SCRIPTURE: Confess your faults one to another and pray one for another that you may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months. And he prayed again and the heaven gave rain and the earth brought forth her fruit.
James 5:16–17
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: There is something that belongs to you in God. If you know it, your prayer journey becomes a walk-over.
There are secrets to every success in life. Keys are specific to doors and products are birthed in process. If you want success, look for the secrets. If you want to enter through a door, look for the right key. If you want to get a product, look at the process.🇺🇸
Prayer is not an exception. Effective prayer is not accidental. It follows principles. It answers to light. It responds to covenant understanding.
Now, what are the keys to impactful and result-full praying?
1. Possess of Light
For your prayer to be impactful and effective, you must possess light. Light is simply a revelation from the Word of God.
O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me. Psalm 43:3
Take with you words and turn to the Lord. Hosea 14:2
If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. John 15:7
What does light do?
a. Light ushers us into God’s Presence.
Take with you words and turn to the Lord. You don’t go empty to the Lord; you go with Word.
b. Light is fuel for faith.
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
Romans 10:17
Light imparts might when a fight is needed. You don’t pray with sentiment; you pray with light. You don’t get answers on the grounds of pity; you get answers on the grounds of revelation.
For example, when facing resistance in travel and ministry, light from Isaiah 45:2 — I will go before thee and make the crooked places straight… — is relevant. With that light, doors open. Nations open. Resistance gives way because light has come.
2. Know Your Right
There is something that belongs to you in God. If you know it, your prayer journey becomes a walk-over.
The secret things belong unto the Lord… but those things which are revealed belong unto us. Deuteronomy 29:29
Acts 20:32 speaks of your inheritance among them which are sanctified.
The prodigal son said Luke 15: 12, “Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me.” He was not asking for what was not his; he was asking for what belonged to him.
What is the importance of knowing your right in prayer?
a. It imparts you with the boldness to ask.
When you know something is yours, you ask for it with confidence and faith.
b. It imparts might for a fight.
Deuteronomy 2:24 says, Begin to possess it, and contend with him in battle. It is yours, but it is in another person’s hand. So, contend with them and possess it.
3. Act in Faith
The possession of light and the knowledge of your rights must lead you to act in faith.
This is because Without faith it is impossible to please Him. Hebrews 11:6
…Let him ask in faith, nothing wavering… James 1:6
What does faith do?
a. Faith moves God into action.
God is pleased when He is believed, and He is pained when He is doubted. When you believe Him, you please Him, but when you doubt Him, you give Him pain. And when you please Him, you move Him to action.
b. Faith positions you at the standpoint of victory.
This is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
1 John 5:4
Beloved, prayer is not passive or casual. There is a posture for reverence and a posture for warfare. When addressing God in worship, there is humility, but when addressing the devil, there is authority.
Remember This: There is something that belongs to you in God. If you know it, your prayer journey becomes a walk-over.
PRAYER: Father, open my eyes to light from Your Word. I receive the grace for boldness, faith, tenacity and result-full prayer, Lord in Jesus Name.
ASSIGNMENT(S)
1. Before you pray about any issue today, locate at least three Scriptures that address that matter. Meditate on them until light rises in your heart, then pray with confidence and authority.
