Prayer Resources
When the prayer line is closed or busy, you can leave a message with your prayer request. At this time you can also listen to a special prayer message. Many people find listening to these messages, for example through the night, very helpful and uplifting.

Book of Silent Prayer
First published in 1969, Unity’s Book of Silent Prayer quickly became a cherished companion for generations of Unity members. A rich and thoughtful compilation of Unity prayers, reflections, verse, Biblical readings and affirmations for different occasions.
Although the book is now sadly out of print, we present here a short selection of some of the best prayers from the original, in the form of eight short YouTube videos. The words are read by Steve Gough, Sheila Ross and Patricia Rosser – and accompanied by restful natural images and sounds. |

God is your Unfailing Guide - Mary Kupferle
You are not alone during any challenge in your life, dear friend. There is within you a spirit of infinite love and wisdom – the spirit of God – that is ready to lead you to the best resolution of any concern. Now and always, God is your unfailing guide. Relax in this moment and let the spirit of God lift you and harmonise your thoughts and feelings. Give yourself and all that concerns you to God. Let go and let God direct you. Rely on God’s guidance. God is your unfailing guide – in everything! You are being guided to act in ways that assure your well-being. If you seek employment or financial security, know: God is my unfailing guide. You will be guided to take the right action. You will know whom to contact, what to say, when to go forward, or when to just “be still and know” (Ps. 46:10). If you long for release from unhappiness, remember: God is my unfailing guide. You will be given ideas which will support you, words which will uplift you, friends who will encourage you and inner comfort which will accompany you wherever you go. No matter what your need may be, my friend, there is a definite and right answer waiting for your acceptance. Quietly listen to the spirit of God within. Establish a consistent pattern of being aware of the slightest indication of inner guidance. Again and again, day and night, keep turning your attention to God’s love and wisdom. As you do, you are opening yourself to peace, inspiration and wholeness. In Jesus’ life experiences, every healing, deliverance, protection and blessing depended upon the guidance of God. Hear again the words that Jesus spoke: “I can do nothing on my own. As I hear, I judge; and my judgement is just, because I seek to do not my own will but the will of him who sent me.” (Jn. 5:30). Jesus’ practice of listening to the spirit of God within for guidance preceded every life-giving word He spoke and every action He took. Little is written about the content of His prayers as He brought forth healing, peace and supply, but there is overwhelming evidence that listening for the guidance of God was the predominating basis of the miracles He performed. Remember today that God is your unfailing guide in every challenge of your personal life. Even when the blessings you seek are not visible to you, remember that God is your unfailing guide. Even though you may have little encouragement from outer sources, persist in knowing that God is your unfailing guide. There may be times when you seem to slip back into disbelief or unsureness about yourself, but in these moments, you can hold again to the words: God is my unfailing guide! Yes, it takes effort, determination and forward movement when you may not see the reasons for them. Here and now you can see more clearly the value of your own unfolding self and your own developing strengths. Take time each day to pray and to hold these words in your heart: God is my unfailing guide. God is guiding me through every challenge to right solutions and clear answers. God is guiding me from confusion into new light and understanding. God is my unfailing guide – in everything! Take heart, dear friend. More blessings lie ahead of you than you may now be able to seeYes! God is your unfailing guide - in everything! #395 |

Thank you for your prayers and words of comfort. Thank goodness I am feeling very much better from the recent illness… your support has been of great comfort to me.
Joy
From feeling so alone and troubled, the peace I was longing for, and the comfort from knowing I was being enfolded in prayer, came back to me, and is still with me. Thank you for all that you do and give, it helps one so much. Thank you for continuing to hold me and my loved ones in prayer, which you have done for many years now.

Dear Silent Unity,
I phoned last week for prayers to be said for my husband and son. I am very happy and grateful to say that my husband is getting better every day and my son has already been offered a job he likes. Thank you for putting them on your list of prayers. We thank God for the blessing our family always. We thank Unity for their spiritual support and we deeply appreciate your help. Thank you for the kind letters and support you gave us. It is always a pleasure to receive your letters and excited to read them as well. Your letters always give me some peace of mind and draw me closer to God.
