Praying Out For 2024

FOR THE BELIEVER THIS LIFE IS A LIFE OF FAITH.  

Gen 5:22 Tells us that after the birth of Methuselah Enoch walked with God for 300 years and God took him... 

Heb 11:6 Without faith it is impossible to please God for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.

Luke 18:1 He was telling them a parable to show that at all times they ought to pray and not to lose heart,

WHEN WE PRAY ON EARTH OUR PRAYERS REACH HEAVEN. 

Rev 5:8 Twenty-four Elders each with golden bowls full of incense which are the prayers of the saints. 

THE MOST HEALTHY STATE OF A CHRISTIAN IS TO BE CONSTANTLY DEPENDING ON THE LORD FOR SUPPLIES, RICH IN JESUS, AND MIGHTY THROUGH GOD TO DO GREAT EXPLOITS. (Charles Spurgeon)

Luke 11... THE DISCIPLES ASKED JESUS TO “Teach us to pray.” NOT TEACH US TO PREACH OR HEAL THE SICK.

PRAYER IS THE CATALYST FOR INTIMACY WITH GOD (Dan 11:32)

GETTING TO KNOW GOD BUILDS CONFIDENCE, WHICH IS A FACTOR IN APPROACHING GOD AND FULFILLING OUR ASSIGNMENTS.

1 John 5:14 This is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. 15 And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him. 

THE PRIMARY PURPOSE FOR GODS HOUSE IS PRAYER

Isaiah 56:7 My house shall be called a house of prayer for all people

Mark 11:15 -17 My house shall be a house of prayer for all the nations. 

OUR AFFECTIVENESS IN PRAYING FOR OTHERS IS GOING TO REST LARGELY ON OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. HOW WELL WE KNOW HIM.

James 5:13 Is anyone among you suffering? Then he must pray. Is anyone cheerful? He is to sing praises. 14 Is anyone among you sick? Then he must call for the elders of the church and they are to pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord; 15 and the prayer offered in faith will restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven him. 16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.

PRAYER BRINGS POWER INTO MANIFESTATION

Heb 4:16 Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

FAITH AND PRAYER WILL POSITION YOU FOR THE HELP YOU NEED

GOD WANTS US TO KNOW THAT HIS POWER IS DIRECTED TOWARDS US WHEN WE BELIEVE. (Eph 1:19)
