that tell us that bigger, taller, and faster is better. We need more of this, that and the other. A quarter pound hamburger is good. Surely the half pound must be better. We super size everything from our food to our houses, in an attempt to satisfy our emotional needs and wants.

Partnership

Who are the important partners in your life and, in particular, your financial life? Your spouse? Your parents? Your boss or place of employment? Your clients?

The funny thing about money is that we often get so tied up in our heads with the partnering, planning, preparing and implementation of our “financial strategies” that we rarely begin at the beginning.
