The First Secret of Answered Prayer – September 3, 2017

At the Science of Mind Spiritual Center Los Angeles, you will hear relevant messages, by Rev. Pam MacGregor, that you can apply to everyday life.

I’m quite sure that, like myself, you’ve directed an abundance of prayerful energy into Laws governing the universe! This month I’ve had some extra assistance from a book I read—The Prayer Chest, a novel co-authored by New Thought ministers August Gold and Joel Fotinos. I became inspired to base this month’s theme—The Secrets of Answered Prayer—upon their book, because I found it so supportive in deepening my prayer practice.

Now of course those of us who have read the Science of Mind textbook by Dr. Ernest Holmes are familiar with the principles underlying spiritual mind treatment, and sometimes we may lose sight of some of the subtleties involved in answered prayer. So I offer you this month’s weekly topics as a means of rejuvenating and accelerating our spiritual practice of scientific, affirmative prayer.

The topic on September 3, 2017, was The First Secret of Answered Prayer. In the Science of Mind, Ernest Holmes instructs us to “Pray right and God cannot help responding.” The clue for unraveling the first secret is found in the word right, wherein he is describing praying in such a way that sets in motion the laws governing the universe. And Spirit never contradicts its own laws. The co-authors of The Prayer Chest caught on, so let the exploration and discovery begin!
