“In true prayer we take with us words of Truth … an affirmation, and turn our attention within to
the very center of our being … We affirm these words of Truth and meditate on them, then get
very still and wait in the silence for God to make them real to us.” Charles Fillmore

True Prayer
“Prayer is an affirmation of that which is in Being. [We pray] In order that the creative law
of the word may be fulfilled, we must pray. All things are in God as potentialities. It is man's
share in the creative process to bring the unmanifest to manifestation.” Charles Fillmore

Affirmation
“It is necessary to pray believing that we have received because God is all that we desire. The good always exists in Divine Mind as ideas, and we bring it into manifestation through the prayer
of faith, affirmation, praise, and acknowledgment.” Charles Fillmore

Unity Prayer Practice
“Do not supplicate or beg God to give you what you need, but get still and think about the
inexhaustible resources of infinite Mind, its presence in all its fullness, and its constant
readiness to manifest itself for you when its laws are complied with.” Charles Fillmore

Infinite Mind
“The inner chamber is the "secret place of the Most High" (Psalms 91:1). It is the very depths of a man's consciousness. To enter it is to turn the attention from the without to the within. To "shut thy door" is to still the senses and close
the mind against every disturbing exterior thought.” Charles Fillmore

Temple
“We should "pray without ceasing." We should continue "steadfastly in prayer." We should
acquire in prayer a facility in asking equal to the expert mathematician's swiftness in handling
numbers; having done that, we shall get responses in like proportion.” Charles Fillmore

Mathematics
“When man silently asks for the intervention of Spirit in restoring health, he is calling into
increased activity the natural forces of the body. Through prayer the mind is renewed and the
body transformed.” Charles Fillmore

Transformation
“We give our children what we consider good gifts, from our limited and transitory store, but
when the gifts of God are put into our mind we have possessions that are eternal, that will go
on producing for all time.” Charles Fillmore
