The Power Of Affirmative Prayer - Peace Is

Blessings and welcome to The Path to Freedom and today's Power of Prayer space.

My name is Daniel Ortego and as always I'm deeply grateful that you are choosing to join me,

That you're choosing to tune in into a moment of expanding our consciousness and raising our vibration through the means of prayer,

As we're doing today.

So prayer,

Before we move into the actual prayer,

Let me just briefly speak to what prayer is.

Prayer is,

Obviously there are different modalities of prayer,

But the modality that I favor and that I practice is called the Affirmative Prayer.

It's also called the Six Step Spiritual Mind Treatment and that goes to show that prayer is not about asking or begging or beseeching an external deity for anything,

But prayer is about us treating our minds,

Going to work within ourselves to know,

To feel that all is well.

To know and to feel that all the good that we desire,

It's already here.

We're not lacking anything,

We're not missing anything.

It's not out there somewhere,

But it is in here.

As we move into that consciousness,

As we move into that vibration,

We become the vehicles and the vessels for that,

Whatever the good is,

To emerge from within us.

So that is what prayer is.

So the theme for this particular prayer is Peace Is.

Peace Is.

And so in this moment,

I invite us all to make ourselves comfortable,

I invite us to close our eyes and open our hearts,

Open our minds,

And let the prayer do its thing.

And so in this moment,

How profoundly grateful I am,

My goodness,

How grateful I am that I get to be here in this moment,

That I get to come back to this moment,

To the nowness of this moment,

That I get to step out of time.

How grateful I am for the accessibility of the nowness of this moment and the peace that is always here,

That is inherent within the nowness of this moment.

For the joy that is inherent within the nowness of this moment,

For the love,

The harmony,

The wholeness,

The abundance that are all here,

Fully present in every single moment.

And I'm grateful that we have the ability that we get to,

We have the privilege,

We're blessed enough to be able to step out of time,

To be able to step out of past and present and future,

And bring ourselves into the nowness of this moment,

Into the eternal moment,

That which is beyond time,

That we may know,

That we may feel the peace that is here,

Regardless of conditions,

Regardless of circumstances,

That we may know,

That we may feel the joy that is here,

The harmony that is here,

The wholeness that is here,

Regardless of conditions and circumstances.

I'm so,

So grateful.

So so,

I'm grateful for this breath.

I'm grateful for this heartbeat.

I'm grateful for the air in my lungs.

I'm grateful for the smile on my face.

I'm grateful that I get to here,

That I have eyes to see with,

That I have taste buds that I may taste,

That I have nerve cells in my body allowing me to sense.

Oh,

There's so much to be grateful for in this beautiful moment.

So much to be grateful for in this beautiful moment.

And I'm grateful for you.

I'm grateful that you're choosing to tune in.

I'm grateful that you're choosing to participate.

I'm grateful for your willingness to step out of stories and beliefs,

To release and let go of conditions and circumstances,

And come back,

Come back,

Come back,

Come back to now,

That we may be lifted onto higher vibrations,

That we may be pulled out of contracted and constricted ways of thinking and being.

And from this space of gratitude,

I so recognize God as the loving presence,

The one mind,

The one power,

The one life,

The one source of everything,

The one intelligence,

The one consciousness,

The one peace,

The one peace,

Fully present in every space,

In every place,

In every being,

In every object,

Being that there are no dualities in God,

There are no opposites in God,

There's no God in something else,

But God is everything.

God is every single blade of grass,

God is every single leaf on any tree,

Every single ant,

God is every single snowflake,

Every single raindrop,

Every single sunbeam,

God is the air,

The wind,

God is every cell in our bodies,

Every molecule in all of creation,

God is the stillness,

God is the silence,

God is the known and the unknown,

God is the seen as well as the unseen,

Spirit is that which we can comprehend and sense and that which we cannot comprehend and that which we cannot sense,

God is every star,

Every galaxy,

Every black hole,

Every music,

Every word,

Every vibration,

It is all God,

There's no space where God is not,

There's no place where God is not,

Which means that there's no space that we can ever be where God is not fully present,

There's no place we can ever go where God is not fully present,

Because God only shows up fully and freely,

God cannot compromise itself,

God cannot diminish itself or divide itself into parts,

But wherever God is,

The fullness of God is,

All of the love,

All of the peace,

All of the harmony,

All abundance,

Wholeness,

Wherever God is,

All of these are,

And as God is all that there is,

All of these are everywhere,

And this loving presence,

This one mind,

This one power,

It is always for itself,

It is always benevolent,

Always seeking to reveal more and more and more and more and more of that which it is,

Always seeking to come into every great and grand expressions of itself,

So God cannot ever be against itself,

God cannot ever compromise itself or contradict itself,

But it is always for itself,

It is always in state of affirmation,

Of yes,

And this loving presence also always expresses itself perfectly,

Eternally sourcing and fueling and finding itself,

Sustaining,

Maintaining itself,

And then there's we,

You and I,

Wherever,

Whenever,

Whoever we are,

We're always one with this,

The one,

Always in absolute oneness,

Always in absolute unity with this loving presence,

We're all unique,

Perfect,

Whole and complete emanations of the one,

Holographic images of God,

Of Spirit,

Meaning that we cannot ever be separated,

We cannot ever be distant or distanced,

Any more than the wave can ever be distant or distanced from the ocean,

Any more than that sunbeam can ever be distant or distanced from the sun,

But we're always one with,

We're always one with,

There is no separation in Spirit,

There is no separation in God,

There is only absolute oneness,

And from this awareness,

I know that we're all blessed,

That we're all blessed,

That the peace that we so long for,

It is right here,

The peace that we desire,

It is right here,

It is who and what we are,

It is inherent within us,

As we and God are one and God is peace,

As we and God are one and God is peace,

It means that we are peace,

That we are peace,

Peace is never gone,

Peace has never left us,

It is right here,

It is who and what we are,

And as we come back to the nowness of this moment,

As we release and let go of attachments to stories and beliefs and external conditions and circumstances,

To our perceptions that they need to be something,

In order for us to know peace,

As we release and let go of all of this,

Peace emerges,

It is not given to us from the world,

It emerges from within us,

Just like the sunflower emerges out of the sunseed,

Sunflower seed,

Just like the oak tree emerges out of the acorn,

Just like the apple tree emerges out of the apple seed,

So does peace emerge from within us,

Because we are never separate from peace,

As God is all that there is,

And as we and God are one,

As God is peace,

We cannot ever be separated from peace,

If we could,

It would mean that we would be separated from God,

And that cannot be,

That cannot be,

Because God cannot divide itself into parts,

God cannot divide itself into parts,

So the peace that we are seeking,

It is right here,

We're blessed with it in this moment,

In every single moment,

If we but choose to see it,

So when we turn our attention away from what we don't wish to experience,

When we turn our attention toward,

When we turn within,

To this breath,

To this breath,

To this breath,

When we lean into affirmations such as all is well,

Such as something wonderful is happening,

Such as everything is working for the highest good,

When we lean into that,

Peace arises from within us,

We are all encoded with peace,

We're all blessed with the peace that passes human understanding,

That peace is not given to few select,

Or to few chosen individuals,

God has no favorites,

God doesn't qualify certain people and disqualify others,

We're all blessed,

We're all qualified,

We're all called to know peace,

To be the peace that we already are,

That we've always been,

That we'll always be,

So I know,

I know that something wonderful is happening right now,

That something wonderful is happening right now,

I affirm,

Decree and declare that peace is emerging in ways beyond our imagination,

Completely independent of conditions and circumstances,

Totally regardless of what seems to be on the surface,

Peace is here,

Peace is here,

We are peace,

The peace that passes human understanding,

It is the truth and the essence of who and what we are,

And yes,

The sunflower seed cannot choose to be anything else but a sunflower,

To be anything else but a sunflower,

It cannot choose to be a tulip,

It cannot choose to be a daffodil,

It cannot choose to be a slug,

Or a deer,

Or a bear,

That is true for nature,

But we do get to choose,

We do get to choose,

We're all called,

We're all invited,

We all have the opportunity to choose peace now,

To choose to turn our attention away from conditions and circumstances,

To choose to come back to the breath,

And in doing so release our attachments to stories and beliefs and perceptions and opinions and judgments and thoughts as to what should and should not be,

We all have that ability,

Peace is a choice,

We all have a mandate to choose it,

We all have,

We're all charged with the responsibility of choosing it,

But it is here,

We're lacking nothing,

We're missing nothing,

Everything that we need to keep moving forward,

Everything that we need to keep,

To allow for the peace that we are,

To emerge,

Everything that we need to be the peace,

We already have it,

Because we are it,

We're lacking nothing,

We're missing nothing,

Truly all is well in this moment,

In every single moment,

God is good,

And as God is the only thing that is happening,

As God is the only thing here and now,

In every here,

In every now,

It means that good is here,

So all is well,

All is well,

Something wonderful is happening,

Everything is working for the highest good,

So we're invited to be the peace,

We're invited to feel the peace,

To call it forth from the depth of our being,

From the core of our souls,

In this moment,

In this moment,

In this moment,

For this,

And so so much more,

I give thanks,

I give thanks knowing that the highest possibility,

The highest expression of peace that we can possibly be,

That that expression,

That that version,

That that possibility already exists in the infinite mind of God,

I give thanks knowing that our future selves,

The peaceful,

Beautiful,

Radiant expression of peace,

Is reaching back through time and space,

Offering us their hands,

Saying,

Hey,

You made it,

You made it,

You made it,

I am here,

I am more peaceful than you can ever imagine,

I am here,

You made it,

Keep leaning in,

Keep surrendering,

Keep coming back to peace,

Keep be the peace,

Keep choosing the peace,

You made it,

Peace is what you are,

I give thanks knowing that this is so,

That this is happening now,

And as I release the word,

I do so fully,

Fully,

Fully knowing that this is already done,

The peace that passes human understanding,

It's here,

It's here,

It's given freely,

It's given fully,

We are it,

We cannot ever not be it,

So I surrender to this doneness,

I allow the isness of this to demonstrate and manifest itself,

Allow the peace to demonstrate and manifest itself here in this dimension,

In essence through every single one of us,

It is happening now,

It is happening now,

It is happening now,

It is happening with ease and grace,

And I let it,

I let it,

I let it,

So it is,

So be it,

So shall it be,

So we are,

So God is,

Amen,

Amen,
