Power of Prayer

Dahab  (4 March - 10 March)  

Praying for continents, countries, communities and families, fasting meals and standing in the gap while trusting God for breakthroughs...., it can leave you physically, emotionally and spiritually drained.  

Trying to motivate ourselfs we often seek results and get discouraged when little is found.  How then can we stay motivated, and why so little results?  

 Hear are a few principles:  

Allways pray in the name of Jesus Christ.

Prayer is not results driven, but so much more heart driven!!

Have a pure heart and live a lifestyle of repentance, a righteous lifestyle.  You cannot live in sin and expect Gods favour.

Prayer without faith means nothing!  Pray AND believe, as if the words spoken is coming into existance as you pray them.  That is your result in faith, because God is faithfull!  Prayer really does change everything..  

And lastly, pray according to Gods will.

Pray and believe... I challenge you.... and see what happens.  

James 5:16b ¨The effective, fervant prayer of a righteous man avails much. ¨    

Hebrews 11:1 ¨Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.¨  

Mark 9:23 ¨If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.¨

Psalms 66:18 ¨If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear.¨

1 John 5:14,15 Now this is the confidence that we have in Hm, that if we ask according to His will, He hears us.  And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have petitions that we have asked of Him.
