IF I STOP TRYING

Many of you came to me after our previous discussions

Asking, but Neville

If I stop trying

Won't everything

Fall apart

If I stop trying

Won't everything

Fall apart

Lemme tell you a story that will illuminate

This principle further

There was a lady in my audience in New York

Who had been trying to sell her house for two years

She had listed it with countless agents

Reduced the price repeatedly

And was constantly trying to make the sale happen

After hearing this principle she did something remarkable

She went home that night

And did what I'm teaching you

Instead of trying to sell the house

She assumed it was already sold

She sat in her favorite chair

And constructed a scene implying the sale was completed

In her imagination

She held the check in her hands

Feeling its crisp texture

She felt the joy and relief of the completed sale

Most importantly, she stopped trying to sell it

Within one week

A buyer appeared who purchased the house

At her original asking price

You see, the lady's constant trying was her confession

Of not having

And therefore she could only reap

The harvest of not having

The moment she assumed the completed state

The law of consciousness had to operate

To bring it into her experience

If I stop trying

Won't everything

Fall apart

If I stop trying

Won't everything

Fall apart

Lemme take you deeper into scripture

For remember

The Bible is not telling the story

Of historical events

But is revealing

Eternal psychological truth

Consider the story of the Israelites

Trying to enter the promised land

For 40 years, they wandered in the wilderness

Trying to reach their destination

But it was only when they stopped trying

When they followed the instruction to stand still

And see the salvation of the Lord

That the walls of Jericho fell

And they entered their promised land

This is not just a historical account

It is your story

Your desire is your promised land

And your trying is your wilderness wondering

The walls of Jericho represent

All the seeming obstacles between you and your desire

But these walls fall not by effort

But by assumption

If I stop trying

Won't everything

Fall apart

If I stop trying

Won't everything

Fall apart

If I stop trying

Won't everything

Fall apart

If I stop trying

Won't everything

Fall apart
