1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:08.640
And good morning, good morning, or good afternoon, good evening, depending where you are.

2
00:00:08.640 --> 00:00:10.960
Welcome, welcome.

3
00:00:10.960 --> 00:00:21.040
This is, we are in the 12-week immersion from pressure to partnership.

4
00:00:21.040 --> 00:00:24.000
And each one of those words is so important.

5
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:27.560
The idea with this is immersion.

6
00:00:27.560 --> 00:00:33.520
We move from laying the biblical foundation, which we do Wednesdays, every Wednesday morning

7
00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:38.040
at eight in the morning with the Prosper Power Hour.

8
00:00:38.040 --> 00:00:41.000
That's where we lay the biblical foundation.

9
00:00:41.000 --> 00:00:48.440
And then during from pressure to partnership, this is where we just really let this get

10
00:00:48.440 --> 00:00:49.440
in us.

11
00:00:49.440 --> 00:00:54.880
We embody it, we practice it, we go deeper with it.

12
00:00:54.880 --> 00:00:59.600
And then, of course, at nine o'clock, we do office hours where we work technical on

13
00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:00.600
our business.

14
00:01:00.600 --> 00:01:01.600
So welcome, welcome.

15
00:01:01.600 --> 00:01:05.519
I'm so glad that you are here.

16
00:01:05.519 --> 00:01:10.360
And I am so excited about today.

17
00:01:10.360 --> 00:01:21.160
We are working through the Prosper System, the, grab my book here, the P-R-O-S-P-E-R,

18
00:01:21.160 --> 00:01:23.600
which is the framework.

19
00:01:23.600 --> 00:01:28.800
And so last week we did P, which is partner with God.

20
00:01:28.800 --> 00:01:33.680
Everything begins with the relationship, right?

21
00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:38.080
Walking, abiding, trusting, connecting.

22
00:01:38.080 --> 00:01:46.880
And then out of that connection, we begin, we're going to see today, we begin to see,

23
00:01:46.880 --> 00:01:54.720
we begin to transform by the renewing of our mind.

24
00:01:54.720 --> 00:01:59.880
And that's the R, R for renewing of the mind.

25
00:01:59.880 --> 00:02:01.480
And so that's where we are today.

26
00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:03.800
I'm super excited.

27
00:02:03.800 --> 00:02:10.680
And so Lord, Holy Spirit, we just invite you to flood this atmosphere.

28
00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:14.560
Just speak through my mouth, think through my mind.

29
00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:19.720
Let your spirit just infuse our minds, our hearts.

30
00:02:19.720 --> 00:02:28.040
Let your truth rise up, Lord, that we may be transformed into your image.

31
00:02:28.040 --> 00:02:30.720
We just welcome you here, Holy Spirit.

32
00:02:30.720 --> 00:02:35.600
Let the words of our mouth, the meditations of our heart be pleasing in your sight.

33
00:02:35.600 --> 00:02:40.840
In Jesus name, amen, amen.

34
00:02:40.840 --> 00:02:41.840
And welcome, Amanda.

35
00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:44.240
I saw that you just joined us.

36
00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:45.240
Thank you.

37
00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:46.240
I'm sorry.

38
00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:47.240
I was talking to my dad.

39
00:02:47.240 --> 00:02:48.240
That's okay.

40
00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:49.440
How's he doing?

41
00:02:49.440 --> 00:02:50.440
He's doing better.

42
00:02:50.440 --> 00:02:51.440
Praise the Lord real quick.

43
00:02:51.440 --> 00:02:53.960
He had a breakthrough last night in the middle of the night.

44
00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:58.480
So his pain relieved and he was able to breathe a little bit better.

45
00:02:58.480 --> 00:02:59.480
So we're progressing.

46
00:02:59.480 --> 00:03:00.480
Answered prayers.

47
00:03:00.480 --> 00:03:01.480
Yes.

48
00:03:01.480 --> 00:03:02.480
Yes.

49
00:03:02.480 --> 00:03:03.480
Yes.

50
00:03:03.480 --> 00:03:04.480
Beautiful.

51
00:03:04.480 --> 00:03:09.680
So pressure begins to lose its power.

52
00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:17.440
What we're talking about is beginning to release the grip of this contracted state

53
00:03:17.440 --> 00:03:19.560
that we so often get in.

54
00:03:19.560 --> 00:03:26.840
We're talking about how we're trying to build this expansive life, but often from a contracted

55
00:03:26.840 --> 00:03:34.080
state, from this pressure cooker that so many of us live in, right?

56
00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:42.600
And so today we're going to get to the thoughts underneath that.

57
00:03:42.600 --> 00:03:52.640
And so here is an opening question because what we're beginning to do, it's about awareness.

58
00:03:52.640 --> 00:03:57.440
It's about beginning to notice the thoughts, the beliefs, the inner agreements that create

59
00:03:57.440 --> 00:03:58.440
that pressure.

60
00:03:58.440 --> 00:04:03.200
Like under the pressure is thoughts.

61
00:04:03.320 --> 00:04:15.640
So I'll just open with the question, what if the pressure that you are feeling is not

62
00:04:15.640 --> 00:04:21.480
just coming from what's happening in the external world?

63
00:04:21.480 --> 00:04:29.600
What if the pressure that you're feeling is coming from what you're believing inside of

64
00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:30.600
you?

65
00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:34.560
Let me say that again.

66
00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:40.840
What if the pressure that you're feeling is not only coming from what's happening outside

67
00:04:40.840 --> 00:04:46.800
of you, but what is happening inside of you?

68
00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:53.400
So yesterday we did several scriptures and if any of you missed that, I'm going to just

69
00:04:53.400 --> 00:04:55.600
review real quick and then you can go back.

70
00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:59.000
We went in depth with a lot of the scriptures.

71
00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:00.000
Okay.

72
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:01.000
We went in depth with a lot of the scriptures.

73
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:07.280
We started with Romans 12, 2, which says,

74
00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:01.000


75
00:05:07.280 --> 00:05:16.640
do not be conformed to the world, but be transformed.

76
00:05:16.640 --> 00:05:18.040
So we've got a contrast.

77
00:05:18.040 --> 00:05:19.360
You can be conformed.

78
00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:20.720
The world shapes you.

79
00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:23.320
You take on the mold of the world.

80
00:05:23.320 --> 00:05:28.280
You can be conformed, or you can be transformed.

81
00:05:28.320 --> 00:05:33.080
And the transformed, it says, be transformed

82
00:05:33.080 --> 00:05:38.960
by the renewing of your mind.

83
00:05:38.960 --> 00:05:42.080
Re, do again, new, make new.

84
00:05:42.080 --> 00:05:45.920
We're new creations in Christ, right?

85
00:05:45.920 --> 00:05:49.840
And what's so amazing that this being written thousands

86
00:05:49.840 --> 00:05:54.400
of years ago, but now that we understand

87
00:05:54.400 --> 00:05:57.120
neurology and psychoneuroimmunology

88
00:05:57.120 --> 00:05:58.920
and all of that with the PET scans,

89
00:05:58.920 --> 00:06:00.920
that's literally what happens.

90
00:06:00.920 --> 00:06:02.760
Your brain rewires.

91
00:06:02.760 --> 00:06:04.880
It becomes new.

92
00:06:04.880 --> 00:06:07.560
And in the process, you're transformed.

93
00:06:07.560 --> 00:06:17.120
So be transformed by the renewing of your mind, right?

94
00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:20.920
And so transformation comes.

95
00:06:20.920 --> 00:06:22.400
It lets you know two things.

96
00:06:22.400 --> 00:06:25.920
Number one, transformation is possible.

97
00:06:25.920 --> 00:06:30.520
Number two, transformation comes through renewal,

98
00:06:30.520 --> 00:06:37.520
not striving, not effort, not information, not strategy.

99
00:06:37.520 --> 00:06:42.280
And then what happens, what I want you to understand

100
00:06:42.280 --> 00:06:50.200
is that the renewed mind changes the state that we experience,

101
00:06:50.200 --> 00:06:53.240
the state that we're living from.

102
00:06:53.240 --> 00:06:55.600
And so we're going to go through the process.

103
00:06:55.760 --> 00:06:59.920
I talked yesterday about the mind-heart-mouth connection

104
00:06:59.920 --> 00:07:01.200
all the way through scripture.

105
00:07:01.200 --> 00:07:04.920
You think a thought, and then when you feel it,

106
00:07:04.920 --> 00:07:08.840
and the neuropeptides, the molecules of emotion

107
00:07:08.840 --> 00:07:13.520
that Candice Perk discovered, begins to change you

108
00:07:13.520 --> 00:07:15.640
within and without.

109
00:07:15.640 --> 00:07:18.880
Within the neuropeptides, it affects our health.

110
00:07:18.880 --> 00:07:20.560
It goes to different organs.

111
00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:25.240
It's shaping what's going on in our inner world, right?

112
00:07:25.240 --> 00:07:32.680
And we know we are electromagnetic beings, right?

113
00:07:32.680 --> 00:07:38.680
You know that just even from the medical equipment use, right?

114
00:07:38.680 --> 00:07:41.120
We're magnetic, MRI.

115
00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:41.920
Think about it.

116
00:07:41.920 --> 00:07:42.880
We're electrical.

117
00:07:42.880 --> 00:07:44.000
Your heart stops.

118
00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:45.480
We use electricity.

119
00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:48.000
We're electromagnetic beings.

120
00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:50.880
And this is radiating out.

121
00:07:50.880 --> 00:07:53.200
We know at least 8 to 12 feet.

122
00:07:53.200 --> 00:07:56.760
So this is affecting what's going on in our body,

123
00:07:56.760 --> 00:07:58.720
in our heart, and how we're feeling.

124
00:07:58.720 --> 00:08:05.040
And it's affecting our state and the actions that we take.

125
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:09.480
And so the mind-heart-mouth, then we speak it, right?

126
00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:12.400
And so if you believe in your heart

127
00:08:12.400 --> 00:08:15.120
and confess with your mouth, you'll be saved, right?

128
00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:18.040
You see this pattern of mind-heart.

129
00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:24.320
And so 2 Corinthians 10, 5 talks about we

130
00:08:24.320 --> 00:08:29.080
are taking every thought and purpose captive

131
00:08:29.080 --> 00:08:31.920
to the obedience of Christ.

132
00:08:31.920 --> 00:08:34.440
So what this begins to tell you, if we're

133
00:08:34.440 --> 00:08:38.960
taking every thought captive, it tells you

134
00:08:38.960 --> 00:08:41.280
that God wants us to be conscious.

135
00:08:41.280 --> 00:08:44.400
He wants us to think about our thinking.

136
00:08:44.400 --> 00:08:46.520
You can't take a thought captive and see

137
00:08:46.520 --> 00:08:50.640
if it lines up with truth, see if it lines up with the word,

138
00:08:50.640 --> 00:08:55.440
see if it lines up with what God says about who you are

139
00:08:55.440 --> 00:08:58.160
and who he is and what life is.

140
00:08:58.160 --> 00:09:02.520
We can't take a thought captive if we don't have awareness.

141
00:09:02.520 --> 00:09:06.600
When we're not aware, we believe our thinking.

142
00:09:06.600 --> 00:09:10.480
We just buy into our story, and we act it out,

143
00:09:10.480 --> 00:09:12.720
and we live it out, right?

144
00:09:12.720 --> 00:09:15.560
So the beautiful thing about the way

145
00:09:15.560 --> 00:09:20.200
God made us, right, in counseling or psychology,

146
00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:21.960
metacognition.

147
00:09:21.960 --> 00:09:25.800
I can be aware of my own thinking,

148
00:09:25.800 --> 00:09:29.640
which is really an amazing thought if you think about it.

149
00:09:29.640 --> 00:09:33.840
I can be aware of my own thinking.

150
00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:38.560
And so yesterday, we said the first step to transformation

151
00:09:38.560 --> 00:09:39.240
is awareness.

152
00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:42.520
You can't change if you're not even aware of it.

153
00:09:42.560 --> 00:09:46.120
So awareness is the first step to transformation.

154
00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:50.640
And so yesterday, we talked about, open my eyes, Lord.

155
00:09:50.640 --> 00:09:52.640
Help me to see.

156
00:09:52.640 --> 00:09:55.120
Help me to see myself as you see.

157
00:09:55.120 --> 00:09:56.400
Help me to see you.

158
00:09:56.400 --> 00:10:00.040
Help me to see the lies I've been believing.

159
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:02.600
Help me to see, right?

160
00:10:02.600 --> 00:10:04.720
Help me to see the truth.

161
00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:07.240
And so 2 Corinthians 10, 5,

162
00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:09.200
we're taking every thought captive

163
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:11.200
to the obedience of Christ.

164
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:14.000
This means we do not have to believe

165
00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:16.900
every thought that enters our mind.

166
00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:23.880
You see, a thought can feel so real and so true.

167
00:10:23.880 --> 00:10:28.500
Our story can feel, our narrative can feel so accurate

168
00:10:28.500 --> 00:10:31.100
and yet be completely out of alignment

169
00:10:31.100 --> 00:10:32.300
with the word of God,

170
00:10:32.300 --> 00:10:35.180
completely out of alignment about what God says.

171
00:10:35.180 --> 00:10:38.540
And we do this all the time.

172
00:10:38.540 --> 00:10:40.020
And today we're gonna talk

173
00:10:40.020 --> 00:10:42.360
how to break agreement with that.

174
00:10:42.360 --> 00:10:43.940
So how to have awareness

175
00:10:43.940 --> 00:10:47.540
and how to have transformation, right?

176
00:10:47.540 --> 00:10:50.480
And so you could really believe something,

177
00:10:52.060 --> 00:10:53.720
but that doesn't make it true.

178
00:10:54.620 --> 00:10:57.060
That's so important to understand.

179
00:10:57.100 --> 00:11:00.180
A thought can feel true, but still not be.

180
00:11:00.180 --> 00:11:03.220
And so we talked yesterday about open our eyes.

181
00:11:03.220 --> 00:11:05.980
We talked about Genesis 21, 19,

182
00:11:05.980 --> 00:11:10.720
when God opened Hagar's eyes and she saw the well.

183
00:11:10.720 --> 00:11:12.380
The well was there all the time.

184
00:11:12.380 --> 00:11:14.460
God didn't show up and dig a well right there.

185
00:11:14.460 --> 00:11:17.740
The well was there, but she couldn't see it.

186
00:11:17.740 --> 00:11:19.660
And that's so true for us.

187
00:11:19.660 --> 00:11:21.840
The answers are all around us.

188
00:11:21.840 --> 00:11:24.900
The opportunities are all around us, the truth.

189
00:11:25.820 --> 00:11:28.420
When we're in this contracted state,

190
00:11:28.420 --> 00:11:31.540
one of the first things that happens is we can't see.

191
00:11:31.540 --> 00:11:33.560
Our perception is narrowed.

192
00:11:33.560 --> 00:11:35.680
We just see the problem.

193
00:11:35.680 --> 00:11:40.120
And in fact, we make the problem bigger than God very often.

194
00:11:40.120 --> 00:11:42.220
So there's so many scriptures.

195
00:11:42.220 --> 00:11:45.720
You can do your own search about awareness,

196
00:11:45.720 --> 00:11:48.500
about God opening our eyes.

197
00:11:48.500 --> 00:11:52.060
Psalms 119, God opened my eyes.

198
00:11:52.060 --> 00:11:55.500
Ephesians 1, 18, when Paul prayed that the eyes

199
00:11:55.500 --> 00:11:58.220
of our heart would be flooded with light,

200
00:11:58.220 --> 00:12:01.660
that we could see, that we could know.

201
00:12:01.660 --> 00:12:06.580
And then we also talked about Isaiah 26, 3,

202
00:12:06.580 --> 00:12:09.460
which says that he'll keep in perfect peace

203
00:12:09.460 --> 00:12:13.940
the one whose thoughts are fixed on God.

204
00:12:13.940 --> 00:12:18.160
And so this shows you that peace is connected

205
00:12:18.160 --> 00:12:21.340
to where the mind is fixed.

206
00:12:21.340 --> 00:12:24.420
Whatever we're fixing our mind on is leading

207
00:12:24.420 --> 00:12:29.220
to stress and chaos or leading to peace.

208
00:12:29.220 --> 00:12:33.460
So when we're talking from pressure to partnership,

209
00:12:33.460 --> 00:12:35.960
pressure is narrowing our vision.

210
00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:40.960
Pressure is narrowing our ability to see and to perceive.

211
00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:45.580
Partnership is opening our eyes.

212
00:12:45.580 --> 00:12:49.380
And we begin to walk in revelation.

213
00:12:50.340 --> 00:12:52.060
God wants to show.

214
00:12:52.060 --> 00:12:55.860
I mean, he says, I'll show you great and mighty things.

215
00:12:55.860 --> 00:12:59.060
Or it says, eye has not seen, ear has not heard

216
00:12:59.060 --> 00:13:01.860
what God has prepared for you.

217
00:13:01.860 --> 00:13:05.460
And yet God has revealed it to us, scripture says.

218
00:13:05.460 --> 00:13:09.660
So there's this revelation knowledge that can rise

219
00:13:09.660 --> 00:13:12.440
above what our eyes see.

220
00:13:13.500 --> 00:13:15.120
And this is part of it too.

221
00:13:15.120 --> 00:13:17.940
In your awareness, you understand,

222
00:13:17.940 --> 00:13:21.260
I've got physical eyes, ears, mouth,

223
00:13:21.260 --> 00:13:25.780
and I've got spiritual eyes, ears, mouth, right?

224
00:13:25.780 --> 00:13:28.200
All five senses.

225
00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:30.380
That's why Jesus could say you have eyes,

226
00:13:30.380 --> 00:13:31.220
but you don't see.

227
00:13:31.220 --> 00:13:33.140
You have ears, but you don't hear.

228
00:13:33.140 --> 00:13:37.380
He's like, you can physically see, but you don't see.

229
00:13:39.020 --> 00:13:44.020
So God is asking us to also awaken that.

230
00:13:44.380 --> 00:13:47.500
And so what we are beginning to focus on

231
00:13:47.500 --> 00:13:50.540
in this transformation is that pressure

232
00:13:50.540 --> 00:13:54.360
is not just external conditions.

233
00:13:55.260 --> 00:13:58.940
Pressure often has an internal script.

234
00:13:58.940 --> 00:14:02.380
When you're feeling pressure, there's a tape running.

235
00:14:02.380 --> 00:14:05.860
There's an internal script running.

236
00:14:08.260 --> 00:14:09.860
Okay?

237
00:14:09.860 --> 00:14:14.860
So the external issue might be money.

238
00:14:15.700 --> 00:14:18.860
My bank account says there's not money, or time.

239
00:14:18.860 --> 00:14:21.260
My schedule says that, or family.

240
00:14:21.260 --> 00:14:24.300
My family's a mess, or health.

241
00:14:24.300 --> 00:14:26.840
The doctor diagnosed me, or...

242
00:14:26.840 --> 00:14:30.240
So there is an external stimulus,

243
00:14:31.100 --> 00:14:33.340
but what I want you to understand

244
00:14:33.340 --> 00:14:37.200
is that underneath the external,

245
00:14:38.200 --> 00:14:40.280
there's usually a thought.

246
00:14:40.280 --> 00:14:41.940
There's a belief system.

247
00:14:44.440 --> 00:14:47.520
You can have two people,

248
00:14:48.860 --> 00:14:53.860
and you can have one person that the bank account gets low,

249
00:14:54.200 --> 00:14:57.040
and everything in their being freezes

250
00:14:58.340 --> 00:14:59.920
because of the story.

251
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:03.040
belief around lack.

252
00:15:03.040 --> 00:15:06.480
And you can have another person who's

253
00:15:06.480 --> 00:15:08.080
developed a different belief.

254
00:15:08.080 --> 00:15:10.560
I've seen this time again.

255
00:15:10.560 --> 00:15:12.040
Oh, yeah, of course, money goes out.

256
00:15:12.040 --> 00:15:15.720
There's more coming in right behind it.

257
00:15:15.720 --> 00:15:17.840
There's no, I've seen it.

258
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:22.960
They already know there's endless money coming in,

259
00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:24.880
endless opportunity.

260
00:15:24.880 --> 00:15:26.160
That doesn't faze them.

261
00:15:26.160 --> 00:15:30.960
Now, they may get attacked in a different link.

262
00:15:30.960 --> 00:15:32.720
It might be for them, their health,

263
00:15:32.720 --> 00:15:34.680
they're great with the finances, or it

264
00:15:34.680 --> 00:15:36.560
might be the relationship.

265
00:15:36.560 --> 00:15:41.520
So this awareness is that we don't just

266
00:15:41.520 --> 00:15:43.080
focus on the external.

267
00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:44.680
I've got a money problem.

268
00:15:44.680 --> 00:15:48.720
Once the outside is fixed, then everything will be better.

269
00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:52.200
Scripturally, out of the heart flows the issues of life.

270
00:15:52.200 --> 00:15:55.520
Scripturally, everything is coming from the inside.

271
00:15:55.520 --> 00:15:59.440
So when you understand, yes, there's this outer issue,

272
00:15:59.440 --> 00:16:01.800
and what do I need to do to be in alignment?

273
00:16:01.800 --> 00:16:04.880
I'm not saying be lazy and do nothing, or don't work,

274
00:16:04.880 --> 00:16:08.360
or whatever, and just go, hmm, I'm going to have money.

275
00:16:08.360 --> 00:16:11.160
I'm not saying that, OK?

276
00:16:11.160 --> 00:16:15.320
But there is a thought that is creating a state that

277
00:16:15.320 --> 00:16:17.480
is creating an action in you that

278
00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:19.760
is creating the reality that you're living.

279
00:16:19.760 --> 00:16:22.800
And we're going to walk through that process today.

280
00:16:22.800 --> 00:16:24.880
We're going to walk so you see that.

281
00:16:24.960 --> 00:16:26.960
So there's this external thing.

282
00:16:26.960 --> 00:16:30.320
Then there's this internal thought, right?

283
00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:37.680
So external condition, internal thought.

284
00:16:37.680 --> 00:16:40.240
I'm behind.

285
00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:42.840
Things never work out for me.

286
00:16:42.840 --> 00:16:47.600
In my family, I'm not enough.

287
00:16:47.600 --> 00:16:50.080
Things are always going to be like, and this is a big one,

288
00:16:50.080 --> 00:16:51.600
right?

289
00:16:51.600 --> 00:16:55.240
That I'm judging my tomorrow by today.

290
00:16:55.240 --> 00:17:00.160
So the level of expectancy, what I'm even expecting,

291
00:17:00.160 --> 00:17:04.240
of things are always going to be like this, right?

292
00:17:04.240 --> 00:17:09.240
So there's this internal thinking process.

293
00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:15.240
And we're going to see where the external condition,

294
00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:18.440
and it's triggering, and there's an internal belief

295
00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:24.560
system, which is then leading to internal values and an action

296
00:17:24.560 --> 00:17:28.960
that we take based on that, OK?

297
00:17:28.960 --> 00:17:33.840
So understand the thoughts create a state.

298
00:17:33.840 --> 00:17:38.200
And that state then determines how we breathe.

299
00:17:42.080 --> 00:17:47.160
Are we just, ah, God is so good.

300
00:17:47.160 --> 00:17:50.000
Are we going to handle this?

301
00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:58.760
Changes our state, how we speak, all is well.

302
00:17:58.760 --> 00:18:01.240
God is so good.

303
00:18:01.240 --> 00:18:04.320
I know everything's working out together for me.

304
00:18:04.320 --> 00:18:05.720
I don't know what I'm going to do.

305
00:18:05.720 --> 00:18:06.840
This stuff keeps happening.

306
00:18:06.840 --> 00:18:08.920
And if I run out of the money, and I don't have anyone

307
00:18:08.920 --> 00:18:10.640
to cover the account, and my kids are not

308
00:18:10.640 --> 00:18:13.600
going to be able to go to school, and we may lose this house,

309
00:18:13.600 --> 00:18:15.560
changes our state.

310
00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:23.960
And this changes how we sell in business.

311
00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:25.880
I've got to get that deal.

312
00:18:25.880 --> 00:18:28.840
If I don't get that, I've got to get a job, too.

313
00:18:28.840 --> 00:18:30.960
There's no clients coming in.

314
00:18:30.960 --> 00:18:39.760
How we follow up, how we price, yeah, don't worry.

315
00:18:39.760 --> 00:18:40.840
No, I could discount that.

316
00:18:40.840 --> 00:18:41.440
No, you know what?

317
00:18:41.440 --> 00:18:43.320
If you really want, we could do half of that.

318
00:18:44.040 --> 00:18:51.760
How we think, how we think, how we could, how we rest,

319
00:18:51.760 --> 00:18:57.760
how we hear God, how we see and relate to people.

320
00:19:00.760 --> 00:19:01.800
Am I talking to anyone?

321
00:19:01.800 --> 00:19:03.040
Put in the chat.

322
00:19:03.040 --> 00:19:05.600
Are you picking up what I'm putting down right here?

323
00:19:06.600 --> 00:19:09.560
When we start to understand this, oh, yeah,

324
00:19:09.560 --> 00:19:10.440
what am I thinking?

325
00:19:10.440 --> 00:19:11.720
Take every thought captive.

326
00:19:11.720 --> 00:19:13.480
Does this line up with the word?

327
00:19:13.480 --> 00:19:14.800
What am I feeling?

328
00:19:14.800 --> 00:19:16.520
What am I speaking?

329
00:19:16.520 --> 00:19:18.040
What actions am I taking?

330
00:19:18.040 --> 00:19:21.080
We start to see the connection of all of this.

331
00:19:21.080 --> 00:19:24.160
We start operating from that aware place.

332
00:19:24.160 --> 00:19:28.640
And that's why so many women that come to me,

333
00:19:28.640 --> 00:19:30.400
they're trying to take right action.

334
00:19:30.400 --> 00:19:31.320
I don't understand.

335
00:19:31.320 --> 00:19:33.560
I'm posting three times a day, and I'm

336
00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:37.640
posting three times a day, and I'm calling 15 million people,

337
00:19:37.640 --> 00:19:40.040
and I'm like, and nobody's buying.

338
00:19:40.040 --> 00:19:41.120
And I don't understand.

339
00:19:41.120 --> 00:19:44.800
They're trying to take the right action from the wrong state.

340
00:19:44.800 --> 00:19:46.400
It's like the desperate peace.

341
00:19:46.400 --> 00:19:49.120
I've asked 15 women out, and none of them want to marry me.

342
00:19:49.120 --> 00:19:50.160
And I don't understand.

343
00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:52.520
I took them to nice dinners, and I bought them rings,

344
00:19:52.520 --> 00:19:55.800
and none of them want to marry me.

345
00:19:55.800 --> 00:19:58.200
Because it's coming from the wrong.

346
00:19:58.200 --> 00:20:01.200
So we're trying to build peace from.

347
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:03.360
pressure. We're, we're trying to create overflow from

348
00:20:03.360 --> 00:20:06.840
contraction. We're trying to hear God while we're striving

349
00:20:06.840 --> 00:20:14.920
and fear is shouting so loud. Okay, so awareness. So right

350
00:20:14.920 --> 00:20:17.760
now, just let's just take a breath. Everybody just breathe

351
00:20:17.760 --> 00:20:26.080
in. Your feet are on the ground. This is the first, very first

352
00:20:26.080 --> 00:20:33.920
resource. Everything started with breath. We breathe in. We

353
00:20:33.920 --> 00:20:38.760
let the exhale be longer than the in breath. This is why we

354
00:20:38.760 --> 00:20:42.880
sigh, the body knows to sigh when you're in stress, the body

355
00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:50.560
knows. And so right now, just ask yourself, where are you

356
00:20:50.560 --> 00:20:58.000
feeling the most pressure right now? Is it money? Is it clients?

357
00:20:58.040 --> 00:21:05.280
Is it health, family, time, sales, a decision you have to

358
00:21:05.280 --> 00:21:11.320
make a relationship, your next step? Where are you feeling the

359
00:21:11.320 --> 00:21:26.440
most pressure right now? And now, what is the thought

360
00:21:27.600 --> 00:21:36.200
underneath that pressure? The thought, I don't have enough.

361
00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:41.240
I'm going to disappoint people. It's too late. I don't know how

362
00:21:41.600 --> 00:21:45.360
if I slow down, I'll lose momentum. I have to carry this.

363
00:21:45.360 --> 00:21:49.240
No one's coming. I can't trust myself. I'm not ready. Like

364
00:21:49.240 --> 00:21:57.040
what's right one sentence. What is the thought underneath that

365
00:21:57.960 --> 00:22:17.360
pressure? Write it down. So if you feel comfortable, put one

366
00:22:17.360 --> 00:22:24.360
pressure thought in the chat, put one pressure thought in the

367
00:22:24.360 --> 00:22:33.280
chat. Put one pressure thought, the thought underneath the

368
00:22:33.280 --> 00:22:39.280
pressure. Okay, so the external is money, finances, what's the

369
00:22:39.280 --> 00:22:42.520
thought underneath that? What's the pressure? What's the thought

370
00:22:42.520 --> 00:22:49.440
that leads to pressure around money or finances? Because the

371
00:22:49.440 --> 00:22:52.720
interesting thing about money finances, I've watched it time

372
00:22:53.040 --> 00:22:59.040
again, I lived it. I remember when I in the early 30s, and we

373
00:22:59.040 --> 00:23:03.640
founded a network marketing company. And like, okay, if we

374
00:23:03.640 --> 00:23:06.160
could just get to the six figures, if we can just get to

375
00:23:06.160 --> 00:23:10.000
the seventh, like, and the interesting thing is that if

376
00:23:10.000 --> 00:23:13.520
that underlying thought, it actually doesn't even matter how

377
00:23:13.520 --> 00:23:16.360
much you make it so that pressure still tends to be

378
00:23:16.640 --> 00:23:23.800
lived it, I've watched it. Okay, so, so the pressure, okay, so

379
00:23:23.800 --> 00:23:30.640
the, the external is the chronic insomnia. I'm not sleeping. The

380
00:23:30.640 --> 00:23:38.760
thought is there an answer that will resolve this issue? Okay,

381
00:23:38.880 --> 00:23:44.400
so that thought could be very empowering or disempowering. So

382
00:23:44.440 --> 00:23:48.680
empowering, huh? There's got to be an answer. I wonder what

383
00:23:48.680 --> 00:23:53.160
answer that God has for this. There's an answer for for I like

384
00:23:53.160 --> 00:23:56.000
to think for every problem, there was already an answer

385
00:23:56.000 --> 00:23:58.720
because God is the answer. And the answer comes before the

386
00:23:58.720 --> 00:24:03.960
problem, right? So that could be a very empowering thought. I

387
00:24:03.960 --> 00:24:07.840
wonder, a place of curiosity, I wonder how God's going to solve

388
00:24:07.840 --> 00:24:10.400
this? I wonder what the answer is? What's the answer that I'm

389
00:24:10.400 --> 00:24:16.320
not seeing? Or it could be a disempowering. There just isn't

390
00:24:16.320 --> 00:24:19.120
an answer. I've tried everything. I've gone to

391
00:24:19.120 --> 00:24:23.880
everything. There just isn't an answer. So there isn't an answer

392
00:24:23.880 --> 00:24:28.000
to this problem creates pressure. The belief that you

393
00:24:28.000 --> 00:24:32.480
know what, there's got to be an answer, relieves that pressure

394
00:24:32.480 --> 00:24:35.160
and puts us back in a place of creativity. Does that make

395
00:24:35.160 --> 00:24:40.280
sense? So Amanda, under the money and finances, what's the

396
00:24:40.280 --> 00:24:45.800
underlying thought that creates pressure? Because it's not just

397
00:24:45.800 --> 00:24:49.120
money. Money is just piece of paper. You could use it for

398
00:24:49.120 --> 00:24:51.240
toilet paper, wipe your butt with it. It's just a piece of

399
00:24:51.240 --> 00:24:54.520
paper, right? Just to be graphic. I mean, it's nothing.

400
00:24:54.520 --> 00:24:59.880
We put this energy into money, because we believe about

401
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:01.840
any certain thoughts.

402
00:25:04.080 --> 00:25:06.060
Money's just a piece of paper, it's nothing.

403
00:25:06.060 --> 00:25:08.560
If you think about the history of money,

404
00:25:08.560 --> 00:25:10.560
it was a form of trading.

405
00:25:10.560 --> 00:25:13.480
We started with like beads, right?

406
00:25:13.480 --> 00:25:15.020
And then we went into coins

407
00:25:15.020 --> 00:25:16.520
and then we went into paper money.

408
00:25:16.520 --> 00:25:18.280
It's just a way of doing trade,

409
00:25:18.280 --> 00:25:22.080
like instead of trading how many sheep equals one cow

410
00:25:22.080 --> 00:25:26.760
or how many cows equal getting your eggs or whatever,

411
00:25:26.760 --> 00:25:28.560
it became a way of trading.

412
00:25:28.600 --> 00:25:33.600
So when you can move the thoughts and emotions out of money,

413
00:25:33.760 --> 00:25:35.440
you can begin to create it.

414
00:25:35.440 --> 00:25:38.140
But when there's an underlying money,

415
00:25:38.140 --> 00:25:40.840
if I run out, my life ends,

416
00:25:40.840 --> 00:25:45.840
without it, I'm not secure or without it, it's my story.

417
00:25:46.880 --> 00:25:51.880
So what do you think would be the underlying thought?

418
00:25:52.840 --> 00:25:54.800
Because it's not the circumstances.

419
00:25:54.800 --> 00:25:59.800
When we have a belief in luck,

420
00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:04.480
it'll stay with you no matter how much.

421
00:26:05.440 --> 00:26:08.220
But what is the thought underneath it about money?

422
00:26:09.080 --> 00:26:13.840
Anybody else wanna put a thought underneath?

423
00:26:13.840 --> 00:26:18.840
Are you guys picking up what I'm putting down here on this?

424
00:26:25.640 --> 00:26:29.080
Because this is like the first step is the awareness.

425
00:26:29.080 --> 00:26:31.680
Okay, I think I have a money problem,

426
00:26:31.680 --> 00:26:34.920
but I actually have a thinking problem under the money.

427
00:26:34.920 --> 00:26:37.420
What am I believing about money?

428
00:26:39.540 --> 00:26:42.000
Am I believing that money will solve my problem?

429
00:26:42.000 --> 00:26:43.720
Am I believing money is my source?

430
00:26:44.560 --> 00:26:45.680
Am I believing my identity?

431
00:26:45.680 --> 00:26:46.920
What are people gonna think?

432
00:26:46.920 --> 00:26:49.000
Depends how much money I have.

433
00:26:49.000 --> 00:26:53.520
Am I believing like credibility and authority?

434
00:26:53.520 --> 00:26:57.020
Like, what am I attaching to the money?

435
00:26:58.720 --> 00:27:02.840
For some people, for the wealthiest people that I know,

436
00:27:02.840 --> 00:27:05.000
money is actually a game.

437
00:27:05.000 --> 00:27:06.000
It's a scorecard.

438
00:27:06.000 --> 00:27:07.680
It's like playing Monopoly.

439
00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:11.720
It's like actually fun because it's a game

440
00:27:11.720 --> 00:27:13.320
and they're not attached to it.

441
00:27:15.200 --> 00:27:16.420
So it's kind of fun.

442
00:27:16.420 --> 00:27:21.420
Okay, so it's around time.

443
00:27:21.640 --> 00:27:26.640
Okay, so there's a root is stability, okay?

444
00:27:26.800 --> 00:27:29.360
Because what I want you to notice in these thoughts

445
00:27:29.360 --> 00:27:31.500
is they've got some kind of core categories

446
00:27:31.500 --> 00:27:32.840
that they fall under.

447
00:27:32.840 --> 00:27:37.840
It's usually around identity or safety

448
00:27:38.560 --> 00:27:41.940
or provision or trust.

449
00:27:41.940 --> 00:27:44.760
Like these thoughts have some categories

450
00:27:44.760 --> 00:27:46.120
that are common to man.

451
00:27:46.120 --> 00:27:47.120
It's not just you.

452
00:27:47.120 --> 00:27:49.120
This is so common.

453
00:27:49.120 --> 00:27:51.940
But that awareness creates change.

454
00:27:53.560 --> 00:27:58.560
So now I want you just to go a little deeper.

455
00:27:58.920 --> 00:27:59.840
This is immersive.

456
00:27:59.840 --> 00:28:01.920
We're experiencing this.

457
00:28:01.920 --> 00:28:04.280
So close your eyes if you're comfortable.

458
00:28:04.280 --> 00:28:07.100
Take a slow breath again.

459
00:28:08.680 --> 00:28:13.680
And get in touch with the pressure thought

460
00:28:13.960 --> 00:28:15.740
in your mind gently.

461
00:28:16.800 --> 00:28:21.460
Feel that thought, that pressure thought, that belief.

462
00:28:23.600 --> 00:28:28.600
And now when you believe that thought,

463
00:28:31.160 --> 00:28:33.000
what happens in your body?

464
00:28:33.000 --> 00:28:35.800
Get in touch with your body now for a second.

465
00:28:37.840 --> 00:28:42.580
When you believe that thought, what happens in your body?

466
00:28:42.580 --> 00:28:45.200
Do your shoulders tighten?

467
00:28:45.200 --> 00:28:46.920
Does your chest contract?

468
00:28:46.920 --> 00:28:49.040
Does your stomach drop?

469
00:28:49.040 --> 00:28:50.800
Does your jaw clench?

470
00:28:50.800 --> 00:28:53.280
Does your breathing get shallow?

471
00:28:53.280 --> 00:28:54.400
Do you feel heavy?

472
00:28:54.400 --> 00:28:55.640
Do you feel frozen?

473
00:28:55.640 --> 00:28:56.880
Do you feel shaky?

474
00:28:56.880 --> 00:28:58.160
Do you feel small?

475
00:28:59.360 --> 00:29:01.740
What happens?

476
00:29:03.860 --> 00:29:05.960
So you've got a circumstance.

477
00:29:05.960 --> 00:29:09.940
You've got a pressure thought that you're believing.

478
00:29:09.940 --> 00:29:12.120
Now get in touch with that pressure thought.

479
00:29:12.120 --> 00:29:17.120
When I believe that, what do you feel in your body?

480
00:29:22.040 --> 00:29:23.280
What do you feel?

481
00:29:32.920 --> 00:29:34.620
Can you tap into that?

482
00:29:34.620 --> 00:29:36.620
Can you touch into that?

483
00:29:36.620 --> 00:29:37.820
Everybody getting it?

484
00:29:39.900 --> 00:29:42.380
Like does your heart just sink?

485
00:29:42.380 --> 00:29:44.700
We have words for this, right?

486
00:29:44.700 --> 00:29:46.460
We say I have a pit, you know,

487
00:29:46.460 --> 00:29:49.020
I have something in the pit of my stomach

488
00:29:49.020 --> 00:29:52.620
or my heart just sank or dropped or like,

489
00:29:52.620 --> 00:29:54.740
we've got words for this

490
00:29:54.740 --> 00:29:57.060
because it's a physiological thing.

491
00:29:59.700 --> 00:30:00.540
What happens?

492
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:12.680
happens. Now, when you believe that thought, what do you then

493
00:30:13.520 --> 00:30:20.720
desire to do? What do you what do you use the word want? But

494
00:30:20.720 --> 00:30:23.920
what I mean is desire? What do you want to do? Right? Do you?

495
00:30:24.280 --> 00:30:31.200
Do you want to hide? Do you want to push and overwork? Do you

496
00:30:31.200 --> 00:30:37.480
want to avoid? You want to control? Do you just want to

497
00:30:37.480 --> 00:30:42.360
collapse? You want to get lost? You want to get in a scroll? You

498
00:30:42.360 --> 00:30:46.880
want to just lose yourself in the Netflix? Do you want to

499
00:30:46.880 --> 00:30:49.840
chase you want to go silent? Do you want to start writing

500
00:30:49.840 --> 00:30:53.280
desperate messages? You want to call people you want to stop

501
00:30:53.280 --> 00:30:58.480
showing up? You want to just disappear? So what do you feel

502
00:30:58.480 --> 00:31:03.560
in your body? And then when you believe this? What? What are you

503
00:31:03.560 --> 00:31:15.360
led to do? What do you feel like doing? Like for me? Honestly?

504
00:31:15.640 --> 00:31:19.360
Okay, good, Amanda. Um, you get more tense. Good. You're in

505
00:31:19.360 --> 00:31:21.400
touch with that. And then you want to control and you want to

506
00:31:21.400 --> 00:31:28.000
overthink? Yeah. Jackie, I want to, I want to process out loud

507
00:31:28.000 --> 00:31:31.600
with God. Yes, you've been spending a lot of time with God.

508
00:31:31.600 --> 00:31:36.000
So you've developed a, a mechanism to be able to try to

509
00:31:36.000 --> 00:31:38.560
work through this. You've, you've taught yourself how to

510
00:31:38.560 --> 00:31:42.400
get out of the pressure cooker, right? Which is why that's so

511
00:31:42.400 --> 00:31:48.440
much part of your ministry. Right? I often say the reason I

512
00:31:48.440 --> 00:31:52.240
hear from God and have such intimacy and spend so much time

513
00:31:52.240 --> 00:31:56.560
with God, because I was in the pressure cooker as a child. And

514
00:31:56.560 --> 00:32:01.560
even in my marriage, and there was no one I could turn to. And

515
00:32:01.560 --> 00:32:07.280
so I had to turn even from a young age to God, God had to be

516
00:32:07.280 --> 00:32:12.560
there, he had to show up. So I believe that's been the case for

517
00:32:12.560 --> 00:32:16.320
you, Jackie, we've talked about right, so you're processing that

518
00:32:16.320 --> 00:32:19.640
way. I just, I just want to get it out. I want to talk it out

519
00:32:19.640 --> 00:32:26.000
with God. And Job was like that, wasn't he? Job was like, really

520
00:32:26.000 --> 00:32:28.960
asking God questions. And then God turns around, like, let me

521
00:32:28.960 --> 00:32:38.480
ask you some questions. Right? Okay. So I want you to

522
00:32:38.480 --> 00:32:46.640
understand the implications of this. From a health standpoint.

523
00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:53.920
This was when I first really began to understand this. And

524
00:32:53.920 --> 00:32:57.280
there was a book that first unlocked it for me, it was by

525
00:32:57.280 --> 00:33:00.960
Carol Truman, and it's called feelings buried alive, never

526
00:33:00.960 --> 00:33:07.640
die. And I later I have some big PhD versions of the idea of how

527
00:33:07.640 --> 00:33:13.520
our thoughts affect. And and then I found someone that does

528
00:33:13.520 --> 00:33:19.000
saliva testing. Now, a lot of it can be done through again,

529
00:33:19.000 --> 00:33:21.760
through through the energy released in your body with

530
00:33:21.760 --> 00:33:28.320
computers. And you find that this goes to certain parts of

531
00:33:28.320 --> 00:33:31.600
your body. So I begin to see like, wow, these thoughts are

532
00:33:31.600 --> 00:33:37.000
not neutral, they're creating my health or my lack of health. And

533
00:33:37.000 --> 00:33:41.880
then I began to see, wow, this is creating my state and how I

534
00:33:41.880 --> 00:33:50.160
act. And this is then beginning to design my life. And so if, as

535
00:33:50.160 --> 00:33:54.400
we understand that this is creating a state, we have to

536
00:33:54.400 --> 00:34:00.000
learn how to shift the state. Now, of course, this was Tony

537
00:34:00.000 --> 00:34:04.040
Robbins, big body of work, he understood state, I like

538
00:34:04.080 --> 00:34:06.880
understanding it from a biblical standpoint. And even though

539
00:34:06.880 --> 00:34:09.840
Tony Robbins, you know, is a Christian and believes in God,

540
00:34:09.840 --> 00:34:15.080
or he says, but I, um, I had to go deep to make sure it lined up

541
00:34:15.080 --> 00:34:17.760
with the word, because I was trained in that in my in my

542
00:34:17.760 --> 00:34:21.679
youth, because Tony Robbins is like, the first thing you got to

543
00:34:21.679 --> 00:34:25.560
do is change your state. And there's true when you're stuck,

544
00:34:25.639 --> 00:34:29.199
like this stuff gets stuck in your cells, shake it out, get on

545
00:34:29.199 --> 00:34:33.560
a rebound, or dance, move, like strut, like there's true, like

546
00:34:33.560 --> 00:34:37.560
if you can move your body, if you can change your posture, you

547
00:34:37.560 --> 00:34:40.960
can begin to change your state. So there is, there is some

548
00:34:40.960 --> 00:34:46.080
truth. I wanted to see what scripture said, and how God did

549
00:34:46.080 --> 00:34:52.120
this, and are there examples, and there is. Okay, so let's go

550
00:34:52.120 --> 00:34:57.720
through a practice real quick that you can do over and over

551
00:34:57.840 --> 00:35:00.080
for yourself. Some of you are doing part

552
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:13.560
Or all of this, let's go through the steps that the state shift where we move from pressure to partnership, focusing on the renewing of the mind.

553
00:35:13.560 --> 00:35:26.320
Okay, so the 1st step is always breathe, so learn how to pause and breathe.

554
00:35:26.320 --> 00:35:41.880
Learn how to take one slow breath in, open your chest, breathe in, and I like to just believe I'm breathing in like the breath of God, right? I love visualizing that way.

555
00:35:41.880 --> 00:36:05.400
Okay, and then when we exhale, I like to see that I'm just releasing it all and I kind of just let my whole body go, like I can unclench and this is where the sigh like, so try that 1st step one that we can do so easily anywhere.

556
00:36:05.400 --> 00:36:21.360
You can be in a car, you can go in a bathroom for a second, you could be in a heated debate or argument or whatever, and just go and do this 1st, just breathe or this is getting to you the anxiety around the money or the health and it's getting to you.

557
00:36:21.360 --> 00:36:49.000
Step 1, learn to go to the breath and so try it right now, just breathe in, hold it at the top, and then let everything go with a big sigh, let your shoulders go down, let your jaw unclench, try it with me.

558
00:36:49.000 --> 00:37:18.600
I want you to experience this, we're going to go through all the steps, okay, try it with me, so breathe in the breath of God, hold, now let it go, let everything jaw unclench, body release, everything, a lot of times you can do this, put your hand on your heart.

559
00:37:19.400 --> 00:37:45.080
Okay, step 1, breathe. Step 2, now pray and the prayer is around awareness, the prayer is, Lord, open my eyes, Lord, show me what I'm believing.

560
00:37:45.080 --> 00:37:55.480
Some of my favorite prayers are, what am I not seeing?

561
00:37:55.480 --> 00:38:20.280
So, I begin when I'm in this, and it might be just like morning meditations and everything is fine and I just want to grow and I want to hear from God, or it might be in the thick of it when I'm feeling the pressure and I'm believing the thoughts and I'm contracting, the 1st thing I've trained myself to do is breathe.

562
00:38:20.280 --> 00:38:50.040
And I understand that the exhale, that the body designed it, when you're stressed, you naturally sigh, so I know to do a long exhale and it's like, let, I just visualize just letting all of it go, and then I know the transformation starts with awareness, and so I begin to ask God, Lord, open my eyes.

563
00:38:51.160 --> 00:38:56.680
I say, Lord, Romans 8, 28 says, everything is working together for my good.

564
00:38:57.800 --> 00:39:07.640
For those that love God, everything's working together for God, so Lord, I stand on your word that everything's working for my good, but this doesn't feel good right now.

565
00:39:08.520 --> 00:39:12.760
So, what is the good here that I'm not seeing?

566
00:39:14.680 --> 00:39:17.480
What's the good here that I'm not seeing?

567
00:39:17.560 --> 00:39:30.600
I will often, you know, my two-pen journaling, where I'll write my question in my pink gel pen, God, what do you want me to see here?

568
00:39:30.600 --> 00:39:34.920
What do you want me to, what do you desire me to know about this?

569
00:39:35.560 --> 00:39:38.040
What do you desire me to understand?

570
00:39:38.200 --> 00:39:40.200
What do you desire me to understand?

571
00:39:41.720 --> 00:39:50.200
Open my eyes, Lord, like you opened Hagar's eyes to see the well, open my eyes to see the situation through your eyes.

572
00:39:51.480 --> 00:39:54.120
Lord, how do you see this person?

573
00:39:55.080 --> 00:39:57.880
Lord, how do you see me?

574
00:39:58.760 --> 00:40:00.600
Lord, how do you see me?

575
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:02.600
Do you see this situation?

576
00:40:05.040 --> 00:40:09.120
I'm fortunate, I have a very good friend,

577
00:40:09.120 --> 00:40:10.840
he's like a big brother to me,

578
00:40:10.840 --> 00:40:12.640
who drives me to San Francisco.

579
00:40:12.640 --> 00:40:14.400
I hate driving, it's a two hour drive.

580
00:40:14.400 --> 00:40:15.960
He drives me to San Francisco.

581
00:40:15.960 --> 00:40:19.600
He's a counselor to men, and especially tough.

582
00:40:19.600 --> 00:40:22.960
The vets, he's a vet, Desert Storm, all of that,

583
00:40:22.960 --> 00:40:23.960
and he loves God.

584
00:40:23.960 --> 00:40:26.360
He's just so trained in the scriptures and stuff.

585
00:40:26.360 --> 00:40:29.600
So we get two people that love God, that love the word,

586
00:40:29.600 --> 00:40:33.160
and it makes for an amazing, deep, rich conversation

587
00:40:33.160 --> 00:40:34.880
for two hours, right?

588
00:40:34.880 --> 00:40:37.560
And one of the things I saw,

589
00:40:37.560 --> 00:40:39.720
because he's getting ready to move to Colombia,

590
00:40:39.720 --> 00:40:42.520
his fiance is over there, he's starting a whole life,

591
00:40:42.520 --> 00:40:47.520
she's Colombian, and circumstances have delayed this trip,

592
00:40:47.720 --> 00:40:51.840
and as frustrating that is, like a house foreclosure,

593
00:40:51.840 --> 00:40:54.120
not going through, the stress of that.

594
00:40:54.120 --> 00:40:56.680
He's already sent all of his stuff to Texas,

595
00:40:56.680 --> 00:40:59.640
his car's in Texas, he's sitting in an empty house,

596
00:40:59.640 --> 00:41:01.800
and the whole thing falls through.

597
00:41:01.800 --> 00:41:04.520
And then the second one that comes,

598
00:41:04.520 --> 00:41:07.440
and like dirty pool happened,

599
00:41:07.440 --> 00:41:09.960
like changing numbers, all kinds of stuff.

600
00:41:09.960 --> 00:41:13.320
And it's like the VA got involved,

601
00:41:13.320 --> 00:41:15.520
and it's like start all over again.

602
00:41:15.520 --> 00:41:19.280
And each time it means like another month stuck here.

603
00:41:19.280 --> 00:41:23.440
Your love is here, you're not working,

604
00:41:23.440 --> 00:41:25.200
your money hasn't come through,

605
00:41:25.200 --> 00:41:27.560
like stress, the house is not selling,

606
00:41:27.560 --> 00:41:29.480
and like what, all over again,

607
00:41:29.480 --> 00:41:31.600
and like frustration that could come in,

608
00:41:31.600 --> 00:41:33.760
and anxiety that could come in,

609
00:41:33.760 --> 00:41:36.600
and like so much could come in.

610
00:41:36.600 --> 00:41:39.320
And I said, do you realize,

611
00:41:39.320 --> 00:41:41.520
because what it's forced is,

612
00:41:41.520 --> 00:41:43.760
they have to have long phone

613
00:41:43.760 --> 00:41:47.880
or see each other phone conversations every day

614
00:41:47.880 --> 00:41:49.280
for month after month,

615
00:41:49.280 --> 00:41:53.000
and the depth of the things that they've covered,

616
00:41:53.040 --> 00:41:54.560
and understanding, I said,

617
00:41:54.560 --> 00:41:58.360
do you realize you would not have had

618
00:41:58.360 --> 00:42:00.760
the kind of relationship as far as I'm concerned,

619
00:42:00.760 --> 00:42:01.800
if you had just gone there,

620
00:42:01.800 --> 00:42:02.960
and things were hot and heavy,

621
00:42:02.960 --> 00:42:04.240
and you're married, and you're busy,

622
00:42:04.240 --> 00:42:05.480
and you're starting life,

623
00:42:05.480 --> 00:42:09.200
I don't believe all of this depth would have happened.

624
00:42:09.200 --> 00:42:11.640
And he's like, you're absolutely right.

625
00:42:11.640 --> 00:42:14.680
That's an example of what's the good here

626
00:42:14.680 --> 00:42:17.320
that I'm not seeing when there's a delay,

627
00:42:17.320 --> 00:42:19.320
when it looks like nothing's working,

628
00:42:19.320 --> 00:42:22.840
but God, you said everything's working together

629
00:42:23.680 --> 00:42:24.520
for my good.

630
00:42:24.520 --> 00:42:28.000
What's the good here that I'm not seeing, right?

631
00:42:28.000 --> 00:42:30.240
So step one, breathe.

632
00:42:30.240 --> 00:42:32.000
Step two, pray.

633
00:42:32.000 --> 00:42:35.120
And that prayer is around awareness.

634
00:42:35.120 --> 00:42:38.560
What am I not seeing, right?

635
00:42:38.560 --> 00:42:42.680
And so then you go into step three,

636
00:42:43.920 --> 00:42:46.040
which is one of the things

637
00:42:46.040 --> 00:42:48.200
you're asking to be revealed in step two

638
00:42:48.200 --> 00:42:50.560
is what's the lie that I'm believing?

639
00:42:51.560 --> 00:42:56.560
What am I believing that's not lining up with truth?

640
00:42:56.920 --> 00:43:00.080
That's not lining up with who you are, God.

641
00:43:00.080 --> 00:43:04.080
That's not lining up with what you've promised for my life.

642
00:43:04.080 --> 00:43:08.240
That's not lining up with what I'm believing about myself.

643
00:43:08.240 --> 00:43:11.240
You see, that awareness lets you see the gap,

644
00:43:11.240 --> 00:43:12.760
the discrepancy.

645
00:43:13.960 --> 00:43:18.160
And so I've prayed, I'm asking for revelation,

646
00:43:18.240 --> 00:43:23.000
and I'm asking to start discerning the stories,

647
00:43:23.000 --> 00:43:26.360
the narratives, the things I picked up generationally

648
00:43:26.360 --> 00:43:28.800
or experientially that I'm believing

649
00:43:28.800 --> 00:43:31.440
that don't line up with the word.

650
00:43:32.520 --> 00:43:37.520
Because now comes your God-given ability to choose.

651
00:43:40.200 --> 00:43:41.360
After awareness,

652
00:43:41.360 --> 00:43:44.560
awareness is the first step to transformation.

653
00:43:44.560 --> 00:43:49.560
After awareness comes your God-given ability to choose.

654
00:43:49.840 --> 00:43:52.800
And one of the things, again, mind, heart, mouth,

655
00:43:52.800 --> 00:43:56.040
I can begin now as I'm renewing my mind,

656
00:43:56.040 --> 00:43:59.520
checking my body and my feelings and changing my state,

657
00:43:59.520 --> 00:44:02.080
I can change my words,

658
00:44:02.080 --> 00:44:04.640
of course, affirmations, declarations,

659
00:44:04.640 --> 00:44:09.640
but part of those that has been so powerful for me

660
00:44:09.700 --> 00:44:13.580
is learning how to come out of agreement.

661
00:44:15.200 --> 00:44:18.120
So when you bought into a story,

662
00:44:18.120 --> 00:44:21.120
you agreed to its truth in your life.

663
00:44:21.120 --> 00:44:24.340
So if you bought into the story of lack,

664
00:44:24.340 --> 00:44:27.760
that we've been conditioned to believe,

665
00:44:27.760 --> 00:44:29.800
we've been trained in lack,

666
00:44:29.800 --> 00:44:33.200
there's not enough, okay?

667
00:44:35.000 --> 00:44:38.680
And I've bought into the idea of lack,

668
00:44:39.760 --> 00:44:42.360
which I did because I was trained in it,

669
00:44:42.360 --> 00:44:43.560
it was spoken so much.

670
00:44:43.560 --> 00:44:44.920
Money doesn't grow on trees,

671
00:44:44.920 --> 00:44:46.100
how are you going to afford that?

672
00:44:46.100 --> 00:44:47.160
Where's that going to come from?

673
00:44:47.160 --> 00:44:48.320
We can't do that.

674
00:44:48.320 --> 00:44:50.720
I bought into the belief in lack.

675
00:44:50.720 --> 00:44:52.120
The sky is falling.

676
00:44:52.120 --> 00:44:55.440
I had a father that even though was a millionaire,

677
00:44:55.440 --> 00:44:57.360
the sky was always falling,

678
00:44:57.360 --> 00:45:00.280
and I married into someone that came out.

679
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:08.720
of poverty who had that built in that the sky was always falling. Okay? And so I had that in me. It

680
00:45:08.720 --> 00:45:16.960
was in my cells. I had to get in the habit of breaking agreement. I would literally say I break

681
00:45:16.960 --> 00:45:24.320
agreement with the belief in lack. There is abundance. I look at God and I look at the stars.

682
00:45:24.320 --> 00:45:29.280
I look at the heavens. I look at the blades of grass. I look at the number of trees. I look at

683
00:45:29.280 --> 00:45:36.640
the number of lemons on my lemon trees and how one seed can create an orchard. I look at the

684
00:45:36.640 --> 00:45:42.480
endless of what God has created. I break association with the belief in lack and I

685
00:45:42.480 --> 00:45:47.760
come into alignment that God, you are an abundant God. You are a God of overflow.

686
00:45:47.760 --> 00:45:56.560
My life will line up with overflow. Okay? So we come out of agreement. I come out of

687
00:45:56.640 --> 00:46:04.400
agreement with pressure. I come out of agreement with fear. I come out of agreement with lack.

688
00:46:05.600 --> 00:46:11.440
I come out of agreement. This is another one I had to come out of agreement with.

689
00:46:11.440 --> 00:46:19.360
I came up with the story and I believed it and I lived it because I had two unavailable parents,

690
00:46:19.360 --> 00:46:26.160
both of them drugs and alcohol. One of them workaholism. I was left to my own devices.

691
00:46:26.160 --> 00:46:33.120
I could disappear. Now, when I was young, you could. You could just be gone all day till dark

692
00:46:33.120 --> 00:46:38.240
and nobody would notice and nobody cared. We don't do that now, right? Everybody's glued to a

693
00:46:38.240 --> 00:46:42.800
phone and we know exactly where they're going. It wasn't like that growing up, if any of you remember.

694
00:46:43.520 --> 00:46:49.040
But as a child, that's good. I could disappear and play and be in the woods or on my horse or

695
00:46:49.040 --> 00:46:56.480
in the barn or whatever. Okay, that's good. But it was also a belief system that got

696
00:46:56.480 --> 00:47:05.200
seeded very young and maybe some of you have it. I'm all alone. There's no one to help me.

697
00:47:06.080 --> 00:47:14.000
Okay, if it's to be, it's up to me. And this translated into overworking, overthinking,

698
00:47:14.000 --> 00:47:21.680
overachieving, and coming from a place of lack. So, breaking the agreement with lack and breaking

699
00:47:21.680 --> 00:47:28.080
the agreement with the belief that I'm all alone. So again, I had to replace the lies with truth.

700
00:47:28.080 --> 00:47:34.240
And I've taught some of you, you can even write out the lie, take a record of it,

701
00:47:34.560 --> 00:47:43.920
take a red pen because we're very visual. Jesus God always used visual things to help them get it,

702
00:47:43.920 --> 00:47:48.640
right? So, you could draw a line through what you're breaking, a red line through what you're

703
00:47:48.640 --> 00:47:56.240
breaking. I write down the word lack or I lack and put a red line through it and then write the truth

704
00:47:56.240 --> 00:48:03.760
and speak the truth and begin to declare the truth and begin to visualize the truth. And so,

705
00:48:03.760 --> 00:48:08.400
I had to come into the truth, wait a minute, I have to be like David, I'm never alone. Where can

706
00:48:08.400 --> 00:48:13.920
I go if I go to the ends of the earth, even if I make my bed in hell, there you are. If the kingdom

707
00:48:13.920 --> 00:48:19.360
is within me, if Jesus is within me, it's not even possible to be alone. Besides what we know from

708
00:48:19.360 --> 00:48:24.320
quantum physics that we're all connected and none of us are alone, that that's an illusion, right?

709
00:48:24.320 --> 00:48:34.800
So, you see how we begin to break agreement with these things and so that step four is come

710
00:48:35.360 --> 00:48:42.320
into agreement. So, we breathe, we have awareness and in that awareness of opening our eyes,

711
00:48:42.320 --> 00:48:49.280
we discover the lie and then we break agreement with that lie. And you may have to do this more

712
00:48:49.280 --> 00:48:56.400
than once and just until it just gets in you that that is not true. It will come out of my mouth now.

713
00:48:57.040 --> 00:49:04.880
I remember one time I was sharing this with Linda, my daughter was just spewing things about me and

714
00:49:04.880 --> 00:49:10.960
they're just, they're hurtful and hateful and they're not based on truth and I was just there

715
00:49:10.960 --> 00:49:16.080
like kind of praying at that moment and I didn't respond and she's like, are you not going to

716
00:49:16.080 --> 00:49:25.120
respond? And it just came out of my mouth. I just said, that's not my reality. That's not

717
00:49:25.120 --> 00:49:30.240
my story. I'm sorry that you see it that way and you feel that way but that's not how I see it.

718
00:49:30.240 --> 00:49:38.880
So, I've come to the place where I can say, that's not my truth. That's not my reality and so then

719
00:49:38.880 --> 00:49:45.520
the next step is you come into agreement with truth and this is why you have the word and what

720
00:49:45.520 --> 00:49:52.480
God has spoken to you and the prophecy and like the Bible says, stir up the gift of prophecy

721
00:49:52.480 --> 00:49:58.640
in you and stir up the words that were spoken when the hands were laid on you and and stir up what

722
00:49:58.640 --> 00:49:59.840
the word says.

723
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:03.160
The word is a lamp unto my feet, right?

724
00:50:03.160 --> 00:50:09.560
And so now you come into agreement with truth and the truth says that by your stripes, I

725
00:50:09.560 --> 00:50:10.560
have been healed.

726
00:50:10.560 --> 00:50:13.460
Let's say I'm dealing with health thing and I've had to do this.

727
00:50:13.460 --> 00:50:15.560
By your stripes, I am healed.

728
00:50:15.560 --> 00:50:20.520
I come out of agreement with sickness and I stand on the truth.

729
00:50:20.520 --> 00:50:25.740
You know, Psalms, whatever it is, 105, you know, remember his benefits.

730
00:50:25.740 --> 00:50:28.000
He heals all your diseases.

731
00:50:28.000 --> 00:50:34.180
And I start going through all the scriptures and I speak them and I believe them and I

732
00:50:34.180 --> 00:50:38.740
will declare I am the healed of the Lord in Jesus name, right?

733
00:50:38.740 --> 00:50:42.040
And so we come into agreement.

734
00:50:42.040 --> 00:50:44.300
This could be about money, around relationships.

735
00:50:44.300 --> 00:50:46.780
I've seen marriages transform.

736
00:50:46.780 --> 00:50:54.020
I've seen health transform that when we come out of agreement, especially when an authority

737
00:50:54.020 --> 00:50:57.260
has spoken that lie to you.

738
00:50:57.260 --> 00:51:04.620
So you got from someone that you really respect, a medical authority, an educational authority,

739
00:51:04.620 --> 00:51:09.820
a church authority, a parental authority, and you just bought into that as truth because

740
00:51:09.820 --> 00:51:16.020
an authority, they had an official uniform or code or whatever, and you, you bought into

741
00:51:16.020 --> 00:51:17.020
it.

742
00:51:17.020 --> 00:51:18.020
Okay.

743
00:51:18.020 --> 00:51:23.100
Is that, are you guys picking up what I'm putting down?

744
00:51:23.100 --> 00:51:26.940
And so now you choose a truth statement.

745
00:51:26.940 --> 00:51:27.940
God is with me.

746
00:51:27.940 --> 00:51:28.940
God is my source.

747
00:51:28.940 --> 00:51:30.740
That's one I use all the time there.

748
00:51:30.740 --> 00:51:32.740
I come out of association with God.

749
00:51:32.740 --> 00:51:33.900
You are my source.

750
00:51:33.900 --> 00:51:38.140
You supply all my needs according to your riches, right?

751
00:51:38.140 --> 00:51:39.580
The Lord is my shepherd.

752
00:51:39.580 --> 00:51:41.340
I shall not lack.

753
00:51:41.340 --> 00:51:45.340
I'm using the word as a sword, which it is.

754
00:51:45.340 --> 00:51:46.620
God is opening my eyes.

755
00:51:46.620 --> 00:51:48.500
I have the mind of Christ.

756
00:51:48.500 --> 00:51:50.300
I hear God's voice.

757
00:51:50.300 --> 00:51:51.300
Okay.

758
00:51:51.300 --> 00:51:53.580
I do not have to build from pressure.

759
00:51:53.580 --> 00:51:54.580
Okay.

760
00:51:54.580 --> 00:51:59.580
God has not given me fear, but power and love and a sound mind.

761
00:51:59.580 --> 00:52:11.820
So then step five, the final five of this, okay, is God, what's the next right action

762
00:52:11.820 --> 00:52:13.680
from peace?

763
00:52:13.680 --> 00:52:16.460
So now we've gone through all these steps.

764
00:52:16.460 --> 00:52:17.460
We breathe.

765
00:52:17.460 --> 00:52:19.340
We've gotten ourself in alignment.

766
00:52:19.380 --> 00:52:21.780
We've asked God to open our eyes.

767
00:52:21.780 --> 00:52:27.540
We've discovered the lies or the untruths or the things we've been believing.

768
00:52:27.540 --> 00:52:30.740
And we've come out of agreement with those lies.

769
00:52:30.740 --> 00:52:37.180
We have now declared and stand on the truth and we're speaking the truth, the mind, heart,

770
00:52:37.180 --> 00:52:38.180
mouth connection.

771
00:52:38.180 --> 00:52:40.460
We're speaking the truth, right?

772
00:52:40.460 --> 00:52:44.540
And we're going to now walk it out.

773
00:52:44.540 --> 00:52:46.300
Action.

774
00:52:46.300 --> 00:52:56.980
So God, based on the truth that you've revealed, that you supply all my needs, that I'm co-heir

775
00:52:56.980 --> 00:53:04.220
to the kingdom, that you never leave me or forsake me.

776
00:53:04.220 --> 00:53:06.260
What action do you want me to take next?

777
00:53:06.260 --> 00:53:08.780
What's the next right action?

778
00:53:08.780 --> 00:53:15.180
Now do you see that that action now is coming from connection and partnership?

779
00:53:15.180 --> 00:53:17.180
That action is coming from abundance.

780
00:53:17.180 --> 00:53:18.720
It's coming from truth.

781
00:53:18.720 --> 00:53:20.460
It's coming from love.

782
00:53:20.460 --> 00:53:26.940
And so that action is going to produce a very different fruit than an action is I'm all

783
00:53:26.940 --> 00:53:29.940
alone and I'm running out of money and what am I going to do?

784
00:53:29.940 --> 00:53:30.940
And I'm going to work.

785
00:53:30.940 --> 00:53:31.940
I'm going to get up earlier.

786
00:53:31.940 --> 00:53:33.820
I'm going to work from five in the morning by George.

787
00:53:33.820 --> 00:53:35.620
I'm going to work till 10 at night.

788
00:53:35.620 --> 00:53:37.660
I'm going to make this.

789
00:53:37.660 --> 00:53:47.020
That's an action that's coming from fear, not love, lack, not abundance, lies, not truth,

790
00:53:47.020 --> 00:53:49.020
pressure, not partnership.

791
00:53:49.020 --> 00:53:51.660
Do you see that?

792
00:53:51.660 --> 00:53:56.100
Okay, so these are the steps.

793
00:53:56.100 --> 00:54:01.060
So what's the next action that's coming from a place of peace?

794
00:54:01.060 --> 00:54:02.460
Maybe you'll just get, Oh, that's right.

795
00:54:02.460 --> 00:54:04.020
I'm supposed to follow up.

796
00:54:04.020 --> 00:54:05.020
I'm going to call.

797
00:54:05.020 --> 00:54:07.180
I'm going to send that message.

798
00:54:07.180 --> 00:54:09.100
I'm going to rest.

799
00:54:09.100 --> 00:54:12.060
A lot of times I'll just go out in my hammock.

800
00:54:12.060 --> 00:54:13.620
That's one of my happy places.

801
00:54:13.620 --> 00:54:19.420
And I'll just be out in the sun in the hammock and just, God, I just want to be with you

802
00:54:19.420 --> 00:54:20.420
right now.

803
00:54:20.420 --> 00:54:23.420
I just want to be still, right?

804
00:54:23.420 --> 00:54:24.900
A walk.

805
00:54:24.900 --> 00:54:27.540
I'll do that a lot.

806
00:54:27.540 --> 00:54:37.060
A decision, a conversation, a boundary, a simple act of obedience.

807
00:54:37.940 --> 00:54:45.580
So I want you to go through each of these steps and write it down, including like when

808
00:54:45.580 --> 00:54:50.380
you leave here, the next right action.

809
00:54:50.380 --> 00:54:56.580
So let's have a little bit of time of sharing as we wrap this up real quick.

810
00:54:56.580 --> 00:54:58.820
What is landing for you?

811
00:54:58.820 --> 00:55:00.020
What is God speaking to you?

812
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:03.880
to you, what are you going to take from this?

813
00:55:03.880 --> 00:55:06.640
That is not information, it's transformation

814
00:55:06.640 --> 00:55:08.920
because you're going to apply it.

815
00:55:08.920 --> 00:55:12.880
What's going to be different as a result of what we're sharing?

816
00:55:15.640 --> 00:55:19.760
I want to hear from each one of you.

817
00:55:19.760 --> 00:55:21.600
By the way, some of you joined quietly.

818
00:55:21.600 --> 00:55:23.040
I didn't say hello to you.

819
00:55:23.040 --> 00:55:23.880
Hello, Bev.

820
00:55:23.880 --> 00:55:25.640
I didn't see you sneak in there.

821
00:55:25.640 --> 00:55:27.160
Great to see you.

822
00:55:27.160 --> 00:55:29.680
OK.

823
00:55:29.760 --> 00:55:33.480
All these brilliant therapists and counselors in the room,

824
00:55:33.480 --> 00:55:34.160
right?

825
00:55:34.160 --> 00:55:35.080
Love this.

826
00:55:35.080 --> 00:55:36.080
OK.

827
00:55:36.080 --> 00:55:38.920
Coaches.

828
00:55:38.920 --> 00:55:39.520
What's going on?

829
00:55:39.520 --> 00:55:41.080
What are you getting from this?

830
00:55:46.040 --> 00:55:49.160
So when you're speaking, my spirit

831
00:55:49.160 --> 00:55:52.120
is just rising up because I'm becoming more aware lately

832
00:55:52.120 --> 00:55:55.160
because you're sharing it more and more with us.

833
00:55:55.160 --> 00:55:58.880
And it's really starting to take effect in me.

834
00:55:58.960 --> 00:56:03.920
For me, I'm really noticing my breathing and my pausing.

835
00:56:03.920 --> 00:56:06.960
And I've been declaring, God, you

836
00:56:06.960 --> 00:56:08.960
are healing my nervous system.

837
00:56:08.960 --> 00:56:12.520
I may go to the chiropractor because of my back,

838
00:56:12.520 --> 00:56:16.160
but you're doing that ultimate healing within me.

839
00:56:16.160 --> 00:56:22.000
So I mean, it's becoming more an awareness and a way of life.

840
00:56:22.000 --> 00:56:23.760
Nice.

841
00:56:23.760 --> 00:56:28.720
It's there's something definitely going on in me.

842
00:56:28.720 --> 00:56:30.120
And I'm just aware.

843
00:56:30.120 --> 00:56:32.680
I was just in the bathroom this morning.

844
00:56:32.680 --> 00:56:36.160
And I started to complain just a tad.

845
00:56:36.160 --> 00:56:39.360
And I just felt I just spoke out loud.

846
00:56:39.360 --> 00:56:41.200
OK, I'm becoming like the Israelites.

847
00:56:41.200 --> 00:56:42.760
I'm complaining and bickering.

848
00:56:42.760 --> 00:56:46.320
Please shut my mouth, Lord.

849
00:56:46.320 --> 00:56:49.800
And it was a total mindset shift.

850
00:56:49.800 --> 00:56:51.760
And I actually just felt it.

851
00:56:51.760 --> 00:56:54.480
I was like, OK, we're just going to go on to the next thing.

852
00:56:54.480 --> 00:56:55.640
Nice.

853
00:56:55.640 --> 00:56:56.480
Nice.

854
00:56:56.480 --> 00:56:57.600
Thank you for sharing that.

855
00:56:57.600 --> 00:56:58.760
I love that.

856
00:56:58.760 --> 00:56:59.400
Who else?

857
00:57:03.760 --> 00:57:06.360
Mine is more kind of like how Jackie said,

858
00:57:06.360 --> 00:57:09.080
is just being more aware.

859
00:57:09.080 --> 00:57:13.400
My prayer every single morning is, God, open my eyes.

860
00:57:13.400 --> 00:57:16.880
Let me see what I am not seeing.

861
00:57:16.880 --> 00:57:20.160
What are you showing me today?

862
00:57:20.160 --> 00:57:23.800
And then also, the one thing that I

863
00:57:23.800 --> 00:57:27.600
do believe that God needs to work with me on

864
00:57:27.600 --> 00:57:34.360
is just releasing the agreement with the beliefs

865
00:57:34.360 --> 00:57:36.480
that I have told myself.

866
00:57:36.480 --> 00:57:41.880
So I love the idea of writing it down and then crossing it.

867
00:57:41.880 --> 00:57:43.280
Because I'm a visual person.

868
00:57:43.280 --> 00:57:46.680
And to actually see it, I think, will really help.

869
00:57:46.680 --> 00:57:48.960
So I'm going to work on that.

870
00:57:48.960 --> 00:57:50.320
I love it.

871
00:57:50.320 --> 00:57:54.760
It makes me so happy that both of you have already shared.

872
00:57:54.760 --> 00:57:56.200
You're experiencing awareness.

873
00:57:56.200 --> 00:57:57.320
And you're seeing change.

874
00:57:57.320 --> 00:57:58.360
That's beautiful.

875
00:57:58.360 --> 00:58:02.160
I also love that you're picking something specific

876
00:58:02.160 --> 00:58:05.400
you're going to do to take away from this.

877
00:58:05.400 --> 00:58:05.960
So I love that.

878
00:58:05.960 --> 00:58:07.280
Amanda, you're going to write.

879
00:58:07.280 --> 00:58:09.280
And you're going to draw lines through it.

880
00:58:09.280 --> 00:58:12.320
I didn't ask you that, Jackie, not to put you on the spot.

881
00:58:12.320 --> 00:58:13.840
But if you're willing, what are you

882
00:58:13.840 --> 00:58:16.840
going to do different as a result of today's call?

883
00:58:17.840 --> 00:58:20.880
Well, I do tend to write down some things.

884
00:58:20.880 --> 00:58:24.360
But the red pen idea really struck me

885
00:58:24.360 --> 00:58:25.360
as you were sharing that.

886
00:58:25.360 --> 00:58:26.720
And I put that down.

887
00:58:26.720 --> 00:58:29.480
So I would really like to be aware of that, especially

888
00:58:29.480 --> 00:58:30.000
with lack.

889
00:58:30.000 --> 00:58:32.600
Growing up with the lack, I've shared some stories

890
00:58:32.600 --> 00:58:33.680
with you about my father.

891
00:58:33.680 --> 00:58:36.800
So I've just been breaking that junk off.

892
00:58:36.800 --> 00:58:38.600
So, yeah.

893
00:58:38.600 --> 00:58:40.400
OK, good.

894
00:58:40.400 --> 00:58:41.440
All right, love to hear.

895
00:58:41.440 --> 00:58:46.280
Bev, Linda, Stacey, what are you going to do?

896
00:58:47.040 --> 00:58:47.520
OK.

897
00:58:51.320 --> 00:58:53.000
When you were talking, it reminded me

898
00:58:53.000 --> 00:58:57.240
that I have a resource in my website that's

899
00:58:57.240 --> 00:58:59.640
very similar to what you just said.

900
00:58:59.640 --> 00:59:03.360
And God is reminding me.

901
00:59:03.360 --> 00:59:06.360
Because sometimes I feel like I'm the airplane stalling.

902
00:59:06.360 --> 00:59:08.560
And you don't know which way is up and where you are.

903
00:59:08.560 --> 00:59:11.480
And you're a little whatever.

904
00:59:11.480 --> 00:59:13.840
I don't know what that thing is that's you level out.

905
00:59:14.720 --> 00:59:19.760
And God is reminding me when I'm feeling

906
00:59:19.760 --> 00:59:24.120
like I'm in the midst of the swirling storm, which

907
00:59:24.120 --> 00:59:30.560
I have lately, to stop and just have him settle me

908
00:59:30.560 --> 00:59:34.760
and tell me which way is up, what's real.

909
00:59:34.760 --> 00:59:40.200
And part of that is that breathing, moving,

910
00:59:40.200 --> 00:59:42.040
focusing on what am I feeling right now

911
00:59:42.040 --> 00:59:45.120
and releasing that or journaling through it,

912
00:59:45.120 --> 00:59:49.800
and then shifting my perspective, shifting that.

913
00:59:49.800 --> 00:59:51.320
So good.

914
00:59:51.320 --> 00:59:52.680
So good.

915
00:59:52.680 --> 00:59:53.520
All right.

916
00:59:53.520 --> 00:59:56.360
Real quick, Bev, I don't want to leave you out.

917
00:59:56.360 --> 00:59:58.960
Give me some feedback real quick.

918
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:05.000
You have to unmute yourself, though.

919
01:00:05.000 --> 01:00:11.000
What stood out for you?

920
01:00:11.000 --> 01:00:14.000
She may already be at work. Okay.

921
01:00:14.000 --> 01:00:18.000
All right, ladies, let's jump on over to office hours.

922
01:00:18.000 --> 01:00:22.000
I pray this blessed you, and I'm honored to come alongside.

923
01:00:22.000 --> 01:00:25.000
And we'll see you over in office hours.
