The Basic Requirement

You must think of any disease as a temporary condition. You must believe that any condition can be alleviated and completely cured. That is a basic requirement. God can do for us only that which He can do through us, that is through our multi-layered subconscious mind. He gave us the freedom to choose what to believe in. When we pray from a mental pattern of fear and disbelief, we limit drastically the power of God that we are trying to invoke. In fact, we can completely intercept and distort the power. If you desire a healing, you must first cleanse your heart and mind of all fear and doubt, or at least suspend them temporarily in deep meditation. And then you should approach God in prayer as a trusting child.

Pray for Guidance

Always ask God to guide you to do your part in your own healing: To make the necessary adjustments in your way of life or your diet, to see the right doctor. Affirm the presence of God before, during, and after a treatment, a procedure, a surgery. Thank God for using that particular person to be His instrument of healing, that particular piece of equipment, the type of treatment, the drug. Remain attuned to the only real Healer throughout your experience. You’ll be glad you did.
