We set up the Divine contact through prayer right before we utter a single spoken or mental word in prayer. Divine contact is a feeling.

In reality you and God are always in contact because God is omnipresent. There is nowhere that God as Infinite Being, Spirit, Knowledge, Love, Power, and Intelligent is not. But we do not experience the fullness of Divine contact in our awareness without turning our attention toward it.

We do this when we pray from deep within. Notice what you feel the instant that you begin to pray, before you utter or think a single word.

The Bible describes this process as “Seek the kingdom of heaven and all things shall be added unto you.” 

The reason why we instinctively turn to prayer when we feel ourselves to be in extreme urgency is because we instinctively know that it is the experience of direct Divine contact that gives us the fullness that provides all things.

The moment we begin speaking to God about what we want the words are likely to get in the way of our direct conscious experience of the energy, the power, the feeling of the presence of God, so the most effective form of prayer is to just dwell in non-verbal awareness of the feeling of contact that takes place the moment we turn to God in prayer, before we become verbal and begin thinking of this or that specific thing. 

Remember that all things are added as our awareness fills with the energy of fulfillment that flows into our felings through Divine contact, including any knowing of what you should do.

This is how you receive all things. It is through Divine contact by praying.
