Firmness and persistence
Firmness and persistence are important qualities in healing through prayer.
When we have been striving hard to overcome an ailment and seem to be making no progress, we might start searching within to see what thoughts we need to correct. It may be that we only need to be firmer in holding to the truth until we gain a conviction of the allness of God, good, and the nothingness of the discord.
Perhaps we are making statements of the absolute truth of being and are denying the specific error. But are we staying with the work until the temptation to slip back into erroneous thinking has been overcome and we feel convinced that the truth is indeed true?
