Praying on or “treating” a problem or difficulty is simple, but
not easy. First, get quiet, do not try to control your thoughts, anyone
who says they control the random thoughts that float up into our
consciousness is selling a book or seminar. We do not control thoughts,
what we do control is our response/action when the thought surfaces in
our consciousness.
We do this by turning our
attention to God, contemplating on what we know about His Love, His
Guidance, and our connection to Him as Father to child. Do not under
any pretext think about the issue you are treating, praying about at
this time. Read a short passage from any spiritual tome that appeals to
you and then take a few moments in contemplative meditation to consider
what was just read. The purpose of this is to center our thoughts in
God, to place our attention there, to raise our consciousness. Now take
two or three breaths, breathing in deeply through the nose, exhaling
through the mouth. Now claim quietly that which you need or the
situation/condition requiring healing. Of paramount importance is to
always ask in the affirmative. If we ask thusly: “I need” money, health,
peace, serenity etc what we will demonstrate is more need. We will be
affirming need, not abundance. If money or resources are lacking ask
that your life be a demonstration of abundance. If it is employment, ask
to be of service to God and your fellows, for the perfect position for
your unique set of abilities. Health, in general, ask to demonstrate a
healed and vital radiance, for a specific ill or condition ask for a
healing, visualizing the body free of the condition. If the
demonstration is to assist another, frame your words carefully so that
only positive and affirming actions are employed. Remember, words have
power. As you are making your demonstration see it from the end, as an
accomplished fact and thank God for accomplishing it. Under no
condition discuss the treatment with anyone; it is between God and you
alone. When you find yourself drifting back into thinking about the
difficulty, and we all do, stop as soon as you become aware and give it
back to God with thanks, for prayers of thanksgiving are the most
powerful of all.
