1-6-19 – MEDITATION, PRAYER AND INTENTION: Creating the Future with a Threefold Cord Not Easily Broken, Part I
TODAY’S NOTES:
I – “And if one person is vulnerable to attack, two can drive the attacker away. As the saying goes, ‘A rope made of three strands is not quickly broken.’”
(Ecclesiastes 4:12 – The Voice)
II – “By yourself you’re unprotected.
With a friend you can face the worst.
Can you round up a third?
A three-stranded rope isn’t easily snapped.”
(Ecclesiastes 4:12 – The Messages)
III – “One of the most important things to know about using the power of the mind to manifest your desires, is the difference between intending and prayer. For what is within our power and wisdom to specify, we may intend. For what is beyond our power to direct or wisdom to specify, we may pray about it. Intending and prayer are the ways we bring our intentions into manifesting in reality.
Intending and praying are two different ways of causing things to happen supernaturally. The only real difference between intending and praying is whom you address. By intending, you acknowledge yourself as the source of power influencing reality. By requesting, you humbly address forces wiser and more powerful than yourself. Intending is a lower level intention whereas prayer is a higher level intention.
Intend for the mundane things you know you need. Intend for a good parking spot, intend for the perfect product or service at the perfect price, intend for a good job when you’re looking for one, intend for a positive and exciting day. Intend or it will be left to chance.” – Noctis Enoch
IV – “When a caterpillar spins its cocoon, it goes through a transformative process and then emerges as a butterfly. Similarly, when we go through a practice of meditation and prayer, we loosen our egoic grip on a sense of self that is separate from the Whole and become vehicles of the emergent evolutionary paradigm of love, peace , compassion, wisdom, harmony and oneness that seeks expression on the planet.” – Michael Beckwith
V – PRAYER IS YOUR SPEAKING TO GOD AND MEDITATION IS YOUR ALLOWING THE SPIRIT TO SPEAK TO YOU. BUT IT SPEAKS IN SILENCE AND MANIFESTS AS INTUITION. – Deepak Chopra
VI – SCIENTIFIC SUPPORT FOR COLLECTIVE MEDITATION-PRAYER – “DNA gives off a frequency that arranges and affects the molecular structures, both inside our body, creating health or illness, and outside our body. Therefore, as we change our emotions and thoughts, we create a feeling that changes the DNA. This change in DNA changes the consciousness pattern outside of ourselves in all of nature, including us human beings and our consciousness, as we are a part of nature. By this state of our consciousness we have the opportunity to create a social matrix of peace that can heal the planet.” – Dr. Gabriel Cousens
VII – “Choose to be in close proximity to people who are empowering, who appeal to your sense of connection to intention, who see the greatness in you, who feel connected to God, who live a life that gives evidence that Spirit has found celebration through them.” – Wayne Dyer
