Product Description
Is it possible that nearly 3,500 years ago, Moses was given the secret for attracting everything you’ve ever desired? The Moses Code was first used to create some of the greatest miracles in the history of the world, but then it was hidden away, and only the highest initiates were allowed to practice it. In this book, James F. Twyman reveals the Code for the first time, showing how it can be used to create miracles in your life . . . and in the world. By practicing the principles presented within these pages, you’ll discover how you can integrate the most powerful manifestation tool in the history of the world into your own life.
At the very heart of the Moses Code is the true function and practice of the Law of Attraction. You may have been told that this Law is all about “getting” the things you want—things that you think will make your life more satisfying. But what if that’s just the first step, and cracking the Moses Code depends more on what you’re willing to “give” rather than “get.” That would mean that you have the power to create miracles in your life right now! It would also mean that you have the ability, even the responsibility, to use that power for more than just attracting money, a better car, or the perfect relationship. You’re here to use the power of Divinity itself to create a world based on the laws of compassion and peace. That’s the task that lies before us.

Obvious Marketing Ploy Written Like A Blog
As I read Twyman's book I recognized the identical concepts that have been taught throughout the ages. Sweedenborg, Emerson, Descartes, Thomas Troward, Abraham-Hicks, Ernest Homes and more notably the many works of Neville Goddard all show that this book is a regurgitation of one idea that is not secret at all. This book is a marketing ploy much like the Secret and in fact Twyman seems to continue to ride that gravy train by aligning himself with the law of attraction and implying: "But I have the secret to unlocking the Secret." Very enticing indeed but this book will probably leave many, just as empty.
When I first saw this book I was very excited with the apparent premise of moving beyond the simplistic and naïve message of The Secret and the law of attraction. Millions of people had been sold on the idea that they can manifest ANYTHING with a single thought. Those Millions are left starving for more substance and Mr. Twyman has rushed to serve these people with a brilliant marketing ploy called The Moses Code. The Moses Code is much like the Secret. A book, a ruse to provide the reader with the "secret handshake" that will awaken the genie-god to deliver shiny toys to your doorstep. This premise will always sell books.
The book borrows the very same ideas from Rhonda Byrne (The Secret) by posing the preposterous notion that something powerful, a secret code, was hidden from the world that would solve all of our problems--until now. In this book Twyman describes how God gave Moses the secret code during the famous burning bush scene in the third chapter of Exodus. He goes on to say that Moses used the secret code to perform many miracles such as freeing his people from captivity, turning his walking stick into a serpent, turning the Nile into blood, killing the first born of every Egyptian, creating plagues, and parting the red sea to destroy the pursuing Egyptian army.
Mr. Twyman attempts to share with the reader the same secret code that Moses supposedly used. A secret code that propels the law of attraction to new heights. A secret code that somehow became lost by Moses and just discovered in 2008.
"What are some of the things you most want to receive? Abundance? Your Soul Mate? The Perfect House? Your Dream Car? Chapter 1.
"And now you will use the name of God just as Moses did to realize your greatest dream. The process you're about to learn will align your power with the power of God, giving you the authority to draw into your life anything you desire." Chapter 2.
The Moses Code presents two sides to the manifesting issue: Ego manifesting and "soul" manifesting which is a noble concept but the book fails to make a reasonable case for the latter. What is the secret code? Say "I AM (a specific desire or state of being). A method in the book is given as a meditative technique. Write down on a piece of paper your desire such as financial abundance or the perfect relationship. Once you are alone and in a relaxed state, take some deep breaths and look at what you have written. Now say "I am [that]" Exhale as you say these words, and then as you inhale continue by saying: "I am." Repeat this pattern as you stare at what you've written. It is important that you feel the emotion of "already having" the thing you are asking for.
If you have faithfully followed the book and DVD "The Secret" or read and apply Abraham-Hicks teachings, you might gain a short-lived boost of inspiration for your manifesting efforts. If you expect to find profound insight and perhaps a missing key to the manifesting puzzle you will be left empty once again. The book is a mish-mash of ideas written in the form of a long blog entry and unfortunately is packaged as a magnificent discovery for the seeker. While Twyman points to an important dichotomy between "us and God," he still exhibits a rather archaic view of scripture based on assumptions, possibly from his Franciscan roots. It actually apears that Twynam at some time read a little Neville Goddard, Murphy or Ernest Holmes and decided to put these ideas in his own words and package it as a newly discovered treasure--all the while surfing the wake left behind by The Secret.
Positive attraction and manifestation
Like The Secret and the Abraham-Hicks works, this book is based on the law of attraction and manifestation. He brings to it a new tool, based on the meeting between Moses and God where God appears as a burning bush, and when asked his name says, "I am that I am."
He explains that the actual Hebrew words God used when he spoke to Moses were "EHYEH ASHER EHYEH." According to the Jewish faith, this name is not to be spoken aloud, because it is considered a sin to take the Lord's name in vain. This accounts for the fact that while it is an extremely powerful tool, it was not used except in the temple.
The literal translation is actually "I will be who I will be," but this is where he believes intent comes into play. If you intend to use the statement "I am that I am" to attract and manifest God's will, then that is what will be done.
He gives specific exercises to incorporate this new tool on several levels, as well as examples of positive attraction and manifestation.
He takes the law of attraction to a more spiritual level, beyond manifesting a new house and a good income, to giving, being one with God and other individuals. "The ego seeks to get, while the soul seeks to give." He thinks it's fine to manifest things that meet our physical needs, but it is important to continue to manifest things like, peace, joy, love, grace and patience.
His ten keys to manifesting everything you desire are:
1. Be clear- because "Be careful what you ask for, because you might just get it."
2. Be open - "Your mind is like a parachute, it works best when it's open"
3. Be willing
4. Be happy
5. Be focused
6. Be expectant
7. Be energetic
8. Be positive
9. Be true
10. Be grateful - "the Universe bows to a heart filled with Divine appreciation."
This is a positive book that gives us a Biblically based tool to support the law of attraction and manifestation.
A BIG let down from Hay House; There are MANY more powerful manifesting books and tools, and nothing in this book is original
I was incredibly excited when I purchased this book, as I am a big fan of Hay House and most of its authors. I have had incredible results using various tools and ways of manifesting, including those mentioned in The Secret, Abraham-Hicks, etc. I am a life coach, so this stuff is right up the alley.
Though the book makes a few important points that I think should have been put in The Secret ( such as how we should be less ego based and do things more for the good of others), Eckhart Tolle and J Krishnamurti provide more insight than in The Moses Code.
As one other reviewer stated, using I AM THAT I AM, or affirmations beginning with I AM have been used OVER AND OVER again. YES, they are powerful, and Troward, Neville, Elizabeth Claire Prophet, The Secret audio book, the potent master Key System. There is the I AM foundation, The Optimists's Creed...man, there are whole churchs and movements based on using I AM. And now Twyman comes along and markets this as some newly found concept.
But that is just the beginning: he makes very ignorant statements that can actually affect a person's ability to manifest ( ie use the law of atttraction, The Secret, etc). In the back of the book, Twyman has a section on what hurts a person's ability to manifest. He mentions that affirmations will not work if a person has underlying beliefs about oneself that are negative. THAT IS THE WHOLE POINT OF DOING AFFIRMATIONS OVER AND OVER AGAIN: THEY RETRAIN OUR MINDS AND THUS OUR BELIEF SYSTEM. THAT IS WHAT THEY ARE FOR. Psychology calls it 'cognative behavioral therapy', aka changing one's behavior. No, YOU DON'T BELIEVE YOU ARE AMAZING, A MILLIONAIRE, ETC UNTIL YOU HAVE CHANGED YOUR BELIEFS BY DOING AFFIRMATIONS. I mean, even Western psychology knows this. Then, he makes an even bigger blunder: on page 178, he says a common problem is that people are not realistic. What does being realistic mean? It means one believes that one can only attain what he sees as being possible, judging by his situation, surroundings, etc. He goes on to give a 40 year old over weight man who wants to join the NBA as having an unrealistic goal. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? WAS MARTIN LUTHER KING BUYING INTO WHAT HE WAS TOLD WAS POSSIBLE? HOW ABOUT EINSTEIN OR MOTHER THERESA? No, they believed in the impossible. Had he said ' It is important that one believes one's goal is possible' that is a different matter, as the above mentioned mavericks believed in themselves and the impossible. But he didn't say that, so people may end up going ' you know, I can't create world wide peace, buy that dream home, etc'. I can't believe Hay House published this.
There are MANY more worthwhile books for you to buy or check out from your local library. Some are as follows: The Master key System, The Power of Intention, any little books by Elizabeth Claire Prophet, Neville Goddard, Thomas Troward, The Path of Roses, all Science of Mind books, Abraham Hicks, Tolle ( esp The Power of Now), The Secret audio book, J Krishnamurti's books and teachings, Neal Donald Walsh...and so many others.
Yes, manifesting works. Yes, I AM is powerful. But this book is not. Look into other Hay House publications.
