Jesus Commands Us to Pray

Text: Luke 11:9-10, John 14:13-14, 15:16 , Mark 11:24
The Lord Jesus Christ taught us how to pray(Luke 11:2-4), commanded us to pray (Luke 18:1-8) and admonished us to pray (Matthew 26:38-45). He taught us “when we Pray”; (Matthew 6:5-7)“when we fast.”(Matthew 6:16-18). In fact the Lord said in Matthew 21:13, told us the church is a house of prayer. The question therefore is not when to pray, but how to pray to get results.

Jesus overcame the world, the flesh and the devil through prevailing prayers. We can also prevail through prayers. Jesus spent much time in prayer, always praying the answer and not the problem .He used the written word to overcome Satan and always spoke directly to the problem, such as trees, storms, demons, sickness, disease and Satan and they all obeyed Him. When we speak boldly the written word of God, the devil will leave us hastily. The spoken word will work for you as you continuously confess it.

1. How can we prevail in prayers? Luke 11:9-10
We must totally depend on the merits and mediation of Jesus Christ for our answers (John 14:13-14, 15:16). I addition to forsaking sin and forgiving others, asking according to His Word, we must persevere in prayer until we receive the answer.

2.Case Study: Prayer for Healing
God has a provision for your problem before you even had the problem. Jesus already died to produce your healing. By His stripes you were healed — that's past tense (1 Peter. 2:24).
God already made the provision, whatever your need is, before you ever had the need.

God has already generated the power needed to accomplish our blessings according to Ephesians 1:19 and Philippians 4:19.

Let us pray “Father I pray right now that the Holy Spirit would right now quicken on the inside of us whatever it is that needs to change so that we can receive what God has already done.

According to 2 Peter 1:3 all that pertain to life and godliness are given to us through the knowledge of Him.

Let us pray “Father I ask you to impart to me the knowledge I need right now to release and experience your power.

I speak to the problem right now, in the name of Jesus. I command it to bow or die or wither away in the name of Jesus. You………… die in the name of Jesus. Father I loose your anointing to flow into the problem to release the captive right now.

In Jesus name I command fear and unbelief to be gone, faith to come, and love to flow into the situation now. I believe receive the blessing now in Jesus Name
