Foreword By:
The Reverend Doctor
Johnnie Colemon

Pay NO attention to the puny headlines of the day. Focus ALL your attention on your Eternal Strengths and Divine Purpose.

The reason you are reading this book is because you are exceptional. You have decided not to be part of the crowd that is driven by the hysteria of the moment. Of course, there are layoffs and downsizing of certain man-made enterprises. That is a result of their consciousness, their state of mind, their inner and outer awareness. Because they believe there are “difficult times” ahead for their businesses, they plan for scarcity. The laws of the universe are just and fair, and reward them with the scarcity that they had planned to experience.

But, as I tell my congregation, and am now telling you: YOU ARE DIFFERENT. You know that if one door is closing, it is because another one is opening. You know that it is the Divine Will that you and every individual on the face of this earth should live a healthy, happy, and prosperous life. You know that there is a dream in your heart, which will bless the world. Just think of it, you may have a dream, a deep God-given desire to operate a business. This business, when fully developed, will provide high quality products and services. This business will pay fair wages and bonuses. Your associates will have good housing, send their children to good schools, and become leaders in their churches and communities. All people affected by your business will enjoy happy, healthy, prosperous lives.

We use the word, Spirit, to represent that Invisible Energy and Intelligence that brought forth the entire universe and most especially you and me. Spirit is present within you. Spirit speaks from the crown of your being as Divine ideas. The ideas are being made known to you 24 hours per day, 7 days a week. These Divine ideas come fully packed, clothed with every piece of information and guidance that you need to bring them into full manifestation. Your mission is to develop a consciousness of oneness with Spirit. Then, you will be increasingly aware of the absolute, total goodness that Spirit seeks to express through you. Like a baker who molds dough into delicious breads, pie crusts, cakes, and other delights, you will mold the divine energies into enterprises and ventures that bless you and the entire world.

How do you get started? Learn the Universal Principles that govern all of life and apply them to bless yourself and your world. The prospering results in the millions or billions will “Be added unto you.” Reading the insights in this book is a great beginning. I know this because the Author is a “Johnnie Colemon Baby”, who grew up in our church, Christ Universal Temple, based in Chicago. He and his wife, Karen Mason-Matthews, (also a “Johnnie Colemon Baby”) are now blessing the world by making Universal Principles known to the world through the Internet, seminars, and publications. Dr. Cuttie Bacon, III, a retired educator, had labored for over a decade to bring forth a book on teaching children to become millionaires. After attending our basic course in Truth Principles, he was able to finish his book in a matter of months. Now, children and parents all over the world are benefiting from his spiritually sound, practical ideas. Les Brown, whom many know as ‘Mr. Motivator’, was trained in our ministry and incorporates the Universal Principles in his lessons to millions on radio, TV, personal appearances, and the written word.

The Universal Principles are:

1. The Omnipresence of God.

Everything that exists or ever will exist is made out of the body of God, and comes forth in varying degrees of manifestation. Thus, every circumstance or thing that you meet in life is simply God energy waiting to be molded into some useful pattern for this world.

2. Divinity of Man.

Each individual on earth has divine spiritual capacities. You and all others around you can mold divine energies into useful patterns for the world. You and all around you can express the divine ideas of love, wisdom, power, life, and substance in your life fully.

3. Value and Power of Thought.

It is a truism that what “You think about you bring about”. Watch your surroundings and yourself to see how efficient this truism can be. Change your pattern of thought and you change the pattern of events in your life.

4. Practicing the Presence.

When you are quiet enough long enough, you become aware of the high wisdom that is within you. Through your own method of prayer and meditation, you make contact with your inner Spirit that reveals the “orderly knowledge” you need to be blessed and to bless others.

5. Law of Demonstration.

What you are on the inside shows up on the outside. As you build your consciousness, your awareness, of Spirit’s magnificent presence in you, you will be drenched in joy. This spiritual joy will serve as the magnet for attracting millions and more to you. But, the real prize will be the peace of mind and soul satisfaction that comes from working totally with God.
