In our business we talk about affirmations for people to use to sort of "reprogram their minds." And if I have the freedom with a particular class, I will tell them that scripture is the best "affirmation" of all to say over and over to themselves, to write it down, to tell others, etc.!  |
Pray reading is very powerful, and essential, if done in sincerity, not just mumbling some mindless words. Brother Lee brought it to the forefront during the 70s, but, it has been around for a long time. A well known mystic named Emmet Fox talked about it in one of his books in the 1930s. The Quaker group I met with practiced something similar, on occasion. It's just largely forgotten.
