Prayer, unless in liason with the will and actions of the personal spiritual forces and material supervisors of a realm, can have No Direct Effect upon one's Physical Enviroment.While there is a very definite limit to the province of the petitions of prayer, such limits do not equally apply to the faith of those who Pray.
Prayer is not a technique for curing real or organic diseases, but it has contributed enormously to the enjoyment of abundunt health and to the cure of numerous mental, emotional, and nervous ailments.And even in actual bacterial disease, prayer has many times added to the efficacy of other remedial prochedures.Prayer has turned many a irratable and complaining invalid into a paragon of patience and made him an inspiration to all human sufferers.
No matter how hard it is to reconcile the scientific doubtings regarding the efficacy of prayer with the ever present urge to seek help and guidance from divine sources, never forget that sincere prayer of faith is a mighty force, for the promotion of personal happiness, individual self control, social harmony, moral progress, and spiritual attainment.
Prayer, even as a purely human practice, a dialogue with one's alter ego, consttutes a technique of the most efficient approach to the realization of those reserve powers of human nature which are stored up and conserved in the unconscious realms of the human mind. Prayer is a sound psychological practice, aside from its religous implications and spiritual signifigance. It is a Fact of human experience that most persons, if sufficiently hard pressed, will pray in some way to some source of help.
Do not be slothful as to as God to solve your difficulties, but never hesitate to ask him for wisdom and spiritual strength to guide and sustain you while you yourself resolutely and couragously attack the problem at hand.
Prayer has been an indispensable factor in the progress and preservation of religous civilization, and it still has mighty contributions to make to the further enhancement and spiritualization of society if those who pray will only do so in the light of scientific facts, philosophic wisdom, intellectual sincerity,and spiritual faith. Pray as Jesus taught his disciples-honestly, unselfishly, with fairness, and without doubting.
But the effiacy of prayer in the personal spiritual experience of the one who prays is in no way dependent on such a worshiper's intellectual understanding, philosophic acumen, social level, cultural status, or other mortal acquirements. The psychic and the spiritual concomitants of the prayer of faith are immediate, personal, and experimental.There is no other technique whereby every human regardless of all mortal accomplishments, can so effectively and immediately approach the threshold of that realm wherin he can communicate with his Maker, where the creature contacts the reality of the Creator, with the indwelling Thought Adjuster.
Bruiex's note: This post finally deals with the term Thought Adjuster: it is the unconscious part of us that is in contact with God, sort of a monitering software.It is also the straight conduit to the consciousness of the prescence of God.
