Significance in Prayer I

John 14:14 (KJV)
If ye shall ask anything in my name, I will do it.

I think many of us have forgotten about the significance in prayer. God gave us dominion over this earth and if we want to see the power of God move on this earth we have to get back to praying. When we pray we are offering up petitions, and supplications to God to be answered. If there is something going on that needs to be changed we have the power to change it through prayer, but if we’re not praying than it’s not going to be changed. Whatever happens here on this earth, if it is allowed by us than it is allowed by God, if it is denied by us than it is denied by God.

Matthew 16:19 (NLT)
And I will give you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. Whatever you forbid on earth will be forbidden in heaven, and whatever you permit on earth will be permitted in heaven.”

I’m telling you this day, that if we all came together as one, like it is intended; through our prayers we have the power to transform cities, states, and nations. People, the Word of God is real, the principals are real, and the laws are real. We have to open our eyes and see. I’m tired of people giving the devil so much glory, every time something bad happens we blame it on the devil. Let’s start taking control of what God has given us. The problem doesn’t lie with the devil, it lies within us because we allow him to reek havoc across the earth. All we have to do is stand together as one and forbid it from happening.

Now, when we pray it is very imperative that we only send our petition to God one time, and use our faith to see it carried out.

Matthew 6:7 (KJV)
But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

I’ll let you in on a little secret, GOD HEARD YOU THE FIRST TIME!! Imagine asking someone at work for a ride home 20 times before it was clock out time. Do you think that would be necessary to do if they already told you yes the first time? It’s the same thing with God, if your petition is according to his will and you asked in the name of Jesus, than it is done. If you don’t see an instant manifestation, don’t worry just give thanks to God for it being done, because he is not a man that he should lie.

Philippians 4:6-7 (NKJV)
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; 7 and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

It’s time to take a stand and start transforming this world.

I pray that this has been a blessing on your life.
