Power of Prayer
When we
pray we are making a demand upon Gods power. When a need touches Him, it makes
a demand upon his ability to meet that need.
Prayer is
the way we touch Him. Prayer means that we come boldly into the throne room and
we are standing in His presence.
No other
aspect of Christian service links us to Gods power as that of prayer.
The power
of prayer coupled with the powers of heaven can remove mountains in our lives
and the lives of others.
The power
of prayer which can awaken those who sleep in sin and raise up the dead. A
power which can capture strongholds and make the impossible possible. Prayer is
to the spirit what breath is to the body.
If we think prayer is something we do only in emergencies,
we have missed its value. We treat
prayer as though it is the spice of life, but the bible says it is a vital
staple in our diet.
We are
content with a dash of praise, a pinch of petition, a drop of confessing to
bring a slight spiritual flavor to our secular life. We sprinkle a shake or two
of the supernatural over our basic humanism and call the mixture religion.
But God
sees prayer as the breath of spiritual life. The power of prayer is really the
power of god released through prayer.
When
speaking about the power of prayer, it is important that Christians understand
that the might power of god is released in peoples lives through prayer.
True prayer
releases the power to bring results, but God is the source of that power of
prayer. Prayer is as mighty as God because he has committed himself to answer
it.
1st
Peter 3:12 says... for the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his
ears are open to their prayers. Prayer when properly understood and developed
can reach beyond any barrier and conquer any mountain.
Prayer is
the key that unlocks all the storehouse of Gods infinite grace and power. All
God is, and all that God has is at the disposal of prayer. Three is no
circumstance or geographic location that prayer can not penetrate.
Prayer can
go to places where no other power can reach. There is no situation or problem
to great for the power of prayer. It leads to all blessings and brings the
prayer warrior into the very presence of God himself
Here are
the vast possibilities of prayer. Wisdom, knowledge, holiness and heaven are at
the command of prayer. Nothing is outside of the reach of our prayers.
Be blessed
