The word treatment is usually applied to a prayer that is made for some specific purpose, as distinct from a general prayer, which is really a visit with God. You must remember that a treatment is a definite practical action, having a definite object and a definite beginning and end. It is in fact a surgical operation on the soul.
Let us suppose that you decide to heal a certain difficulty by prayer. You know that your difficulty must be caused by some negative thought charged with fear and located in the subconscious mind. You therefore turn to God, and remind yourself of His goodness, His limitless power, and His care for you. As you work the fear will begin to dissolve, and the awareness of the Truth corrects the erroneous beliefs themselves.
Thank God for the healing that you believe will come – and then keep your thought off the matter until you feel led, after an interval, to treat again.
He sent his word, and healed them … (Psalm 107:20).
In common vernacular this is called curing the disease rather than treating the symptoms. The focus of our prayer needs to be on the cause; which is the subconscious thought charged with fear, not the manifestation, not the actual difficulty itself. This is the exact opposite of how we normally react. We tend to focus on the headache instead of its cause. If instead, we focus our thoughts on God’s goodness, power and love for us, then we begin to remove the cancerous fear that is causing our subconscious difficulty. Then, the manifestation of the problem begins to disappear or may even become to be seen as a blessing.
When we follow this method of prayer, the path to joy is reopened in our minds and spirits, wherein our physical selves will always follow. Then we will be healed and fear of free.
Fearlessly,
