Crystal Healing
Crystal
Healing - What is it?
Crystal healing is a form of healing that uses crystals or gemstones.
Crystal healing is a form of healing that uses crystals or gemstones.
The crystals are mainly placed on specific areas of the body called
"chakras."
Chakra is a Hindu term meaning vortex of spiritual energy.
According to this teaching there are seven basic energy centers in the
body, each having a color associated with it.
Some crystal healers place the same color crystals as the color of the
chakras on the person to enhance the flow of energy.
Crystals are said to direct the flow of energy to the person in a
particular part of the body and bring balance to a person's energy.
Ultimately, they are used to cleanse the person from bad or negative
energy believed to cause an illness.
Clearing out the bad spiritual energy alleviates the physical ailment.
Crystals are used for physical, mental, emotional and spiritual healing.
Not only do people visit "crystal healers", in some places,
professional nurses are being trained to use crystals for their patients.
Additionally, crystals can be worn, placed next to a person's bed as
they sleep, and in some cases placed around a person's bath.
Crystal
Healing - Who does it & does it really work?
The originator of crystal healing is unknown. However, this practice has been around for centuries.
The originator of crystal healing is unknown. However, this practice has been around for centuries.
People have used amulets, magical stones, and gems all throughout
history (though mainly in the eastern cultures).
It is now making its way into the western culture, primarily in the New
Age and Occult movements.
Crystal healers argue that it truly works; however, there is no concrete
scientific evidence to prove that it truly heals.
People say they have been healed and feel better, but these cases are
generally limited to personal testimonies.
A lot of the scientific world has brushed these testimonies off as a
placebo effect, selective thinking, wishful thinking, sympathetic magic, or
communal reinforcement.
Crystal healers commonly prefer clear quartz, because of its shape and
color.
However, since chakras have colors associated with each area, they may
place the specific color crystal/gemstone on the same color chakras.
The crystals/gemstones are said to have vibration frequencies that are
shape induced, interconnecting the earth's and the individual's energy field.
The crystal is used to amplify, or realign, human 'psychic' or cosmic
energy by directing vibration energy.
To maintain the crystal, it is placed in salt water or covered with
table salt. Maintaining the crystal helps keeps it clean from
"environmental imbalance."
It is said that it also needs to be recharged and activated through various
methods.
What's wrong
with Crystal Healing?
Is there anything wrong with crystal healing?
Is there anything wrong with crystal healing?
While there's nothing inherently wrong with crystals by themselves,
there is something wrong when it is used for healing or as a charm to keep you
from harm.
One issue would be that it could be harmful to your body physically.
For instance, if you stopped taking medication prescribed for your
illness, because you have placed your faith in crystal healing, you risk
dangerous consequences to your health.
It can be dangerous spiritually, since this is a practice that calls
upon powers to heal that are not from God. People put their hope in a crystal
to heal them, or even the "crystal healer", who "channel"
and rely on the crystals to teach and heal.
Unfortunately, they are relying on spiritual sources for the healing.
Even if they claim that they are using the crystal to direct physical
energy flow to help bring balance, it is rooted in the spiritual realm, meaning
there is some source working behind it.
Ultimately, this is considered an occult practice, which God clearly
tells us to stay away from.
God does not want us to participate with these practices because it
draws us away from Him and we begin to trust in spiritual sources other than
Him.
At its core, crystal healing is a form of mysticism, witchcraft, and
occult practices.
Jesus never used crystals to heal.
And it was not encouraged anywhere in the Bible.
Crystals are talked about in various verses, but not as a form of
healing or for energy balance.
Instead, these scriptures tell us not to participate in any forms of sorcery, witchcraft, divination, etc …
Some scripture references include:
·
Mediums and
"Spiritists" (Leviticus 19:31; 20:6; Acts 16:16-21)
·
Astrology (Isaiah 47:13-15)
·
Magic Charms
(Ezekiel 13:20ff)
·
Diviner's
Wand (Hosea 4:12)
·
Sorcery (Acts 19:19)
·
Witchcraft (Galatians 5:20)
·
Magic Arts (Revelation 9:21; 21:8; 22:15)
·
Occult (Deuteronomy 18:10-12)
Crystal healing should be examined with caution.
Any form of healing that contradicts God’s Word is not from Him.
Overall, it is important to remember that the evil
one comes as an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14).
However, his real motivation is to kill, steal, and
destroy (John 10:10).
Talk to the God of the universe and let Him work in
your behalf
He says, “I will instruct you and teach
you the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you" (Psalm 32:8).
Ask God to show you what to do. Pray the following
prayer:
“Heavenly
Father,
I
admit that I am a sinner and my sins have separated me from You. I now want to
turn away from my past sinful life and begin a new life with You. Please
forgive me.
You
know the situation I am in right now. I lay everything at Your feet, fully believing
that You are in complete control.
I
now receive Your Son, Jesus Christ as my Savior, my Master and my Lord. I
believe and confess that Jesus Christ died for my sins, was buried, and rose
from the dead.
I
want to receive all that Jesus Christ has provided for me as my Savior. Your
Word says, ‘Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.’
I
believe and confess that Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and
no man comes unto the Father, but by Him.
Lord
Jesus, I pray and ask You, to come into my heart and be Lord of my life. I
thank You that You have given me eternal life. I take Your promise that by Your
stripes I am healed.
Heavenly
Father, thank You for the gift of the Holy Spirit Who is in me now. Thank you
that Your Word says I am born again.
I surrender my life to You. I promise to study
Your Word – the Bible.
Use
me for Your glory.
In
Jesus’ Name. Amen.”
