The Lords Prayer Points

This particular prayer secret will now be the first of several that will get you into the real heart of directly praying to God the Father.

This particular prayer secret is coming off two very simple, but extremely powerful verses back in the Old Testament. When I first saw the three specific phrases that were in the middle of these two verses, I saw major prayer secret written all over it.

I believe that God the Father is giving all of us a major revelation with the three key phrases that He has in these two verses.

The three key phrases in these two verses are that we can approach God to “reason together” with Him, that we can “state our case” before Him, and that we can “contend together” with Him.

Think of the implication of these three statements – that the one and only all-powerful and all-knowing God of this entire universe is willing and open to listen to our reasons, to our contentions, and to our cases if they are properly brought and presented before Him!

Here are the two specific verses giving us this very profound revelation from the Lord:

“Come now and let us reason together,” says the Lord, “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow …” (Isaiah 1:18)“

I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake: And I will not remember your sins. Put Me in remembrance; let us contend together; state your case, that you may be acquitted.” (Isaiah 43:25)

Though both of these verses are talking about being able to get forgiveness for our sins before the Lord – I believe that The Lord is giving all of us a major revelation with these three key phrases.

If we can approach God to state our cases before Him, and to try and reason and contend with Him on the matter of some our own personal sins – then I believe we can also take this same principle and apply it in our own personal prayer life with Him.

I believe God the Father is giving all of us an open invitation to enter into intimate dialogue with Him with the way that He has worded these two verses.

These three key phrases are telling us that God, at times, will want to hear what we have to think about a matter. He will want to hear our thoughts, and He will want us to fully express our feelings to Him about any specific matter or topic we may want to discuss with Him.

If God is all-knowing and already knows what we are going to think before we even think it – why would He even want us to go through the process of talking with Him and voicing our opinions about certain matters?

If He already knows what we will need before we will even need it – why would God even want us praying to Him in the first place?

Why doesn’t God just rely on His perfect knowledge on all things and just give us what we will need without us ever having to ask for it?

I believe the answer to this question is only one possible answer. And that one answer is because God wants more than anything else that we enter in and attempt to establish a one-on-one, intimate, personal relationship with Him.

Good, personal, free-flowing dialogue and conversation is the lifeblood of any good, personal relationship between two friends or two spouses.

Nothing will shut a marriage or a good friendship down faster than if one or both of the parties start to pull back on the good, personal conversations and communication they used to have.

Just as good, personal, free-flowing conversation is the lifeblood in our own personal human relationships – this same principle also applies and carries over to our own personal relationship with the Lord.

This is why God has these three specific phrases mentioned in the above two verses. God the Father is giving all of us a major clue and revelation in that He is open and willing to have personal, two-way dialogue and conversation with each one of us.

God the Father wants you to be available 24/7 for intimate prayer and dialogue with Him – not just one time a week in a two hour Church service.

God wants you to be able to talk and dialogue with Him with the same amount of frequency and with the same amount intensity as you would with your best friend.

Except with God, He wants to become your best Friend, over and above any of other best friends you may have in this life.

God has to become #1 in your life. He will not settle for a #2 position next to your family and friends. The Bible tells us that God the Father has a consuming type of fire love for all of us, and He is very possessive and jealous over every single one of us with this kind of intense and passionate love.

With the above revelation telling us that we are free to boldly approach God’s throne and not to be afraid to state our cases and contentions before Him, and not to be afraid to try and reason with Him over certain issues and topics in our lives – what this now does is open up a whole new realm of possibilities in your prayer life with God the Father if you were never aware of this possibility before.

Once you have decided that you have a certain prayer request that you would like to present before God the Father – the first thing you should decide is how strong you need to go in stating your case before Him.

If your prayer request is something very simple, you do not need to get all worked up. Just ask God once or twice and then have faith that He will answer the prayer request if it is in His will for your life.

However, where this principle will really come into play is when you have a request that is on the more medium to heavier side. A perfect example of something on the heavier side is when you may be praying for someone who may be dying of cancer. This principle will really come into play on this type of emergency situation.

An analogy that I can give you that will show you how effective this kind of reasoning and contending can be with the Lord is with our criminal and civil court systems.

In many civil and criminal trials, cases are sometimes won on the closing arguments from either the prosecuting attorney or the defense attorney.

When each side gives their closing arguments before a jury, each attorney will properly summarize the facts of their case, and then they will try and tell the jury why they should find in their client’s favor.

What they are doing with the jury is stating their cases before them, and then trying to reason with them to try and get them to rule in their client’s favor. They are trying to persuade the jury that they have the stronger case, and they are giving them their exact reasons as to why they should see things from their point of view.

I believe we can sometimes take this same kind of approach in our prayer life with God the Father in the court of Heaven, depending on what we are asking Him for.

You obviously have to know when you can go into this kind of mode with God the Father. This is where the Holy Spirit will be helping you out. You will have to learn through trial and error when to take this kind of heavier approach with God the Father.

You will need to properly analyze each one of your prayer requests and decide if you need to go into this kind of heavier mode with the Lord.

If you have something that you are really wanting from the Lord, or if your prayer request is on that heavier side and you have a good release from the Holy Spirit to be approaching God with these kinds of arguments and contentions – then I would go ahead and give it a try and see what happens.

You will have nothing to lose in trying to incorporate this powerful, prayer principle into your personal prayer life with the Lord from time to time, depending on exactly what it is you are asking Him for. It just may be the key to help turn the tide to get more of your personal prayers answered with Him.

One of the things I felt like the Holy Spirit has conveyed to me in reference to being able to get God to answer more of your prayers, is that you have to somehow create a desire in God to want to answer your prayer in the first place.

And one of the ways that you can create a strong desire in God to want to answer more of your personal prayers is to give Him all of your personal reasons and contentions as to why He should consider answering them in the first place.

As the above two verses are trying to tell us – God wants to hear your arguments, your reasons, and your contentions as to why He should answer your prayer.

If you can learn to go into this kind of mode with the Lord when the situation dictates taking this kind approach with Him – not only will you possibly be able to get more of your personal prayers answered by Him – but you will also find yourself becoming much more closer to the Lord in your own personal relationship with Him.

The reason for this is because you will start to see and feel that God really does care for you, and that He really does want to have personal, two-way dialogue and conversation with you.

You will learn that you can fully trust Him and that He will always treat you fairly, honestly, and justly.

Now I want to give you two good examples of where this particular prayer secret was put into actual operation – and in both of these cases this principle completely turned the tide and got God to move to answer the prayers that were being presented to Him.

Moses Goes Into the Gap

The first testimony is from the Story of Moses. Moses personally did one of the most amazing things in all of the Old Testament – he got God to change His mind from what His original intentions were going to be!

When Moses was up on Mount Sinai for 40 days and 40 nights with God the Father getting the 10 commandments and many of the other basic laws and commandments that God was wanting His people to live by, the children of Israel were down at the bottom of the mountain making a false idol by way of a golden calf.

When God sees this, He becomes so furious that He is literally wanting to consume all of the Israelites right there on the spot. However, when Moses sees how angry God is getting and what God is wanting to do to these people, Moses immediately steps into the gap for his people and begins trying to reason and plead with God as to why He should  not kill them.

Here is the verse that will tell you word-for-word exactly what Moses said to God to help Him to stop what His original intentions were going to be:

Then Moses pleaded with the Lord his God, and said: “Lord, why does Your wrath burn hot against Your people whom You have brought out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand?

Why should the Egyptians speak, and say, ‘He brought them out to harm them, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth?’

Turn from Your fierce wrath, and relent from this harm to Your people. Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, Your servants, to whom You swore by Your own self, and said to them, ‘I will multiply your descendants as the stars of heaven; and all this land that I have spoken of I give to your descendants, and they shall inherit it forever.’ So the Lord relented from the harm which He said He would do to His people. (Exodus 32:11-14)

Notice what Moses does before the Lord. Instead of just asking the Lord to change His mind and not kill the Israelites for what they were doing at the bottom of that mountain – he goes one step further and starts to give God his specific reasons and contentions as to why He should not do it.

Notice this verse actually starts out with the words that Moses “pleaded with the Lord.” In other words, he was properly pleading his case before the Lord by giving Him his main reasons and contentions as to why He should consider remembering His promise to Abraham.

And then notice what happens next. Not only is God willing to hear what Moses has to say about the matter – but then He actually “relents,”, and then answers Moses’ petition.

And all of this was accomplished because Moses properly stated his case before God based on His Will and words of promise given to their forefathers  and gave God several good reasons as to why He should not kill any of the Israelites.

This is a perfect and classic example of someone who put all of the above revelation in actual operation with the Lord and was thus able to save quite a few people’s lives that day as a result.

Again, you have to know when you can go into this kind of mode with God the Father. But just realize that this is a possible option, and that at times, it can be a very powerful and persuasive option with the Lord.

I will leave you with one last thought on this particular prayer secret. The  Bible tells us that God the Father is no respecter of persons.

There are also several other verses from Scripture that tell us that God will be showing no partiality or favoritism towards any man or any woman that He has ever created. What this means is that we are all on an equal footing with the Lord and we all have an equal standing with Him.

If God is no respecter of any persons – then God will be giving you the same amount of time, care, and attention that He would be willing to give to anyone else – and this will also be including in your own personal prayer life with Him.

You thus have just as much of a chance to get some of your own personal prayers answered with Him as anyone else would.

So the next time you have a prayer request that may be on the more heavy side, or if it is something that you are really wanting and desiring from the Lord – try drawing up your own specific reasons and contentions based om His word as to why God should grant your request.

If you have to, do not be afraid to write all of it out on a piece of paper, and then read it back before the Lord if you think you won’t be able to recall all of the reasons once you start the prayer up with Him.

You already know that God has the full power to grant your specific prayer request. The secret then is to be able to create enough of a desire in God by reminding Him of His promises to want to answer your prayer request.

If God did it for Moses with the way Moses so passionately pleaded his case before Him with the rebellious children of Israel – then God can also do the same thing for you since the Bible tells us that He is no respecter of persons!

Once again, here are the three key phrases. Burn these three key phrases into your memory banks – as they could be the keys that could help turn the tide for you in getting God to answer more of your special prayer requests.

State your case

Let us reason together

Let us contend together

Just as a good defense attorney can possibly win a case with a good, convincing, closing argument before a jury – so can you if you have good enough reasons and contentions to present before the Lord on whatever it is you are asking Him for.

The annihilation of a people, in this case the unborn shouldn’t tolerated, accepted and be kept silence whilst God’s perfect Will, answers to prayers in a form of a seed, a fetus, a baby, a human being is terminated, broken piece by piece by wicked powers and men in high places, foolish and ignorant majority and godless people who are hell burnt in destroying all things good. We must rally about against this holocaust, inform the uninformed and the misinformed, educate the vulnerable and offer support in prayer, deeds to help victims of this sacrilege and deliver our children from vampire, cannibalistic spirits, spirit of molech and baal and eaters of flesh and drinkers of blood. Did you know the remains of these aborted babies are sold in black markets and concealed on menus in some restaurant in America? Pray WARRIORS and education victims who are ignorant! Could it be that you were born and are alive for such a time as this?

The people who know their God will display strength and take action. – Daniel 11:32b

1. God is good all the time. Let’s begin by simply worshipping and adoring our Lord
Jesus who is the Author and Giver of Life! He is worthy of all honor, glory, praise, and
blessing.

Spend some time in praise and thanksgiving to the One Who has given you life and purpose. Recall all the wonderful ways that God has shown His love to you throughout your life.

Thank Him for His faithfulness, His&truth, His wisdom, His goodness, His mercy, and His grace. Sing a song of praise in your heart or aloud.
*I will extol the Lord at all times; His praise will always be on my lips. – Psalm 34:1
O magnify the Lord with me; let us exalt His Name together. – Psalm  34:3
Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; be thankful unto Him and
bless His Name. – Psalm 100:4-5

2. Thank God for this time You have with Him. Use these brief moments to recognize what
an awesome blessing the gift of life is. Consider that humans are made in the image of God. Reflect on the value of each life in the womb.

3. Thank God that He has chosen you for such a time as this. Praise Him for placing you
right where you are and making you useful to Him. Praise Him for never giving up on you!  Praise Him for helping you to pray for those who may have given up.

4. Thank God that the battle belongs to Him and so does the victory. Praise Him for being
with us each and every step of the way to the closing of all abortion clinics and overturning Roe vs Wade. Thank Him for hearing the many thousands of prayers spoken ahead of today. Bless Him for the powerful answers He provides in ways seen and unseen.

5. Thank God for the opportunity and the privilege of prayer. Think about the awesome
blessing of being able to spend time in fellowship with the Creator of the universe.
Ask God to guide your prayers for others as you commit them to Him. I exhort
therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and
peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. – I Timothy 2:1-2

6. Pray for every woman especially in America who at this very moment is considering an
abortion. Consider her emotions  fear, anxiety, maybe even contempt or indifference and pray that the Holy Spirit would minister to her, teaching her to recognize, respect, and love the “personhood” of her unborn child. Pray that she would receive from God the courage she needs to carry and deliver her baby. If you know someone personally in this situation, please mention her to our Lord by name!

7. Pray that the families, friends, and churches of those who choose to carry their babies
would support their decision to give birth. Especially pray for the fathers of these babies, that they would love and support their child.

8. Pray that adoption agencies would be successful in finding loving families for babies
that are placed in their care.  This is a very pro*life issue! We don’t just want to see the
babies born, we want to see them loved and nurtured as well!

9. Pray for “inner conversion” of those who perform abortions in our community and
those who assist them. Doctors, nurses all abortion clinic workers.

10. Pray for all those in America who support, urge, and rally for abortion especially for those who profess faith in Christ. Pray for doctors who refer their patients to the plan parenthood clinics for abortions. Pray that the Holy Spirit would move them in such a way that they would realize the great detriment of the “culture of death” that they are promoting

11. Pray for the woman whose heart is aching because she has had an abortion, no matter
how long ago it occurred. Pray that God will put people in her path who will help her to
heal emotionally and spiritually.

12. Pray for America and Christians to keep open doors and hearts to those who have had abortions. Pray that our local churches would be beacons of forgiveness, hope
and healing to those who regret their decision to abort their child.

13. Pray for all those fighting abortion at any level in society. Pray for God to protect them
against all evil, and grant them strength and courage to prevail.

14. Pray for all pro*life ministries, asking God to supply all their needs and to inspire them
with ideas of how to appropriate His ways in the fight against abortion.

15. Pray that the men and women in legislative authority would actively present and pass
laws that respect all human life from conception to natural death.

16. Pray that the right of conscience would always be protected for all medical personnel.

17. Pray for our society that we will come to an understanding of God’s design for life,
especially the family unit, respecting and upholding His law above our own desires. Pray that all marriages would be open to life.

18. Pray for the pastors and priests of our churches that they would receive inspiration and strength from the Holy Spirit to remain steadfast in their convictions against the murder of innocent unborn children. Give them the boldness to clearly express their stand for life and to urge church members to do the same.

19. Pray for those who go to Washington to protest, to witness and pray, asking for
their protection and for the love of God to shine through them.

20. Pray for those who do sidewalk counseling asking God to give them the Holy Spirit*
inspired words to speak to each person entering the abortion clinics.

21. Pray for all those who do business with this abortion facility, asking God to help them
understand the financial support they are providing to those who end precious lives.

22. Pray for repentance on behalf of America that has allowed this legalized murder for so
long. Ask God to change hearts and minds.

23. Pray that God will give you strength and boldness to be a voice for the “Gospel of Life” at every opportunity. Ask God to help you be still and to hear His voice letting you know in
what ways He wants you to be involved with the prolife movement.

24. Pray for the children of America, that we would help them to learn the value of life and
involve them in protecting it.

25. Pray for our youth, that a new generation of those who value what God values would be
trained and dedicated to defend the unborn.

26. Pray for the unification of the citizens in all 50 states standing for an end to abortion in America.

27. Pray for those who have never pray and speak against abortion. Ask God to help them
receive His courage to stand in defense of those who have no voice.

28. Pray in the spirit and allow Holy Spirit to continue for 10mins.

29. Now praise God the Author and Creator of all life. He is worthy of all honor, glory, praise, and blessing. May His Name be glorified forever.

30. Let your heart sing of the goodness of God. Thank Him for the time you have spent in His presence. Receive the blessings of having communed with Him.
Thank you for your commitment to praying for these life issues.
The effectual, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. – James 5:16

Prayer Secret #1 – establishing a good personal relationship with the Lord will get you into the door with Him so that He will now be willing to hear your prayers.

Prayer Secret #2 – making sure that your prayers always line up with His perfect will for you and your life will dramatically increase the chances of God actually answering any of your personal prayers.

This will now lead us right into Prayer Secret #3.

Before I start to go into some of the more heavier aspects of actually moving into prayer with the Lord – there is one more secret that I must first talk about.

If you are not fully aware of this next prayer secret, and you are not abiding by it – then there is a very good chance that God is not even going to listen to what you have to say, much less even consider answering any of your specific prayers.

The verses I will list in this article are all very straight forward and need no fancy interpretation. They mean exactly what they are saying.

These particular verses are telling us that God will not be hearing the prayers of someone who is not keeping His commandments – of someone who is not living a righteous life in His eyes.

Granted, we have all been made perfectly righteous before the eyes of God the Father as a result of Jesus Christ dying on the cross for all of our sins. The righteousness of Jesus has now been imputed to us.

However, this does not give us the license and the right to keep on sinning. Though we have all been made perfectly righteous before the eyes of God as a result of what Jesus did for us on the cross, we still have to make every effort on our end to try and live a good and righteous life and stay out of any unacceptable sins in the eyes of God the Father.

This particular prayer secret is a major reason why some Christians are not having much success in their prayer room with God the Father.

As you will see in the verse, the Bible is telling all of us loud and clear that our slates have got to be fairly clean before God is going to work with us in His prayer room.

However, please note this does not mean you have to be totally perfect. We all have our rough edges, our character flaws and faults, and our little vices that we have a hard time in getting any victory over.

I believe there is a certain amount of slack with the Lord for some of our imperfections, frailties, and weaknesses. None of us will ever become the fourth person of the Holy Trinity. This is why Jesus had to come and die for all of us – due to the sin nature that we were all born into this world with that constantly keeps getting us into trouble.

God the Father wants to start the process of sanctifying us in this life us once we become saved and born again.

But this sanctification process is a progressive and constantly ongoing process that will go on for rest of our lives. As a result, we always have to continue to keep working with the Lord on allowing Him to mold, shape, and transform us into a better and more holy people.

As you continue to grow in this sanctification process where God the Father is now slowly starting to form and mold you into the express image of His Son Jesus Christ – you will find one main thing that will start to occur with the Lord – and that one main thing is that you will start to see the boundary lines that God will set up for you and your life.

These boundary lines are lines being drawn in the sand by the Lord of where you can go in this life and where you cannot go – what you can do and what you cannot do.

God will make it very clear to you through the convictions of the Holy Spirit as to how far you can go with Him on certain issues. And this is where you really have to stay on top of your game with the Lord if you want to keep everything running and flowing smoothly if you are walking in God’s perfect plan and destiny for your life.

These next set of verses are telling us the following:

.That the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man will avail much
.That God will answer our prayers if we are keeping His commandments
.That God will hear and answer the prayers of the righteousBut that God will not hear or answer the prayers of those who are not obeying His commandments

One of the verses I will list below is very extreme and intense. This verse says that your sins and iniquities will literally separate you from God, and that He will hide His face from you and not even hear your prayers and petitions.

Though Jesus has already died on the cross for all of our sins – we cannot use this as an excuse to go back into areas that we know God does not want us treading into.

Perfect examples of some areas where Christians can really get themselves into major trouble with the Lord are adultery, using drugs, abusing alcohol, verbally and/or physically abusing their children or their spouses, holding any type of major unforgiveness towards others, and stealing or scamming from others.

The Lord will let you know loud and clear how far you can push some things with Him. And once you cross that boundary line in complete and total disobedience, then you have just taken yourself right out of His prayer arena and have dramatically reduced the chances of getting any of your personal prayer needs met or answered by Him.

So before you decide to get really serious with the Lord in your own personal prayer life with Him, make sure that you do not have any blocks or hindrances in your walk with Him that would keep Him from wanting to work with you.

If you do not, and you have certain sins or transgressions that have not been properly dealt with, then you will be wasting both His time and your time by even continuing to try and pray in the first place.

If you really want to get serious with the Lord in your own personal prayer life, study these next set of verses very, very carefully and ask the Holy Spirit to show you if you have any personal areas that have to be dealt with so that you do not have anything that would prevent God the Father from wanting to work with you.

If you do have any blocks, hindrances, sins, transgressions, or iniquities operating in your life that are unacceptable in the eyes of God – and then you get those sins and transgressions properly dealt with and removed with the help of the Holy Spirit – then you will have just opened up a major door to the throne room of God Almighty Himself – and He will now be willing to listen to any specific requests or petitions that you may have.

Many Christians have made major advances and breakthroughs in their prayer life with God the Father once they were taught this basic 101 principle.

I will go ahead and list each one of the verses under the appropriate captions below so that you can see exactly what God the Father is trying to tell you with the way that He has worded some of these particular verses.

1. God Will Hear the Prayers of the Righteous

These first four verses are major. The first verse I will list below is only one sentence long, but it perfectly drives home the point on this topic. It simply says that God the Father will “hear the prayers of the righteous” – but that He is “far from the wicked.”

The second verse then really confirms the wording of the first verse when it says that the “eyes of the Lord are on the righteous” and that “His ears are open to their prayers.” It then once more ends stating that the “face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”

The third verse specifically says that God the Father will answer our prayers “because” we are willing to keep His commandments. In other words, God will answer your prayers if you are keeping His commandments.

This verse also makes the statement that we have to do what is “pleasing in the sight of the Lord.” If you are doing anything that is not pleasing to Him, then again, it could prevent you from getting more of your personal prayers answered by Him.

Here are four major, powerful, foundational verses that you will need to ground on if you want to have any kind of major success in your prayer life with God the Father.

“The Lord is far from the wicked, but He hears the prayer of the righteous.” (Proverbs 15:29)

“Let him turn away from evil and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it. For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their prayers; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.” (1 Peter 3:11)

“And whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His sight.” (1 John 3:22)

“The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” (James 5:16)

Notice the last verse says that the effective, fervent prayer of a “righteous” man will avail much.

Put all four of these verses together and the message is coming through loud and clear. If you want to have any chance of having any kind of an effective and powerful prayer life with God the Father, then you are going to have to be willing to stay out of any sins or bad activities that you know will not be pleasing to Him, or that you know will be going against any of His basic laws and commandments on how we are to live in this life just as Jesus modelled for us while on earth.

You are going to have to make every effort on your end to stay on the righteous side of the fence in your walk with the Lord and to stay away from any areas that you know will be unacceptable in His sight.

2. Your Iniquities Will Separate You From God

I have always found this next verse to be one of the more heavier verses on the consequences of continuing to live in major sin after you get to know your Lord and Savior. Even though this first verse I will list is from the Old Testament, I believe the specific wording in this verse also applies to all New Testament Christians.

Though God can now fully forgive all of your sins as a result of Jesus dying on the cross for all of us – this does not give you the right to keep on sinning – especially if you know that what you are doing is a direct sin against God to begin with.

This next verse will tell us that our iniquities, if they are bad enough, can literally “separate us”from God. This verse then makes the very intense statement that God will hide His face from us and that He will not even hear us if we try and speak to Him.

This is about as graphic of a warning that we can possibly receive from the Lord if any of us is wallowing and walking in any heavy sin areas, and then we try to approach Him to answer any of our personal prayers.

The second verse then says that he who turns his ear away from hearing and obeying any of God’s laws, that even his prayers will be considered an abomination before the eyes of God.

So not only will God turn His back on you and refuse to hear anything you may want to say to Him, but He will now consider any of your prayer requests to be an abomination in His sight if you are asking Him for something – and then at the same time you are continuing to walk and live in some of the heavier type sins.

God will not be mocked! You cannot be out having multiple affairs on your spouse, verbally and/or physically abusing your spouse or your children, scamming others in your job, abusing alcohol, doing drugs – and then think that the Lord is going to turn a blind eye to all of this because His Son has already paid the price for your transgressions.

The Bible is emphatically clear. You can only receive God’s forgiveness for the sins you already know about only if you are willing to confess those sins out to begin with, and then repent and agree to make every possible effort not to go back into those sins.

The word “repent” means to be willing to turn away from those sins. It means to be willing to have a change of mind, a change of attitude, and a change of heart concerning those sins. It means to be willing to see that they are wrong in the eyes of God.

As a result of this separation that can occur between us and God, many of God’s children have lost contact with Him because they have refused to pull out of some of these heavier sins.

This is not to say that they have lost their eternal salvation with Him, but they are losing any chance of having Him work full force in their lives with what little time they still have left down here to accomplish anything worthwhile for Him.

These are two very strong verses. Here they are:

“But your iniquities have separated you from your God; and your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He will not hear.” (Isaiah 59:2)
“One who turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be an abomination.” (Proverbs 28:9)

These two verses perfectly line up with the verses mentioned in the first caption. Again, no fancy interpretation needed on these verses. They mean exactly what they are saying.

3. Holding Unforgiveness Towards Others

One very special area that God is really wanting all of us get a real grip on is holding any unforgiveness towards anyone who may have wronged us in this life. As you will see in the verse I will list below, it literally starts out with the words “And whenever you stand praying.”

From there, it goes on to state that we are to forgive anyone that we may have something against. And then it ends with the very dire warning that if we do not forgive those who have trespassed against us, then God will not forgive us our trespasses.

This verse is thus giving us two very solemn warnings. With the verse actually starting out with the words “And whenever you stand praying” – I believe that God is trying to tell all of us that we should not even bother to attempt to approach His throne room for prayer if we are holding any serious unforgiveness towards anyone else.

Here is the verse:

“And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses. But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses.” (Mark 11:25)

To those of you who may be having a hard time in connecting to the Lord in your prayer life, and you do not seem to be getting too many of your personal prayers answered with Him – ask the Holy Spirit to show you if you have any blocks or hindrances in your walk with the Lord that is affecting your personal prayer life with God the Father – especially in the area of unforgiveness.

If the Holy Spirit does show you that you have some areas of unforgiveness in your life that may need to be dealt with – work very closely with Him in getting those matters properly resolved with the Lord.

If you do not, you may continue to stay stuck and grounded in your prayer life with God the Father. And if you cannot get any of your personal prayers answered with the Lord, then you are not going to be able to continue to move much further ahead in your walk and destiny with Him.

Your prayer life is like the oil to the engine. Shut your prayer life down – and your whole engine in the Lord will bog or shut down.

4. Husbands – Honor Your Wives

This next verse is another very interesting verse. In this verse, God is telling all husbands to honor their wives and to dwell with them “with understanding” – and that if they do not, their prayers will be “hindered.”

In other words, God is telling all husbands to treat their wives in a godly manner, with love and proper respect and not to be running roughshod over them since they are considered the weaker vessel in this verse.

If you are not treating your wife with respect, love, kindness, and proper understanding – then God is telling you that you are going to have a very tough time with Him in the prayer room in being able to get Him to answer any of your prayers.

The fact that God is isolating this particular quality, along with the problem of holding any unforgiveness towards anyone else, is telling you how big of a deal these two issues really are with Him. The fact that He is going to shut down your prayer life with Him if you are in violation of these two basic principles is a very serious warning.

Here is the verse:

“Likewise you husbands, dwell with them with understanding, giving honor to the wife, as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, THAT YOUR PRAYERS MAY NOT BE HINDERED.” (1 Peter 3:7)

The Bible tells us that the husband is supposed to be the head of the household. If the husband is mistreating his wife, then God is not going to be hearing his prayers. And if the husband is not going to be able to get any of his prayers answered with the Lord, then the rest of the household could seriously suffer as a result.

There thus could be a serious domino effect that could occur in a household if the husband does not have his act together with his wife and with his God. Your prayer life is the lifeblood of your engine with the Lord. If that shuts down, your whole walk and forward momentum in the Lord could stall or completely shut down.

Husbands – make sure that your house is in order if you want to continue to propel forward at maximum speed and maximum power in your walk and call with the Lord. If you do not, God will personally shut you down until you can get your house back in order.

When you put all of the above verses together, you cannot help but see a major prayer secret. Though we have all been made perfectly righteous in the eyes of God as a result of Jesus dying on the cross for all of our sins – we still have to make every effort on our end to stay out of any serious sins and transgressions – especially the kind that we know will get us into major trouble with the Lord.

You simply cannot be doing drugs, abusing alcohol, cheating on your spouse, scamming and cheating others on your job, delving into areas of the occult, chasing after other false doctrines and religions – and then think that the Lord is simply going to turn a blind eye and let a lot of these matters go without you having to suffer the consequences of treading into territories that are expressly forbidden by Him.

You play – you pay – either in this life or the next!

There will always be serious consequences for entering into and engaging in sins that do not get confessed and forgiven under the blood of Jesus. And one of those severe consequences is having your personal prayer life get completely shut down with God the Father.

The Bible once again could not make things any more clear. God the Father will simply not be hearing any of your personal prayers or listening to anything you may have to say if you are not making some kind of concerted effort on your end to live a good and righteous life under the direction and guidance of the Holy Spirit.

For the most part, most Christians know how far they can push the envelope with God the Father. Through the convictions of the Holy Spirit, most Christians know where their boundary lines are set at with the Lord.

Tread past those boundary lines – and you could risk having God turn His face away from you and refuse to hear any of your prayers, petitions, or requests.

And if you cannot get God to answer any of your personal prayers in this life – then you have just taken yourself right off His playing field and you have now just been asked to sit on the bench in His dugout!

If any of you feel like your prayer life has stalled or has been stuck in neutral for quite some time with the Lord – try asking God to show you if there are any blocks or hindrances by way of any sins or transgressions that may need to be dealt with. Be sensitive to anything the Holy Spirit may want to bring up from your past.

Whatever the Lord may bring up for you that has to be dealt with – take each one of these problems and issues head on. If you do not, and you do not get these matters totally resolved with the Lord – then you will continue to stay stuck and grounded in your prayer life with Him.

And if your personal prayer life continues to stay stuck and grounded as a result of your refusal to pull out of certain sins and transgressions that He wants you to pull out of – then you will have just taken yourself right off His major league playing field and you will continue to stay seated on the bench in His dugout until you can agree to see and do things His way.

Some of God’s people right now are in major judgment with Him. When that happens, their calls and their walk with Him will get completely shut down until they can agree to repent and turn from the sins and transgressions they have been walking in.

These verses are giving you major revelation in an area where many Christians have got themselves into major trouble with the Lord.

I will end this with a word to the wise – God always knows best. Do things His way, and your life and walk with Him will become much easier.

Do things your way – and you will eventually end up becoming a train wreck just waiting to crash and burn. The choice is yours.

Matthew 21:12

Many Christians are suffering from ancestral burdens which hinders spiritual growth. This  is designed:

To help you obtain deliverance from foundational contamination and bondage.

To help you obtain freedom from ancestral yokes and burdens.

To clean up the unprofitable spiritual background militating against physical
and spiritual progress.

Jesus is always in the business of driving away all strange elements undertaking satanic and destructive transactions in the body, soul and spirit. He would do no less for you as you cry unto Him.

1 Pet 1:15-1 6: “But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.”

The Lord, knoweth them that are His! Are you a professor or a believer? Do you just claim to be a Christian, speak Christianity (‘Praise God’. ‘Hallelujah’. ‘Thank You Jesus’.) and go through the motions others around you are going through.
God cannot be mocked. The scripture says the Lord KNOWETH them that are His. Does God know you? The greatest hindrance to being known by God is iniquity. Iniquity separates from God. “Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot heal: But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that
he cannot hear (Isaiah 59: 1,2).

The Bible says we should depart from iniquity. Also Paul says “If a man will purge himself from there, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.”
Prayers for spiritual sanitation, are intended to purge us, from the things that separate us from God. As you pray these prayer points, the blessings of purging stated in 2 Timothy 2:21 will manifest in your life, and you will become
– a vessel of honour
– sanctified
– usable to God
– prepared unto every good work, a workman that needs not be ashamed

• CONFESSION
2 Tim. 2:21: If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto
honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.

Prayer Secret #1 – establishing a good personal relationship with the Lord will get you into the door with Him so that He will now be willing to hear your prayers.

Prayer Secret #2 – making sure that your prayers always line up with His perfect will for you and your life will dramatically increase the chances of God actually answering any of your personal prayers.

This will now lead us right into Prayer Secret #3.

Before I start to go into some of the more heavier aspects of actually moving into prayer with the Lord – there is one more secret that I must first talk about.

If you are not fully aware of this next prayer secret, and you are not abiding by it – then there is a very good chance that God is not even going to listen to what you have to say, much less even consider answering any of your specific prayers.

The verses I will list in this article are all very straight forward and need no fancy interpretation. They mean exactly what they are saying.

These particular verses are telling us that God will not be hearing the prayers of someone who is not keeping His commandments – of someone who is not living a righteous life in His eyes.

Granted, we have all been made perfectly righteous before the eyes of God the Father as a result of Jesus Christ dying on the cross for all of our sins. The righteousness of Jesus has now been imputed to us.

However, this does not give us the license and the right to keep on sinning. Though we have all been made perfectly righteous before the eyes of God as a result of what Jesus did for us on the cross, we still have to make every effort on our end to try and live a good and righteous life and stay out of any unacceptable sins in the eyes of God the Father.

This particular prayer secret is a major reason why some Christians are not having much success in their prayer room with God the Father.

As you will see in the verse, the Bible is telling all of us loud and clear that our slates have got to be fairly clean before God is going to work with us in His prayer room.

However, please note this does not mean you have to be totally perfect. We all have our rough edges, our character flaws and faults, and our little vices that we have a hard time in getting any victory over.

I believe there is a certain amount of slack with the Lord for some of our imperfections, frailties, and weaknesses. None of us will ever become the fourth person of the Holy Trinity. This is why Jesus had to come and die for all of us – due to the sin nature that we were all born into this world with that constantly keeps getting us into trouble.

God the Father wants to start the process of sanctifying us in this life us once we become saved and born again.

But this sanctification process is a progressive and constantly ongoing process that will go on for rest of our lives. As a result, we always have to continue to keep working with the Lord on allowing Him to mold, shape, and transform us into a better and more holy people.

As you continue to grow in this sanctification process where God the Father is now slowly starting to form and mold you into the express image of His Son Jesus Christ – you will find one main thing that will start to occur with the Lord – and that one main thing is that you will start to see the boundary lines that God will set up for you and your life.

These boundary lines are lines being drawn in the sand by the Lord of where you can go in this life and where you cannot go – what you can do and what you cannot do.

God will make it very clear to you through the convictions of the Holy Spirit as to how far you can go with Him on certain issues. And this is where you really have to stay on top of your game with the Lord if you want to keep everything running and flowing smoothly if you are walking in God’s perfect plan and destiny for your life.

These next set of verses are telling us the following:

.That the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man will avail much
.That God will answer our prayers if we are keeping His commandments
.That God will hear and answer the prayers of the righteousBut that God will not hear or answer the prayers of those who are not obeying His commandments

One of the verses I will list below is very extreme and intense. This verse says that your sins and iniquities will literally separate you from God, and that He will hide His face from you and not even hear your prayers and petitions.

Though Jesus has already died on the cross for all of our sins – we cannot use this as an excuse to go back into areas that we know God does not want us treading into.

Perfect examples of some areas where Christians can really get themselves into major trouble with the Lord are adultery, using drugs, abusing alcohol, verbally and/or physically abusing their children or their spouses, holding any type of major unforgiveness towards others, and stealing or scamming from others.

The Lord will let you know loud and clear how far you can push some things with Him. And once you cross that boundary line in complete and total disobedience, then you have just taken yourself right out of His prayer arena and have dramatically reduced the chances of getting any of your personal prayer needs met or answered by Him.

So before you decide to get really serious with the Lord in your own personal prayer life with Him, make sure that you do not have any blocks or hindrances in your walk with Him that would keep Him from wanting to work with you.

If you do not, and you have certain sins or transgressions that have not been properly dealt with, then you will be wasting both His time and your time by even continuing to try and pray in the first place.

If you really want to get serious with the Lord in your own personal prayer life, study these next set of verses very, very carefully and ask the Holy Spirit to show you if you have any personal areas that have to be dealt with so that you do not have anything that would prevent God the Father from wanting to work with you.

If you do have any blocks, hindrances, sins, transgressions, or iniquities operating in your life that are unacceptable in the eyes of God – and then you get those sins and transgressions properly dealt with and removed with the help of the Holy Spirit – then you will have just opened up a major door to the throne room of God Almighty Himself – and He will now be willing to listen to any specific requests or petitions that you may have.

Many Christians have made major advances and breakthroughs in their prayer life with God the Father once they were taught this basic 101 principle.

I will go ahead and list each one of the verses under the appropriate captions below so that you can see exactly what God the Father is trying to tell you with the way that He has worded some of these particular verses.

1. God Will Hear the Prayers of the Righteous

These first four verses are major. The first verse I will list below is only one sentence long, but it perfectly drives home the point on this topic. It simply says that God the Father will “hear the prayers of the righteous” – but that He is “far from the wicked.”

The second verse then really confirms the wording of the first verse when it says that the “eyes of the Lord are on the righteous” and that “His ears are open to their prayers.” It then once more ends stating that the “face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”

The third verse specifically says that God the Father will answer our prayers “because” we are willing to keep His commandments. In other words, God will answer your prayers if you are keeping His commandments.

This verse also makes the statement that we have to do what is “pleasing in the sight of the Lord.” If you are doing anything that is not pleasing to Him, then again, it could prevent you from getting more of your personal prayers answered by Him.

Here are four major, powerful, foundational verses that you will need to ground on if you want to have any kind of major success in your prayer life with God the Father.

“The Lord is far from the wicked, but He hears the prayer of the righteous.” (Proverbs 15:29)

“Let him turn away from evil and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it. For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their prayers; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.” (1 Peter 3:11)

“And whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do those things that are pleasing in His sight.” (1 John 3:22)

“The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” (James 5:16)

Notice the last verse says that the effective, fervent prayer of a “righteous” man will avail much.

Put all four of these verses together and the message is coming through loud and clear. If you want to have any chance of having any kind of an effective and powerful prayer life with God the Father, then you are going to have to be willing to stay out of any sins or bad activities that you know will not be pleasing to Him, or that you know will be going against any of His basic laws and commandments on how we are to live in this life just as Jesus modelled for us while on earth.

You are going to have to make every effort on your end to stay on the righteous side of the fence in your walk with the Lord and to stay away from any areas that you know will be unacceptable in His sight.

2. Your Iniquities Will Separate You From God

I have always found this next verse to be one of the more heavier verses on the consequences of continuing to live in major sin after you get to know your Lord and Savior. Even though this first verse I will list is from the Old Testament, I believe the specific wording in this verse also applies to all New Testament Christians.

Though God can now fully forgive all of your sins as a result of Jesus dying on the cross for all of us – this does not give you the right to keep on sinning – especially if you know that what you are doing is a direct sin against God to begin with.

This next verse will tell us that our iniquities, if they are bad enough, can literally “separate us”from God. This verse then makes the very intense statement that God will hide His face from us and that He will not even hear us if we try and speak to Him.

This is about as graphic of a warning that we can possibly receive from the Lord if any of us is wallowing and walking in any heavy sin areas, and then we try to approach Him to answer any of our personal prayers.

The second verse then says that he who turns his ear away from hearing and obeying any of God’s laws, that even his prayers will be considered an abomination before the eyes of God.

So not only will God turn His back on you and refuse to hear anything you may want to say to Him, but He will now consider any of your prayer requests to be an abomination in His sight if you are asking Him for something – and then at the same time you are continuing to walk and live in some of the heavier type sins.

God will not be mocked! You cannot be out having multiple affairs on your spouse, verbally and/or physically abusing your spouse or your children, scamming others in your job, abusing alcohol, doing drugs – and then think that the Lord is going to turn a blind eye to all of this because His Son has already paid the price for your transgressions.

The Bible is emphatically clear. You can only receive God’s forgiveness for the sins you already know about only if you are willing to confess those sins out to begin with, and then repent and agree to make every possible effort not to go back into those sins.

The word “repent” means to be willing to turn away from those sins. It means to be willing to have a change of mind, a change of attitude, and a change of heart concerning those sins. It means to be willing to see that they are wrong in the eyes of God.

As a result of this separation that can occur between us and God, many of God’s children have lost contact with Him because they have refused to pull out of some of these heavier sins.

This is not to say that they have lost their eternal salvation with Him, but they are losing any chance of having Him work full force in their lives with what little time they still have left down here to accomplish anything worthwhile for Him.

These are two very strong verses. Here they are:

“But your iniquities have separated you from your God; and your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He will not hear.” (Isaiah 59:2)
“One who turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be an abomination.” (Proverbs 28:9)

These two verses perfectly line up with the verses mentioned in the first caption. Again, no fancy interpretation needed on these verses. They mean exactly what they are saying.

3. Holding Unforgiveness Towards Others

One very special area that God is really wanting all of us get a real grip on is holding any unforgiveness towards anyone who may have wronged us in this life. As you will see in the verse I will list below, it literally starts out with the words “And whenever you stand praying.”

From there, it goes on to state that we are to forgive anyone that we may have something against. And then it ends with the very dire warning that if we do not forgive those who have trespassed against us, then God will not forgive us our trespasses.

This verse is thus giving us two very solemn warnings. With the verse actually starting out with the words “And whenever you stand praying” – I believe that God is trying to tell all of us that we should not even bother to attempt to approach His throne room for prayer if we are holding any serious unforgiveness towards anyone else.

Here is the verse:

“And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses. But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses.” (Mark 11:25)

To those of you who may be having a hard time in connecting to the Lord in your prayer life, and you do not seem to be getting too many of your personal prayers answered with Him – ask the Holy Spirit to show you if you have any blocks or hindrances in your walk with the Lord that is affecting your personal prayer life with God the Father – especially in the area of unforgiveness.

If the Holy Spirit does show you that you have some areas of unforgiveness in your life that may need to be dealt with – work very closely with Him in getting those matters properly resolved with the Lord.

If you do not, you may continue to stay stuck and grounded in your prayer life with God the Father. And if you cannot get any of your personal prayers answered with the Lord, then you are not going to be able to continue to move much further ahead in your walk and destiny with Him.

Your prayer life is like the oil to the engine. Shut your prayer life down – and your whole engine in the Lord will bog or shut down.

4. Husbands – Honor Your Wives

This next verse is another very interesting verse. In this verse, God is telling all husbands to honor their wives and to dwell with them “with understanding” – and that if they do not, their prayers will be “hindered.”

In other words, God is telling all husbands to treat their wives in a godly manner, with love and proper respect and not to be running roughshod over them since they are considered the weaker vessel in this verse.

If you are not treating your wife with respect, love, kindness, and proper understanding – then God is telling you that you are going to have a very tough time with Him in the prayer room in being able to get Him to answer any of your prayers.

The fact that God is isolating this particular quality, along with the problem of holding any unforgiveness towards anyone else, is telling you how big of a deal these two issues really are with Him. The fact that He is going to shut down your prayer life with Him if you are in violation of these two basic principles is a very serious warning.

Here is the verse:

“Likewise you husbands, dwell with them with understanding, giving honor to the wife, as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, THAT YOUR PRAYERS MAY NOT BE HINDERED.” (1 Peter 3:7)

The Bible tells us that the husband is supposed to be the head of the household. If the husband is mistreating his wife, then God is not going to be hearing his prayers. And if the husband is not going to be able to get any of his prayers answered with the Lord, then the rest of the household could seriously suffer as a result.

There thus could be a serious domino effect that could occur in a household if the husband does not have his act together with his wife and with his God. Your prayer life is the lifeblood of your engine with the Lord. If that shuts down, your whole walk and forward momentum in the Lord could stall or completely shut down.

Husbands – make sure that your house is in order if you want to continue to propel forward at maximum speed and maximum power in your walk and call with the Lord. If you do not, God will personally shut you down until you can get your house back in order.

When you put all of the above verses together, you cannot help but see a major prayer secret. Though we have all been made perfectly righteous in the eyes of God as a result of Jesus dying on the cross for all of our sins – we still have to make every effort on our end to stay out of any serious sins and transgressions – especially the kind that we know will get us into major trouble with the Lord.

You simply cannot be doing drugs, abusing alcohol, cheating on your spouse, scamming and cheating others on your job, delving into areas of the occult, chasing after other false doctrines and religions – and then think that the Lord is simply going to turn a blind eye and let a lot of these matters go without you having to suffer the consequences of treading into territories that are expressly forbidden by Him.

You play – you pay – either in this life or the next!

There will always be serious consequences for entering into and engaging in sins that do not get confessed and forgiven under the blood of Jesus. And one of those severe consequences is having your personal prayer life get completely shut down with God the Father.

The Bible once again could not make things any more clear. God the Father will simply not be hearing any of your personal prayers or listening to anything you may have to say if you are not making some kind of concerted effort on your end to live a good and righteous life under the direction and guidance of the Holy Spirit.

For the most part, most Christians know how far they can push the envelope with God the Father. Through the convictions of the Holy Spirit, most Christians know where their boundary lines are set at with the Lord.

Tread past those boundary lines – and you could risk having God turn His face away from you and refuse to hear any of your prayers, petitions, or requests.

And if you cannot get God to answer any of your personal prayers in this life – then you have just taken yourself right off His playing field and you have now just been asked to sit on the bench in His dugout!

If any of you feel like your prayer life has stalled or has been stuck in neutral for quite some time with the Lord – try asking God to show you if there are any blocks or hindrances by way of any sins or transgressions that may need to be dealt with. Be sensitive to anything the Holy Spirit may want to bring up from your past.

Whatever the Lord may bring up for you that has to be dealt with – take each one of these problems and issues head on. If you do not, and you do not get these matters totally resolved with the Lord – then you will continue to stay stuck and grounded in your prayer life with Him.

And if your personal prayer life continues to stay stuck and grounded as a result of your refusal to pull out of certain sins and transgressions that He wants you to pull out of – then you will have just taken yourself right off His major league playing field and you will continue to stay seated on the bench in His dugout until you can agree to see and do things His way.

Some of God’s people right now are in major judgment with Him. When that happens, their calls and their walk with Him will get completely shut down until they can agree to repent and turn from the sins and transgressions they have been walking in.

These verses are giving you major revelation in an area where many Christians have got themselves into major trouble with the Lord.

I will end this with a word to the wise – God always knows best. Do things His way, and your life and walk with Him will become much easier.

Do things your way – and you will eventually end up becoming a train wreck just waiting to crash and burn. The choice is yours.

POWER AGAINST SEXUAL, PERVERSION
Romans 6:14

Sexual sins open the doors for all kinds of evil spirits to enter. This prayer is for those:

. Who would like to be delivered from the spiritual contamination resulting from
past sexual sins.

. Who would like to be delivered from their present sexual lusts, enticement, and
other sexual sins.

. Who would like to expel sexual satanic deposits acquired bysleeping with
demonised people.

. Who had been a commercial sex worker in the past.

. Who frequently dream of having sex.
Don’t despair if the enemy has subjected you to such a depth of immoral degradation. You would be lifted up to the height of purity which God has purposed for you as you call upon Him to help you.
Rom. 1:22: “Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.”
Please, open your Bible and slowly, meditatively read Rom. 1:18-32 and Leviticus 18:l-30.

Are you surprised at the things you’ve just read? Indeed there is nothing new under the sun! (Ecclesiastes 1:9) Basically the laws of God concerning sexual perversion as stated in Leviticus 18 can be divided into 5 groups. They are laws against

-incest (i.e. having sex with close relatives, brothers, in law’s, uncles etc., there are 20 categories of close relatives stated between verses 6 and 19)

-adultery (vs 20) -idolatry i.e. offering child sacrifices (vs 21)

-homosexuality, lesbianism, masturbation, prostitution etc (vs 22)

-bestiality (having sex with animals (vs 23)
Are you caught in the bondage of any of these? Indeed the chains of habit (perversion) are too weak to be felt till they are too strong to be broken. All kinds of sexual bondage can be bro-ken through the power of the blood of Jesus. There is hope for you, the Bible says, “Sin shall not have dominion over you” (Rom. 6:14) because “The law of Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin
and death” (Rom 8:2).

As you pray sincerely with a contrite/repentant heart (Psalm 51:17) God will set you free from the chains of sexual perversion.

• CONFESSION
Gal. 5:24: And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

• PRAISE WORSHIP

1. Thank God for His power to deliver from every bondage.

MEDITATE ON THE PASSION OF CHRIST!!!

Prayer Secret #1 – establishing a good, personal, intimate relationship with God the Father will now get you into the door with Him. It will get you to the point where God will now listen and consider each of your prayer requests.

Prayer Secret #2 is the next step when approaching God with a specific prayer request. This one seems to be so easy to grasp, but many Christians keep violating this basic common principle. Prayer Secret #2 is making sure that your prayer request always lines up with the will of God for your life.

I have a pet saying when it comes to this principle. The saying is, “Father always knows best.“ God always knows what is best for you in all situations – you do not! God’s knowledge and wisdom is always perfect – yours is not! God knows what all of your future will hold for you – you do not! Too many Christians are constantly asking God for things that He does not really want them to have.

Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything ACCORDING TO HIS WILL, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.” (1 John 5:14)

God hears your prayer only if the prayer request is in His perfect will for you and your life. If it is not, then the above verse is implying that He will not hear your prayer, and thus will not grant the prayer request.

This is where each Christian has to really get a grip on any specific prayer requests they are presenting to God. If God comes back letting you know that what you are asking for is not in His perfect will for you and your life, then you have to let it go, trust that God knows best, and move on.

When you approach God the Father with a specific prayer request – this is very serious business. You are asking God to bring something to you that normally would not be coming your way. You are asking God to supernaturally bring or allow this request to come your way through Him. So the first thing you have to do before approaching God with your specific prayer request is to make sure that your prayer request is in His perfect will for you and your life. There are several ways you can do this.

1. Analyze Your Prayer Request

Sometimes it is quite obvious that the request is needed and will be in God’s perfect will for you and your life. You do not even need to pray about whether or not it will be in His will for you and your life. The answer is already obvious and you can go ahead and shoot your prayer through.

A good example would be is that maybe you have just lost your job. You will now have to go to God and ask Him to lead you to the next new job He will want you to have. You already know this request will be in His perfect will for your life because you now need a new job to survive and put food on the table. This is quite obvious, and you can now go ahead and start pressing in and praying to God that He lead you to the next new job that He will want you to have.

Sometimes the request is not so obvious as to whether or not it will be in God’s will for you. Maybe you are dating someone and you would really like to marry this person. However, God has not voiced His opinion on the issue yet.

The way to properly handle this is to go to God and ask for His perfect will on the situation – whether or not you should marry this person. If you really love this person and really want to marry them, the best way to word your prayer is to tell God you would really like to marry this person, but you will only marry this person only if it will be in His perfect will for you to do so.

This way you are on safe ground with God in the way that you have worded the request. You have voiced your opinion on the matter, but you have also let Him know that He knows better than you do as to who you should be marrying in this life, and that you will not marry this person unless it will be in His perfect will for you to do so.

2. The Holy Spirit

The other way to approach this is to simply ask the Holy Spirit if you should be approaching God the Father with the specific prayer request. I believe that the Holy Spirit knows most, if not all of the time, whether or not God will answer your specific prayer request. You can save yourself a lot of travailing and praying by getting the Holy Spirit’s answer before you waste your time and God’s time by praying on a certain issue.

For those of you who have established a good inside connection with the Holy Spirit, the above is rather easy to do. You simply tap into Him, ask His opinion, and most of the time you will pick it up with an “inner knowing” from Him as to whether or not you should proceed any further in approaching God with the specific prayer request.

For those of you who have not yet established this kind of inner connection with the Holy Spirit, you can still go ahead and ask Him, and He will somehow get through to you as to whether or not you should be praying to God on a particular issue.

Now here are 3 short powerful stories that will really illustrate the importance of making sure that all of your prayer requests always line up with the perfect will of God for your life.

1. STORY #1 – About 10 years ago, a friend of mine told me this story and I will never forget it. One of her girlfriends had been dating a man for about two years. Everything was going great. She got to the point where she was now wanting to marry the man. She went before God and started praying, asking God if she should marry him. God came back with a one-line answer and the answer was, “He is sufficient for now.”

This type of an answer obviously was not good enough for her, so she kept pressing God for an answer as to whether or not she should marry this man. God came back with no further answers every time she asked. After about 6 months of continuing to ask God for His opinion on this matter and not getting any additional answers, she decided to make her own decision and marry the man without waiting for God’s confirmation or approval.

Six months into the marriage relationship, this man’s dark side all of a sudden started to emerge. He started to physically abuse her. The beatings got so bad that she had no other alternative but to divorce the man for fear he was going to end up killing her.

I have found from personal experience that whenever God is silent on a specific prayer request, this means to hold your position and do nothing until you receive further word from Him as to whether or not you should move in the direction that you are looking to move into.

2. STORY #2 – Here is another perfect example on this. Another one of my friends was dating a man for about 1 year. She too started asking God if she should marry him. She got no answer from God for at least 3 months. Again, she got impatient waiting for God to answer her. She went ahead and married the man without any leading from the Holy Spirit to do so, and no confirming activity from the Lord that she should marry the man.

One year into the marriage, she found out that her husband had been having an affair behind her back with one of his secretaries during the entire year that they had been married! They were divorced shortly thereafter.

Do you see what happens when you go against the perfect will of God on a specific request? Total death can result. In these two cases, both girls saw their marriages end up in divorce because they were not patient enough to wait for God’s answer on their specific requests! They were both praying for marriages that obviously were not in the perfect will of God for their lives. This is why I say God always knows best.

God knew the one man had a dark side that was going to emerge once he married the girl. He knew the other man would not stay faithful once he got married to the second girl. Neither girl could have known these things were going to occur. But God does know all these things and what our futures will hold for us – and this is why your prayer requests have always got to be within His perfect will for your life or the consequences could be disastrous like they were in these two stories!

3. STORY #3 – The third story is my own uncle’s story as he describes it. He begun, “about 20 years ago, I was dating a girl for about one year when she got diagnosed with cancer. The doctors told her she had a 50/50 chance of making it. She immediately started chemo and the rest of the appropriate cancer treatments. I took her to see Joyce Meyer for a healing, along with some of the other ministers in our area who were supposed to have the gift of healing operating through their ministries.

None of the ministers were able to bring any type of healing to my girlfriend. I then started to try and pray myself to see if I could get God to heal her. I will never forget what happened when I did. As I approached God the Father with the request, I felt the Holy Spirit put up a shield between me and God the Father. I initially ignored the shield and continued to try and pray through to God for this request.

As I started praying the appropriate words, I saw my words travel about two feet in front of my mouth and then drop straight to the ground. I could tell my words were not “hitting” God. I then felt the Holy Spirit start to literally pull back on my words as I was trying to release them to God. There was no anointing on my words. I had no wind at my back from the Holy Spirit to be approaching God with this specific request. I was really straining in trying to get my words to reach God the Father.

After about the 5th or 6th time when trying to pray to God for her healing, I immediately stopped and asked God if I should even bother to continue to pray on this issue due to the resistance I seemed to be picking up from the Holy Spirit.

I then received an immediate answer. I was given a strong knowing that God did not want to heal her and that it was His perfect will that she be brought home to Him – and if I continued to try and pray for this healing against His will, that I would just be expending useless energy. He made it loud and clear that His mind was already made up on the issue and that I was to let it go.

He then conveyed to me as to why He was not going to consider healing her. Long story short, my girlfriend was 40 years old when she came down with the cancer. 8 years prior to this, she got diagnosed with the beginning stages of emphysema. The doctors told her that if she did not quit smoking, that she would end up in a wheelchair and on an oxygen tent on a permanent basis.

For whatever reason, she would not quit smoking and she continued to smoke for another 8 years. The emphysema was starting to break into the next level and she still would not quit. She then broke out with the cancer. God made it very clear to me that He gave her 8 years to clean up her act, to heed the warnings from the doctors and to quit smoking.

Our bodies are a direct gift from God, and He expects all of us to do the best we can with them – especially in the area of taking proper care of them. When she refused to take proper care of her body by giving up smoking, God decided He was not going to heal her and that she would have to be brought home much earlier than He would have really liked.

I believe to this day that had my girlfriend quit smoking 8 years before coming down with this cancer, that there would have been a very good chance that God would have healed her of the cancer. But because she did not take proper care of her body, God had no natural desire to want to heal her when this emergency presented itself. And God gave her plenty of time to get her act together before this cancer hit – 8 years!

I did not tell my girlfriend what I felt God had conveyed to me. I did not want to cause her to lose hope in the event I had not properly heard from God on this issue. She tried several other healing ministries, along with continuing all of the cancer treatments, but nothing worked. She died one year later after getting diagnosed with the cancer.”

As you can see from the above three stories, you can save yourself a lot of blood, sweat, and tears when praying to God if you can pick it up ahead of time whether or not your specific prayer requests should be brought before Him for His consideration. This is the beauty of the ministry of the Holy Spirit. One of His jobs is to help us in our prayer life with The Lord to God the Father.

I have found that God will always come through loud and clear on this issue. Remember, God wants to establish a loving personal relationship with you – and in this personal relationship will be the benefit of being able to approach Him with your specific prayer requests.

2.  God really wants to show you how to play the prayer game with Him. It is prayer that will pull down major miracles from God. You just have to learn what the basic rules are and how to apply yourself with Him. The Bible lays down all the ground rules that you will need to know in order to become a very effective and powerful prayer warrior for the Lord.

For whatever reason, God has the big picture set up in that He will not move many of the times on a certain situation unless we first go into serious prayer with Him. The art of prayer is a powerful tool in the hands of a Spirit-filled believer. God can be moved to answer prayer no matter how dire the circumstances. You just need the knowledge on how to properly approach the Lord in order to get Him to move on certain situations.

I think you will find the remaining prayer secrets very interesting, as they will all give you several different options and strategies in which to approach God with on your specific prayer requests. I believe with knowledge comes power. With knowledge will come the ability to know how to pray.

God loves to answer prayers. The Bible says that God is looking to “show Himself strong” on behalf of those who have established a true, loving, personal relationship with Him. However, many Christians do not fully realize the power and potential they have if they would simply learn how to properly pray to God to get Him to move on certain situations.

Many people are so wrapped up in themselves and their own lives, they fail to see how their own prayers to God can help someone else out who may be in a dire situation. One of the prayer secrets I will be discussing shortly is the power of intercession – the ability to stand in the gap for someone else, approach God as his advocate, and pray to God to help them out of a dire situation.

Many people do not really know how to properly approach and pray to God the Father. As a result, people are either dying early before their time is really up, or they are forced to live under tragic circumstances due to no fault of their own. Accidents can happen. Bad things can happen. But prayers to God the Father can either prevent the bad things from happening before they happen, or they change the situation for the better once the bad thing has happened.

Remember, our God is in the life-saving business! Our God is a God of miracles. He is just looking for true prayer warriors to pull down these miracles that He is only to anxious to release!

Think of the possibilities that we all have with this privilege that we have with God the Father – to be able to boldly approach His throne for prayer anytime, anywhere, and for any situation – to be able to save the day for someone who may be at death’s door!

This is the call of the Eagle. A true Eagle of God is a “master prayer.” He has learned the fine art of being able to properly and effectively pray to God the Father in order to literally move mountains when needed. Nothing is impossible for a true Eagle of God because he knows nothing is impossible with the God he serves.

God is raising up an army of Eagles in this endtime that will fly with the power and anointing of God such as the world has never seen before or will ever see again. The Bible says in the latter days just before Jesus comes back, that an army will raised up. The verse is Joel 2:2. It reads:

“A day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness, like the morning clouds spread over the mountains. A people come, great and strong, the like of whom has never been; nor will there be any such after them, even for many successive generations.”

The rest of the verses then go into how powerful this army will be and the exploits they will do under God’s anointing and power.

A friend asked the question: How do I pray for unbelievers? How do I pray effectively? I trust that every Christian regularly prays for family or friends or colleagues or neighbors who do not yet know the Lord. And while we can and must pray for matters related to their lives and circumstances, the emphasis of our prayers must always be for their salvation. Here are some ways the Bible can guide our prayers.

Prayers for Their Salvation

We begin with prayers for salvation. Each of these prayers seeks the same thing, but in a different way or from a different angle or using different language. Each of them is grounded in a specific text of Scripture.

Pray that God would circumcise their hearts. Circumcision was the Old Testament sign of entering into God’s covenant, of being God’s people. To have a circumcised heart symbolizes having a heart that is fully joined to God, fully submissive to him. “And the LORD your God will circumcise your heart and the heart of your offspring, so that you will love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul, that you may live” (Deuteronomy 30:6).

Pray that God would give them a heart of flesh. The Bible contrasts a heart of flesh, a heart that is alive and responsive to God, to a heart of stone, a heart that is cold and unyielding. Pray that God would work within these unbelievers to change their hearts. “And I will give them one heart, and a new spirit I will put within them. I will remove the heart of stone from their flesh and give them a heart of flesh…” (Ezekiel 11:19).

Pray that God would put his Spirit within them. The great joy of salvation is being indwelled by God himself. Pray that God would grant this honor to those unbelievers, that he would choose to take up residence within them. “And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules” (Ezekiel 36:27).

Pray that they would come to Christ. If unbelievers are to come to salvation, there is just one way. They must come through Christ and Christ alone. “Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me’” (John 14:6). Remember, too, that he is the one who calls them to come and to be relieved of the burden of their sin (see Matthew 11:28-30).

Pray that God would open their hearts to believe the gospel. Once more, God must initiate and people must respond. So pray that God would open the hearts of these unbelievers so they can in turn believe, just as Lydia did. “The Lord opened her heart to pay attention to what was said by Paul” (Acts 16:14).

Pray that God would free them from the slavery of sin. Unbelievers may believe they are free, but they are in fact enslaved. They are slaves of sin, bound by their sin and sinfulness. Pray that God would liberate them by his gospel. “But thanks be to God, that you who were once slaves of sin have become obedient from the heart to the standard of teaching to which you were committed” (Romans 6:17).

Pray that God would remove Satan’s blinding influence . Unbelievers have been blinded by Satan and will only ever be able to see and appreciate the gospel if God works within them. So pray that God would give them sight—spiritual sight. “In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God” (2 Corinthians 4:4).

Pray that God would grant them repentance. Unbelievers cannot repent without the enabling grace of God. So pray that God would grant them repentance, that this repentance would lead them to a knowledge of the truth. Pray as well that they would come to their senses and that they would escape from the devil’s snare. “God may perhaps grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth, and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, after being captured by him to do his will” (2 Timothy 2:25-26).

Prayers For You

You have prayed for unbelievers using different words and approaching from different angles. But you should also pray for yourself.

Pray that you will develop relationship with them. For people to be saved they must first hear the good news of the gospel. For them to hear the good news of the gospel, they must first encounter Christians—Christians like you. Pray that you would develop deeper, more significant relationship with them so you can, in turn, speak truth. “How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching?” (Romans 10:14).

Pray for opportunities to minister to them. Many people come to faith after seeing Christ’s loved displayed through the ministry of Christians. Pray for opportunities to minister to unbelievers so that your ministry can have an evangelistic effect. “In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven” (Matthew 5:16).

Pray for them faithfully and persistently. Our temptation is to grow discouraged in prayer, to pray for a while and, when we see no visible results, to give up. But God calls us to persevere in prayer. “Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving” (Colossians 4:2). (See also the parable of the persistent widow in Luke 18:1-8.)

Pray for a burden to plead for their souls. Paul was willing to tell the church at Rome of his great longing to see the salvation of the lost. Do you share this deep longing? Pray that God would give you a great burden for souls. “Brothers, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for them is that they may be saved” (Romans 10:1).

Pray for boldness in generating and taking opportunities to speak the gospel. Even Paul longed for this boldness and for the confidence that he was speaking the right and best words. Pray that God would give you the boldness and, that when you take the opportunities, that he would then guide your words. “[Pray] also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel…” (Ephesians 6:19).

Pray for other believers to encounter them. God almost always uses a succession of people to share the gospel with people before they are saved. Pray, then, that God would lead other Christians into the lives of the unbelievers you love, that they too would provide an example of Christian living and that they too would speak the gospel. “I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth” (1 Corinthians 3:6).

Here are a few more biblical emphases to guide your prayers.

Pray that God would use any circumstance to do his work in them. We pray to a God who is sovereign and who sovereignly works his good will. Often he saves people through difficult circumstances, through bringing them to the very end of themselves. Pray, then, that God would arrange circumstances, whether easy or difficult, to lead them to salvation. “Before I was afflicted I went astray, but now I keep your word” (Psalm 119:67). As you pray for the unbelievers you love, always pray to God: “your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven” (Matthew 6:10).

Pray that God would extend his mercy to them. God assures us that he wishes for all people to turn to him in repentance and faith. He receives no joy from seeing people perish. Pray, then, that God would be glorified in the salvation of these people. “The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance” (2 Peter 3:9).

Pray with confidence. Finally, pray with confidence. God expects we will pray, God invites us to pray, God commands us to pray. Why? Because God loves to hear us pray and God loves to respond to our prayers. So as you pray for unbelievers, pray with confidence that God hears your prayers. “The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working” (James 5:16).

The Lord said to St. Faustina that when we pray this for sinners, they will receive a grace for conversion.

“O Blood and Water which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fountain of Mercy, I trust in You” 3x

Jesus, I trust in You

Jesus, I trust in You

Oh Jesus, I trust in You

Amen

The devil takes delight in weakening the strength of the saints. If he succeeds in weakening his victim, he will succeed in executing his wicked programmes. As long as you are spiritually strong, the devil will not be able to execute his agenda in your life. You need to pray to renew your strength in the presence of God. You need to pray consistently to mount up with wings as eagles.
You should make use of the prayer points until your spiritual batteries are charged. You can
turn your closet into an arena where you receive power.
This prayer is your personal antidote to failure in the day of battle.

BIBLE STUDY: Nehemiah 8:10; Isa. 40:29-31; 2 Sam. 22:33-36

Praise Worship

Confession: In the name of Jesus Christ, I am a beloved child of God. I believe in God. I believe in Jesus Christ and I believe in the blessed Holy Spirit, which is dwelling inside me. I believe in the unshakable and eternal power in the word of God. I believe that life and death are in the power of my tongue. I believe that as I make this confession unto life with the power in my tongue, according to the words which the Lord has put in my mouth this day, I shall prosper in my soul therewith.

It is written that Jesus Christ offered His blood as a drink and His flesh as bread, that whosoever drinks and eats them shall not die forever. Now, with strong faith in my heart, I hold in my hand, a cup containing the blood of the Lamb of God and I drink it that I may have eternal life.

I receive unto myself, the virtues, strength, power, might and anointing in the blood.
And I say, let the blood quicken all that is dead within me. Let all sucked, sapped and paralysed spiritual milk and strength of my life resurrect by the blood of Jesus.

Let the blood re-energize, revitalize, reactivate and revive all dead potentials and spiritual gifts within me.
Let the blood flush out of me, all inherited or self-acquired evil deposits in my system.
Let it purify my blood system. Let it make old things pass away in my life and transform everything to become new.
Let the power in the blood clean my spiritual vision and wash my spiritual pipe, that I may be receiving from the Lord unhindered.

I eat the flesh of Jesus with the heart of faith; for it is written, “His flesh is bread indeed.” I eat it now, so that I can also be with Him in His glory.

I eat the flesh of Jesus to receive new spiritual strength and vigour and to be united to Him. I receive new spiritual strength and vigour: to put all the works of the flesh under subjection; to paralyse the desires of my flesh; to buffet my flesh; to paralyse the power of my flesh and make it obedient to the laws of the Lord.

As I eat and drink the flesh and blood of my Lord Jesus Christ, I renew my covenant with Him and I receive the life therein for it is written, “Life is in the blood.” Thus, I possess the life and the Spirit of Christ in me, Amen.

Jeremiah found the words of God and ate them, and they became the joy of his heart. I have found the words of God and now, I throw them in my mouth like vitamin pills and chew, and digest them.

Let them produce within me, the power to rejoice in the Holy Ghost, the power to be steadfast in following God, the power to walk circumspectly, the power of holy living and the power of unashamed faithfulness in all circumstances.

The word of God is spirit and life.
Let the word of God raise every downtrodden area of my life.

Let the word, like fire, purify me like
the refiner’s fire. Let the word recreate in me everything stolen or destroyed by the enemy.

Let the word build me up and give me inheritance among all sanctified brethren.
Let the joy of the Lord strengthen me.

Let His right hand of righteousness uphold me. Let His countenance brighten up my life. Let the horn of His salvation lift me up, out of the valley of death and let his life giving anointing oil fall on me like the Dew of Hermon, and fill my life till I want no more.

Lord, make me drunk with the blood of Jesus and I shall be full of life eternally.

Father Lord, as it is written, that I should be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might, as you will be my might and my strength all the days of my life according to Your word, gird me with Your strength and let me not fall into the pit of my enemies, and I will praise You all the days of my life.

With my heart, I believe the word of God; with my mouth, I have confessed unto salvation and
justification. O Lord, let it be performed unto me, as I have prayed, in the one and only Jesus Christ’s mighty name, Amen.

Begin to pray;

1. Thank God for the strength with which He has been uploading all these years.

2. Cover yourself with the blood of Jesus.

3. I hold the blood of Jesus, as a shield against any power that is already poised to resist me, in the name of Jesus.

4. By the blood of Jesus, I stand against every device of distractions, in the name of Jesus.

5. I stand upon the word of God and I declare myself unmoveable, in the name of Jesus.

6. Father Lord, inject me with Your spiritual vitamins that will make me spiritually healthy, in the name of Jesus.

7. Father Lord inject me with spiritual desire that will boost my appetite to eat Your word, in the name of Jesus.

8. Father Lord, infuse my blood with spiritual vitamins that will produce hunger and thirst for prayers in me, in the name of Jesus.

9. Lord God, inject me with spiritual vitamins that will clear my vision and strengthen its clarity, in the name of Jesus.

10. Lord God, inject me with spiritual vitamins that will sustain me in the evil days, in the name of Jesus.

11. Lord God, inject me with divine immunity that will always kill spiritual germs and evil deposits in me, in the name of Jesus.

12. Lord God, inject me with spiritual energy that will make me tireless with You, in the name of Jesus.

13. Lord God, feed me with the food of the champions, in the name of Jesus.

14. Lord God, boost my energy to run the race that is set before me, in the name of Jesus.

15. I receive the comforting anointing and power in the Holy Ghost in times of trials and suffering in the name of Jesus.

16. I receive the unsearchable wisdom of the Holy Ghost, in the name of Jesus.

17. I take the shield of faith to quench every fiery dart of the enemy, in the name of Jesus.

18. I run into the name of the Lord, which is a strong tower, and I am safe, in the name of Jesus.

19. Father Lord, always make me drink from Your everlasting well of joy, in the name of Jesus.

20. Begin to bless the Lord for all answered prayers.

We prefer to see people do their own prayer work in order to become a strong warrior and intercessor. However there are times when an intercessor may be called upon to pray and intercede for another. This surely is biblical as God has ordained intercession. Some examples of intercession would include a parent praying for their child, or one praying for their spouse or friend or typical example is when we are called upon to pray for President Trump and America.  And we are to pray for those in authority over us, so there is no reason these prayers could not be applied to localities, communities, groups of people, leaders and nations. Pray this for President Trump, for leaders, for family and friends and even yourself.

Few Verses on Deliverance

“Lord, even the demons submit to us in Your Name.” Luke 10:17

“A woman (a gentile) whose young daughter had an unclean spirit heard about Him…She kept asking Him to cast the demon out of her daughter…Then He said to her, ‘For this saying go your way; the demon has gone out of your daughter.’ And when she had come to her house, she found the demon gone out, and her daughter lying on the bed.” Mark 7:25,26,29,30

“Now He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath. And behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bent over and could in no way raise herself up. But when Jesus saw her, He called her to Him and said to her, ‘Woman, you are loosed from your infirmity.’ And He laid His hands on her, and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God…ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has bound—think of it—for eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath?” Luke 13:10-13,16

“I do nothing of Myself (of my own accord or on my own authority), but I say exactly what My Father has taught Me…He Who sent Me is ever with Me.” John 8:28,29

“Cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.” Matt.10:8
