Rather than begging or beseeching God, affirmative prayer involves connecting with the spirit of God within and asserting positive beliefs about the desired outcome.

Affirmative prayer is the same method of prayer Jesus taught when he said, “So I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours” (Mark 11:24).  It is the core of our Positive Christianity.

​

For example, if one were to pray traditionally, one might say: “Please God, help me find a job.” By contrast, an affirmative prayer might be: “I am now guided to my right and perfect employment.”

​

Affirmative prayer reflects the certainty that we are each being led to our highest good, despite any temporary appearances.
