The Law of Attraction - Rule #5

Glorify God

As mentioned in the first article of the series, every law has a certain set of rules that governs it. Just like the road speed law, the Law of Attraction was created to benefit us. However the misuse or disobedience to any rule holds certain consequences. Many times these consequences only come much later. We don't have to obey these rules, in fact there are many benefits if we decide to disobey the rules (like getting to your destination faster), but with this decision comes responsibility; the responsibility to be willing enough to bear the consequences it holds.

"And whatever you may ask in My name, that I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son." Joh 14:13

The fifth and last rule is to glorify God in all the things you have asked for and have received. This rule is more like a golden thread running through all the other rules. It links to all four rules and acts as a channel for all the positive energy contained in the principles to flow through to every rule. In the end it is principles that make us succeed to apply every rule and it is the positive energy in these principles that inspires us to keep on applying them.

To glorify God means, among other, to be grateful for what you have received and haven't received yet, to be faithful and to be patient; particularly in the times where you are waiting for things you cannot see yet, to happen.

When you have asked for a car, there is normally a period wherein you have to wait for it to become a reality. In this period, your attitude of gratitude towards your current car and your patience and faithfulness for it to come into fulfillment acts a channel for you to stay positive and it is these very principles that glorify God.

All five rules come down to one very important thing: what source do you focus on? What you focus on is what you attract towards yourself. You can either focus on yourself or you can focus on God as the source of all principles.

It is true that the law of attraction is applicable on every person, whether they believe in it or not but it is also true that it can only have one creator (which I believe is God). Whether people believe in Him or not, He has set the rules as well as the consequences of this law. The law of attraction is applicable on everybody, whether they believe in Him or not. It is only the consequences that change.

The law of attraction is a very powerful law and influence people in a negative and a positive way depending on how they use it. The moment people use all 5 rules, it is impossible for the law of attraction to influence anyone in a negative way. Imagine if people follow the rules.
