Revise the Past: Jairus' Daughter and Sarah's Rejuvenation Are Parallel Accounts
I have written about this before: http://imagicworldview.blogspot.com/2016/03/abrahams-sarah-and-jairus-daughter-are.html
This is based on Neville Goddard's lecture, "The Pruning Shears of Revision": http://realneville.com/txt/the_pruning_shears_of_revision.htm
Revision is a prayer technique in which one changes his or her memory of experiences. Mentally changing recollection of effects brings about change in their causes. That sounds weird and illogical, but the point is that it works, and if it works, you have found God.
To the point: when you are imagining for causation, revise your past, not your future. Case at point: I remembered a friend from my childhood. Never dated, just a good friend, but it occured to me that if I had not been a complete idiot at that age she could have been a girlfriend, even my wife. If I had not been a complete idiot at that time.
Remembering that past potential, my marriage immediately just about came undone. Maybe you have been there. Knowing what was going on, that my imaginings were pushing manifestation that direction, I revised my imaginings to what my relationship with my wife could have been at that age. Whoa! Talk about the spark that kindles the flame! A complete flip in my relationship. Oh, a principle: revise the past.
You want something that you do not have, but you want it now. Which means that you would have gotten it in the past. Faith says that you have received it . . . in the past. You do not imagine that you are going to get it; you imagine that you have GOTTEN it. At the end of the day you wish you had received a certain letter. You do not revision tomorrow receiving the letter; you revision the PAST of earlier today having RECEIVED it. You do not plan; you reminisce. You enter reverie.
For example: Neville Goddard explained that Esau is the flesh and Jacob the spirit, the "inner man." These are to us allegories, as are Abraham, Sarah, and Hagar. Sarah the spirit, and Hagar the flesh. Sarah as Abraham's spiritual potential isn't bearing any fruit. Effort in the flesh just messes things up. Enter God: "I will return Sarah to youthful fruitfulness." Note that Sarai, princely, becomes Sarah, princess. There is a difference.
Here is what we all have been missing: Sarah's time with Abimelech is a revision of her earlier time with Pharaoh. It is a revision of the past, and Sarah--the Promise bearer--is restored to bear the Promise. Whoa! How did we miss that one?
Probably the same way we all miss Jairus' calling Jesus to restore his daughter being a revision of the woman with the issue of blood! The woman is Jairus' spiritual potential that is barren, and if she can but touch the hem of His garment she will be restored to youthful fruitfulness. How does she touch? In the Temple, the mind, you approach God with a revision of the past youth as you desire it to have been: you got AND HAVE the letter, you heard so-and-so say that they GOT what they wanted . . . whatever. In the past. You revise THE PAST.
Something else written in the past:

My favorite example of healing the past is the woman with the bad back on the nineteenth page of The Law and the Promise. She had jumped from a swing as a child and landed badly, injuring her back. Learning of this principle of revising the past, she imagined herself as a child on the swing again. It took marked effort, but eventually she could feel the breeze in her hair and the sensation of swinging . . . and she jumped, landing perfectly. "Mommy! Mommy! Watch what I can do! Watch mommy!" Over and over she swang and sailed through the air, landing perfectly every time. And in reverie she fell asleep. Darned if those aches and pains she had suffered with for all those years didn't just go away. Her (and God's) conception of her back was changed, and as promised, Jesus came soon with healing in his wings.
An odd thought that, that our hope is in the past . . . revisioned. There's gotta be a post in that. Maybe about how creation was initially imagined perfect in Genesis chapter one. Can we imagine that?
