"Think and Grow Rich," by Napoleon Hill

I know back in 1937 when Napoleon Hill wrote this book he was criticized by Christians for implying everyone could become financially rich. I can not say it is God’s will that everyone be monetarily rich. But it is His desire that we are all to be richly blessed and live an abundant life.

The words prosperity and abundance does not always mean financially. Hill's book was written to teach us the secrets behind creating wealth in all areas of our life including our bank accounts. But Hill's teachings applied to all areas of lives including health, relationships, family, careers, education, wisdom and spirituality.

I believe the teachings of this book are supported by scripture including the many universal principles which are introduced within this book, one being the Law of Attraction.

But it does not stop there. You need the Holy Spirit to give you guidance and direction.
The Holy Spirit will teach you how to use these universal laws to manifest God’s pupose into your life. The use of these laws without the Holy Spirit can be like a kid in a candy store. You may get what you want but end up getting sick at the same time.

By carefully listening to the Holy Spirit He will keep you safe. He loves you and knows your every need. He will teach you wisdom and insight to the things of God.

I am speaking from experience. I have learned to be content with very little so that I might be blessed with abundance. 1Phil. 4:11-13.

Right now I step out in faith with very little except for the message that God has given me, wisdom, understanding, and the Holy Spirit’s love and guidance.

I ask for your prayers and support.
