Guest guest Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 Chrism, I'd be curious about your thoughts on this.. I spent the weekend with my uncle Dave, a charismatic Christian, the leader of several churches, and with powerful healing gifts. We were chatting about prayer, and how come so many prayers seem be unanswered, for Christ says in Mark 11:24 " Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them. " Dave said that all his prayers are answered, and are often answered quickly. He said that when you pray your heart must be in it. You must say your prayers aloud and say them confidently. And once you have said the prayer, never say anything that doubts or contradicts it as this will break the power of the prayer. So, for example, if you pray for healing, then it must be your will. You must say, 'Father, I desire healing. Let me be healed' and not 'If its your will, then let me be healed'. Once you have said it, never say something like 'I am still sick' or 'I wonder if the prayer worked'. Dont cast any doubt. Say something like 'Thank you God for receiving my prayer and I know you have acted on it " And be careful who you tell. If others say negative things about your desires their prayers can influence yours. He said the battlefield is in your mind. There you must turn all thoughts towards success of what you want, and when you speak, everything you say must affirm what you want. You can use this for anything you desire which you want to bring into your life. Even though you may not see the results you want in your life, the prayer is first answered in the spiritual realm before its bought into manifestation. Negating the unseen result with doubt or the opposite will block it coming in.. Love Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 Sounds like he is aware of what has recently been dubbed the Law of Attraction. Makes sense in a lot of ways. See it as if it's already come true and be thankful for it. It makes sense, Bruce. I can't vouch for it personally but one day I'll try it.
