A Key Concept of the LOA (Law of Attraction), discussed in the book “The
Vision of HabakkuK. The Law of Attraction in the Holy Bible” is the requirement
of every human being to have a vision for his or her own life. Having a vision
for one’s life is the same as saying ‘having a purpose for one’s life’. It does
not matter much if your purpose or vision of your self and your life is small or
big. What matters is that you know what is your purpose and for what reason
you get out of bed in the morning. For one thing, a person who sleeps late does
so because of missing the excitement of a compelling reason to get out of bed.

Imagine the president of the U.S. – sleeping late every morning. LOL.

No way. He has so many problems to crack and many big visionary plans to
implement. The main reason he was elected to office was his BIG VISION for the
nation.

Do you think that the queen of daytime talk shows sleeps late every
morning, waiting for the other girls on “the view” to start airing their show?

No. She has her big show production plans for herself. She sees her projects in
her mind’s eye before she goes to bed to sleep. (That is, if she ever gets some
sleep…). The director/producer of Titanic and Avatar is always inspired by a
BIG VISION before he makes epic movies. LOA stands also for the Law of
Abundance. The film producer knows the principle: Law of Attraction = Law of
Abundance. His films allegedly grossed over $8 billion worldwide.

Caution: If you have no vision for yourself, you may die early at a young age.
As the wise man of Proverbs said: “Where there is no vision people perish”.
(Proverbs 29:18).

The mystical teacher, HabakkuK taught us how to get inspired and have a new
vision for ourselves. His advice: Go on a high mountain or climb to the top of a
tower and watch the scenery around you. Look around. Before you know it, you
will get inspired and your mind will be flooded with high-flying ideas. You will
want to sing for no reason. You will pull out your cell phone and call you best
friend or Mom to share with them your excitement triggered by the magnificent view. Wow. (It’s the view again, stupid…).

Do as HabakkuK instructed: “I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the
tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer.”
(HabakkuK 2:1).

You cannot return down to solid ground from the sky deck of the Sears Tower
(oops, Willis Tower), in Chicago or from the St Louis Gateway Arch without
absorbing an astounding view and experiencing an inspiring vision. Once a vision
has sparked in you mind, it will live inside you for the rest of your life. If it is a
compelling vision, it will nag you to act on it. The vision will get closer to you
before you know it.

What is your vision? Now share with us if you wish what you think.

In this post, we continue to explore Habakkuk’s practice of the Law of Attraction.

HabakkuK was a mystic and a master of meditation and contemplation. When a
new idea hit him, he took first action – he put his idea in writing. He used clay
tablets to write on:”Write the vision and make it plain upon tables, that he may run
that readeth it.” (Haba. 2:2).

Put your ideas in writing initially, because ideas are like slippery eels. Ideas
smoothly slither from the hand through the fingers and slip and fall back into the
pond. Ideas sink in the pond of the unconscious and disappear. The only way to
hold a firm grip on an idea is to write it down!

The second important reason to write down an idea, intent or a wish is to give it
lasting firmness in your mind.

A written intent or wish is etched in the mind of the writer after the psychological
mechanisms of the mind are set in motion to seek out opportunities to manifest
and materialize it. This hunting process is controlled day and night by the brain’s
reticular activating system. Writing requires active motor participation of the
nerves, tendons and muscles of the hand. The activity of writing creates a state of
permanence in the mind because it involves the neuro-motor system in addition
to pure thinking. The intention or wish are now outside the brain and extend into
the hands. (Just like playing golf). The Law of Attraction is now transformed into
motored action – real movement. At the end, the intent or wish manifests. It
manifests. It has no choice but to manifest for you.

Writing is the first phase of manifestation after thinking, as HabakkuK tells us.
However, the written words must be plain and clear to read and understand. The
contents must also be plain and clear – easy to read from the written medium (clay
tablets, parchment, paper or the i-pad). How easy should it be to read? As easy
and quick as a runner can dash.

To sum it up: in the first phase, you are inspired by idea, intent, or a wish. In the
second phase, you write it down in a journal or notebook.

An in-depth explanation on importance of writing an intent or wish is found in

the book “The Vision of HabakkuK. The Law of Attraction in the Holy Bible”.

Next, try wish-list writing.

This is when the first outer action is ignited to bring about the desired
manifestation. Take a spiral notebook or a journal. Sit in a quiet place, and start
writing down your wish list. Write down all your wildest and unrealistic wishes
that cross your mind. Do not let up before you invested an hour on it. Have at
least forty wishes or more on your list. Wait two or three days and try wish-
listing again. Before you know it, you will find that all day long and in your sleep,
unexpected opportunities will come your way to answer your wishes and meet
your expectations.

Be open to those opportunities. Act on them. Some may seem odd. So what?
Either you want what you asked for or you are afraid of what is manifesting at your
request. If you feel unprepared for receiving what you asked for, then wait. Other
and better opportunities will appear.

Solomon the shrewd author of Proverbs wrote: “For surely there is an end; and
thine expectation shall not be cut off.” (Prov. 23:18). This means that your
expectation cannot be cut off. It must come to fruition.

Expect positive results – be a winner.

Now, you are invited to share with us your thoughts.

In the previous Blog, I told you about my serendipitous occurrence the small tip I received
that got me sold on the Law of Attraction (LOA). Among other things, I gave you a hint:
expect serendipitous events in your life at anytime all the time. Ill explain the serendipity
phenomenon in depth in a future Blog. If you wish, you can research the topic yourself. Either
way, you can make serendipity an integral part of your daily life.

Today, my Blog is about my friend and teacher the biblical mystic prophet – HabakkuK.

I met HabakkuK during my study of the LOA. While I was studying, a thought occurred to me.
If the LOA is as pervasive in our lives as I believed it to be, then it must have been recognized
during biblical times. Hence, we should be able to find clues to it in the Holy Bible. The wise
authors and editors had – to note this phenomenon at their era starting some 28 centuries ago.

Studying the Holy Bible is of interest to me. I own different editions of the Bible. I consider the
Bible to be a repository of human experiences and human wisdom (as well as human foibles).
I embarked on a systematic search of the Key Concepts of the LOA in Bible. Not surprising, I
found many leads to the LOA and its Key Concepts. Most are fragmentary. Some express the
LOA as it is defined: As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. (Proverbs 23:7).

It was just a matter of time before I ran into the book of HabakkuK. To my surprise, this little
known minor prophet has in his small book a prescription for the best practice of the Law of
Attraction that is functional, practical, and valid today as it was first written, around 609-598 BC.
Go read it: Habakkuk 2:1-4. Note: these four biblical verses are best understood with the help
of some commentary.

I was excited. I collated my findings and notes to that date and wrote a book, which I
titled: The Vision of HabakkuK. The book is in the printing process and published by
Intermedia Publishing Group, Phoenix AZ. As my insights evolved, I was led to write an
expanded volume.

The LOA today remains as it was in biblical times. It is universal, non-discriminating and hasnt
changed since human beings acquired their capacity to think. It is every persons individual
decision to accept and live in alignment with the LOA or to ignore the idea. No matter what
the personal attitude is – the LOA remains in effect. No person can be convinced or forced
into incorporating the Key Concepts of the LOA into ones life. This is a matter of personal
conviction.
