Your Invisible Power

How to Increase Your Faith

· 2 min read

But you ask, “How can I speak the word of Faith when I have little or no faith?” Every living thing has faith in something or somebody. Faith is that quality of Power which gives the Creative Energy a corresponding vitality, and the vitality in the word of Faith you use causes it to take corresponding physical form. Even intense fear is alive with faith. You fear smallpox because you believe it possible for you to contract it. You fear poverty and loneliness because you believe them possible for you. It is the Faith which understands that every creation had its birth in the womb of thought-words, that gives you dominion over all things, your lesser self included, and this feeling of faith is increased and intensified through observing what it does.

Your constant observation should be of your state of consciousness when you did; not when you hoped you might, but feared it was too good to be true. How did you feel that time when you simply had to bring yourself into a better frame of mind and did, or you had to have a certain thing and got it? Live these experiences over again and again—mentally—until you really feel in touch with the self which knows and does, and then the best there is, is yours.

In brief

Nobody is without faith. Read the summaryHide the summary

Nobody is without faith. Every living thing has faith in something or somebody. Faith is the quality of Power that gives the Creative Energy its vitality, and that vitality in the word you speak makes the word take physical form. Fear is faith too. You fear illness, poverty and loneliness because you believe they could happen to you. Behrend holds that the Faith which understands that every creation is born in the womb of thought-words gives you dominion over all things, your lesser self included, and that this faith grows as you watch what it does. Her method is to recall the times you really did rise into a better frame of mind or get what you needed. Live those moments over in your mind until you feel in touch with the self which knows and does.

Key ideas

  • Every living thing has faith. The question is only what that faith rests on.
  • Fear is faith turned toward what you believe is possible for you, so the power to believe is already at work in you.
  • Faith gives the Creative Energy its vitality, and the word of Faith takes physical form to match.
  • Faith grows as you observe what it does.
  • Behrend's practice is to relive, again and again, your state of mind at the times you did succeed, until you feel the self which knows and does.
