SHORT TALKS BY DR. DAVE THAT CAN CHANGE YOUR
LIFE

CHRISTIAN THINKING
IS ALWAYS POSITIVE, BUT POSITIVE THINKING IS NOT ALWAYS CHRISTIAN.
God
created positive thinking to be the natural software for your mind.
It's the way He designed your mind to work. Your mind functions best
under the influence of positive beliefs using a positive operating
system.
Negative thinking is never Christian. Negative, critical,
depressing thoughts do not come from God. They are an exercise in
self-destruction and indicate that a negative operating system
controls your mind.
THE POSITIVE CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITY OFFERS
FREE COURSES TO ANYONE WHO WANTS TO BECOME A MORE POSITIVE PERSON.
THREE TYPES OF COURSES
Green - Short Courses
Blue - Intensive Longer Courses
Red - Audio Courses
ZERO NEGATIVE THINKING
Negativity is a powerful tool for
destroying a life. Every time you say the word no, your life gets
smaller. Your opportunities recede further into the distance.
You must extinguish negativity when it first appears. Sniff it
out when it is small, and snuff it out while it is weak.
|
POWER OF POSITIVE EXPECTATIONS
You don't get what you want in life. You get what you expect.
It doesn't matter what other people think. It's your
expectations that count. As you believe, so shall it be done unto you.
If you want to live
your dreams, positive expectations must rule your world.
|
HOW TO CONTROL YOUR EMOTIONS
Although your thoughts
control your emotions, it's your emotions that rule your world.
You can't change
your emotions directly, but you change them indirectly by changing the
way you think. The wheel of emotion always turns in the direction of
what you put into your mind.
|
HOW POSITIVE THINKING WORKS
Positive thinking
works because it is the natural software for your mind. Positive
thinking truly is the right type of thinking. It's more than a good
idea. It's the way your mind was designed to work.God designed your
mind to function best when it's under the influence of positive
beliefs, and when a positive operating system controls your mind

POSITIVE WEBSITES THAT PUSH YOUR MIND IN A
POSITIVE DIRECTION
|
Dr. Abbott is not a minister of religion and
has no affiliation with any specific church or religious organization.
He is not attempting to convert you to any particular church, or trying to
compress you into a spiritual mold. True spirituality sets you free.
Dr. Abbott approaches spirituality from the
perspective of a physician. Lots of people are spiritually sick, and they
need to meet the Great Physician, God, who can heal them and give
them a new way of thinking and feeling.
The most powerful and most positive force in
the universe is God's love. When God's love gets inside your heart and
mind, it changes the way you think and feel. When your mind is full
of thoughts consistent with God's love, then your mind is exactly the way
God means for it to be. When your heart is full of emotions that are
consistent with God's love, then your emotions are healthy, and they are
exactly the way God means for them to be.
Dr. Abbott's specialty is restoring inner
vision so people can look at the world through eyes of possibility and
love. In order to make that happen, people need to experience the
power of God's love. They need to learn how to max out on God's
love.
If you are looking for a statement of faith, a
spiritual insurance policy, or want to be compressed into a spiritual
mold, you are at the wrong place. If you want to experience the power of
God's love to get a new way of thinking and feeling, you are definitely in
the right place.
If you want to grow spiritually, then you need
to learn how to Max Out On God's Love.
What does it mean to Max Out on God's Love?
1. You dare to call God
your Father.
2. You have a personal
relationship with God based on love. You fall in love with God.
3. You send your love
back to God through loving other people. You fall in love with other
people.
4. You practice God's
presence every day all day long.
5. You give up your need
to be right and switch the focus of your life to love.
6. You move in the
direction of the dream that God placed in your heart regardless of the
consequences. You act as if that dream is possible and work each day to
make it happen.
7. You use prayer to do a
reality check and align yourself with God's plan for your life.You trust
God's plan because it's good for you and perfect for the type of person
you are.
8. You open your heart
and mind to the power of God's love. His love washes the toxic waste out
of your mind and heals your damaged emotions.
9. You live congruently as a whole person
with your intellect, emotions, and will all heading in the same
direction. You become an Unstoppable, Consistently Positive, Endlessly
Persistent, Doer of Dreams.

on God's love and putting good things into your mind.

spiritually. This is your chance to become a new person with a
new way of thinking and feeling. If that's what you want, then this
course is for you.

When you look at a newborn baby, you don't see any signs of
depression or anxiety. God gave that baby a clean mind and a
pure heart, and it takes years of thinking toxic distorted
thoughts to arrive at the place where anxiety and depression
compose a significant portion of its thought life. It requires
years of training to become a miserable unhappy human being.
When you have been thinking
negative and limiting thoughts for twenty years, you should
expect to experience some anxiety and depression.
On the other
hand, when you start thinking positive thoughts, the chemistry
of your brain shifts in a positive direction, and you start
feeling better.
You
are responsible for the chemistry of your brain. You create it
by the type of thoughts you think during the first twenty years
and subsequent years of your life.
You can create the chemistry
of depression and dysfunction, or you can create a brain
chemistry that predisposes you to joy, a positive attitude, and
achievement.
If you don't like your present chemistry, you can
change it by changing what you put into your mind.
You
need to get back to the basics of healthy thinking. You must
stop polluting your mind with toxic waste and start filling it
with good things.
Altering your brain chemistry
with pills isn't enough. You need to change what you are
putting into your mind. You need to change what you say when
you talk to your mind.
Now is the time to
accept responsibility for your mood and state of mind.
Your life will not miraculously improve on its own.
Talk to your
physician to find out if you need medication. But don't
rely only on medication. Go the whole distance and take
control of what you put into your mind.
A positive mind isn't an
accident. It's something you do on purpose. Start living with
intention and make your life better by putting good things into
your mind. Spend time each day reviewing power graphics and
repeating positive self-talk.
You can make your life as
positive as you want. All you need to do is focus on positive
things, talk about positive things, look at positive things, and
listen to positive things. Turn on your good finder and
rediscover all the good things in your life.
THE CHALLENGE YOU FACE IN DEPRESSION IS TO
CHANGE THE WAY YOU THINK
Overcoming depression is
hard, perhaps the hardest thing you will ever do.
Fighting against depression isn't a stroll in the park; it's
a dogfight. But if you decide to join the fray, you
can win the battle and drive depression from your mind.
If you want to have a mind free from depression, nobody can
stop you.
Your emotions are a
reflection of your thoughts. When you change your
thoughts, your emotions automatically change. You
don't have to battle the negative and twisted emotions
echoing in your mind. Instead, you need to learn how
to change the way you think, and emotions will naturally
take care of themselves. Like night follows day, when
your thoughts are healthy and positive, your emotions become
healthy and positive as well.
Everyone has problems, but depression is optional.
If you want to learn how to win the battle against depression, then
this seminar is for you. You have the ability to reestablish
command and control over depressing thoughts that are blowing through
your mind If you really want to win the battle against
depression, nobody can stop you.

Positive Self-Talk Red Book - A persistently positive focus creates a
consistently positive mind. The same is true of your self-talk. It must be
persistent, positive, and specific to have maximum impact. Lack of
persistentce has laid more dreams to rest in the cemetery of failure than
any other cause. There is zero chance that you will succeed on your first
attempt. If your dreams are great, You will fail again and again on your
way to the top. Before you can be great, you have to be good. Before you
can be good, you have to be bad. Before you can be bad, you have to try.
Millions of people stop at try. Thousands get stuck at bad. Hundreds quit
at good. A few go all the way to great. If you don't have persistence, you
willl never make the trip from try to bad to good to great. Positive
Self-Talk Red Book helps you develop a persistently positive focus so that
you can develop a consistently positive mind. More than one-hundred Power
Graphics contain powerful thoughts that you need to have in your mind.

Positive Self-Talk Purple Book - Living small serves no great purpose.
Living as if you are a great person is a powerful idea that changes lives,
and those who take it seriously change their world. Living as if you are
great means you live as if your dreams are possible and work each day to
make them happen. You act as if you cannot fail. In order to live as if
you are great, you have to think the way great people think, talk the way
great people talk, and act the way great people act. Great people think,
talk, and act their dreams into existence. If you ever become great, it
will be because you think great thoughts, repeat great self-talk, have
great expectations, and act as if you cannot fail. Some people wrongly
believe that change is impossible. Leopards don't change their spots, and
zebra stripes are forever. But people are different. People change their
stars. They change their stripes, and their spots disappear in an instant
of time. That instant happens the moment they develop positive
expectations and believe they have the power to change. Positive self-talk
and positive expectations can take you anywhere you want to go. Positive
Self-Talk Purple Book is now available in ebook format at
Amazon,

Everything Is Possible - Everything in your life fits into
two columns. One column is labeled possible and the other is labeled
impossible. Your job is to think as God thinks and to move
everything over to the possible column. With God, all things are
possible. Impossible doesn't exist in God's universe, and it
shouldn't exist in yours. Impossible is not in God's vocabulary, and
it shouldn't be in yours. It's time to leave the Land of
Impossibility, the Land of Addictions, and the Land of Limitations behind
and to come to the promised land where all things are possible. It's
time to get in agreement with God. It's time to think as God thinks. |

Positive
Thinking Scriptures - The Bible reveals the mind and heart
of God. It tells us how God thinks and feels about you and me.
God did not keep his thoughts to himself. It was his master plan
that we should think the thoughts of God - that we should think as God
thinks. Although it might seem presumptuous to believe that humans
can actually think the thoughts of God, we must remember that God created
us in his image, and He gave us the ability to think and feel. The
Creator of the universe actually did have a plan for our hearts and minds.
He planned to fill our hearts and minds with his love so that we can think
the thoughts of God. |
|
|
Positive
Christian Scriptures - When God loves, He loves in a big way.
He creates people in his own image and loves them with an everlasting love
that has no preconditions. We sink or swim in his ocean of love.
Scriptures from the Bible tell us how God connects with people like you
and me. Scriptures help you understand who you are and what you can
do with God's help. They teach you to trust God in every area.
You learn to do your part so that God can do his part and accomplish
things that you could never do by yourself. You suspend your
disbelief and get out of the way so that the river of faith can sweep away
your limitations. |

Attitude Of Praise
- Looking at the world through eyes of praise. Your attitude
is your way of looking at things, and it's a choice. Attitude is a
mind set. It's the way you choose to look at yourself and the world.
Jesus said, "Set your mind on God's kingdom and his way of doing things
before everything else, and all the rest will come to you as well.
Jesus made it clear that you attitude is important, and that it is a
choice. He told people to set their mind on the right things.
When they had the right attitude, God would see to it that things work
out. An attitude of praise connects you with God and reminds you of
God's work in your life. |
|
|
Affirmations Of
Praise - An affirmation is a positive declaration of something you
know to be true. An affirmation of praise is a positive declaration
that recognizes the power and presence of God working in your life at
specific times and places in concrete ways. They remind you of God's work
in the past, they focus on God's work in the present, and they affirm
God's power in the future. Praise is part of your conversation with God.
It's spiritual glue that strengthens your connection with God. The more
you praise, the more you affirm God's presence and power. The more
you praise, the more faith wells up in your heart and mind. |

Positive
Christian Psychology is simply thinking the way God thinks.
It's the way God intends for you to think and feel. It's getting in
agreement with God. When your mind is full of thoughts consistent
with God's love, your mind is exactly the way God means for it to be.
When your heart is full of emotions consistent with his love, your
emotions are healthy, and they are exactly the way God means for them to
be. This forms the cornerstone and focus of all Christian
Psychology. When you think the way that God thinks, your heart and
mind are full of God's love. Your thoughts are positive, and your
emotions are healthy. They are exactly the way God means for them to
be. |

AFFIRMATIONS FOR POSITIVE CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITY
|
I have opened my heart and mind to the power of God's love, and I dare
to call God my Father. I love God with
all my mind, all my heart, and all my strength. There is no
ambivalence in my relationship with God.
When I jump into God's ocean of love, my life is never the same. I am
born spiritually and become a new person. Old things pass away and all
tings become new. I look at the world through new eyes and listen with
new ears. I think new thoughts, take new actions, and have a new life.
God's love changes the way I think and feel. His love washes the toxic
waste out of my mind and gives me a clean mind and a pure heart. My old
way of thinking and feeling is gone. My mistakes and failures are cast
into God's ocean of love. For the first time in my life, I dare to
call God my Father and live as one of his children. God's love heals my
damaged emotions, and my negative feelings and guilt are washed away in
a tidal wave of love.
Each day I jump into God's ocean of love and have a life transforming
experience. Dabbling in it will never do. This isn't something that I
do just once and the positive effects last for a lifetime. I do it
every day for the rest of my life. For as long as I live, I will max
out on God's love.
I live in a world created and sustained
by love. The Creator of the universe surrounds me and fills my heart
with love. The presence and power of God in my life is love.
God’s love is unconditional; there is nothing I can do or must do to
earn it. It’s an eternal fact that sustains the world. It forms the
foundation for my self-esteem, and his love makes me worthy. When my
heart is full of God’s love, it’s full of his presence and power. It’s
impossible to have unconditional love in my heart without God putting it
there. Unconditional love isn’t in my chromosomes. Only God can
breathe it into my life.
God is the God of the
possible. Impossible is not found in his vocabulary, and
impossibility doesn't exist in his universe. Everything is
possible when I think the way that God thinks.
Romans 8:37-39 states: “In all these things we are more than conquerors
through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor
life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor
any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation
will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our
Lord.” This scripture states the facts of love in an unequivocal way.
There is nothing in the entire universe that can separate me from God’s
love. God is my Father, and his love floods my heart and mind and makes
me whole. There is no limit to how good my life can become when my
heart is full of God’s love.
God's plan for my life is
simple. He will take all my choices, mistakes, and failures, and
turn them into something good. My mistakes and failures are the
launching pad for God's master plan.
God loves me and accepts me the way I
am, but He loves me too much to let me stay that way. That is my
ultimate reason for hope. God is on my side. He wants to fill my heart
with his love, banish my limitations, and wash away the plague of
negative thoughts from my mind. God’s love carries away my burden of
guilt. His love not only wipes the slate clean, it also throws the
slate away. God has a plan for my life that is better than anything I
can imagine. There is no limit to how good my life can become when I
max out on the power of his love.
I
must see myself through God’s eyes and learn the facts of love.
God’s love never falters or fails. It will never stop pursuing me until
the day I die. No matter what I do, I cannot escape it. I can ignore
it or reject it, but it will not go away. God’s love surrounds and
envelops me. It continually reminds me that I can be one of his
children. I will either sink or swim in his ocean of love.
I need to think the way
that God thinks. I need to get in agreement with God. I need
to think abundance. I need to think possibility. I need to
think forgiveness for myself and others. I need to think freedom
from my past. I need to think release from my addictions. I
need to think recovery from my sicknesses. I need to think about
God's favor and love. I need to think the way God thinks.
My mistakes and failures
are no surprise to God. They are the launching pad for God's
master plan. God takes all of my mistakes and failures and turns
them into something good.
