Fundamental Manifesting:

“Be not unequally yoked together with unbelievers…” (2 Corinthians 6:14)

Growing up in church we were taught that this scripture was referring to having relationships with non-Christians. Basically, as a Christian, we shouldn’t be hanging out with people that didn’t believe the way we did; however, this never really jived with me because that’s not what Jesus taught. Jesus was always hanging out with “non-believers”.

Be that as it may, this verse has nothing to with that anyway, it’s a statement about manifesting your heart’s desires. It’s referring to your energy and attention. Focused energy is what causes things to manifest in your physical reality, and where your attention goes your energy flows. This verse is simply telling us to not divide our energy with another person if that person is not on the same page as us.

The church butchered this verse, but so did a lot of people in the manifesting community as well. There are a ton of stories floating around out there about people who have apparently “awakened” and because their spouse or significant other didn’t awaken at the same moment, they felt that they were being instructed to leave them by their “higher self”, and so that’s exactly what they did, they broke up, and heart ache and pain and confusion set in.

C’mon ya’ll, we gotta be smarter than that!

This simple verse isn’t telling us to end relationships, it’s teaching us a fundamental aspect of manifesting. If your partner or friend doesn’t see eye-t0-eye with you about a certain thing you’re trying to manifest, then just keep it to yourself. Keep it quiet. Don’t tell anyone at all, and when it comes to pass, everyone will see it and it will be undeniable.

Over and over throughout the Bible we see Jesus telling people to simply keep their mouths shut for this very reason. On the other hand, if your partner is full agreement with you, then let it rip! Say your affirmations together and reel that sucker in!

It’s all good either way, this is just a reminder for us that if we’re in agreement with another, then go ahead and “yoke" yourselves together and bring it to pass; but if not, it’s okay, just keep it to yourself. The results are the same.

In love and light,
