Our Desires One With Prayer

Through devotion, all your desires can be turned into declarative power, blessing God that it is so, declaring your desire to be fulfilled now. Sometimes our desires distract us, we are wishing so hard for something and fearing disappointment lest it will not come out just as we want it, and then there is agitation and disturbance. Give all your desires to the Spirit. See that everything--- every single desire--- is a prayer, and learn to bless God that it is now come to pass. “I thank thee, Father, that thou hast heard me,” said Jesus at the tomb of Lazarus, before the work of raising him from the dead was accomplished. Learn to say, “It is so, it is so, it is so,” for every wish of your heart, and then do not trouble yourself about it but when you see it come to pass, acknowledge it and be glad. So shall you pray the prayer of the righteous man--- the right-thinking man--- and your devotion, your “prayer without ceasing” be a perpetual accomplishment.

Those who will remember to declare their wishes already come to pass are placing themselves as the instruments of God to benefit this whole world. There comes a wishing that is so righteous and good, that is such a blessing for everybody, that, when you are wishing for anything, you are simply voicing God’s desire. Then you must take the next step for its accomplishment. Declare it is so. It is done now. It is finished. It is, already.
