How are you filled with the water of life?

What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

When He said that, He knew what He was saying, and He meant just that―not something else.

When you ask God to pour His spirit on you, declare with the most absolute conviction―

The power, and the presence of the Almighty is on me, anointing and healing me, instructing or guiding me.

Do not then jump up, and immediately set about doing your own sweet will. 

Stay still in absolute, profound stillness and silence, and hear what God will say

Feel the rhythm of the divine power of God―

Be filled with the water of life.

May love immortal set in thy heart forever.

May love immortal set in thy heart forever.

May joy, like wreaths in nature's bowers, be thine, and when spirits come to bear thee above, may they look on thee with love.

May your highest hope be realised in the land of the loved, and may wreaths immortal encircle thy brow in that beautiful home where the sun never sets, and where execrations have never found a hiding-place, and may truth, purity and prosperity follow thee to the end of life.

Almighty Wisdom

Almighty Wisdom,

We submit to the divine outpourings of Thy Pure Spirit.

We are the children of Thy hand, O Lord,

Fashioned by Thy Wisdom,

And may we ever move in the right way,

And draw near unto this light which is from Thee.

May we be more merciful in our nature

As we advance step-by-step toward Thee.

We have seen a light shining in our midst;

We have heard the sweet voices of those we love;

We have seen the curtain drawn aside

By which we were hidden,

And have come here to console,

To teach and to elevate those we love above the passions of life.

May they, as they journey on, learn new lessons of love;

May they be able to withstand the shafts of bigotry,

And may they have a broader influence for good over the earth.

May our light so shine

That all may see there is something good in store for them in the future.

From the highest angel to the lowest being on earth,

We feel we are but a speck in Thy Creation.

Hear us, O Lord, and make us more truthful,

More honest and more sincere in our associations with one another.

May we all see the dawning day

And feel we have a great work to do.

Hear us now and forever.

Magical Prayers

MADE WITH LOVE—MAGICAL PRAYERS


The first to work definitely to lift up the gates of ignorance and inculcate the constructive principles of the Law of Life should be those whose consciousness can grasp and realise that love, compassion, justice, co-operation and all constructive forces neutralise and transmute the clouds of karmic dust and inharmony into peace, brotherhood and co-operation.

The uniting of thousands of hearts and minds to this definite end should generate a great current of dynamic spiritual force sweeping continuously around the world and help in opening wide the everlasting doors and preparing for the quick coming of the King of Glory, not only into our own hearts and lives, but into the lives of nations and humanity as a whole.

The Teacher

A group of detainees at Joint Task Force Guantanamo bow and touch the forehead to the ground as they observe morning prayer before sunrise inside Camp Delta 28 October. Detainees at the JTF are afforded the opportunity to pray five times each day and are provided prayer rugs and copies of the QuranPetty Officer 1st Class Marcos HernandezU.S. Navy

Repeat morning, noon and night, or oftener, but at least at noon each day, the following Prayer for World Harmony with a deep heartfelt realisation of its significance and a scientific understanding of its dynamic psychological power to awaken and stimulate into action every germ of good in the hearts of mankind.

It is noon somewhere every minute of the day, which like a refreshing breeze should cool the heat of conflicting interests and blow off the karmic dust of the past which is settling upon and blinding individuals and nations to the Law of Life—harmony and co-operation.

See the Radiance which this Prayer invokes, dispelling the clouds of inharmony as the Sun dispels the fog, and stimulating the growth of the good in each heart as the Sun stimulates the growth of the sprout when the fog has been dispelled and the Sun can carry on its constructive work.

PRAYER FOR WORLD HARMONY

Glory and honour and worship be unto Thee, 0 Lord Christ,

Thou who art the Life and Light of all mankind!

Thou art the King of Glory

To whom all the peoples of the Earth should give joyful allegiance and service.
\
Inspire mankind with a realisation of true Brotherhood.
\
Teach us the wisdom of peace, harmony and co-operation.

Breathe into our hearts the understanding that only as we see ourselves—

As parts of the one body of humanity—

Can peace, harmony, success and plenty descend upon us.

Help us to conquer all manifestations

Of inharmony and evil in ourselves and in the world.

Bless us all with the Radiance of Thy Divine Love and Wisdom

That we may ever worship Thee in the beauty of holiness.

In the Name of the Living Christ, we ask it.

Amen

As the physical sun

Disappears from our sight,

May the Spiritual Sun

Arise in our hearts,

Illumine our minds,

And shed its radiant blessing

Upon all we contact.

Help us in the development of truth

Father, we come before Thee as the creator

and sustainer of Thy divine providence.

Help us, O Lord,

and be with us in the darkest hour of our life.

Help us to roll back the sepulchre stone

which hides us from the true light.

Help us in the development of truth.

Help us in the discharge of our duties.

Teach us charity and love.

Give us grace to conquer every obstacle in life.

Shed Thy love upon us

until we feel that all men are of one brotherhood.


Help Thy servant to remove the dark banner of bigotry,

which is now hanging over mankind.

Grant for the sake of each one present 

a knowledge of the angelic hosts

which now circle around them.

Amen

I can change

I can change.  I can live out my imagination instead of my memory.  I can tie myself to my limitless potential instead of my limiting past.
