  1. Want to live “unstuck”? SHIFT YOUR SYSTEM!

  2. Our brains are always looking for patterns…

  3. In 2008, Michael Shermer coined the word "patternicity", defining it as "the tendency to find meaningful patterns in meaningless noise”.

  4. SOMETIMES WE GET STUCK SEEING PATTERNS THAT AREN’T: (1) HELPFUL OR, (2) TRUE! We REALLY start to change (GET UNSTUCK) when we let the Holy Spirit mess with our “patternicity,” showing us HIS NEW PATTERNS! HE WANTS ACCESS TO YOUR INNER SEEING!

  5. Jackie Chan says: LIFE IS COMPLEX!

  6. Alternate answer to, “How are you?” “It’s complicated!”…or, “I’m functioning in a complex dynamical system which is generating Kingdom realities right in the midst of a few stunning events of earthly opposition.”

  7. COMPLEX LIFE CALLS FOR SYSTEMS THINKING!

  8. It’s no longer just about the data…it’s about the relationships the data reveal…

  9. HUGE SPIRITUAL LIFE SKILL: UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SYSTEMS AND EVENTS

  10. You are in a SYSTEM of health experiencing EVENTS of sickness. You are in a SYSTEM of acceptance experiencing EVENTS of rejection. You are in a SYSTEM of provision experiencing EVENTS of temporary lack. You are in a SYSTEM of faith experiencing EVENTS of doubt. You are in a SYSTEM of heaven experiencing EVENTS of earth.

  11. Romans 8:28 is the perfect picture of God’s system thinking: And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to his purpose. **KNOW = eido—a seeing word!!!! “to mentally see”! **WORK TOGETHER—sunergos—Joined energies! **GOOD—Luke 18:19 Only GOD is good! Good is HIM!

  12. A system is NOT defined by a series of events, but rather by unseen RELATIONSHIPS! Some events are “artifacts”; Some are educational; Some are even evidence of progress! examples: *Itching in wound healing; *lowered cash on hand because of investing! *even negative emotions can be viewed as part of a system for good

  13. Amplified (Classic) translation of “wisdom”: Comprehensive insight into the ways and purposes of God! Sounds like UNDERSTANDING SYSTEMS, rather than living from EVENT TO EVENT! Moses—who had realized he couldn’t process all the EVENT DATA of being made the leader of a nation, prayed: “TEACH ME YOUR WAYS”AND THEN “SHOW ME YOUR GLORY” (Exodus 33)!

  14. The pixels form a picture according to the Promise.

  15. Romans 14:17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. The system of the flesh is: try harder, check the boxes The system of the Spirit is: enter in to Him You have entered a whole new SPRIT-SYSTEM where all things are possible!

  16. Romans 8:8-9 Those controlled by the flesh cannot please God. You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ.

  17. So, Perrianne, you have told me I need to become a SPIRITUAL SYSTEMS THINKER, but you haven’t told me how to get there? HOW DO I SHIFT? THE ANSWER IS IN ONE WORD: OBSERVE! (BUT YOU ONLY THINK YOU KNOW WHAT THAT WORD MEANS! )

  18. THE OBSERVER EFFECT: Light and subatomic particles act like ENERGY until OBSERVED—then they act like MATTER!

  19. “QUANTUM WOO”

  20. QUANTUM WOO – new age--no reality QUANTUM GOO – some defensive scientists: “No one who is not a physicist should try to interpret quantum mechanics—it says nothing about life in general.” QUANTUM TRUE – Romans 1:20!

  21. Romans 1:20: All that He created tells us about His power and divine nature! Divine nature = theiotes--deity manifested, i.e. the revelation of God (His attributes), revealed for people to know (used only in this Scripture). IT’S A MODEL, NOT METAPHYSICS….BUT WHAT A MODEL! He generously expressed Himself!

  22. Physicist Heinz Pagels: “The visible world is the invisible organization of energy.” Perrianne: “The visible world is the invisible organization of energy—ruled, opened and dynamically administrated by the heart of a generous KING!”

  23. Sound words from one of the “fathers” of quantum physics: Niels Bohr: “It is not us who put reality in order, it is reality which puts us in order.”

  24. Mark 9:23 Jesus said to him, If you can believe, all things are possible to him that believes. IF YOU CAN SEE IT IN THE SPIRIT (SEE FROM THE WORD OF GOD THAT JESUS PURCHASED IT AT THE CROSS), THEN YOU CAN OBSERVE IT (HONOR IT AND GIVE IT PLACE IN YOUR LIFE AND CONSCIOUSNESS!

  25. When Jesus said, “all things are possible,” He said it (as He lived His earthly life) from a view of an “UNMANIFEST REALITY”! Could He be saying, “THERE ARE A BROAD SPECTRUM OF KINGDOM POSSIBILITIES JUST OUTSIDE THE REACH OF YOUR SENSES. THEY ARE WAITING TO BE ACCESSED BY YOUR SPIRITUAL INTERACTION WITH THEM!”

  26. OBSERVE: NOTICE OR PERCEIVE SOMETHING AND REGISTER IT AS SIGNIFICANT! To a scientist, this definition is extended to anything that can be recorded by a piece of equipment. When quantum physicists describe ‘observing’ what they actually mean is that a measurement was taken. It doesn’t imply that they were watching the experiment progress or even present at all while it was conducted.

  27. In the Old Testament, God tells the children of Israel to OBSERVE the feasts (Passover, Unleavened Bread, Tabernacles, Pentecost, etc.) as well as instructing them to OBSERVE the Sabbath. The meaning there is to “see the implication of an unseen thing and pause to wrap your earthly life around it in some way”! That didn’t just mean to merely notice it! It had a connotation of honor and action—AND CELEBRATION!

  28. What if the Redemptive Names of God (ways He introduced Himself in the Old Testament) were Him saying, “Observe Me as these things…”?

  29. To OBSERVE another SYSTEM, you simply need to be willing (like Moses) to “turn aside and see”! Interact with UNMANIFEST REALITY!

  30. Shift your SYSTEM (despair to hope; dysfunction to wholeness) by OBSERVING the SPIRITUAL REALITIES ALREADY PREPARED FOR YOU by the work of Christ (we call it the Kingdom)! Interact with them—see THEM, speak THEM, think about THEM—even though you can’t yet touch them in the natural! You will “pull” them through the gate of manifestation by interacting with them when they are as yet “unmanifest”!

  31. Can’t do that? Don’t want to be quantum woo? Hey, you probably already did it this morning. Did you WORSHIP???? OBSERVING is a Heart Action, but it BEGINS with an intention! You can do it! You can manifest a TRUE REALITY with no “woo” or “goo”! YOU CAN SHIFT YOUR SYSTEM! (The secret is: HE ALREADY HAS—now just agree with that!)
