      Chapter 1
      Prayer
     

      For verily I say unto you,
      That whosoever shall say unto this mountain,
      Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea;
      and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that
      those things which he saith shall come to pass;
      he shall have whatsoever he saith.
      Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire
      when ye pray, believe that ye receive them,
      and ye shall have them. 1

     Your Father knoweth what things ye have need of,
      before ye ask Him.--Christ Jesus. 2

   1       The prayer that reforms the sinner and heals the
      sick is an absolute faith that all things are
   3  possible to God,--a spiritual understanding of Him,
      an unselfed love. Regardless of what another may say
      or think on this subject, I speak from experience.
   6  Prayer, watching, and working, combined with self-im-
      molation, are God's gracious means for accomplishing
      whatever has been successfully done for the Christian-
   9  ization and health of mankind.
          Thoughts unspoken are not unknown to the divine
      Mind. Desire is prayer; and no loss can occur from
  12 trusting God with our desires, that they may be
      moulded and exalted before they take form in words
      and in deeds.
