(Continued from Part 1, yesterday.) If we as a society have not reached a collective level of self-worth that allows the Reval to do any good, Michael says, heaven will not release the funds. In 2015, he observed that “there are so many that have not reached a place of self-worth that they were not […]

Abundance is a higher-dimensional state of consciousness just as mastery and bliss, love and peace are. Abundance as a state, like love, cannot be discussed. It lives in another, higher dimension and our words don’t capture that […]
