PRAYER POINTS

1.    WHAT YOU SAY MAKES A DIFFERENCE

Psalm 50.23 – Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his conversation aright will I shew the Salvation of God.

To pray effectively for yourself, someone else or anything else and talk negatively about the matter.  We must keep our speak about the issue with faith and not give Satan an open door through our negative words to build a blockaid to our prayers.

Matthew 12:34-37

O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.  35. A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. 36. But I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. 37. For by the words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

BEING DOUBLE MINDED.

When we are praying for God's help in a matter and we continue to speak woe is me...this is never going to happen...,etc.  This is being double minded, and a double minded man receives nothing from God. (James 1:6-8)

James 1:

     6  But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering.  For he that wavereth is like wave   of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.

     7. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord

     8.  A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

2.    TALK THE ANSWER NOT THE PROBLEM.  The answer is in God’s word.  You must have knowledge of that word –revelation knowledge.  (1Cor. 2:7-16)

      1 Cor. 2

         7.  But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:

          8.  Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucifiend the Lord of glory.

          9.  But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

        10.  But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

        11.  For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the sprit of man which is in him?  even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spriit of God.

        12.  Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

        13.  Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth: comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

       14.  But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him; neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

       15.  But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.

       16.  For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him?  But we have the mind of Christ.

3.    *    Unite with others in prayer.  United prayer is a mighty weapon that the body of Christ is to use.

4.    *    Believe you receive when you pray.

5.    *   Confess the Word.  Hold fast to your confession of faith in God’s Word.

6.    *   Allow your spirit by the Holy Spirit to pray.

7.    *   Praise God for the victory now before any manifestation.

8.    *   Walk by faith and not by sight.  II Corinthians 5.7

PRAY FOR 100 FOLD RETURN

“Father, in Jesus’ name, I give honor to the truth and integrity of Your Word.  I thank You for the 100-fold return.  I confess before You and all the host of heaven and earth that the 100-fold return is mine.  I have given of my life and possessions to follow You.  I have given for the Gospel’s sake.  Now I know the full 100-fold return is working and on its way to me.  I confess that You are causing it to come to me in abundance.  It belongs to me.  Your Word says it is mine, so I say it is mine. I have it!”

“I receive the abundance of life.  I receive Your blessing.  It is You who give me the power to get wealth that You may establish Your covenant with me.  I thank You that the revelation knowledge of that covenant is steadily increasing in my spirit.  The Word of God is true and I know that You are alert and active, watching over Your Word to perform it in my life.

“Father, I am thankful that the blessing of the Lord makes me truly rich and You add no sorrow with it.  The loving-kindness and tender mercies of the Lord endure forever.  Goodness and mercy are mine all the days of my life in Jesus’ name. Amen. So be it! Praise the Lord!

PRAY FOR AMERICA

PRAYER FOR OUR PRESIDENT AND OUR GOVERNMENT

     Father, in Jesus’ name, we give thanks for our country and its government.  We hold up in prayer before You the men and women who are in positions of authority.  We pray and intercede for the President, the representatives, the senators, the judges of our land, the policemen, as well as the governors and mayors, and for all those who are in authority over us in any way.  We pray that the Spirit of the Lord rests upon them.

     We believe that skillful and godly wisdom has entered into the heart of our President and knowledge is pleasant to him.  Discretion watches over him; understanding keeps him and delivers him from the way of evil and from evil men.

Father, we ask that You compass the President about with men and women who make their hearts and ears attentive to godly counsel and do that which is right in Your sight.  We believe You cause them to be men and women of integrity who are obedient concerning us that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.  We pray that the upright shall dwell in our government … that men and women blameless and complete in Your sight, Father, shall remain in these positions of authority; but the wicked shall be cut off of our government and the treacherous shall be rooted out of it.

     Your Word declares that “Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD…” We receive Your blessing.  Father, You are our refuge and stronghold in times of trouble (high cost, destitution and desperation).  So we declare with our mouths that Your people dwell safely in this land and we prosper abundantly.  WE are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus!

     “It is written in Your Word that the heart of the king is in the hand of the Lord and you turn it whichever way You desire  We believe the heart of our leader is in Your hand and that his decisions are divinely directed of the Lord.

We give thanks unto You that the good news of the gospel is published in our land.  The Word of the Lord prevails and grows mightily in the hearts and lives of the people.  We give thanks for this land and the leaders You have given to us, in Jesus’ name.

JESUS IS LORD OVER THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!
