Positioned for HEALING!
“Spiritual healing occurs as we begin to consciously reconnect with our essential being – the wise, loving, powerful, creative entity that we are at the core.”

‘We must know more about God than we know about [the] condition.’
Rev. Claudia Fletcher
Prosperity Partners and Friends,
As I write these words, I am feeling victorious. I am feeling healed. What about you? For everything that unfolds in our lives it is we who decide its meaning. Some fall down and say, ‘I must get up.’ Others say, ‘I can’t get up.’ Or ‘Why did I have to fall down?’ Or ‘My life is over because I fell down.’ Or ‘So What?’ The responses that any of us offer when going through a ‘rough patch’ in life are varied. We respond based on where we are ‘looking from’ in our own conscious awareness. This is the message that Rev. Claudia shared with us on Sunday.
Specifically, she shared that life’s healing moments can be met with the following formula:
Desire to be healed + Prayer + Belief that prayer is answered = HEALING!
This formula is a sure remedy whenever we face discomfort of any kind. Isn’t it great that we can choose what our response to life events will be? Isn’t it powerful to know that we can choose our response even when we feel frightened or upset or uncomfortable? We are reminded that when we believe the prayers we pray, we position ourselves for healing. While our desire to be healed starts the ball of healing rolling, it is our faith in answered prayer that gets us across the goal line to a healing demonstration.
Rev. Claudia reminded us that the ‘healing position is an inward one!’ She asked this question: ‘What must you know about God to experience your healing? Are you thinking in alignment with the Truth about God or about the symptoms? Are you focused on life and healing?’ You must always remember that whatever you focus on, expands. Focus on what is true about God who made you, rather than on your research on Google.com that may scare you.
Answer this question: ‘Does God impart that which is less than wholeness?’ Your answer determines your most likely response to life’s appearances that suggest wholeness is not possible for you. It is not enough to believe in God’s wholeness. You must believe in God’s wholeness IN YOU, FOR YOU and AS YOU! Think of wholeness as a gift that you have been given. Since God is not indifferent to any of us, each of us has the gift of wholeness. It is up to us to accept it.
God made us in the image and likeness of pure Being. It is therefore God’s responsibility to maintain and sustain that image in harmony, wholeness, completeness, and perfection. It must be our privilege to allow God to be God in us and to let God reveal the wholeness that has been ours since the beginning of time.
Take a position for your health and wholeness in mind, body and all that concerns you. You have within you all you will ever need to ‘pick up your bed and walk.’ This is true for the man at the Pool of Bethesda and it is true for you. (John 5:1-9)
Take your position for healing and Be healed!
Empowered to Get It Done,
Rev. Sheila
