We must change our
belief system so that we always consider growth or we are dying a
slow miserable death. Cast all your cares upon the Lord for he cares
for you! Perfect (mature) love casts out all fear. What must
happen to feel blessed and experience abundance – then remember to
count the blessing.
What causes feelings of
failure? Find where you lack faith in God and you’ll see where you
lack knowledge of His divine character.
Emotion is energy in
motion. An emotion is the barometer of our mental state of mind in
regards to fight or flight and pain or pleasure and affects our
character and destiny.
We experience life
through a grid of emotional screens that color our perception - What
are the injunctions in life that need to be changed?
We practice
certain rites from the way we learn to view life’s experience.
We need to
learn to control our emotions by changing our rights and our rites.
If we change our thinking habits of looking through negative or
positive emotions we rejuvenate or recreate our character, then
behavior, and eventual destiny.
In order to
change we must identify what we really want in life to be happy and
reinforce the positive emotion to create an anchor that our
character will acclimate too.
The anchor of my soul -
associations are created through intense emotional states. The
associations are imprinted through those experiences going on around
us.
We relate
every emotion through what we have experienced - addictions are
created though the pleasure or pain we associate with the
experience.
In order to
change we must break the pleasure/pain association with the anchor.
We need to think and believe to change the reality around the
anchors we associate with the pleasure or painful emotions. We
control and understand the process so we can change our feelings in
a given situation. We change the physiology we change the state of
our emotions.
Emotional
triggers - anything we do habitually will change our states of
consciousness. The feeling will become autonomous when we repeat
the trigger (action) and the emotional state returns, positive or
negative.
To create a
positive trigger get yourself into a highly emotional state, then do
something unique over and over to imprint the experience. The new
experience will set up a trigger that will then change your state.
The next step is to just relax, change your focus for the moment,
use the trigger, and feel your body snapping back into the intense
emotional state. Alternating negative and positive anchors will
collapse negative associations by simultaneously firing them off.
Positive
anchors are effective when we make sure we are in the desired state
and consistently link a trigger to that state - no double-mindedness
Change comes through mentally visualization: best case
versus worst case scenario. Simply picture the worst with a tiny
visual of the best in the corner and then compare the two. In your
vision change the tiny positive visual to an overcoming positive
image. The basis of your beliefs will change with enthusiastic
repetition that is based on the truth.
A TECHNIQUE FOR INSTILLING CHANGE
In
order to learn to associate positive emotions with abundant living
we must make obedience to God our top priority. In order to make
abundant living a priority and commit to having it, we must
surrender to God. We also need to devote time to develop our
relationships with God, family and friends. We need to take an
action now while setting our heart’s desire to achieve it. The only
way to fail is to not follow through on this strategy. Love is a
verb; an action that leads to godly habits for effectively attaining
abundant life in Christ.
Step 1. To be free of a false belief or destructive behavior get
leverage, the reason to ‘why’ we do the things we do or believe,
these will give us the motivation, and then we can interrupt the old
pattern of belief that led to irrational behavior.
Step 2. Decide you are going to be free of this false belief, fear,
etc. Avoid complacency by finding out why we can be abundant.
Complacency is settling for less than our personal best.
Complacency will stall any possible growth; be willing to change.
Our tendencies are set in motion and momentum is gained when we
continue to work toward the desires. We can loose the rewards by
playing it safe and staying in our comfort zone.
Step 3. Decide you’re not going to allow others to control your
value. Do not rely upon others to fulfill your responsibilities.
Faith is knowing and doing the will of God.
Step 4. Get enough leverage to follow through; write out the cost
of not overcoming this fear or behavior; then the benefits of being
free from it. List what you need to know and get the answers you
need now.
Step 5. Through a promise(s) of God get into a positive state and
create a positive anchor.
Step 6. Create a new set of beliefs based on God’s acceptance. We
are His children.
Step 7. Use the forgiveness technique to interrupt old thought
patterns, repent of the root of bitterness.
Step 8. Picture a big failure as if it were on a movie screen. How
did we miss the bulls eye.
Step 9. With a smile on your face run the memory at high speed in
reverse.
Step 10. Recreate the image and think of God’s promises of
forgiveness as a positive anchor while imagining being accepted
Step 11. Write out the benefits you received after reconciling past
failures or rejections - now with the false beliefs reconciled
remember God’s Word that He will work all things out for the good of
those who are called according to His will and purposes.
Step 12. Now run it twice as fast forward and stop.
Step 13. Run it forward and backward as fast as you can. Each time
expose the false beliefs about your behavior knowing God will help
us change.
Step 14. Now think about the painful memory. You should be smiling!
Step 15. And fully imagine having the success you desire over and
over again based on a promise until it’s absolutely real for you and
becomes a sense of certainty that is based on the promises of God.
Allow the victories of past trials and tribulation to guide your
path.
Step 16. Now rehearse. This is the way to achieve success -
meditate and feel the pleasure of success in the blessings from
knowing God’s presence in your life. Now experience your emotions
as God’s truth transforms us and the emotion begins to line up with
our beliefs, our faith towards God, which is your gift from Him.
Amen.

Abundance comes from

others would be willing to invest in and reach a multitude of people
intelligently to build an abundance by giving the treasure away.
Above all be a cheerful
giver!
