# Chain: Healing Channel > *How a person becomes a channel for God's healing in the world* **The argument it traces:** Healing flows from God, not the healer → the impulse to heal must begin in the soul, not the mind → mental constructs and divided purpose lower resonance and draw lesser influences (Law of Attraction) → singleness of purpose and surrender make one a clear channel → even a few such souls change the world **5** messages · **11** supporting · main statement not yet chosen --- ## Foundation ### 2016-01-04 - [[2016-01-04 On Being a Comforter in This World|On Being a Comforter in This World]] Given to a group formed to bring healing to the world, asking what moves them, mind or soul. Healing comes from God through the channel, "the most powerful way is through sincere prayer allowing God's beautiful healing to flow through you and through this group"; the impulse must begin in the soul, "the proper intention which starts with the soul, my beloveds, it does not start with the mind"; mental constructs lower the group and draw lesser influences by the Law of Attraction, "when you get bogged down with your mental constructs... you bring yourselves to another level that is not of the highest and in so doing, through the laws of attraction you bring in other influences"; singleness of purpose keeps the channel clear; and a few such souls change the world, "you would change the world. It does not take many souls to be in this beautiful condition." Anchor. Distinct from [[Chains/Divine Love Healing|Divine Love Healing]], which is what Divine Love healing is; this thread is how a person becomes a channel for it. ## Elaboration ### 2015-03-27 - [[2015-03-27 Every Human Soul Is Damaged by the Earth Condition|Every Human Soul Is Damaged by the Earth Condition]] Joins two things: you cannot carry Love to others until you have let it heal you. "In order to be a clear channel of Love one must be healed within to allow the love of God to do its work, and to do so in a conscious way, to make those choices that do not further injure yourself or others," restated at the close as the cleansing of "those elements within which block the passage, which inhibit the Love." He also states the thread's small-numbers claim: "it does not require great numbers to bring love and light to this world, it requires a yearning soul in prayer in harmony with one another." Closest member [[2016-02-10 Remember to Nourish Your Soul|2016-02-10-af-confucius]], whose precondition is nourishing one's own soul rather than being healed first, so the two do not overlap. ### 2016-02-10 - [[2016-02-10 Remember to Nourish Your Soul|Remember to Nourish Your Soul]] The working method, given to those doing healing work: "remember to pray for God to touch that soul through you, to be in harmony with this great flow of Love which comes from the Creator," with the precondition, "Remember to nourish your soul foremost, to be in alignment with the Heavenly Father, to make this your focus, to make this your anchor." Sets the soul's emanation of love above the other energies of body and spirit body, "this great, powerful, emanation of love that can only come from your soul," as what makes the healing powerful. ### 2016-05-02 - [[2016-05-02 How to Walk upon the Path Divine|How to Walk upon the Path Divine]] Extends the channel teaching from designated healing work to ordinary daily care ("whether it be your children, or the elderly or those in deep need, ask your Heavenly Father to make within you a channel of Love"), with the comparative claim that the result exceeds what natural love achieves. Closest member [[2016-02-10 Remember to Nourish Your Soul|2016-02-10-af-confucius]] (method and precondition); Mary supplies the field of application and the measure against natural love. ### 2016-07-25 - [[2016-07-25 Power of Prayers Multiplied in Healing Circles|Power of Prayers Multiplied in Healing Circles]] What the channel's work does once it leaves the circle: the prayer collected in "a great vessel," overflowing "into various streams travelling in all directions in the world," so that "this one great beam of Light is multiplied over and over again exponentially and touches many, many thousands in the world." The thread's closing claim, that even a few such souls change the world, shown at work.

And this does not require labels or positions within any church." - **2016-01-08** [[2016-01-08 Encouragement from Jesus|Encouragement from Jesus]] (witness) - The commission names the opening of "a great channel of service for mankind," through which they will "bring comfort to their bodies and their minds, bring Truth to their souls"; encouragement and commissioning rather than the channel's mechanism. The commissioning itself is the [[Chains/Vanguards Of Change|Vanguards Of Change]] Foundation below. - **2016-05-12** [[2016-05-12 How to Be a Fearless Channel of Love in the World|How to Be a Fearless Channel of Love in the World]] (sighting) - The counsel to step into what looks too difficult, "if you see something as too difficult, I would suggest that you put aside your fears and step up"; about taking up service rather than about what makes the channel clear. - **2016-07-27** [[2016-07-27 Be a Link in the Chain of God's Blessings to Others|Be a Link in the Chain of God's Blessings to Others]] (sighting) - "Each one here influences many, many souls, my beloveds, through your simple desire and intentions to be a channel of Light and love in this world"; assumes the clear channel rather than saying what makes it. - **2016-08-25** [[2016-08-25 Embrace All in the Flow of God's Love|Embrace All in the Flow of God's Love]] (sighting) - Serve without understanding your own part ("it shall flow through you"); the unawareness point overlaps bell-toll rather than the channel mechanism. - **2016-09-03** [[2016-09-03 Love Brings Resolution to Disturbances|Love Brings Resolution to Disturbances]] (witness) - The channel described as someone who raises the conditions of a room, working with the spirit side, "if you are channels of love, acceptance, humility and prayer you will assist us in keeping the conditions at a higher level," naming four constituents of the channel. That chain concerns what makes an individual a clear conduit for a healing act; this concerns what a group of channels does to the atmosphere of a gathering, and names the spirits as beneficiaries of that work. - **2016-09-14** [[2016-09-14 Being in the Light Takes Conscious Effort|Being in the Light Takes Conscious Effort]] (witness) - The maturity precondition, "Each of you must grow to a sort of maturity where you can control these conditions within you in order to be a channel of the highest magnitude, in order for us to use you in powerful ways". What it adds, thought and emotional discipline as the content of the clearing, is carried by the two roles above and not counted again. - **2016-10-17** [[2016-10-17 Let Your Light Shine|Let Your Light Shine]] (witness) - The method reduced to its minimum, in answer to her own question. "And how is this accomplished? By merely being close to God and in being close to God you are attuned to the flow of His Love in the world." Nearest to it is [[2016-02-10 Remember to Nourish Your Soul|2016-02-10-af-confucius]], the working method, pray for God to touch the soul through you, act in resonance, nourish your own soul first. What this does is strip the method of technique altogether, where [[2016-02-10 Remember to Nourish Your Soul|2016-02-10-af-confucius]] gives the seeker something to do. Held at witness because a subtraction is hard to distinguish from a restatement in one sentence. - **2016-11-06** [[2016-11-06 Be Disciples of the Truth|Be Disciples of the Truth]] (sighting) - "to bring the blessing of healing" appears in a list of what a channel does; an item rather than a teaching. - **2016-11-26** [[2016-11-26 When You Follow Your Guidance, and Be a Channel of God's Love, Many Blessings Follow|When You Follow Your Guidance, and Be a Channel of God's Love, Many Blessings Follow]] (considered and set aside) - The passage is about being a channel of Love, not of healing. Andrew names choosing for yourself who should be blessed as the division that clouds the channel and gives words to say instead, "Father I am a channel of your love, whomever you desire to touch, to ignite this longing within the souls of others, so be it. Make me that channel for you," but there is no healing language, and the outcome is ignited longing rather than healing. - **2016-12-01** [[2016-12-01 Sowing Seeds of Truth|Sowing Seeds of Truth]] (sighting) - Tahlia comes "to assist her and all of you who wish to give healing to others," encouraging a member whose gifts are "just beginning to emerge," healing among them. Nothing is said about how a person becomes a clear channel.
