Follow Your Intuitive Leads - Florence Scovel Shinn


 

The following is an excerpt from The Game of Life and How to Play It by Florence Scovel Shinn.


Intuition or Guidance

"In all thy ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct thy paths." (Proverbs 3:6)


Follow Your Intuitive Leads

There is nothing too great of accomplishment for the man who knows the power of his word, and who follows his intuitive leads. By the word he starts in action unseen forces and can rebuild his body or remold his affairs.


Carefully Select the Affirmation

It is, therefore, of the utmost importance to choose the right words, and the student carefully selects the affirmation he wishes to catapult into the invisible.


Your Spoken Word Releases God's Supply

He knows that God is his supply, that there is a supply for every demand, and that his spoken word releases this supply.


"Ask and ye shall receive." (John 16:24)


You Must Make the First Move

Man must make the first move. "Draw nigh to God and He will draw nigh to you." (James 4:8)


I have often been asked just how to make a demonstration.


Speak the Word and Then Act on a Definite Lead

I reply: "Speak the word and then do not do anything until you get a definite lead." Demand the lead, saying, "Infinite Spirit, reveal to me the way, let me know if there is anything for me to do."


Your Lead Will Come Through a Hunch

The answer will come through intuition (or hunch); a chance remark from someone, or a passage in a book, etc., etc. The answers are sometimes quite startling in their exactness. For example: A woman desired a large sum of money. She spoke the words: "Infinite Spirit, open the way for my immediate supply, let all that is mine by divine right now reach me, in great avalanches of abundance." Then she added: "Give me a definite lead, let me know if there is anything for me to do."


The thought came quickly, "Give a certain friend" (who had helped her spiritually) "a hundred dollars." She told her friend, who said, "Wait and get another lead, before giving it." So she waited, and that day met a woman who said to her, "I gave someone a dollar today; it was just as much for me, as it would be for you to give someone a hundred."


This was indeed an unmistakable lead, so she knew she was right in giving the hundred dollars. It was a gift which proved a great investment, for shortly after that, a large sum of money came to her in a remarkable way.


Giving Opens the Way For Receiving

Giving opens the way for receiving. In order to create activity in finances, one should give. Tithing or giving one-tenth of one's income, is an old Jewish custom, and is sure to bring increase. Many of the richest men in this country have been tithers, and I have never known it to fail as an investment.


Bills Should Be Paid Cheerfully and With a Blessing

The tenth-part goes forth and returns blessed and multiplied. But the gift or tithe must be given with love and cheerfulness, for "God loveth a cheerful giver." (2 Corinthians 9:7) Bills should be paid cheerfully; all money should be sent forth fearlessly and with a blessing.


Your Spoken Word Opens Vast Reservoirs of Wealth

This attitude of mind makes man master of money. It is his to obey, and his spoken word then opens vast reservoirs of wealth.
