What Prayer does for You
James 5:16-18 "Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that year may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Elijah was a man subject to like passion as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months. And he prayed again and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit."
To pray isn't religious as some opined, prayers entails the movement of your life and welfare, if you do not know how to pray, it will be difficult for you to end well, it doesn't matter how brightly you started your life. The end of a thing is better than the beginning.
Everyone prays, wether it's a wish,or a desire or a mere words of luck, it's translated into inner self belief, even most people who claim they don't believe in the existence of the Almighty God prays, they actually think things to be better than its with them or the pains, sicknesses, frustration and disappointment they are encountering to go away.
Methods of prayers degenerated into men performing magic and diverse kind of spiritualism crept into the society thereby damaging the concept of spiritual communication between the mortal men and immortal God Almighty.
Prayers are like needing help from your Creator, comfort from your founder, just like every other things would need a repair from the makers. Like your automobiles would cry out or broken loose and down when the parts are no longer in order. All you need to do is fix them together, you may not know the extent to which the damage have been until the craft is taken to the right mechanics.
Same way you may never know how much you are broken loose until the right prayers are offered on your behalf. The reason people are running from church to church is because they never learned how to pray. If from the beginning of their lives, they payed close attention to their teachers who had tried to teach them how to pray, they wouldn't have suffered much as they are suffering today, it pays to hear.
It was because of the so called misconceptions about prayers that the disciples of Christ Jesus asked the master of all to teach them how to pray". That's what you really need to know, it's not how to slay, to surf the web, how to make money or to be successful, because it will give nothing after you have gained the whole world and then lost your soul" . You must be wise in this life not to contradict the vital things and trivial pursuit. Wealth does not make a man, but wisdom will deliver you from death. How do I mean
Proverbs 8:32 "Now therefore hearken unto me, O you children: for blessed are they that keep my ways."
That's exactly what I mean, in the eyes of men you may be a very successful man, but in reality you are killing your own soul. Be careful people what you claim to have believed in life.
And so, enough of talk, let us get over with it. Prayers connects you with the solutions that have eluded you, maybe you have been having a dangerous nightmares and you have tried everything you know to stop evil spirits from tormenting you in your dreams, the right kind of prayers will stop those nonsense from happening in your dreams.
Let me say something most of you have heard over and again, but hasn't taken it seriously, if you are a Christian, that means you have believed in your heart that God Almighty raised Christ Jesus His son from death, and that makes your heart right with God Almighty's thought and again you have confessed with your mouth that CHRIST JESUS is the lord of all
Colossians 1:15-20 "CHRIST, who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by CHRIST were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by CHRIST, and for CHRIST: And CHRIST is before all things, and by him all things consist. And CHRIST is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he, CHRIST might have the preeminence. For it pleased the Father God Almighty that in CHRIST should all fulness dwell; And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven."
And so, if you have accepted all these about Jesus, then you should not play with his name when you pray. Prayers begin with his name and end in his name. Whatever you have addressed in the name of CHRIST is irrevocable, in other words it can never be overturned. So, in your different churches where you play with CHRIST JESUS name, I marvel, you hear folks chanting in Name Jesus I command you out, I command you out, they could say that a thousand times thinking they will be heard by repeating those words, that's hypocrisy.
You really didn't believe His Name has power, you are just saying those things because that is the way you were thought.
But I am telling you today, stop using the name of the lord in vain, that name is authority in heaven and earth, what ever you decreed in that name is done wether you could see it or not.
Your success in prayer is hung up to your revelations of the name Christ.
