I believe that Napoleon Hill either knowingly or unknowingly (really, probably knowingly) use biblical principles when writing his “Think and Grow Rich”. The titling of the book and calling many of the principles by names that secular folks could relate to and embrace was probably a strategy to get these important truths into the hands of enthusiastic entrepreneurs.
I am kind of backing into this work as his “Sixth Sense” topic was the last principle that he presented. I choose to talk a little bit about this topic first by telling you Who (yes Who) he was referring to and relate the associated attributes. So here we go 9 items:
- The Six Sense that he speaks of is theHOLY SPIRIT in that;
- His so-called subconscious mind (there really is no such thing) is the SPIRIT OF MAN.
- The HOLY SPIRIT resides within the spirit of men who receive Him (who are baptized in the spirit) effectively giving them access to infinite intelligence (God i.e., THE HOLY SPIRIT). The Holy Spirit is one part of the triune God.
- He re-enforces the activity of the so-called subconscious mind (spirit of man) who in an involuntary fashion brings into manifestation those things thought of and imagined and delegated to him by the mind by decision.
- His infinite knowledge supplies the imagination with ideas as to what the target (not necessarily monetarily gain) looks like. I like “Think and Grow Spiritually Powerful” as the desired goal.
- It is Him that will warn of impending dangers and will show you opportunities (likely in a dream).
- He will likely show you some signs along the way that you are still on course and that He is still present with you.
- He will give instruction to your “guardian angel” when He wills for your instruction, guidance, and protection.
- You bring your desire, and He brings His power.
If you don’t have the book, get it. I will be presenting the biblical truth about most of the principles that Mr. Hill included in the book. You will love what I have to say and show about imagination and will be amazed at what God says about it.
