The Creative Power of Sound

Susan, a social worker, used affirmations to overcome alcoholism, anxiety and depression. Jay, a computer programmer, used them to help him deal calmly with workplace jibes and has discovered added benefits. Andrew, a surgeon, thinks they help his patients. All three use them to get in touch with their higher self.

These powerful affirmations are called decrees. You are about to learn the Science of the Spoken Word, a method of using decrees to access the power of God inside of you. It relies on ancient principles as well as modern revelations given to Mark and Elizabeth Prophet. For thirty years, people all over the world have been using the science of the spoken Word with surprising, even life-changing results.

Take Louise, for example. She was a premed student when a friend gave her The Science of the Spoken Word, by Mark and Elizabeth Prophet . She began reading the book while living in a mountain cabin. She snuggled into her heated water bed, the only source of warmth, and read up to page 51, where she found specific instructions for decreeing.

"Sit in a comfortable straight chair," she read. "Hold your spine and head erect, your legs and hands uncrossed, and your feet flat on the floor." "Right," she told herself, laughing. It sounded pat, like a Weight Watchers commercial: Do this and you'll find God.

She wasn't about to get out of her warm bed and put her feet on the icy floor. So she said to herself, "OK, I'll try it. I'll do at least one thing that it told me to do. I'll say the words."

Louise began repeating aloud the decree 'Adoration to God" and felt an immediate burning sensation in her heart. She was astonished. In the past, she had experienced this sensation only under certain circumstances-when she was in a meditative state either horseback riding or contemplating nature. This sensation had always been her indicator that she was close to God and it had usually taken her hours to find that closeness. Now she experienced it without preparation-while lying in bed.

The burning in her heart convinced Louise that decrees worked and that they were a means of getting in touch with her Higher Self and finding inner peace. Now she uses decrees to find a feeling of closeness to God wherever she is, even while stuck in a traffic jam: "I wouldn't

be able to find that peace here in the city now if I hadn't learned how to decree."

Since her first experience in the mountain cabin, Louise has used decrees regularly. She says they have helped in every area of her life- from resolving pain connected with her mother's alcoholism to finishing college and law school and starting a professional career.
