Memorise: In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. 1st Thessalonians 5:18
Read: Mark 11:22-26 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.
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.
A lot of people pass through
this world like an ant: unnoticed and unknown. Their minds are so beclouded by
the powers of darkness that they do not understand the will of God for their
lives. There are several people at various crossroads in the life who
have no clue of what to do next. For some, their hopes are dashed and purpose
lost. It is only in the place of prayer – result-producing prayer – that
you can put a stop to such activities of the devil. Prayer is a wonderful
privilege the saints of God can use to access the promises of God. When you
engage in violent prayer, it releases your faith. Faith in turn enables you to
call those things that be not as though they exist. It sees life in death,
prosperity in poverty, salvation in the enslavement of sin, fruitfulness in
barrenness, redemption in destruction and miracles in the face of
insurmountable problems.
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.
Bible in one year: Luke 16:17,
Isaiah 29:15-30:7
