Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart. Colossians 4:2
As a born again believer of Jesus Christ you need to have confidence when you pray, and pray with power. Depending on God is the secret to answered prayer and growing in your walk with Lord daily.
In a world where “making things happen” is often valued over seeking God first, Scripture directs you to “pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and Pray at all times on every occasion, in every season in the Spirit, with all manner of prayer and entreaty. To that end keep alert and watch with strong purpose and perseverance, interceding in behalf of all the saints God's consecrated children. Ephesians 6:18
Most people when faced with challenges, worry, fear, anxiety tries to take over their thoughts and directs their responses but God in Philippians 4:6 encourages you to, “not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present my request to God.”
God wants prayer to be your First Response Not your Last Option, yo make it your priority in responding to everything and anything. 1Timothy 2:1 urges you to first of all, make petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving for all people.
When you spend time in the Presence of God Your Father, Seeking His Face and desiring Him as much as you do breath in your lungs and the blood that flows through your veins, then prayer is the most important necessity of your life.
God makes this possible through His Holy Spirit working in you and interceding on your behalf, along with Christ Jesus, Who died, or rather Who was raised from the dead, Who is now seated at the right hand of God actually pleading as He intercedes for you
Romans 8:34
Prayer is a demonstration of the Holy Spirit and power. A proof that the Spirit and power of God are operating on you and stirring in your mind and the minds of you hearers the most holy emotions and thus persuading them.
1 Corinthians 2:4
Prayer is the spiritual way of life living in the spirit, interacting with God on a moment by moment basis unceasingly.
Your prayer life is ALWAYS God Initiated, for you to interact with God, switching your human ideas and Wishes for His Ideas and Wishes as He Imparts His Divine Persuasion
Acts 6:5-6, 14:22-23; Eph 6:16-18; Col 1:3-4; 2 Thes 3:1-2
IMPORTANT
The Holy Spirit's instruction through Peter was to: unceasing in prayer. 1 Thessalonians 5:17 This simply means, to turn your thoughts to God, depending on the Holy Spirit in you to stir you continuously, to interact with God on a moment by moment basis throughout the day, to know what God prefers in each moment of your day. So, it you are able to maintain an interrupted and constant spirit of prayer, by the Holy Spirit Himself Testifying with your own spirit, assuring you what God prefers and all the affairs of life. Romans 8:16
Yes, the Spirit Himself thus testifies together with your own spirit, assuring you that you are a child of God,
Romans 8:16
Jesus ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, Comforter Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby, that He may remain with you forever– The Spirit of Truth, Whom the world cannot receive welcome, take to heart, because it does not see Him or know and recognize Him. But you know and recognize Him, for He lives with you constantly and will be in you.
John 14:16-17
The Holy Spirit comes to your aid and bears you up in your weakness; for you do not know what prayer to offer nor how to offer it worthily as you ought, but the Spirit Himself goes to meet your supplication and pleads in your behalf with unspeakable yearnings and groanings too deep for utterance.
And God Who searches the hearts of men knows what is in the mind of the Holy Spirit, what His intent is, because the Spirit intercedes and pleads before God in behalf of you, according to and in harmony with God's will. Psalms 139:1-2
So, you are assured and know that God being a partner in your labor, all things work together and are fitting into a plan for good to and for you who love God and are called according to His design and purpose. Romans 8:26-28
And this is the confidence, the assurance, the privilege of boldness, which you have in Him: you are sure that if you ask anything, make any request, according to His will, in agreement with His Own plan, He listens to and hears you. And since you positively know that He listens to you in whatever you ask, you also know with settled and absolute knowledge that you have granted to you as your present possessions, the requests you made of Him. In Jesus Name. Amen.
1 John 5:14-15
