Are you feeling stuck in your spiritual practice?
Do your prayers feel like they’re going unanswered—like they’re falling on deaf ears?
You’re not alone.
Many people feel frustrated with prayer because they’ve never been taught a method that truly aligns with God’s nature—and with their own divine identity. If you’re praying from fear, desperation, or doubt, your energy can actually keep you stuck.
But there’s a way to pray that brings more peace, power, and purpose. It’s called affirmative prayer.
What Is Affirmative Prayer?
Affirmative prayer is a confident, faith-based way to speak with God—not from fear or pleading, but from trust and truth.
As you grow spiritually, your relationship with God matures. You no longer have to beg or plead. You approach Him as a loving, generous Father who delights in giving you good things. Affirmative prayer combines the power of your words with the truth of God’s promises.
Rather than coming from desperation, you use positive language, grounded in faith, to affirm the truth of what God already desires for your life.
“What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.”
— Mark 11:24
This is not a new concept. It’s the way Jesus taught us to pray—believing, not begging.
Why Traditional Prayers Can Keep You Stuck
When you pray from fear, you’re often reinforcing what you don’t want. For example:
- “God, please help me…”
- “Can you fix this?”
- “Why won’t you hear me?”
These types of prayers focus your energy on lack and uncertainty. While heartfelt, they often come from a place of spiritual immaturity—where we forget who we are and who God is.
But God has made it clear: He wants to bless you. He invites you to pray with belief in His goodness.
“If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the Heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”
— Luke 11:13
When you shift into affirmative prayer, you’re aligning with God’s nature—and trusting His promises.
3 Steps to Practice Affirmative Prayer
Here are three simple steps to help you start using affirmative prayer in your life right away.
1. Believe and Open
God tells us to ask—and to ask with belief.
“You do not have, because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions.”
— James 4:2-3
God isn’t withholding blessings from you. But He does invite you to come with the right heart—one that’s open, humble, and aligned with His will.
Affirmative prayer begins by opening your heart and believing that you are worthy of receiving. Here’s an example you can speak out loud:
“As a child of God, I am open to receiving the good things my Father has for me. I trust in His perfect timing and generous nature.”
When you pray like this, your energy shifts. You’re no longer pleading—you’re receiving.
2. Change Your Language
Words have power.
Are your prayers filled with anxiety and neediness? Do you say things like, “Please heal me,” or “Can you help me?”
That energy keeps you focused on what’s missing. Instead, speak as though the healing is already underway—because spiritually, it is.
“Thank you for my healthy body. Thank you, God, for blessing me with strength, peace, and restoration. I am grateful for the healing that is already happening in me.”
When you pray with gratitude and belief, you tap into a different level of faith. You’re not trying to convince God—you’re trusting Him.
Even if the answer doesn’t come right away, you remain at peace, knowing it’s in His hands.
3. Use Affirmative Words and Let It Go
Affirmative prayer ends with release. Once you’ve spoken it, let it go.
Don’t circle back in worry or doubt. That only invites fear back in. Trust that God heard you, and that He is already moving.
You can close your prayer with:
“So be it.”
“And so it is.”
Or simply, “Amen,” which means “let it be.”
Holding on too tightly or obsessing over the outcome is another form of disbelief. Faith allows you to surrender—knowing God’s way is always best.

Affirmative Prayer Is an Act of Deep Faith
All throughout scripture, we see examples of people whose belief made space for miracles.
- Peter walked on water when he believed Jesus would support him.
- The woman who touched Jesus’ cloak was healed because she believed.
- Jesus praised people who approached Him with faith—not fear.
God still moves today. And He delights in faith.
When you use affirmative prayer, you’re not trying to get things from God. You’re aligning with His truth and trusting His timing.
“Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”
— Hebrews 11:1
Affirmative Prayer Helps You Live From a Place of Peace
This kind of prayer isn’t just about receiving. It’s about transforming how you live.
When you align your words with God’s truth, you’ll feel more peace, more gratitude, and more joy. And that energy affects how you show up in the world—your relationships, your work, and your spiritual practice.
You begin to walk in trust, not fear.
