"subconscious mind is always listening and recording what you think, feel, and say..." Pay close attention to what you say, especially if you are making an emotionally charged statement. Emotion is a catalyst. Every time we make a forceful statement, a categorical pronouncement, fused with a strong feeling, we are actually praying for that which we are stating, and are thus creating our future experience. It is a sobering thought, isn’t it, and it is also a fact. Everyone can recall an instance or two of a self-fulfilled prophesy. Whatever we believe to be true deep in our heart, we unknowingly pray for. We don’t even have to verbalize it. Our subconscious mind does the praying for us, in accordance with the guidelines we ourselves put in there or unwittingly consented to during an unguarded moment. Do we even know how many unguarded moments we are guilty of? Your subconscious mind is always listening and recording what you think, feel, and say. Be very careful when you talk about health issues in general, your health in particular, and about other people’s health problems. Never make categorical statements like “so and so has an incurable disease.” Because if you do, not only are you not helping that person, you can actually make the condition worse. It is a reverse of a prayer for healing. And if you sincerely believe that there is a possibility of an incurable disease for somebody else, you are playing with fire—for what we believe to be true of others, we also believe to be true of ourselves. Not in the conscious phase of our mind, but where it really matters—in the subconscious mind. And that which we believe to be true of ourselves must sooner or later manifest in our physical reality. Do not acknowledge disease. Do not say that so and so has leukemia. Instead, say that he or she has a temporary condition referred to as “leukemia”. Do not contribute to the momentum that the condition already has. Do not give the condition a definite and final name either, for if you do, you will be using the power of your voice, thought and feeling to affirm the disease. Besides, the condition may have been misdiagnosed, and you would be sending out a confusing message and affirmation. Always affirm the presence of God in an area that is temporarily out of balance. With deep concentration and devotion affirm that the healing has already taken place by the Grace of God. “Thank you, Lord, for your healing presence.” source: © 2003 by S&T Publishing |
