Emmet Fox on scientific prayer #essentialsofrec #Prayer #Quiet

Get by yourself, and be quiet for a few moments.
 Do not strain to think rightly or to find the right thought, but just be quiet.
 The Bible says "Be still, and know that I am God."


Remind yourself of some of the things that you know about Him. Consider how he is present everywhere, and a part of everything ( even our adversities become fuel for building faith). Read a few verses from any spiritual book that helps you. I find that all the major religions have a common theme, through reading Eastern mystics and chritian theologians I am reminded of the universality of the idea of God that rests in all of us.
During this time of reflection and prayer do not think about your prob-
lem, but to give your attention to God. We do not need try to
solve our problem directly (which would be using will power, directing our thoughts can lead us to confuse our will with His) but rather become interested in thinking of the nature of God. Next claim the thing that you need. Claim it quietly and confidently. Then give thanks for the accomplished fact as you would if somebody handed you a gift. That famous Jewish Carpenter said when you pray, believe that you receive and you shall receive.
Do not discuss your treatment with anyone.

Quiet confidence is a source of strength
