Prayer, God and Cancer

PRAYER, GOD AND CANCER

At Puna Wai Ora Mind-Body Cancer Clinic, we regularly receive messages from God and the Angels to guide us in the work we are doing. When asked what is the best late stage alternative cancer treatment available, the first reply we received was prayer. The Angels spoke of the Lords prayer said out loud daily - preferably in Latin - was the most effective late stage cancer treatment. They indicated it was important to also: 1. Ask God for forgiveness of any wrongdoings; 2. Ask God to fill them with white light and love, 3. Ask for the pain to be diminished in Jesus’ name; (or another spiritual being you pray to) 4. State “Please bless me with white love and light in Jesus’ name and let the healing begin”, and; 5. Thank God, Jesus and the Angels for their healing and recovery. These are the words of God delivered by the Angels: “God will decide if a miracle happens. They need to connect with themselves more that they are on the right path to awareness of spiritual realms and God. They must believe in God to get through, to have more faith and trust in God. Once they open up, they will be open up in more ways than one."

THE LORDS PRAYER IN LATIN AND ENGLISH

Pater noster qui es in Caelis;
Father our who is in Heavens
Sanctificetur nomen tuum
Be-hallowed name your
Adveniat regnum tuum
Come kingdom your
Fiat voluntas tua
Be-done will your
Sicut in Caelo, et in Terra.
As in Heaven, And in Earth

Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie
Bread our daily (regular) give us today
Et dimmite nobis debita nostra
And dismiss (forgive) us debts our
Sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris.
As and we dismiss (forgive) debtors our
Et ne nos inducas in tentationem,
And not us lead (induce) into temptation
Sed libera nos a malo.
But free (liberate) us from evil

Our Father, who art in Heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the Kingdom, the Power, and the Glory. Forever and ever. Amen.

WORLDWIDE STUDIES REVEAL PRAYER AND FAITH IN GOD INCREASES CANCER SURVIVAL

STUDY 1: A spiritual approach in the treatment of cancer: relation between faith score and response to chemotherapy in advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients. Division of Radiation Oncology, San Gerardo Hospital, Monza, Milan, Italy.

Background: The recent advances in the psycho-oncological and psycho-neuro-immunological investigations of cancer patients has allowed the rediscovery of the importance of spiritual faith in influencing the clinical course of neoplastic disease, not only in terms of supportive care but also as a potential prognostic variable. Materials and Methods: Clinical criteria were worked out to explore the existence of a real status of faith, in an attempt to correlate the degree of faith with the clinical response to chemotherapy, consisting of cisplatin plus gemcitabine, and the overall survival time in a group of 50 metastatic non-small cell lung cancer patients. Results: The tumor response rate achieved in patients with a high degree of faith was significantly higher than in the other group of patients. Moreover, the mean post-chemo-therapeutic lymphocyte number was significantly higher in the patients with evident spiritual faith than in the other patients. Finally, the percent age of 3-year survival observed in the patients with a high degree of faith was significantly higher than that in the patients with a low faith score. Conclusion: This preliminary study suggests that spiritual faith may positively influence the efficacy of chemotherapy and the clinical course of neoplastic disease, at least in lung cancer, by improving the lymphocyte-mediated anticancer immune response.

STUDY 2: Association between prayer activity, inflammation, and survival in Advanced Cancer Patients (ACPs): A preliminary study. Author(s): Carlos Eduardo Paiva, Bianca Sakamoto Ribeiro Paiva, Camila Souza Crovador, Sriram Yennurajalingam, David Hui; Department of Clinical Oncology, Barretos Cancer Hospital, Barretos, Brazil; Post-graduation Program, Barretos Cancer Hospital, and Faculty of Health Sciences, Barretos, Brazil; Department of Palliative Care, Barretos Cancer Hospital, Barretos, Brazil; University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX.

Background: Prayers represent an important coping strategy among ACPs (Advanced Cancer Patients). The Religion Practice Questionnaire (RPQ) is a self-reported measure of religiosity validated in the Brazilian population, and includes a question assessing prayer activity. In this cross sectional prospective study, we determined the association among prayer activity, inflammation and survival in ACPs. Methods: Consecutive ACPs presenting for initial consultation at our Palliative Care Outpatient Clinic between March and December 2011 were enrolled. RPQ was administered by a research nurse, and consists of 15 items rated on a 5-point Likertscale (0=none, 5=very much). High prayer score (HPS) was defined as >3/5 for question 11 ("I make personal prayers – spontaneous communications with God"). Inflammatory markers included white blood cell (WBC), albumin and C-reactive protein (CRP). Correlation analysis was performed using Spearman test. Survival was calculated from study enrolment until death, and analyzed with log rank test and Cox regression model including age, sex, KPS, treatment type and HPS. Results: 112 patients were enrolled: average age 59 y (range 21-85), female 53% (N=59), Karnofsky performance status (KPS) ≤70 46% (N=51), most common cancers breast and upper GI (N=41, 37%), no longer on active cancer treatments 48% (N=54). All patients were Christians, and 77 (69%) had HPS (High Prayer Score). RPQ was not associated with WBC, albumin, CRP nor survival. HPS correlated with WBC (r=-0.24, p=0.02), and CRP (r=-0.26, p=0.01) but not albumin (r=0.18, p=0.08). Patients with HPS (High Prayer Score) survived longer (median 198 d vs. 121 d, p=0.040), which remained significant in multivariate analysis (Table). Conclusions: The act of praying was associated with decreased inflammation and improved survival in ACPs. Further studies are necessary to confirm these findings.

STUDY 3: Religious involvement, spirituality, and medicine: implications for clinical practice. Division of General Internal Medicine, Department of Anesthesiology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minn., 55905, USA.

Study review of existing studies by the Mayo Cancer Clinic: "Surveys suggest that most patients have a spiritual life and regard their spiritual health and physical health as equally important. Furthermore, people may have greater spiritual needs during illness. We reviewed published studies, meta-analyses, systematic reviews, and subject reviews that examined the association between religious involvement and spirituality and physical health, mental health, health-related quality of life, and other health outcomes. We also reviewed articles that provided suggestions on how clinicians might assess and support the spiritual needs of patients. Most studies have shown that religious involvement and spirituality are associated with better health outcomes, including greater longevity, coping skills, and health-related quality of life (even during terminal illness) and less anxiety, depression, and suicide. Several studies have shown that addressing the spiritual needs of the patient may enhance recovery from illness. Discerning, acknowledging, and supporting the spiritual needs of patients can be done in a straightforward and non-controversial manner. Furthermore, many sources of spiritual care (e.g., chaplains) are available to clinicians to address the spiritual needs of patients." P.S. Mueller, Mayo Clinic.

Anita Moorjani describes how after a four year battle with lymphoma, her body shut down and she entered a coma and was pronounced clinically dead, where she came into the all-oneness of God. In this space she learned of her connection to God, her inherent worth, and her true life purpose. She was given the choice to come back, knowing that with the Truth of her Existence as a Part of God's Being, that her new state of Awareness as a Being of God's Love would now reflect perfectly in her physical body and result in a miraculous healing -- and it did. Within four days her tumours had shrunk 70% and within weeks she was pronounced cancer free. She understood in the all-oneness of God that her cancer was a creation of her unhealed emotions and fears accumulated to date. In the video below, Merilee describes how she was miraculously cured of cancer through prayer.

After serving in Desert Storm, Wayne shares his story below of being diagnosed with malignant mesothelioma, a disease normally fatal within a few years of diagnosis, and how he turned to God in prayer and was healed completely of the disease.

After having being diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor, Evelyn shares her powerful story of being directed by God to stop praying (after her faith in God had become complete and she had fully surrendered to His Will). She reveals her period of prayer increased her faith so extensively in God that it didn't matter the outcome, and it was only at this time that God directed her to stop praying and to focus solely on praising God. Through this two-step process of (1) intense devotional prayer (which is the request to be healed by God) and (2) focusing solely on the praise of God (which is the pure glorification of God without any focus on the disease) did the brain tumor finally dissolve.

12 STEP CANCER SURVIVOR PROGRAM

STEP 1: HEAL THE ROOT PSYCHO-EMOTIONAL CAUSE OF CANCER

As revealed in the 6 phases of cancer, it is suppressed negative emotions (principally anger, hate, resentment and grief) which cause and continue to fuel cancer at the cellular level. Finding a way to remove these toxic emotions is critical to long term cancer recovery. The 93 page evidence-based thesis, "Psycho-Oncology: The 6 Phases of Cancer" (freely available below), reveals exactly how cancer develops in the body over 6 separate phases. Here you will be given proof from many hundreds of universities from around the world how cancer is caused due to the suppression of toxic negative emotions, and how this occurs at the cellular level. It is recommended you undertake sessions with an experienced healer of emotions (such as an EFT specialist) who can work with you to permanently remove these toxic emotions. Continuing a daily self-healing program to express and release cancer-causing emotions is also strongly advised and the Cancer Healing Guide is designed for this purpose. The Vipassana meditation technique is also beneficial for uncovering and releasing toxic emotions. You also encouraged to explore more fully the link between anger, unforgiveness and cancer and unresolved complicated grief and cancer. The book, "Healing dis-ease in the Mind of Christ" (also freely available below), will help you to explore more deeply the spiritual cause of why dis-ease is present within the mind, the spirit and the physical body, and now forms part of a 1-year self study course (A Course in Humility), which is crucial to overcoming all dis-eased state of thinking.

Psycho-Oncology: The 6 Phases of Cancer reveals how cancer occurs in the physical body due to a chronic stress build-up of unresolved trapped negative emotions.

STEP 2: SYSTEMS CHANGE (REMOVING STRESSFUL CONDITIONS)

As revealed by world-renowned cancer researcher Lothar Hirneise, 100% of all late stage 'miracle' cancer survivors of the hundreds he interviewed had all made dramatic system changes in their life before getting well, and had typically left a highly stressful job or relationship or highly stressful living condition. This is because those diagnosed with cancer have significantly elevated stress hormone cortisol levels, which deplete all-important adrenaline reserves within the body in phase 2 of cancer, breaking the cell's Kreb's Citric Acid Cycle, causing cell mutation and cancer. By removing anything in your life that is causing significant stress, this will help to normalize cortisol and adrenaline levels, and thus halt the condition known as cancer which is fuelled by chronic stress.

STEP 3: ACTIVE RELAXING (TO LOWER STRESS CORTISOL LEVELS)

Over many years the typical cancer personality has trained their body to remain rigid and tense in response to life stressors. And when the body is not relaxed the mind will not relax sufficiently enough to enter the deep-sleep-cycle to produce melatonin, which is the primary hormone responsible for inhibiting cancer cell growth. It is this "rigidity of body" that adds to the internal stress which continues to deplete all-important adrenaline reserves in phase 2 of cancer. You should ideally spend 2 hours each day in active relaxation mode to lower stress hormone cortisol levels, which in turn will help restore adrenaline reserves and enable you to enter the deep-sleep-cycle to produce melatonin. Here are some ways to actively relax: sitting amongst nature, walking on the beach, swimming, tai chi, aromatherapy massage, watching funny movies, join a laughter therapy group, holistic pulsing, meditation, deep breathing exercises, and listening to a guided relaxation recording.

STEP 4: USING MEDITATION TO INCREASE MELATONIN LEVELS

As revealed in phase 1 of cancer, melatonin is the primary hormone responsible for inhibiting cancer cell growth. It does this by producing interleukin 2 (IL-2) which governs the production of (cancer killing) immune system T cells, B cells, natural killer cells, macrophages and neutrophils. Melatonin is produced in the pineal gland of the brain between the hours of 1am and 3am in the morning during uninterrupted deep sleep. The cancer personality who suppresses for long periods toxic emotions (of anger, hate, resentment, and/or grief) is generally unable to enter this critical deep sleep cycle and therefore becomes depleted of melatonin over time -- one day at a time. Removing the toxic emotions that disrupt deep sleep and lowering stress hormone cortisol levels will naturally correct the problem, however studies have demonstrated meditation can also be used to produce melatonin by stimulating the pineal gland. Consider meditating for 30 minutes per day as part of your 2 hours of daily relaxation.

STEP 5: SUPPORTING / BOOSTING THE IMMUNE SYSTEM

There are a number of things that suppress or weaken the immune system, including high stress hormone cortisol levels, depleted melatonin and dopamine levels, parasites, pathogen microbes (viruses, bacteria, fungus), as well as chemotherapy and radiation. When the immune system is suppressed or weakened, the "cancer fungus" in phase 3 thrives. We recommend you incorporate at least one protocol to support and boost your immune system. High Dose Vitamin C Therapy can be used for this purpose and should wherever possible be used PRIOR to chemotherapy and radiation. Consider also: Fever Therapy, DMG, Lemon Juice Therapy, and Avemar. Note: If you are undertaking chemotherapy or radiation, consider Graviola capsules to prevent side-effects such as hair loss, nausea, and general malaise and energy loss. This natural product really works and prevents cell-resistance to chemotherapy.

STEP 6: REMOVING THE CANCER FUNGUS

As revealed by the Holy Spirit of God in phase 3 of cancer, what we know as cancer is in fact seven different types of fungus. When the cancer personality experiences prolonged chronic stress, somatids (tiny microorganisms necessary for life) that live in our body pleomorphise [or change] into yeast-like-fungus to ferment rising glucose and lactic acid in cells. In a healthy person, somatids are limited to 3 stages in their life cycle - somatid, spore, double spore. However, in a highly acidic (low pH) lactic acid environment, somatids pleomorphise into a further 13 stages. These stages include viral-bacterial-yeast-like-fungus forms that: a) migrate to the cell nucleus releasing "mycotoxins" causing cell DNA damaga and the mutation of normal cells into cancer cells, and b) ferments the glucose in cancer cells, providing a natural growth factor for cancer and tumor cells to metastasize in the body. For this reason it is recommended you include at least one of the following protocols to remove and keep at bay the cancer-fungus in your body: Apple Cider Vinegar, Garlic, Baking Soda, Essiac Tea, Clarkia, and Hyperthermia.

STEP 7: DETOXING THE LIVER AND COLON OF TOXINS

Those with cancer are typically overloaded with toxins in the key immune system organs of the body; the liver and colon. Toxins include "mycotoxins" or acidic waste products caused by: 1) the cancer-fungus, 2) a poor diet, 3) chemicals, alcohol, tobacco, 4) antibiotics, 5) chemotherapy agents, 6) fermentation of stress hormones, 7) poor exercise regime causing a build-up of lactic acid, and 8) dead microbes, parasites and cancer cells. These toxins build up primarily in the liver--the master immune system organ. When the liver is overloaded with these toxins, your immune system is weakened and you feel sicker, and cancer and viral-bacterial-yeast-like-fungus thrives. Thus it is very important to have a plan to detox the liver (the master immune system organ), the colon (the intestinal immune system), as well as the gall bladder and kidneys--especially if you are undertaking a treatment to kill cancer cells or the cancer fungus. If you don't, your liver cannot remove all the dead microbes and cancer cells, which remain overloaded in the liver. We recommend you include a daily treatment plan for detoxing the liver and colon. See Liver-Colon Cleanse. Ozonated Water should be considered for it is a superb body detoxifier, but should NOT be used by those with lung cancer or lung conditions.

STEP 8: RESTORING THE KREBS' CYCLE WITH NIACIN & VITAMIN C

Cancer can only exist when the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle of a person's body cells is broken. And this is due to adrenaline depletion (in phase 2), niacin deficiency (in phase 4) and vitamin C depletion (in phase 5), all of which are caused by prolonged chronic stress. Dr Abram Hoffer, the department head of psychiatry at a major hospital in Canada, started using niacin and high doses of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) to treat psychiatric patients and found (by accident) that it also effected a cure in some of his patients with cancer. He subsequently found of 132 patients he treated in his own private practice with so-called 'incurable cancer', 101 patients who followed his program (below) lived on average 16 times longer than the 31 patients who did not or could not follow his program. Dr Abram Hoffer and Linus Pauling presented the following study findings: "Mean survival time for the 31 patients who did not follow the regimen is 5.7 months. Of the others, who did follow the regimen, 20% were poor responders, with mean survival time 10 months, and 80% were good responders, with mean survival time 122 months for 32 patients with cancer of the breast, ovary, cervix, and uterus and 72 months for 47 patients with other kinds of cancer." [Click here to read full Abram Hoffer/Linus Pauling study and what each patient took to survive.]

Dr Abram Hoffer recommended the following regime to his patients: "The first thing I try to do is to cut their fat way down. So, I put them all on a dairy free program. I reduce, but I don't eliminate, meat and fish, and I ask them to increase their vegetables, especially raw, as much as they can. I think it's a good, reasonable diet, which most people can follow without too much difficulty. Having spent some time with them going over what they ought to eat, I begin to talk about the nutrients. The first one, of course, is vitamin C. The dose is variable. I find that most patients can take 12 grams per day without much difficulty, that's the crystalline vitamin C sodium ascorbate or calcium ascorbate. They take one teaspoon three times per day. If they do not develop diarrhea, I ask them to increase it until this occurs and then to cut back below that level. I think in many cases it would be desirable to use intravenous vitamin C. I also add vitamin B-3, either niacin or niacinamide. I prescribe from 500 mg to 1500 mg per day. I also add a B (vitamin) complex preparation 50 or 100. I think vitamin E is an extremely important anti-oxidant and I use that as well, 800 to 1200 I.U. They also get 25,000 to 75,000 units of beta carotene. (One cup of raw carrot juice contains 36,600 units of beta carotene, which converts to vitamin A). I sometimes use vitamin A. I like to use folic acid for lung cancer, and for cancer of the uterus. I use selenium, 200 mcg, three times per day. I use some zinc, especially for prostatic cancers and I do use calcium-magnesium."

STEP 9: RE-ALKALIZING THE BODY'S NATURAL pH BALANCE

As discovered by Otto Warburg, cancer cells only survive in a low pH highly acidic environment, and this is why those with cancer typically have a low pH of between 4.0 and 6.5pH. This highly acidic environment occurs when the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle of the cell is broken due prolonged chronic stress depleting all-important adrenaline reserves. As the cell can no longer produce ATP energy via the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle, the cell instead ferments glucose [to obtain smaller amounts of ATP energy] via the process known as Glycolysis, causing lactic acid levels to rise sharply within the cell. This lactic acid problem is further compounded when the somatid in phase 3 of cancer pleomorphises into the cancer-fungus to ferment rising glucose and lactic acid, itself releasing acidic waste products called "mycotoxins". As cancer cells find it difficult to survive in a high pH alkaline environment of 7.5 or greater, it is therefore essential to: 1) Remove the lactic-acid forming psycho-emotional stress (i.e. toxic negative emotions), 2) introduce alkaline-based foods, and 3) include dextrorotatory lactic acid, which is administered in homeopathic form as prescribed by Dr Waltraut Fryda.

STEP 10: REVERSING THE SUBCONSCIOUS DESIRE TO "EXIT LIFE"

As revealed by the Holy Spirit of God in phase 6 of cancer, cancer manifests as a result of a subconscious wanting to "exit life", caused by the individual feeling overwhelmed by the pain of life and no longer having a strong desire or will to live. This desire to exit life -- experienced not so much consciously, but at the subconscious "feeling level" of the mind -- sends subliminal messages to the immune system to shut down and stop working, enabling cancer cells and the cancer-fungus to thrive. God reveals it is important to examine this subconscious desire to exit life and to see whether 2-4 years prior to diagnosis you felt this way, and to make the decision to re-activate the immune system, by generating an energy of wanting to live that is greater than the energy to exit life. The Cancer Healing Guide will help you examine your will to live in greater depth, and of course, removing the suppressed toxic negative emotions (emotional pain) that caused the subconscious desire to exit life is a critical key component. Giving service is also a powerful way of reversing the subconscious desire to exit life, for not only does it give us a new reason to live our life in a meaningful way, it also brings in the power of God's healing to both giver and receiver. Should you feel drawn to sharing the Word of God with those incarcerated, you can give service in a variety of ways through our prison outreach program.

STEP 11: CONNECTING TO GOD / YOUR HIGHER SPIRITUAL SELF

At Puna Wai Ora, we regularly receive messages from God to guide us in the work we are doing. When we asked what is the best late stage alternative cancer treatment available, the first reply we received was prayer. The Angels spoke of the Lord's Prayer spoken out loud daily - preferably in Latin - was the most effective late stage cancer treatment. They indicated it was important to: 1. Ask God for forgiveness of any wrong-doings, 2. Ask God to fill them with white love and light, 3. Ask for the pain to be diminished in Jesus' name [or another spiritual being you pray to], 4. State "Please bless me with white love and light in Jesus' name and let the healing begin", and 5. Thank God, Jesus and the Angels for their healing and your recovery. These are the words of God delivered by the angels: "God will decide if a miracle happens. They need to connect with themselves more that they are on the right path to awareness of spiritual realms and God. They must believe in God to get through, to have more faith and trust in God. Once they open up, they will be open up in more ways than one. Their pain will not be as intense, they will be comforted."

STEP 12: CHOOSING AN ALTERNATIVE CANCER TREATMENT

It is important to choose at least one alternative cancer treatment to target and eliminate cancer cells within the body. In most cases you should only need to choose one treatment in addition to the above 11 steps. We highly recommend your alternative cancer treatment include at least one dietary treatment such as the Johanna Budwig Cancer Diet, the Gerson Therapy Cancer Diet, the Bill Henderson Diet Protocol (based on the Budwig diet), or the Brandt Grape Cure. The 42 day organic juice fast known as the Breuss Cure or Breuss Treatment has also been used in the treatment of cancer. Remember, always choose a diet you enjoy that fosters a will to live.
