RESULT-PRODUCING PRAYER – Friday February 3rd 2017
Memorise: In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. 1st Thessalonians 5:18
22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
23 For
verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be
thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his
heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to
pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
25 And
when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your
Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
Bible in one year: Luke 16:17, Isaiah 29:15-30:7, Hymn: Sing hymn 4
MESSAGE:
Result-producing
prayers are prayers that remove mountains. They are prayers that put
the forces of hell to flight. They part Red Seas and make a way for you
into your promised land. These are prayers that guarantee the
achievement of impossible feats and open the door to outstanding
success. They are prayers that put business ideas in the heart of
entrepreneurs and make their businesses remain at the cutting edge of
prosperity even during an economic crunch. It is the type of prayer that
stills every storm in the life of an individual. Result-producing
prayers make deliverance from evil powers possible. By these prayers, a
beggar is raised from the pit and made a channel of blessings to
generations after him. From today, your prayers will command outstanding
results in Jesus’ Name.
The
problem I have seen in the Body of Christ is that ministers theorise
prayer. Prayer is a potent weapon that can produce speedy results. It
should be consciously engaged in settling any unrest, challenges,
confrontations, intimidations and difficulties that one faces in the
journey of life. Prayer is not theoretical, but a practical
demonstration of God’s power. I have been to prayer meetings where
ministers preach so much about prayer but end up not leading people in
prayers. I have also seen people, who were asked to lead prayers, get
distracted by other issues after getting to the pulpit. The power of the
cross of Calvary will destroy every yoke, bondage, spell, attack and
curse that has been waging war against your prayer life in Jesus’
Name.
Key Point
It is dangerous for a minister of the gospel to preach more than he prays.
