Prayer – The Art of Believing

Prayer: The Art of Believing is a book by Neville Goddard, first published in 1945. This concise work presents prayer not as rote ritual but as a disciplined art: a method for using imagination and feeling to bring inner intention into outer reality.

Goddard frames prayer as an active, creative process rooted in the subconscious and shows how faith, when combined with controlled reverie, becomes the practical engine of manifestation. Across short, focused chapters, the book lays out key principles — including the law of reversibility, the dual nature of consciousness, and techniques for directing imagination — that make prayer an applied technique rather than a mere hope.

Neville’s language is plain and direct; he emphasizes feeling “the end” as already achieved and teaches simple mental exercises to train the subconscious toward acceptance. Practical and compact, Prayer: The Art of Believing is ideal for readers seeking a no-nonsense guide to faith-based manifestation.
