THE POWER TO PRAY BY APOSTLE JOSHUA SELMAN

THE FORCE OF PRAYER BY APOSTLE JOSHUA SELMAN
Forces that must be engaged for every believer desiring to activate Greater Works:
1. The Force of Prayer (2 Chronicles 7:14)
Every agenda or program of God is birthed and managed through the weapon and tool of prayer.
The prophetic assignment, when executed accurately, involves discerning the blueprint of God’s plan through fervent prayer.
The true assignment of a Prophet goes beyond just prophesying. The prophetic is closely connected with intercession.
Whenever you witness something succeeding in the earthly realm, according to God’s satisfaction and purpose, prayer ushered it.
To impact nations, you must begin by transforming your own Jerusalem, starting with your life and family.
There are certain things God desires that can only happen through the power of prayer.
Many pray but few understand the assignment and dimensions of prayer.
A person of prayer with understanding is a person of power in their generation.
God moves when people pray: He hears when you cry unto Him, but He moves when you pray. (Matthew 18:19, James 5:16, Luke 1:19)
Learn to pray as a habit, not as an emergency response system. Prayer enlarges and expands your capacity.
Prayer requires stamina. Even in the absence of results, keep praying.
You won’t pray for one day and receive the results of ten years; prayer is an investment.
Praying in the spirit solves many challenges simultaneously. It edifies your spirit man while dealing with the current challenge.
There are layers in the spirit realm that only prayer can unveil.
It’s possible to pray amiss. As a believer, prayer should be accompanied by clear understanding (James 4:3).
Make prayer a habitual practice, not just an emergency response.
Being a person of prayer often means you won’t need specific prayer points.
Just because you said “Amen” and stayed long in prayer doesn’t equate to effective prayer; effective prayer must be Word-compliant (effectual) and fervent. (James 5:16B)
Your first response to any prompting in the realm of the spirit should be prayer.
Prayer filters all revelations; driving out anything that is inconsistent with The Word of God.
Assignment:
Choose one day during the week, dedicate two to three hours, and pray for your personal requests and the program of God into your life.
Gather your family members and unite in agreement as you carry out this assignment.
Pray: Father, place upon me the grace and discipline to pray, with understanding.
No matter how sure you are, never take a step that is not filtered through in the place of prayer. It can save you ten years of misery.
If you do not know what to do in your life, start by praying.
Direction comes in the place of prayer, and with direction comes confirmation, through the lens of Scripture.
Prayer is never convenient. You must discipline yourself and learn to build a system of consistency that enhances your prayer life, to become a person of prayer. (James 5:18, Ecclesiastes 10:10, 11:3)
Prayer is an investment; it requires stamina. (Luke 18:1)
One strategy that can enhance your prayer life is an atmosphere of worship.
Praying effectively involves aligning your prayer with Scripture while praying fervently means your heart is fully engaged in it. (James 5:16b).
When you declare, “Let God arise and His enemies be scattered,” remember it’s His enemies, not your personal adversaries. God’s enemy is not someone you dislike.
In the name of Jesus, the ability to discern spiritual things with precision and accuracy, may that grace rest upon you!
