My Word Does Accomplish
"Since thought is a definite, dynamic, creative, consciously directed and intelligent energy, I know that a thought of Truth will definitely neutralize a negative argument. I am on guard to protect my own word by knowing that it is the activity of Spirit through me and as such cannot be denied. In effective prayer, I realize that a Power greater than myself consciously acts with creative intelligence upon my word. In this way, I free myself from a sense of personal responsibility, while, at the same time, remaining aware that even spiritual laws must be definitely used, if they are to provide tangible results in my experience.
I seek to believe with absolute conviction that my word will not return unto me void, and I do this when I realize that spirtual laws execute themselves, just as do other laws of nature. I know that my word penetrates every unbelief in my mind, casts out all fear, removes all doubt, clears away every obstacle, and permits that which is enduring, perfect, and true to be perceived by my mind. I provide faith, acceptance, and a joyous expectancy that all the statements I make in my affirmative prayers and treatments are not only true, but that they will be carried out as I have spoken. As my word is done with this sense of reliance upon the Law of Good, I know that 'my word will not return unto me void,' but 'shall accomplish that whereunto it is sent.'"
