Step 3: Accept

Scripture Reading

After Lot separated from him, God said to Abram, “Open your eyes, look around. Look north, south, east, and west. Everything you see, the whole land spread out before you, I will give to you and your children forever. I’ll make your descendants like dust—counting your descendants will be as impossible as counting the dust of the Earth. So—on your feet, get moving! Walk through the country, its length and breadth; I’m giving it all to you.”

Genesis 13: 14-17 (MSG)

Introductory Remarks:

The life we desire and decide to live has always been and will always be available to us but we are required to accept it every single day until it becomes our natural experience. Our consistent acceptance of health, happiness and prosperity over anything and everything else that may appear in our experience closes the gap between the life we currently live and a better life. We never need to pursue anything [or anyone]. We only need to follow these simple steps:

Major Points of the Lesson:

  1. Accept your Oneness
  2. Look for Possibilities – Open Your Inner Eyes
  3. Clear the Way
  4. Make a plan 

Quote:

“Ultimately, nothing will bring you peace but expressing fully who you are. Until that day, you are living only half a life. You’re a shell of a body walking around with an enormous amount of unrealised potential, untapped and unused.  Isn’t it time you started to explore the depths of your being? Aren’t you getting tired of living small and accepting less?

You have been set free on a journey of discovery. Now that you have awakened to your power, it’s time to take the next step. It’s time to find and fulfill your soul’s assignment.”

Assignment:

In the hour of quiet time that you have set aside, conduct a visioning exercise on one aspect of your letter to God. Focus on the area that is of the utmost concern in your mind, whether finances, spirituality, relationships and write down all that comes up for you. From that session write a 6 month plan for the implementation of that which has been revealed to you as the highest possibility in that area of your life.
