BE CAREFUL HOW YOU ACCEPT SUGGESTIONS
A suggestion is an idea or plan put forward for consideration
Genesis 3:1 (KJV) Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
A suggestion has no power in and of itself except if you accept it mentally.
You must make certain to give your subconscious only suggestions, which heal, bless, elevate, and inspire you in all your ways.
Remember that your subconscious mind cannot take a joke. It takes you at your word.
2 Samuel 13:1-2 (KJV) And it came to pass after this, that Absalom the son of David had a fair sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.
And Amnon was so vexed, that he fell sick for his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and Amnon thought it hard for him to do any thing to her.
Who visited Amnon?
The spirit of lust
What did he suggest?
Your sister is beautiful, but you can still have her. After all, Abraham married his sister
