In this post, I am going to answer manifestation law of attraction and what that means for you as a Christian. Which you can also check out my video below on if Christians should practice the law of attraction.
And explain to you exactly what the Bible says about manifesting. Now before I get into it let me explain to you what manifesting is anyway.
Manifestation law of attraction is often used in the law of attraction (a new age philosophy) and it pretty much means that if you practice the laws of attraction then the things that you are focusing on will manifest in real life.
For example, the manifestation laws of attraction assert that you can manifest money, you can manifest a job, a relationship, good health, or just about anything that you put your mind to. If you think about it enough, are positive enough, affirm it enough, and envision enough then you can manifest just about anything you want.
But let me tell you a secret. The laws of attraction and Christianity go hand and hand. Yeah, they may call it laws of attraction but just because you slap a different name on it does not make it any less Christian.
The only difference, in my opinion, is that the laws of attraction have replaced the word universe with the word God. And of course, according to the manifestation law of attraction, they claim you can have anything you want BUT I think you can have anything you want as long as it is in the will of God. As the Bible clearly states:
For this reason I am telling you, whatever things you ask for in prayer [in accordance with God’s will], believe [with confident trust] that you have received them, and they will be given to you. Mark 11:24
But as a Christian, you should know that the universe is God. Since you understand manifestation and you now understand that manifestation can get you the life that you want, let me tell you how to do it God’s way. Also, check out my blog on the power of positive thinking as a Christian.

#1 Manifestation Law of Attraction ~ Let’s start with what is manifestation law of attraction according to the Bible?
When it comes to Christianity and manifestation knowing what manifestation is according to the Bible really comes down to this verse:
For as he thinks in his heart, so is he Proverbs 23:7
All the laws of attraction is, is the ability to attract into our lives whatever we are focusing on. (source) Which when you really think about it is the same thing that the above Bible verse is saying. Whatever a man is, whatever he thinks he is, or whatever he thinks he deserves is exactly what he will become. Now that you understand the BASIC premise of what manifestation is according to the Bible.
As I already spoke about God does need to be in the center of this you cannot just snap your fingers and watch a million dollars fall out of the sky if you think about it hard enough. Which is what I talk more about in my video below. The key to manifestation law of attraction God’s way is to do it God’s way. Check out my video on why God won’t give me what I want so you can understand that your manifestation law of attraction ability God’s way has limits and it is not just about getting everything you want.
#2 Manifestation Law of Attraction ~ What the Bible Says About Manifesting
If you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ˜Move from here to there, and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you. Matthew 17:20
The idea of manifestation law of attraction is that you can attract things to you. But all this really comes down to is that you are having faith that what you want to come true will come true by acting, believing, and going about things in a way that what you have asked for is going to come to the pass. That is also known as faith. And as you can tell from the above Bible verse that if you have faith then there is nothing that is impossible to you and you can literally tell a mountain to move.
Therefore, if you have to try to manifest something the Christian way, then just have faith that it will come to pass, behave like it will come to pass, and believe with your whole heart it will come to pass.
Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1
When you choose to manifest something you are literally thinking about it, saying it, believing, and attracting it into your life. Even though you don’t see it yet. And it is that same faith that you have on a continuous basis that will manifest whatever you are having faith in.
#3 What the Bible Says About Manifesting ~ Pray Without Ceasing
Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
When it comes to the law of attraction and Christianity they are very similar in the way that they require a long-term commitment to see the manifestation of what you. They both also require being thankful and appreciative for what you do have. With the laws of attraction, you cannot practice the laws of attraction for just one day and think that you will manifest what you want.
For the laws of attraction, you cannot be all negative and unappreciative. And it is the same way for manifesting the Christian way. Thank God for what you have and if there is any small manifestation of what you have asked for be grateful and appreciative of that.
Manifestation laws of attraction are a way of life and so is being a Christian. Pray without ceasing. When it comes to Christianity and manifestation you cannot just pray about it one time and then when you don’t see the answer to your prayer you give up. No, you pray, keep believing, keep praying, and not giving up until you see what you have prayed for manifest in your reality. Also, check out my video below for Bible techniques on how to call things into existence.
#4 Manifestation Law of Attraction ~ Replace God With The Universe
God who gives life to the dead and calls into being things that were not. Romans 4:17
Christianity and laws of attraction can be very different in the fact that laws of attraction attribute their manifestation to the universe but as a Christian, you need to attribute your manifestation to God. If you look at the Bible verse above, then you can clearly see that God is one that brings about things into your world, things that you have hoped for, and things that are not unseen.
I have seen many Christians who believe in God and also attribute things to the universe. To make it short, the universe is God. God is the one that is going to make your manifestation come to the past and God is the one that you should be thanking and praying to every day in order to get your manifestation.
As you can see manifestation is Christian and the above Bible verses clearly explain why that is. BUT you may still not know how to practice manifestation the Christian way and so I am here to give you some ideas.
#5 Manifestation Law of Attraction ~ Way Keep A Spiritual Journal
It is no secret that when you write things down they are more likely to come true. It can be your manifestations or even your goals. So you can write down your prayers, your wishes to God, write down gratitudes, or write down what you are believing God for.
The good things about spiritual journals are that you can come back and read them time and time again. This is a great way to be reminded of what you are believing God for and it is wonderful to come back time and time again to read it and be grateful for each manifestation that you see come true.
I am a master of writing letters to God and oftentimes your manifestations it takes some time to see God move on your behalf. Sometimes it takes YEARS. I love when I am able to come back to my journals time and time again and read where I was then versus where I am now.
Often times, when things are in writing it, is a wonderful reminder of what you are believing God for and a good reminder when you see your manifestations come to pass even if it is YEARS from now. Because oftentimes when they are not in writing we tend to forget. The more you see how much God has done for you the more you are reminded of how much more He can manifest for you. That is why keeping a spiritual journal can be so important. You can click here to get see some of my spiritual journal recommendations and also click here to read my blog on journaling.
#6 Manifestation Law of Attraction ~ Practice Affirmations
Affirmations are huge when it comes to laws of attraction and manifestations. Not only will affirmations help with the manifestations but they will also help increase your faith and keep you in a positive mood that will in turn help with your manifestations as well. It is important to remain positive and remind yourself of what God has done for you. This is why I liked to replace affirmations with Bible verses as use them as affirmations. Here are a few of my favorites below.
- Beloved, I pray that in every way you may prosper and enjoy good health, as your soul also prospers. 3 John 1:2
- Walk in obedience to him, and keep his decrees and commands, his laws and regulations, as written in the Law of Moses. Do this so that you may prosper in all you do and wherever you go. 1 Kings 2:3
- Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Luke 6:38
- Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Psalm 37:4
- I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. Psalm 139:14

#7 Manifestation Law of Attraction ~ Christianity and manifestation: Vision Board
I personally do not think that there is anything wrong with a vision board nor do I think that it is anti-Christian. Remember as long as you are keeping God in the center of it and you recognize that God is the one that is going to bring your manifestation to reality then there should not be an issue.
You can click here to see how to make a vision board and the benefits of it. But in short, a vision board serves as your image of the future in a tangible example, idea or representation of where you are going. By putting a vision board somewhere you can see it every day, you will prompt yourself to visualize your ideal life on a regular basis. Thus assisting with whatever you are trying to manifest.
Even though the laws of attraction is considered to be New Age, I hope that you understand that Christianity and manifestation go hand and hand. You can manifest the things that you want out of life as long as you are doing it God’s way.
If you know a fellow Christian that wants to know about Christianity and manifestation then go ahead and share this post with them.

Thank you for posting this! I practice the Law of Attraction and I am also a Christian. It can get confusing at times. I mean God is Source, Source is Universe, Source is Us…I believe it’s all talking about God and that we have God In us. I definitely ask God to steer me through when I have questions or concerns. There are LOA speakers and teachers I like for sure, but God has the final say! : ) Wayne Dyer is an incredible God loving manifester. He’s an incredible teacher. The Yogic teachings are also very similar to the commandments God wants us to follow. God’s everywhere. It’s always God! : ) Girl, you are amazing!!!! There’s not much out there on practicing LOA and being a Christian. Thank you!!!!
It’s so tough being Christian nowadays. I am always so conflicted, and I feel like such a bad Christian because I see God in a different perceptive as ordinary Christians. But God will always be the center of my life and even if I communicate differently he knows my heart. It’s so hard cause people judge me so bad!
People judging in the Christian community is the worse. But its okay, I see and experience God in my own way. I think that is what he wants. Do not pay attention to other people if you know where you and God stand.
Hi, this has clarified some things for me but i still wonder when people talk about shadow work, talking to spirit guides, crystals, etc.. they refer to that as witchcraft and themselves “witches.” I was always taught witchcraft is devil worshiping but I am kind of confused on what’s right and wrong
For me as a Christian, I just talk to the Holy Spirit and not spirit guides. And I do not do any spells or anything like that. But I do believe in keeping a positive mindset, not talking down to your blessings, and having faith. And that when you keep this attitude you bring in the blessings God has for you.
Love this! I’d love to collab on a YouTube video. My audience would love to hear this content!
Thanks so much what is your channel?
I am not confused any longer. I pray for what I need and at the end of my prayer I say “”if it is your will”. Amen.
Yes that is a good idea.
Deception.
It’s really confusing to me so
Thank you for this! I been doing the exact same since the beginning of 2020. I take every LOA study or quote I find and I replace The Universe with God. I just love your breakdown. I didn’t know anyone else did this! I seen some videos and articles where Christians truly dismiss or condemn people who use the LOA but I don’t feel it’s bad. Certain things can be used for Gods glory because there are some Christian similarities. It’s about our mindset and faith! I don’t do Chakras, Crystals, or none of that but I do apply speaking life, visualizing and utilizing my faith. Therefore I been manifesting somethings that I believe God is bringing into my life soon. I have cut out distractions and started being obedient. I have broken habits and learned to really love me. So manifesting can be used in a Christian way. I am so glad I found this.
Exactly, I agree with everything you said and could not have said it better myself.
Read David Yongi Cho, which gives you specific Christian principles on how to apply the Law of Attraction. He has written two great books on the subject matter. There are specific actions that need to be taken in order to get your visions/prayers answered. It’s just the same way all the New age practitioners use the law of attraction.
Of Course, God placed a system in place in order to have man achieve all their dreams by visualizing and then acting upon those beliefs. The problem is we don’t understand it too well because it’s been hidden from us for some reason. But how do you think television, cellphones, radios and all other electronic devices that receive and/or broadcast signals works? They work simply by the law of vibration…there are invisible waves and particles constantly in the air which man has learned to harness in order to send radio waves, television pictures internet WIFI…If man can harness this invisible power, don’t you think there is a power available to man that is invisible that helps create out of thin air. How do you think these men that don’t know God actually produce such results? Men like Getty, Edison, Ford and the whole Gamut of industry leaders that have been icons of productivity and advancement. The men of the last century have become millionaires and billionaires through dreams that persisted in their minds??
Here are Bible verses that explain this stuff:
Proverbs 23:7: As a Man Thinks in his heart, so He is
Genesis 11:6-7: If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them. Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other.
What do you think Jacob was doing in Genesis 30:37 if not using this law of attraction:
Gensis30 37 Jacob, however, took fresh-cut branches from poplar, almond, and plane trees and made white stripes on them by peeling the bark and exposing the white inner wood of the branches. 38 Then he placed the peeled branches in all the watering troughs so that they would be directly in front of the flocks when they came to drink. When the flocks were in heat and came to drink, 39 they mated in front of the branches. And they bore young that were streaked or speckled or spotted. 40 Jacob set apart the young of the flock by themselves but made the rest face the streaked and dark-colored animals that belonged to Laban. Thus he made separate flocks for himself and did not put them with Laban’s animals. 41 Whenever the stronger females were in heat, Jacob would place the branches in the troughs in front of the animals so they would mate near the branches, 42 but if the animals were weak, he would not place them there. So the weak animals went to Laban and the strong ones to Jacob. 43 In this way the man grew exceedingly prosperous and came to own large flocks, and female and male servants, and camels and donkeys.
Jacob was just visualizing the end result with this stripped bark example the bible so clearly gives us.
God is no respecter of person, so if Jacob could do this then obviously it’s available for anybody to do the same.
Proverbs 29:18
18 Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.
You really don’t think that applies to visualization?? Look at all those countries where Tyranny exists and there is no vision, the people truly do perish. But where vision is allowed to exist the people flourish.
You have to understand that this law (call it law of attraction or what not) God had to make something like this available for everyone even those without knowledge of Christ and scriptural understanding.
I can go on and on with biblical references where all this is demonstrated. All these Christian articles discussing this topic are so short-sighted. They try to place God in a box and not allow Him to be the multi dimensional God that He is. His Word is multi-faceted, multi-dimensional as well.
Yes we are to seek the Kingdom first and all these things will be added to you, but in reality how many people are actually seeking the Kingdom????
God would still have to make provisions for these people. It’s as natural as the law of Gravity if a just or unjust person falls from a tall building they will meet the same demise (unless there is a miracle of course but I digress). Same with everything else, the law of electricity, radio waves, television waves, radiation…things that can’t be seen. Yet all men take advantage of all these phenomena. Or do you say because it’s not mentioned in the bible you will stop using your Television or your cell phone or stop writing your blog on the internet….come on man…Stop saying everything is of the occult!!!!!
John 1:3: “Through him, all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.” It’s also echoed in Colossians 1:16 “For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him.”
The Lord even creates evil:
Isaiah 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.
You can look up that verse in several different translations and you will see it means the same thing.
The Occult has it’s place, yes I know there is true evil in the world, but not all of it is of the Occult.
So well said. Ty
Dr. Reed, thank YOU so much for this incredible content! I have recently been having these big dreams/goals put on my heart (all of which I strongly believe are coming from God)and I truly want to see them become a reality. I’ve been researching manifestation to hopefully help me achieve my goals but was worried I would be taking God out of the equation. This article has been a confirmation that I can continue to ask God for what I want, do the work, and wait for his timing. Thank you again so much. I look forward to listening to your podcast and watching your YouTube channel!
I am so glad you enjoyed it.
Hello! I ordered the manifestation guide back in February and never received – the charge went through but no book was shipped. What are standard ship times or do I need to dispute with cc company? Please contact me for an update or next steps. Thanks in advance!
The book is actually an ebook as it states in the description. You should have received it via email when you ordered it.
Hello this has been an amazing article and honestly has helped because I would never want to do anything wrong on my Christian walk or lead others the wrong way. I wanted to ask is it bad to see repeating numbers? Is that how God communicates? I was so upset when I heard it’s of the devil bc I didn’t know that so I wanted to know is this true because so many articles say so many different things. I feel like if I see one I’ll freak out now bc I don’t know if it’s God now or not. Please help with your input. Thank you so much and be blessed.
I personally don’t look for numbers. Normally if God wants to tell you something he is pretty loud about it and will tell you directly.
