PRAYER

I think it is important before we pray to KNOW just what God has given us the ability to do ourselves so we do not ask Him for something He has given us the ability already to do our selves. We can see so many times in the lives of the apostles just what Power and Authority has been given to them and us, and yet we turn around a cry and beg God to do that which He has given us the ability to do our selves. When Jesus and the disciples where in the boat crossing the water and a squal broke out, Jesus was like (What's up with you guys! Why are you afraid?? Hello! you have been given that Authority to rebuke the storm.) We inherited Jesus Authority, All Of It, and more. You need to believe it in order to tap into it (to grab it). It is the Power within you, given to you by Christ (it is not yours alone!)

I am not against pray, I love prayer, more so intercessory prayer. Intercessory prayer is a connection to God's heart, invading the supernatural and taking command of the evil forces. This goes right up there with speaking in tounges.

Many people use prayer as a time to unwind, a time to let it all out, dump your stuff out, unload... Boy imagine if you came home each day and your spouse did that to you! Yeah, that wouldn't work out so well. Relationship is a two way thing. When we pray do we ask God to help people? Or are we doing as much as we can to help those people and ask God to pick up the slack we can't handle?

Prayer must be persisted! Presistance in prayer brings breakthroughs.
