Prayers
THE PURPOSE OF PRAYER
So many things are going on in the world today. Murders are taking place all over the world. People are starving all over the world. A War is going on and soldiers are being killed daily by suicide bombers and friendly fire. I just saw a story in which a family lost three sons in this War that is going on. I have no comments on the War, I certainly don’t proclaim to know all things because I do not. But I will speak on the things I have some information about, that subject would be Prayer. God is looking for the people that will bombard heaven with their prayers. God cannot move in this earth if the people who have authority in the earth do not pray. Why do you think Jesus had to come in the form of a man? Man had authority over the entire Earth, until he gave that authority to Satan. In order for Man to get his authority over the Earth back God himself had to come into this earth the way you and I have, thru the womb of a woman.
African Americans will understand this point well, years ago African Americans were not allowed to vote. People died, people lost their lives so that African Americans could have the right to vote! Some Caucasian people lost their lives in the fight so that African Americans could vote. And now in these modern day times when it’s time to vote, it is a shame how few African Americans go to the polls. How would Martin Luther King Jr. feel if he knew how this generation of African Americans disregard voting? How would Harriet Tubman feel? How would those little girls that were killed in that church feel? Well, how do you think God feels when he has done everything he can for us so we could rule and reign in this earth, and we sit around on our hands and let all this sin accumulate and add up and we don’t pray!
Why was prayer taken out of schools? Somebody wasn’t praying! Why was abortion able to gain such ground? Somebody wasn’t praying! Why are pictures of Jesus being taken down all over the world? God’s people are not praying! Why are people lying saying that Religion and Government are separate? Our forefathers believed in God some of them were strong Godly men. All it takes for Evil to run wild is for Godly People to sit around and do nothing! Take baby steps if you have to but please Pray. Is there crime in your neighborhood? Why don’t you pray about it? Pray for the soldiers fighting in the War. Are you against Abortion? Why don’t you pray about it? Do you disagree with prayer not being allowed in schools? Why don’t you pray about it? God listens to the prayers of his people. The word says “the prayers of the righteous avail much”. For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayers. People we need to pray, we need to stop complaining and pray. How is it we’ve allowed the Devil to convince us to stop going into our prayer closets?
His people are up praying at all times of the night against the Saints! They see how important prayer is, even though it is for the wrong reason. Why is it that the same people always show up for the prayer meetings we do have? But when there is some big time minister coming to town to preach the place is packed out! And in the prayer meeting we might be blessed with 10 or 12 people. Saints are struggling all over the world that is a fact. Don’t you realize that if we come together in prayer a lot of our problems can be handled? Don’t you realize that the prayers of the saints can put an end to abortion? If we can come together and rebuke a hurricane and reduce it to a tropical storm, what other things can we do? We even need to be teaching our children to pray. God loves to hear the prayers of children. The prayers of children are innocent and pure they haven’t had a chance to form ulterior motives yet. There should be no city called “the Murder capital” if there are even as much as two Saints living in that city.
I as well as other Saints have been guilty of giving the devil too much glory. We look at what he is doing and we get disgusted and upset and we talk about it, when we should be praying about it. Don’t you know that when we talk about what the devil is doing without praying about it, it magnifies him and gives him glory. That is why sin is so rampant in the Earth instead of tearing down the enemy with our prayers we have built him up by giving him positive feed back. This world was formed out of the words that came out of God’s mouth. I think we forget that and we see all this evil and we forget it was able to manifest because of Words. Everything comes from Words. Good and Evil all come from Words. Why do you think the devil attacks in the mind all the time? So he can control what you say and what you think. He knows Man has dominion and authority and he is skillful in getting man to use his authority for the wrong reasons. Let’s take the Authority back Saints! Let’s shock God and all of Heaven by bombarding the throne room of Heaven with our prayers on a constant basis.
And for those who don’t watch the news, start watching the news! How will you know what is going on in the world if you don’t watch the news. Yes the news is negative most of the time, but it also provides you with topics and subjects for prayer. Since they want to report the negative we can pray about it and turn all that around. Children going to public schools definitely need prayer. When I was in school we didn’t have to have medal detectors, a fight consisted of two children meeting outside at 3 pm having a simple fist fight. Now the children are bringing guns to school and shooting each other, or bringing knives to school cutting each other. Every child that attends school needs to be covered in prayer. Not only children but adults as well! Remember what happened at the college in Virginia? We need to be praying, I cannot stress enough how badly we need to be praying. Let’s stop fighting and begin to work together as a prayer force this world has never seen the likes of!
