A powerful new way to pray

[cristianprince67]

I am very into prayer but also one of my hobbies is EFT which stands for Emotional Freedom Technique. What it is is tapping on acupuncture points while you say affirmations or something like that. I choose to tap while I pray, because it makes the prayer more powerful, in my experience anyway. So, I found on this EFT site an article about a lady who uses a different energy technique called EMO while she prays and it has had an amazing effect about her. She is a Catholic sister. **Removed**

Shalom ,

I replied on your other thread and asked you not to post links to outside webs. 

Please do not start another thread posting links. 

.....................

 

I will reply to you more or less as I did on your other thread.

We should pray opening our hearts to God and pray using our own words. 

 

We do not require words written by others or strange energy techniques.

 

Nothing we do, say or think is hidden from God , just open your heart to HIM. 

You don't need outside help to pray , pray from the inside. 

 

God Bless, 

Nigel.

Tapping can be a very effective way of countering cognitive dissonance and bad

modes of thinking. The focus that it brings to what we are doing and thinking can

lead to some very powerful changes.

Nevertheless, prayer is putting things into God's hands and relinquishing our presumed

powers to influence outcomes... so the two should not be confused as inextricably linked. 

Tapping can bring focus to our prayer-life but it has no influence on the outcome.

Beloved All That Is Needful, Is Jesus

 

Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. John 15:3-4

 

Merry Christmas~!

 

When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy. And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh. Matthew 2:10-11

 

Love, Joe

You mean after 6000 years of Judaism and 2000 years of Christianity......only these people have discovered a better way to pray

 

 

I am thinking...no

Mat 6:5  "And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward.

Mat 6:6  But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

Mat 6:7  "And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words.

Mat 6:8  Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.

 

Mat 6:9  Pray then like this: "Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.

Mat 6:10  Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

Mat 6:11  Give us this day our daily bread,

Mat 6:12  and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.

Mat 6:13  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

 

And that's about it. That's all you need to do....

God wants prayer to be simple.Just call on His name.

Tapping is for the neurologically atypical, people... cut the guy some slack.

There's nothing evil in it.

If you read the op's first post you will see that they say, 

 "it makes the prayer more powerful"

​It doesn't , the power of prayer is when we pray in accordance with HIS will be done and not ours.

Even the simplest prayer said from the heart is powerful.

It's a construct to improve focus of the mind... a focused mind could enhance prayer, no?
