Speaker 1 (00:00):
Close your eyes for a moment, and dare to believe,
dare to know that what you want is already yours,
not tomorrow, not next month, but now, in the unseen
realm of spirit, it is complete. You are not creating
something from nothing. You are stepping into what already exists,
waiting to be claimed by your consciousness. You are not

(00:21):
a beggar in this world. You are the operant power,
and the only thing that separates you from your desire
is the illusion of separation. The moment you imagined it
with feeling, the seed was planted, and just like the
seed beneath the soil, you do not dig it up
every morning to check if it's growing. You water it
with faith, You nourish it with imagination, and you act

(00:43):
as if the harvest is inevitable. This is how the
universe works. It does not operate on panic. It is
not bow to your doubt. It moves only in response
to your inner certainty. Your job is not to wonder how.
Your task is not to micromanage the timing. The universe
does need your control. It needs your surrender, your trust,

(01:08):
your unwavering belief that what you ask for has already
been granted so warp like it's done, Speak like it's done.
Feel the relief of already having it, And every time
doubt creeps in, don't bet. Return to the end, see
yourself already living the result. Let that vision become more

(01:31):
real than the facts before your eyes. Because here's the truth.
The outer world always yields to the inner world. There
is nothing to chase, nothing to force. The minute you
align with the frequency of the wish fulfill you become
magnetic to it. It finds you not because you fought
for it, but because you believed in its arrival. And

(01:54):
when it delays, remember this delay is not denial. It
is divine timing at work. It is perfection being stitched
behind the curtain of time. You do not rush a masterpiece.
You trust it so to day. Stop checking the clock,
start feeling the truth. Live from the end, and the

(02:15):
end will meet you. Act as if it's coming, because
in truth, it already has. Close your eyes for a moment,
and dare to believe, dare to know that what you
want is already yours, not tomorrow, not next month, but now,
in the unseen realm of spirit, it is complete. You
are not creating something from nothing. You are stepping into

(02:36):
what already exists, waiting to be claimed by your consciousness.
You see, you are not a beggar in this world.
You are the operant power, and the only thing that
separates you from your desire is the illusion of separation.
The moment you imagined it with feeling, the seed was planted,
and just like the seed beneath the soil, you do

(02:56):
not dig it up every morning to check if it's growing.
You walk it with faith, You nourish it with imagination,
and you act as if the harvest is inevitable. This
is how the universe works. It does not operate on panic.
It does not bow to your doubt. It moves only

(03:17):
in response to your inner certainty. Your job is not
to wonder how. Your task is not to micromanage the timing.
The universe doesn't need your control. It needs your surrender,
your trust, your unwavering belief that what you ask for
has already been granted. So walk like it's done, Speak
like it's done, feel the relief of already having it,

(03:40):
And every time doubt creeps in, don't beg return to
the end. See yourself already living the result. Let that
vision become more real. Than the facts before your eyes.
Because here's the truth. The outer world always yields to

(04:01):
the inner world. There is nothing to chase, nothing to force.
The minute you align with the frequency of the wish fulfilled,
you become magnetic to it. It finds you not because
you fought for it, but because you believed in its arrival.

(04:22):
And when it delays, remember this delay is not denial.
It is divine timing at work. It is perfection being
stitched behind the curtain of time. And you do not
rush a masterpiece. You trust it. So today, stop checking
the clock, start feeling the truth. Live from the end,

(04:46):
and the end will meet you. Act as if it's coming,
because in truth, it already has. Imagination is not mere fantasy.
It is the hidden workshop of creation, the sacred chamber
where the invisible becomes visible. Every structure you see, every

(05:06):
life you admire, every reality you call success, first existed
in imagination. It is not something to be taken lightly
or used passively. It is power, the very substance of
the unseen, shaping itself into form through the one who
dares to believe. You are not born to observe reality

(05:27):
and accept it as fixed. You were born to reshape
it to walk by inner vision, not by the five
senses alone. The moment you accept the truth that imagination
precedes manifestation, your life begins to shift from reaction to creation.
You are no longer at the mercy of circumstances. You

(05:47):
become the cause of them. But this transformation requires conviction.
You must imagine with feeling, not as a day dreamer,
but as one who knows the unseen is more real
than the scene. When you hold an image in your
mind consistently and clothed in emotion, when you inhabit that
state is your truth. It begins to form the blueprint

(06:09):
of your outer life. Thought alone is not enough. It
must feel natural, alive, inevitable. Understand this, Life is not
waiting to give you what you want. Life is echoing
back to you what you believe to be true. If
you persist in the assumption that you are abundant, loved, powerful,
then life has no choice but to mirror that back

(06:31):
to you, not because of luck or effort, but because
law demands it. What is impressed upon the imagination, with conviction,
must express itself in the outer world. There is no
gap between you and your desire except your own disbelief.
The universe isn't withholding anything from you. It is responding

(06:52):
to your inner state. So if you desire change, do
not look outside of yourself or within. Change the movie
playing in the theater of your mind. And when you do,
do it with such clarity and feeling that it becomes
more real to you than the present moment. This is
not delusion. This is creation. It is knowing the truth

(07:14):
before it becomes visible. It is walking in faith, not sight.
It is recognizing that your inner world is the cause
and your outer world is only the effect. The mistake
so many make is waiting for evidence before they believe,
but the evidence only appears after the belief. That is

(07:37):
the great reversal you must embrace. Don't wait on the
money to feel wealthy. Don't wait on the love to
feel chosen, don't wait on the opportunity to feel successful.
Feel it now, live from it. Now, act from the end,
and the end will rush forward to meet you. Every

(07:57):
time you imagine something with convict, you plant a seed,
and just like a seed buried in soil, it does
not sprout immediately. It moves quietly, secretly under the surface
of awareness, but its growth is certain as long as
you don't dig it up with doubt, you must persist

(08:18):
in the assumption that it is done, that it is yours,
that it is finished. Life bends to the one who
believes more in imagination than in appearances. Appearances are fleeting.
Imagination is eternal. It holds the pattern, It holds the promise,
It holds the power. So do not take it lightly.

(08:39):
What you imagine to day you will live to morrow.
What you accept in consciousness now you will walk in later.
Use this gift boldly, use it wisely. Let imagination become
your place of dwelling, your home, your refuge. Because the
world you see will always reflect the world you've chosen
to believe it. And once you know this, once you

(09:02):
truly know it, not as theory but as experience, your
life will never be the same. Desire is not something
to be dismissed or doubted. It is not a weakness
or a fleeting wish. It is sacred. It is purposeful.
The moment a true desire rises within your heart, it
is not borne from chance or accident. It is evidence

(09:24):
evidence that the life you long for already exists in
the unseen. It is the signal the announcement, the whisper
from the universe that what you seek is already yours.
You are not being teased with what you cannot have.
You are being guided toward what is already promised. You
must come to see desire not as something you need
to chase, but something you need to recognize. It is

(09:47):
not the beginning of lack. It is the beginning of fulfillment.
If you desire love, it is because love is yours.
If you desire freedom, it is because freedom is within you.
If you desire more, is because more is already seeking you.
The universe does not play games. It doesn't plant desires

(10:10):
only to torment you. It places them like divine seeds,
in the soil of your soul, waiting for you to
claim them, not with your hands, but with your imagination.
When you treat desire as sacred, you stop doubting its message,
You stop delaying its arrival. With this belief, you begin

(10:30):
to understand that you would not want it if you
weren't meant to have it. You would not feel the
pull unless the path was already prepared. The desire is
not the absence of what you seek, It is the
arrival of its blueprint. In your awareness. From there, you
do not have to earn it, beg for it, or

(10:51):
chase it. You simply have to accept it, claim it,
know it. And how do you claim a desire Not
by shouting it out to the world, not by trying
to force its arrival, but by embodying the state of
having it now, by knowing inwardly, quietly, with full conviction,
that it is already done. This is where the true

(11:12):
shift happens, not in the outer world, but in the
inner world. The moment you accept the desire is fulfilled within,
the universe begins its work to reflect it without The
real work is not to hustle or struggle for your desire.
The work is to remove resistance, to let go of
the idea that it is far away, to abandon the

(11:33):
belief that you are unworthy or not ready. Your readiness
is shown in your desire. That's the sign, that's the mark,
that's the divine permission slip that says, yes, this is
your path, now walk it. Every desire is a conversation
between your soul and the source of all things. It
is communication, it is confirmation, and once you understand this,

(11:57):
you treat your desires with reverence, not resistance. You start
to feel a deep peace even before the manifestation appears,
because you no longer ask if it's coming, you know
it already has. You stop looking for proof, you become
the proof. So the next time a deep longing rises

(12:19):
in you don't shrink from it, don't question it, don't
push it away, welcome it, thank it, and most of all,
claim it. Because the moment it entered your awareness, it
wasn't a request. It was a revelation, a sacred echo
of a reality already made waiting for your faith to
open the door. And once you accept it with your

(12:40):
whole being, the world must rearrage itself to match your knowing.
Now that is the divine promise, and the universe never
breaks its word. To assume the feeling of the wish
fulfilled is to step beyond the boundaries of logic and
into the realm of creation. It is not mere pretending.
It is embodying a higher truth, a truth that says

(13:03):
what you desire already exists, not in some distant future,
but here now, within the unseen. You are not waiting
for it to happen. You are aligning yourself with the
state in which it already had. Living in the end
means you no longer think like the version of yourself
who lacks it. You think like the version who has
received it. You no longer speak from wanting, but from having.

(13:27):
You do not ask will it come? Instead, you declare,
it is already mine. This shift in consciousness is the
bridge between the scene and the unseen. It is the
only journey you must take from doubt to knowing, from
lack to fulfillment, from wishing. Most people approach their desires

(13:50):
from the outside. They try to change the world around
them to match what they want inside, but the truth
is reversed. The outer world only reflects your inner world.
So the fastest way to bring about what you desire
is to dwell in the emotional and mental state of
its completion. This means thinking from the end, not of
the end, not hoping, not longing, but walking in the

(14:17):
full awareness that it is done. This is not imagination
for entertainment, This imagination for transformation. When you assume the
feeling of the wish fulfilled, you are giving the universe instructions.
You are setting the coordinates for your destination. You are saying,
this is who I am now, and the world begins

(14:40):
to mirror that identity. Feelings are the key, not words,
not effort. Feelings because your emotional state is what impresses
the subconscious, and it is the subconscious that controls the
conditions of your life. So if you desire abundance, you
must feel abundant now. If you desire love, you must
feel love now. If you desire to excess, you must

(15:01):
walk with the confidence of one who already has it.
And if it feels unnatural at first, that's all right.
Persist in it. Just as a seed takes time to sprout,
so too will your new state take root. Do not
wait for permission from the outside world. It will not come.

(15:22):
The world does not give you permission to change. It
only reflects the change once you've made it. So close
your eyes, enter that sacred space within, and ask yourself,
how would I feel if it were already true? Then
feel it. Let it saturate your thoughts and guide your actions.

(15:45):
Let it become your resting place. When you live in
the end, you are no longer desperate or needy. You
are calm, centered, peaceful because you know you've already received
it in the invisible realm, and the visible must follow.
The how, and when no longer concern you, your only

(16:08):
job is to remain faithful to the state of the
wish fulfilled. This is a secret path to alignment. Not pushing,
not striving, but being, being the version of yourself who
already has it, who already is it. And when you
do this consistently, life reorganizes around you. People show up,

(16:30):
circumstances shift, doors open, not because you forced them to,
but because you assumed your rightful place, and the universe
had no choice but to respond. So let go of
the old identity, release the story of black, and put
on the new self, the self that knows it is done.
Think from it, speak from it, feel from it, and

(16:53):
most of all, trust it, because when you live in
the end, the end will live through you. Delay is
not denial. It is not a rejection, not a cancelation,
not a closed door. It is simply a pause in appearance,
not a pause in creation. When you understand the nature
of reality, you realize that the moment you imagine and

(17:16):
believe in something sincerely, it begins, even if your physical
eyes do not yet see it. The roots are growing
beneath the surface. The foundation is forming in the unseen,
The delay is only a sign that invisible forces are
aligning to bring your desire into perfect expression. But here
is where many falter. They look at the clock, They

(17:39):
stare at the calendar. They count the days, the months,
and sometimes the years, and they let the appearance of
time whisper lies. It's not coming. Maybe it's not for you.
You are foolish to believe. But time is not truth.
Time is merely the space in which the uns becomes seen.

(18:02):
It is not your enemy. It is the womb in
which your desire is growing. You must learn to trust
that once a thing is spoken in faith, once it
is felt, accepted, and lived inwardly, it is received, not
will be it is, but it must appear in its
own appointed time. Neither should you disturb your faith with fear, doubt,

(18:22):
or questions. Your role is not to manage the timing,
but to remain faithful to the vision. Delay is the
Universe's way of arranging everything perfectly for you, for others involved,
and for the greater unfolding. There is no lost manifestation,
nor mismiracle. Nothing you've imagined in truth is ever forgotten.

(18:44):
The universe does not lose track of your order. It
hears your prayer, It feels your faith, and it sets
things in motion even when you see nothing moving. Do
not confuse silence for stillness. Do not confuse the waiting
period with a bandit. You are not being ignored, You

(19:04):
are being positioned. It is easy to believe when signs
are everywhere, but the true test of belief is in
the silence, the still moments, the times when the world
looks unchanged. That is when your inner knowing must rise.
That is when you must say, though I see nothing,

(19:24):
I know it is done. That is when the seed
of your desire either grows or withers, based not on
the outer world, but on your inner conviction. You are
being asked to hold the vibration of fulfillment longer than
the world has shown it. You are being stretched in faith,
refined in patience. This is not punishment. This is preparation

(19:46):
for when it comes, and it will, you will not
just receive what you ask for. You will have become
the person who can sustain it. The delay is not
just about the arrival of the thing. It is about
your readiness to live in the fullness of it. So
do not grow weary, do not trade in your vision

(20:06):
for impatience. Let the delay be a reminder of how
powerful your desire is. So powerful it requires orchestration beyond
what you can see. Trust that what you ask for
is already in motion. Trust that even now, behind the
curtain of the physical, arrangements are being made, hearts are

(20:27):
being cleared. You don't need to know how, You don't
need to know when. You only need to know it
is done. And the more you can rest in that knowing,
the more you allow it to flow freely into your world.
Hold your faith when nothing appears to be happening. That's

(20:49):
the mark of one who understands the laws of creation.
Because delay is never denialed. Delay is simply the sacred
rhythm of divine timing. And when it arrives, you will
look back and understand it wasn't late, it was perfect.
Stop asking and start knowing. For every time you ask

(21:12):
from a place of black, you reinforce the idea that
what you desire is separate from you. You say with
your words and your emotions, it is not here yet,
and in doing so you bind yourself to that state
of absence. But there is a higher way, a way
that transcends asking, hoping, and waiting. It is the way

(21:33):
of knowing, knowing that what you desire is not something
to chase, but something to awaken within. To ask once
in faith is enough, but to keep asking again and
again from fear and doubt is to declare over and over,
I don't have it. The universe does not respond to

(21:54):
your words alone. It responds to your state of being.
And if your state is begging, it mirrors lack. If
your state is knowing, it mirrors fulfillment. There is a
great difference between the one who hopes and the one
who remember. Hope says maybe it will come, but knowing

(22:15):
says it is already done. When you ask, you are
often reaching outward, but when you know, you turn inward.
You move into the feeling space of already having, already being.
This is not make believe. This is creation. Everything begins
in consciousness. Nothing comes into form unless it is first

(22:38):
held in the unseen, known, and embodied. Knowing is the
frequency of manifestation because it is aligned with truth, the
truth that the moment you desire, you have been grant.
Desire is a divine signal. It is not a suggestion,
It is not a tease. It is not a possibility.

(23:00):
It is a promise, a memory from your higher self,
reminding you of what is already yours in the invisible.
And when you step into that remembrance, something shifts. You
no longer strive, you no longer seek. You sit, you rest,

(23:21):
You smile in quiet confidence because you are not waiting
on life. Life is catching up to your knowing. It
is not arrogance to claim something as yours before the
world can see it. It is faith. It is alignment.
It is saying to the universe, I trust the process,

(23:42):
I believe in the unseen. I accept that what I
have asked for is already on its way. And this
inner claim is what opens the gates, not the desperation
of repeated requests, but the calm assurance of belief. You
must stop treating your desire like a stranger and start

(24:04):
treating it like a memory. It is not outside of you.
It is a reflection of who you are becoming. Every
time you return to the state of the wish fulfilled,
when you think from it, feel from it, and act
from it, you are telling the universe I remember what
is mine, and this remembering is the magnet. It draws

(24:29):
the unseen into the scene. With precision and power. So
take your desire of the pedestal, bring it down, place
it in your heart. Hold it not as a wish,
but as a knowing. When the mind tries to question,
return to the feeling. When the world tries to contradict,
return to the inner vision. Your knowing must become louder
than your senses, more real than the circumstances. That is

(24:53):
the true power of creation. The ones who manifest effortlessly
are not the ones who ask the loudest. They are
the ones who feel the deepest, who walk in certainty
before anything changes, who do not need to convince the
world because they have already convinced themselves. You are not hoping,

(25:14):
You are remembering. You are remembering the truth that all
things are already yours, that the divine does not tease
it fulfills, that you are not here to chase what
is missing, but to call forth what already belongs to you.

(25:35):
So stop asking from a place of lack and start
knowing from a place of wholeness. That is the bridge
between desire and manifestation. Not effort but embodiment, not trying
but trusting, not pleading, but remembering, And in that remembering

(25:56):
all things are made new. Faith doesn't watch the clock.
It doesn't stare at the ticking hands of time, wondering
if the promise is running late. It doesn't count the
days or the minutes, measuring progress by what is seen.
Faith understands that time is not the master, It is
the servant. It bends and flows to the rhythm of

(26:16):
your inner conviction. Time may be necessary in the physical world,
but it is irrelevant in the world of spirit. In
the unseen, what you ask for is already complete, It
is done the moment you accept it as real within.
But the world will tempt you to doubt. It will
whisper that if it hasn't come yet, it may not
come at all, that maybe you misunderstood that, maybe you

(26:39):
should let go of the dream. But faith is not
moved by appearances. Faith doesn't need evidence. It is the evidence.
It lives in the unseen as if it is already seen.
It walks in the promise long before or the promise

(27:00):
becomes visible. You must stop looking at the clock and
judging your progress, Stop using time as a ruler to
measure your worthiness or your power. Just because it hasn't
shown up yet doesn't mean it isn't on the way.
The universe is not slow, It is precise, It is intelligent,
It is exact in its unfolding. Every second that passes

(27:22):
is part of a divine choreography, one that you cannot
see in full, but must trust with your whole being.
There is a natural gestation period for every desire. Just
as a seed takes time to become a tree, your
vision takes time to take shape. But that time is
not empty, it is not wasted. It is filled with rearrangement, alignment, preparation.

(27:43):
People are being moved, circumstances are being shifted, Resources are
being guided toward you. The path is being cleared behind
the scenes. And the only thing that can interrupt this
divine order is your disbelief. You do not speed things
up by worrying. You do not accept the outcome by
watching the clock. You bring delay only when you waver

(28:05):
in belief, when you step out of the end and
start questioning the middle. Your only task is to persist
in the assumption that it is done, to remain in
the feeling of the wish fulfilled, to keep your inner
world aligned with the result, even when nothing outside has changed.
This is the art of creation, not forcing, not begging

(28:25):
nor hurrying, but trusting, and that trust must become your
default state. You must learn to rest in the invisible,
to relax into the knowing that divine timing is never off.
It is never wrong, it is never late, It is
always perfect. Faith is not impatient, Faith is not anxious.

(28:46):
Faith is still. It is calm. It is rooted in
a deeper truth. It does not need a clock to
feel confident. It already knows that what is yours cannot
be lost, that what you've claimed in spirit must show
up in form. That the delay is never denial, it
is divine design. So take your eyes off the clock,

(29:08):
take your mind off the how, return to the feeling,
Return to the end, Keep your imagination alive with the
image of fulfillment. Speak and walk as one who already
possesses the desire, and let time serve you. Let it
be the invisible bridge between your belief and your blessing.

(29:29):
Time is not your obstacle, It is your ally. It
is the gentle space in which your desire takes root
and grows into form. Trust it, bless it, and most
of all, stop watching it. For when you truly believe,
you no longer ask when you simply say thank you,
and you live as if it's already done, because in

(29:51):
truth it is so. Now you see what you seek
is not far, not distant, not separate from you. It
is here within the moment you dare to imagine. You
set creation in motion. When you assume the feeling, you align.
When you persist in belief even when nothing outside confirms it,

(30:11):
you step into divine timing. You stop asking and start knowing.
You walk not by sight but by the inner conviction
that what is yours is already done. The universe is
not withholding, It is waiting, waiting for you to claim,
to remember, to relax into the truth. Your desires already

(30:32):
a promise. Faith is your bridge, Imagination is your key,
and time is simply the servant, not the master. So
act as if it's coming because it is. Trust in
the process, trust in the timing, trust in yourself. And
with that, thank you for listening, for believing, in for
