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. |

Freedom to Choose
God loves you so much that you were given you dominion over all things in your world. He has also given you the choice of exercising your dominion or refusing to do so. You are completely free to renounce thoughts of limitation, weakness, and failure and express your divine authority. How many of us in the human family, without realising it, are rejecting God’s good and loving provision for our lives? We pray earnestly for strength, freedom, and self-mastery, then rise from our prayer periods still possessed by the same doubts, fears, and anxieties that, by our permission, have become embedded in our consciousness. In doing this, even though we may not realise it, we are assuming that God’s spirit in us has no power to free us. No matter what our thought habits have been in the past, we can determine to eliminate worry, doubt, and uncertainty from our minds. When we positively renounce all limiting ideas we are at once established in serenity and faith, and know unerringly that we have dominion by the power of Christ within to control fully and wisely our thoughts and desires. In order to cleanse your consciousness of negative, limiting thoughts and to realise the boundless good God has prepared for you, be faithful in meditation upon this prayer: Through the power of Christ in me I am strong; I am free; I am victorious. As you pray, seek to replace any negative thought with true thoughts of God’s love for you. Thus you are set free from negative thinking and its results, set free to enter upon a new way of life in which your mind and body are serene and at peace, and you are the master. Study diligently the life and works of Jesus Christ. Approach His Truth with a loving and receptive heart, and you will see how all that He said and did enlightens and strengthens humankind, pointing the way to free, abundant living. In giving us the freedom to choose to join Him in creative activity, God has given us a great responsibility and a divine privilege. When we choose to be inspired and directed by the Christ spirit within us, we work in accord with God’s true plan for our lives and experience only abundant good. It is God’s most ardent desire that we use our freedom of choice to accept and enjoy the good things that have been prepared for us from the beginning of time. God’s kingdom of life, love, joy, and abundance is ever with us, but we must choose to enter and abide there if we are to exercise our divine domination and live fully, according to the divine design. “It is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom” (Lk. 12:32). Choose it now! #373 |
