TOPIC: Conditions for Getting Prayers Answered (6)
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR
2 Kings 17–18; John 3:19–36
MEMORY VERSE
John 15:4 – Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine, no more can ye, except ye abode in me.
MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE
Those who abide in God and His Word and pray without ceasing are the real prayer eagles.
PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY
Receive the grace and power to live the kind of life that glorifies God, in the Name of Jesus.
FIRE SCRIPTURE
John 15:1-7
1 Jesus said, “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch of mine that does not produce fruit. He also trims every branch that produces fruit to prepare it to produce even more. 3 You have already been prepared to produce more fruit by the teaching I have given you.
4 Stay joined to me and I will stay joined to you. No branch can produce fruit alone. It must stay connected to the vine. It is the same with you. You cannot produce fruit alone. You must stay joined to me.
5 “I am the vine, and you are the branches. If you stay joined to me, and I to you, you will produce plenty of fruit. But separated from me you won’t be able to do anything. 6 If you don’t stay joined to me, you will be like a branch that has been thrown out and has dried up. All the dead branches like that are gathered up, thrown into the fire and burned.
7 Stay joined together with me, and follow my teachings. If you do this, you can ask for anything you want, and it will be given to you
MFM MOUNTAIN TOP LIFE DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE:
Another condition for getting prayers answered is in the Gospel of John Chapter 15. According to our Fire Scripture, we must abide in Christ. It says, “If you abide in me and my words abide in you, you shall ask what you will and it shall be done UNTO YOU.”
Notice that there is a condition attached to Jesus’ promise in John 15:7. “If you abide in me and my words abide in you,” is your own part of the verse. It is the condition. Then “you shall ask what you will and it shall be done unto you” is God’s part of the verse.
You should note that to experience God’s part, you must first do your own part. To abide in Christ, you must be like a branch that receives its sustenance from a vine. The branch does not reach down into the earth to receive fertilizer and moisture, but the vine does so through its roots. The branch has to abide in the vine in order to live and not wither.
Dearly Beloved of the Lord, if you want your prayers answered, one of the conditions you must meet is to stay connected to the Lord, like branches on a vine, in order to live and yield to Christ for your spiritual growth. When a faucet is connected to the pipe that transports water from the reservoir, it will be easy for water to run when the faucet is opened. The same way, we that are called the children of God must stay connected to our God through Bible reading, prayer and meditation. Through these means, we can ask God what we want and, according to His will, He will answer us.
Dear reader stay connected to your heavenly Father. Another person’s son can never go to a father who did not give birth to him to make any request except there is a connection between them.
You are connected to the heavenly Father.
