straight from scriptures on what that is Bible is Kingdom Galaxy

So, yeah, ready because I feel a lot of spirits stirring in this
-
place during something, something that's going to take
-
the Gray line into the next level.
-
It's going to take your on fire from God.
-
So the title of this message is pray changes things.
-
Pray changes things. Let me put an update for us.
-
Pray. Somebody saying pray changes
-
things. Yeah, that it's, that's right.
-
Pray tell your name. Pray changes things.
-
Pray changes things. Yeah, it changes things from
-
desert to hawkers. No, this is the timely word.
-
Because pray doesn't just help you survive.
-
Prayer how to shift seasons. OK, prayer is not just words.
-
Prayer is powerful. Prayer turns desert into
-
hoppers, battles into breakthroughs, pressure, OK into
-
testimonies OK into it turns the seasons.
-
Prayer is powerful. It changes things, I mean, And
-
so now we have all of us in our lives.
-
We have walked through a dry season, a desert season, a
-
difficult season, closing, you know, doors closing balls
-
stocking up, bodies tired. Vast, aching pressure on the
-
mind. But here's the good news.
-
The desert is not our destination.
-
The desert is a season, and so prayer changes the season.
-
Oh my God, I feel you're watching already in this.
-
Place I haven't even thought it. So prayer changes the season,
-
the decent season we've all got, but prayer changes it.
-
So God is faithful, God is powerful, God is able.
-
And so the season changes. The season shows when people
-
pray, when they pray. So God is able and he changes
-
through our prayers. He changes things, Can you say
-
and then so, yeah, haven't heard them.
-
Now let's talk to the word and I want to show you James chapter
-
5, verse 15. That's read and the prayer
-
offered in faith will make the sick person.
-
Well, the Lord will raise them. Now I want to show you this
-
powerful prayer. Of faith.
-
This is the life of Elijah. I'm going to read verse 16 that
-
while it says. Pray for each other.
-
So that you. Made me feel the prayer of a
-
righteous person is powerful and effective.
-
Elijah was a human being even as we are.
-
He prayed earnestly that it would not reign, and he did not
-
reign on the land for 3 1/2 years.
-
Again he prayed and the heavens gave reign and the earth
-
produced its crops. Hallelujah, let us pray Father,
-
we pray. Stir faith in US today, let your
-
word come alive. Let distance shifts into
-
harvest. In Jesus holy name we pray
-
somebody shine like that. Now the one who says that the
-
rain came and produced the harvest.
-
OK, so the rain produced somebody say that rain produces
-
harvest. OK.
-
This is what God is doing in this season.
-
God is just giving you relief he's not just kidding you relief
-
just barely head hold on open and making himself violence OK
-
good God he's giving you rain talks about the rain of the stir
-
that's what God is doing in the season it's releasing rain that
-
produces a harvest of drums in your life and so the.
-
Structure goes on. It is the Elijah.
-
OK, it wasn't a superhuman. It wasn't a human.
-
It's like us, but weaknesses. Elijah got tired.
-
OK, Elijah got discovered he had battles.
-
OK, I'm so very large. He knew what it was to stand in
-
a front. I like to knew what it was to
-
standing. In a different, difficult, hard
-
situation. But I love this part.
-
The Bible says he prayed. Even in the difficult, even in
-
the taste and even in the dry Sees it.
-
The Bible says he prayed. Oh, Hallelujah, Somebody said he
-
prayed that way, connected an ordinary man to an extraordinary
-
gods. So maybe you're here to tell,
-
like you're in the desert. Maybe you're in the dry season.
-
Things feel dry and stretch out. It feels delight, something that
-
has been taking too long in your life.
-
And it feels dry. It feels stagnant.
-
It. Feels like that you're in a.
-
Decent season for some, needs a health condition for some.
-
It's a financial struggle for some in these, like family
-
tension or marital strain or relationship conflict or for
-
some. For others, it is a battle of
-
the mind. Yeah, anxiety, if it is fear,
-
but here's the goodness. God's plan for you is not to
-
stay stuck in the sand. God's the time for you is not to
-
stay stuck in the desert, right? Waste.
-
God reacted you to be fruit. God reacted.
-
You reacted you to see rippers in the wasteland.
-
Somebody shall Hallelujah yeah. And So what happens and you pray
-
season shift oh Hallelujah. When you pray the season shift
-
when you pray God shows Oh my God, something is about to
-
happen in this place. I say the shift right now I say
-
the shift somebody's shift is taking place.
-
This is shift. I am going to disagree on the
-
play of each and everyone of you that God, this end is turning
-
into harbors. You're days and it's turning
-
into a hobble. No days and it's flying into
-
your hobble. Oh, come on swimmer, you see, I
-
want to go no days. It is about swim.
-
Daisy is about trying to meet your Mamas or Hallelujah,
-
somebody come on, declare it. If I say my day, Sir, he's
-
saying come up us start again Magnesia.
-
It's turning into your heart. Hallelujah, I believe by the
-
time you want information about. You're going to have revelation
-
about, you're going to have sites for prayer Hallelujah by
-
the time you have done today. You are going to play before
-
you're going to play. I see this place, I see
-
Hallelujah. You are going to pray like
-
someone who believes that. Hidden answers Hallelujah.
-
Somebody shot on NPR. I said spread power in this
-
house. Prayer.
-
Power. Come on.
-
No. Prayer is all boring.
-
It's not bothering him. It's not boring.
-
It's not bothering him. He OK, He receives your grails,
-
OK, They are reaching him. Prayer reason, a religious tool.
-
Prayer reason, a long routine. Boring.
-
OK. Prayer is powerful.
-
Prayer is a faith weapon that changes things.
-
Prayer answers everything. Praise to shift seasons.
-
Oh my God, Hallelujah. Because God is able to do way
-
more. The Bible says abundantly above,
-
exceedingly above what we can ask, all think God is able.
-
Not only I'm sensing something in this place, things are about
-
to change. Oh, I can hear the sound of
-
things are about to change. Things are about to shift.
-
This is your turning point. This is your season of shift.
-
This is where things shift. Church, you've come to this
-
place to meet with God. This is since you're about to
-
change. I am just sick to us.
-
Pray changes things. You have to deliver me this
-
thing again. Yeah.
-
Come on, somebody say pray changes things.
-
Pray changes thanks like with me.
-
Sorry, are you getting this today?
-
The prayer of faith, this is possible.
-
The prayer of faith, it's posses that the prayer of faith
-
releases who nowhere. Now just let me give this to you
-
because the prayer of faith, it starts with what God said.
-
Faith does not deny. It's not an ostrich to put its
-
head at the signing doesn't deny it.
-
There's not the brightness, but the feeling doesn't deny.
-
But faith refuses to bow to it. Five, says Jesus card.
-
This is part this is difficult, but God can set the right God
-
can suck my sis. God, tell me something that's
-
not quiet. Jesus is called, my wife stands
-
on the promises, on the character of God.
-
That's 5 grand it stands. On the word of.
-
God. But since God is young and the
-
word of God cannot fight, the fight the fight for.
-
Goddess in this place, Hallelujah somebody that's how
-
faith that's the fight. But it says God is bigger.
-
God is angle God can bring about something to change.
-
God is young God's word they ever fails.
-
So what we are doing is we are praying God's word.
-
We are praying from the promise. Somebody say I'm praying from
-
promise, suddenly I'm praying from promise, right?
-
So when you pray from promise when you pray from the word of
-
God, power is release, seize it shut when you play the word of
-
God for from the from the word of God for promise.
-
OK, so the Bible says I love this one time.
-
It says tremendous power when you pray from the promise.
-
I've got tremendous power that same child to me just right talk
-
to healing bodies, peace in mind, family restoration right
-
through it to feature tremendous power easily.
-
Somebody said power is released. So listen, problem is like the
-
light switch now when you stand to Salah, you know, create
-
heights the electricity and doesn't really height the
-
electricity, OK. It's when you flip the switch
-
what happens because it's not that you create the, you know
-
the generator say it doesn't create the power.
-
We talk about power. So the lights which you flip the
-
switch on, what it does is it connects to the power that is
-
there. That is prey.
-
Sorry. So praying is like a light
-
switch. If you flip on, you flip the
-
switch and the light shines in the Narcanus, that is prey.
-
Prey does not create the power. Prey connects us to the power
-
source. That's what we do when we pray.
-
So the prayer that releases when we pray, it's because we're
-
connected to God through prayers.
-
Hallelujah. And so, yeah, I'm flipping the
-
switch. When you try, you flip this.
-
Somebody say I'm flipping the shoes, so I say that I'm
-
flipping the sweets. Yeah, that's what we pray.
-
Now here's the adjustment that we have got to make.
-
When we try, when it comes to pray, the adjustment that we
-
have got to money, it's like we have got to stop trying.
-
It's like trying, like we are trying to convince God to candy.
-
We have got to stop trying. Like beggars begging for great
-
outside the camp. OK, because we were not You're
-
not begging for bread. You are a child of God.
-
You have access. I'm not families who think this
-
work. You're not begging them but can
-
bring up the children, the family of God.
-
You are not an outsider. You are not standing outside to
-
go. OK here we are family of so you
-
are not praying to an angry judge you are praying to a
-
loving father that response to his children.
-
I have children I know are responsible in kids.
-
So your friends are loving father so don't crying like they
-
they go digging for bread. OK push your mother begging.
-
You are a believer that's why we are we are believers.
-
I'm believers I'm praying defeat them.
-
I don't play small to it. They don't play he's a typically
-
I believe us praying with confidence to our heavenly
-
Father because they know who God is.
-
We know these our fathers are also alive.
-
All people ask in every fair Hallelujah Christ, God say in
-
our life. I'm not a beggar, I'm a
-
believer. Now let me show you another
-
powerful shift. Can I show you another shift
-
from the market? OK, how prayer changes states,
-
how prayer releases power. I'm going to show it to you in
-
Acts chapter 12. OK, I want to show you another.
Acts 12 chapter mention
-
Powerful shift. Yeah, are.
-
You really can. We go deep pressing, OK, it's
-
going deeper because Acts chapter 12, it shows us what
Acts 12 chapter mention
-
power looks like under pressure because Acts chapter 12 is a
Acts 12 chapter mention
-
pressure check. When you read Acts chapter 12,
Acts 12 chapter mention
-
you will see that the church is under the attack, persecution
-
lifestyle. One of the key leader Peter, one
-
of the key leaders arrested. OK, got it around chained up,
-
knocked up in prison. OK, let's have it.
-
It's a pressure chapter. Now this wasn't AI had a rough
-
week pressure. This wasn't like I am a little
-
stressed out pressure. This was life and death
-
pressure. Now the question is not does
-
spray work? That's not the question.
-
The question is what happens when pressure hits?
-
Because anybody can play when it's easy and comfortable and
-
off it. But what happens when the enemy
-
increases the pressure, when he turns up the hit?
-
That's when the church has to know how to play.
-
OK, we see this amazing person that shifts the whole story.
-
Now I want you to see this powerful shift that takes press.
-
It says here in Acts chapter 12 verse 5.
-
So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying
-
to God for him that you can't know that church was praying.
-
Sorry, the church was praying. That's the chef, that's the
-
powerful ship, that's the turning round, That's the
-
information. That's where the story changes.
-
That's where the season shifts. The church was praying.
-
Yeah. OK.
-
Are you grabbing all of this regulation?
-
The church is going and the Bible says that the church is
-
playing honestly. OK, that honestly, fervently we
-
see it goes well in James fire fervent.
-
The church played honestly, not casually, not half heartedly,
-
not passively, not too lightly. OK, fervently.
-
It was a little over where boxes that played fervently passionate
-
on fire and fight with, like playing a focus like fight with
-
theft. Because that's the turning
-
point. Yeah.
-
Peter was tight when train was rising.
-
Peter was gone when pray was rising.
-
Peter was locked out, but Dre was rising and the church was
-
praying. And I just want you to see this
-
because when the preacher hits, the enemy wants you to stop
-
praying and start panicky. When the pressure hates anybody
-
wants you to stop and give up your weapon of prayer and
-
exchange it for worry. But not in this house or in our
-
lives. This is a House of prayer.
-
Come on, somebody said this is a House of prayers.
-
Now I want you to see what happens here when the judge
-
prayers what happens when the church for the season's shift
-
God heaven response. OK and all of a sudden when the
-
church pride God seats an Angel in the prison cell lights out.
-
The Angel walks in and he taps it appears there and he says
-
pizza get up. He taps and also get up and all
-
of a sudden the change the change fell off and there was
-
freed up some of the shark Hallelujah.
-
That's the mower there. Leave our, then our.
-
Praying to every train, unlock every prison cell, praying
-
power. When the church prays, now is
-
the time like never before for the church to pray.
-
In these end times that we are living in, we have got to be
-
fighting all the time. Somebody say Amen, A lot of
-
prayer. So back to the question because
-
the question is not does prayer work?
-
The question is, what happens when pressure hits?
-
What happens when pressure shows up?
-
What do you do first when there's pressure?
-
What do you do first? Do you panic first?
-
Do you stroll first? Do you complain first?
-
Do you run to people first when there's pressure or do you pray
-
first? Hallelujah.
-
Praise God, because prayer of faith is not our last resort.
-
It's not on the 10 on the list When it's difficulty, it
-
challenges in pressure. OK, if prayer and faith is not
-
lost or lost a blindness, it is our first response.
-
When there's pressure and difficulty and rumours of war,
-
OK, the first response is prayer and a choice that's fasting.
-
This 21 days we are putting great banner in the Lords first
-
response. Our first response.
-
Come and say it with me. Prayer.
-
It's my first response. How many first responders do we
-
have? The honest ones.
-
Come on. Yeah.
-
So first in astonished. Yeah.
-
OK. First thing we do.
-
Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, yeah, yeah.
-
We make that phone call to him at first.
-
Oh, I got the doctors. I woke around the doctor.
-
Oh, it wasn't very much into the .0.
-
No, no, no. This job situation, this is very
-
special. What's the first thing like?
-
I got an e-mail, a phone call to my father.
-
Yeah. Oh come on somebody.
-
Because when we pray season shifts.
-
When we pray tower is released already say this because when we
-
pray there was no distance in the spurs.
-
Prayer is not limited by lights. It's not limited by time zones.
-
We can pray nuns and others different times.
-
I've never prayed for one more spraying 1 like this.
-
I've seen those off. They said this is in the Spirit.
-
Pain is not limited by location. OK?
-
So God answers faith, not location.
-
So you all pray for that child, for that family, never that
-
loved one. But if you've reached it, I
-
remember giving the trace to me of a woman who prayed for her
-
sister was dying in another country.
-
She was in the coma, but she wasn't physically there.
-
But she prayed with authority. She prayed with faith.
-
OK, who? Her sister dying in the country,
-
This is thousands of miles away. And when she tried, well, half
-
of what she woke up from the coma fully, fully resolved.
-
The doctor said this is impossible.
-
There is no distance in this place.
-
I'm fighting in this. Every citizen is true.
-
OK, so you can you pray for your family member that loved one
-
nature. God can reach them right there,
-
Clark. And you'll play releases power.
-
Unlock that person. Shake the captain's three.
-
Yeah. It plays change.
-
It brings about freedom playing right here.
-
That's what happened with the church.
-
They were praying together and suddenly former pizza was
-
released from prison because of the praise of our church.
-
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, my goodness.
-
We're going to shift some seasons in this place.
-
We're going to shift some nations in this place.
-
I'm on somebody that underestimate what happens when
-
the church prays it's not close for basically claims we're
-
shifting nations here releasing the decrease of God.
-
What can I and so pray try these things.
-
It releases power. The KJV Commission says that can
-
play and find it much I love that that's a power of prayer.
-
It's effective a further prayer. It releases power.
-
It's a lot like amazing keys. Unlocking power in the church is
-
a breaking church. Once the church where you are
-
taken, where you go to where God wants you, Is that a crazy
-
church? Come on.
-
Sorry, I've blown up in religion and no, it was great religion
-
and I got it fell out of my God. I'm not wasting my time.
-
I'm shifting a choice that's great people getting healed say
-
free delivered. That's the power of prayer.
-
That's one of the praying for one another, making sure it
-
again giants 5 we just read it says praying for each other so
-
that you may be guil. The prayer of a righteous
-
project is powerful and affect us.
-
Now notice that the healing and the power is related to
-
something simple. The healing and the power is
-
related to praying for one another.
-
There's another problem, praying for one another.
-
So prayer isn't just personal, it's communal prayer.
-
Is it just private? Just just for me, one minute,
-
OK. It's relational.
-
Prayer is a chance standing together.
-
So we are stronger together. Somebody said that we're strong
-
girls together because one of the enemy's favorite strategies
-
is to isolate. I have seen it a bit, yes.
-
And yes it yes, I have been seen it around the world.
-
The favorite strategy of Satan of the enemy is to isolate it,
-
to isolate somebody from the church.
-
Because when there's isolation, the wrong of this isolation, the
-
fighting and the fire start to endling fighting.
-
And when we come together, when we gather together, fight
-
risers, there's a mutual strengthening.
-
The fire starts burning the brighter and brighter.
-
OK, it's like firewood. If you take firewood and you
-
take one stick on its own and that stick is enlarged, it will
-
blend out fast. But if you take all the logs
-
together, that fire burns hotter and longer than just one little
-
stick on his her. Oh, I can live without church,
-
brother. I don't need the church.
-
I can find out. Oh really?
-
We come to kinda thoughts. Design, not man's.
-
This cabin is not man's play. This is the word of God.
-
We are here on God's design and we are here because of the word
-
of God. Can't create a church fan.
-
And so isolation on isolation calls faith community starts 5.
-
Yeah. It keep 5 listen, let me give
-
you something heavy. Oh, this is something heavy on
-
my out. I struggle to carry on my own
-
opinion, but the man let me just get somebody.
-
Two people in the technician. Just like that, two people come
-
together, right? So one can try for the 1000 to
-
fight, 2 can try whatever. Not 2002.
-
Which one? OK, so that's multiplication.
-
Come on, somebody. But after getting this one
-
person on his arm, I can only just carry this table while
-
shaving. The moment we get somebody else
-
coming to me for many hands makes blood work, right?
-
So now can I just get something to die?
-
Oh yeah. Here we go.
-
Move it easy, lift it very easy. We are stronger together and
-
that's what Jesus said when he talked about prayer.
-
Jesus specifically said agreement in prayer.
-
Did we choose agree shall we do all of you agree brother
-
sisters, OK, the Bible says here in response Jesus.
-
That's not the lips of Jesus Christ himself talking about
-
where yes, I've got the time in prayer and light and my present
-
in the secret place yes, but listen when we come to church
-
and we pray together. Oh my God, this power.
-
Oh, I want to read that to you Matthew 18 this 19 again.
-
Truly I tell that if 2 of you on earth agree about anything they
-
lost for it will be done for them by my father in their There
-
is power in its women of faith. When we have to do that and we
-
put our own face together simply like season.
-
Some pranksters. It's not just for my own prayer.
-
Some militras don't just need my prayer, but our prayer.
-
It's like brothers and sisters, we need to pray for it and it's
-
just to come together. We need that right through.
-
We pray together. It's not just my prayer.
-
It's together. It's agreement.
-
Somebody said we are praying. Yeah, we are praying.
-
I remember one time I forgot I left my colonizer all night
-
long. I left the car lights also the
-
next morning. What happened Steve with my car
-
battery? OK.
-
The batteries flat, right, Right.
-
So I left the lights on the night I saw the next morning the
-
batteries flat. Now doesn't mean my car is good
-
it just leaves my my battery's flat but they are now on my long
-
stuff So what do I do? Thank God from community here.
-
Same God my neighbor had to upper cables Hallelujah for
-
community Thank God that he bought his car over and so he
-
used his power of Madrid power connected to jumper cables to my
-
weakness sparks one of the sudden boom there's Ryan came in
-
my car Hallelujah. Somebody just start my car.
-
What would I do if I'm isolated all of my own islands.
-
No, I thank God we have to meet him.
-
Yeah. I said that is prayer agreement
-
that is Matthew Ange where he talks about Jesus says get
-
somebody to agree with you country shows and agree with a
-
brother and sister. We can't agreement.
-
That's agreement, power agreement, pray because
-
sometimes your battery in life is hired.
-
It's that it happens. We all live within the world,
-
OK? It doesn't mean you're dead.
-
It doesn't mean the battery, if the car is ruined or it just
-
feels that you are tired, you are worn down.
-
You've had a rough time, a difficult season, a dry season.
-
I feel dried and worn down, but thank God uses it.
-
Rather God uses a sister in our church family and you come with
-
a faith connect to your flat. I have flat right through your
-
weakness and boom jump start or I forget jump start to start it
-
again and we'll fly this right again.
-
How about somebody That's what that's what happens when we plug
-
into the church when we come into the church we plug in and
-
God used the grandma and his sister and we drive together and
-
I felt flat. I had a difficult season things
-
a bit difficult and rock with the finance.
-
I live really connecting with a brother and sister of five
-
people of five poop chance to start that battery again.
-
We'll remain in progress again. I really have some money.
-
We're not isolating ourselves such as a lie from the place of
-
hell. People think I can sit in my on
-
this basement somewhere and call myself an apostle and a prophet
-
and person into a Christ book and constant system say oh I'm
-
so it's in a fire 'cause they don't go to church.
-
It's a lie from the total failure.
-
I don't even read that Facebook account.
-
Don't even read that Facebook post Trees don't read it.
-
Go check the person out. Are they plotted in a church?
-
Lot of religious people running around and nothing not very,
-
very dangerous. We are strongly together.
-
Italian language saying we are stronger together.
-
No, they don't even deeper than active because when you pray for
-
somebody else and that's a lovely sport because when you
-
pray for somebody else, listen comes back to you.
-
God moves in. You know what's amazing when you
-
pray for somebody else, God begins to move in.
-
You're off. What happened to you John The
-
Bible says after he prayed for his friends, what happened after
-
joke pray for Easter. OK joke was in the desert.
-
We all know he was in a dry place desert very hard fun and
-
he struggled together. I'm giving us a impression here
-
today when he prayed for his friends.
-
The Bible says God restore Chile.
-
A season changed, a season shifted.
-
How did the season shift in Jobs night how he prayed for his
-
friends he prayed for somebody he prayed for his friends charge
-
Jesus oh let me just OK somebody's still sleeping.
-
Let me just wake you up and there's no child child travel 42
-
verse dead. What it says after Joe can pray
-
for his is that the Bible somebody So after job pray for
-
his friends. The Lord restored his fortune.
-
So I'm getting twice as well. OK.
-
So what does that say about pray pray shift seasons.
-
Yeah. OK.
-
If you're sitting here today and you're going from desert with a
-
struggling situation. He prays for somebody else.
-
Yeah. Mark somebody say after he
-
prayed after he prayed. So this is what I want you to do
-
this week, big one, one day, one person and try for them every
-
day this week. And I believe in God.
-
Next week you will come back with a testimony.
-
Don't you take that. Try for what prison this week?
-
Somebody that's discouraged, somebody that's struggling or
-
struggling with some finance substitution, Try for that proxy
-
every day. It is without love by 5 ability
-
to our nation body. Of course, we could be coming up
-
with your testimony. Yeah.
-
OK, because when you do that change, break, present, also
-
open, we do that job and not just individually, but in
-
families and in the church Healing France, it's like why,
-
you know, so many miracles, healing flows in this because we
-
are praying for one another. That's what we're doing in this
-
church. We are praying for one another.
-
He didn't raise up power flows in this church and there are
-
five of them become scrutagious as we are frank for one person.
-
So you pick one person this week and you pray for them first
-
every day. Pray, pray, pray.
-
Oh my God, your life will never be the same again.
-
That's a political principle from the good of God.
-
That's what happened to you. You'll come back and like, oh,
-
possible. I want to tell you, I pray for
-
that. Listen, thankfulness.
-
They've got a new job. They've got open doors.
-
Things happen in their lives. And you know what happened to
-
me? I don't know.
-
I'm telling you, prayer is powerful.
-
And if prayer is that powerful, it cannot just be optional.
-
It cannot just be left off us. It cannot just be pushed to the
-
side. Prayer has to become the prime
-
warranty. Yeah.
-
Because, you know, prayer is where power is released, prayer
-
is where teaspoons, prayer is for healing powers.
-
Power is released. God strengthens.
-
When you pray, doors open up. And so somebody said prayer,
-
said biology. Come on, sagging prayer is the
-
violent. Yeah, we are first responders.
-
That's the first call we make church prior is the priority.
-
And when train becomes your priority, God begins to move in
-
your home. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
-
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
-
Pray is not the the 10. Nonetheless, when prayer is
-
priority, God that gets to move for itself personally in your
-
life in your home. Now let's not hire.
-
Can we go higher, Lisa? OK, because pray he said go
-
away. Prayer is access.
-
Yeah, prayer is how heaven touches the earth.
-
Yeah, prayer opens heaven. Yes, my God, I feel like prayer
-
opens heaven. Yeah.
-
Now I want to show you because prayer I can say them look at
-
Jesus and look for you. Now it's the ultimate example.
-
The bonuses when he was being diagnosed so he was about to
-
William speak that size. OK, what does the Bible say he
-
was praying? Sorry, this baptism that Jesus
-
is when he was praying, the Bible says the heavens, the
-
heavens. So he was praying the heavens no
-
good, not while he was performing, not while he was
-
preaching, not while he was building a platform, not while
-
he was pulling the ministry. While he was praying, the heaven
-
stood open foot open him while he was.
-
That means praying does more than help you cope with bin
-
Laden. Pray opens heaven over your eye.
-
Some of you been saying oh God please when is my season
-
changing the only same storm of prayer?
-
Yeah. Because prayer open heaven.
-
When you pray heaven open and hit it open, something that will
-
stop starts moving, something that goes dry at the fickle, so
-
it starts moving. When you pray, get the hand
-
open. When the hand in the arm of the
-
heating flows, diffusion flows, wisdom direction comes.
-
OK, so when I play heaven and over yes, say that with me when
-
I like for you heaven. Oh, I'm saying it when I play my
-
job. Hallelujah, I said John's
-
welcome headers because that is the answer.
-
The answer is not to get yeah. So this is pride and outward
-
Heather, you don't need a perfect life follow up heaven.
-
You don't need to be perfect. You need a praying life.
-
That's what a praying life praying for like heaven.
-
So if you want heaven output of your home, try it in your home.
-
Yeah. If you want heaven open in your
-
marriage, try it in your marriage.
-
If you want heaven hoping over your children, try it over your
-
children list. If you want peace in your mind,
-
pray peace and truth and open every.
-
If you want open even if you want, just pray peace and truth.
-
And some of you, you keep on waiting for the the season to
-
ship, the atmosphere to ship before you pray.
-
But God's in this plant goes because when you pray, the
-
atmosphere shifts, the seasoned shifts when you pray, when I
-
play, atmosphere shift. Yeah, I mean, now, once you
-
understand that, pray open heaven and we'll help you to
-
understand that how to pray lost.
-
Because when you know the heaven is open, you don't come
-
hesitantly. Yeah.
-
OK, you don't come with you, you don't come to.
-
When you understand that you pray open the heaven, open the
-
access. The Bible says tongue.
-
So when you come, you know the heavenlies out, and when you
-
pray, you come both in and boss. Vague.
-
And you ask both, then stream back and avoid asking and
-
hesitantly asking. And we sometimes are friends of
-
mumbling. No, we come father, and we ask
-
poetry. That's ask it because the book
-
of James says that you don't have.
-
The reason because you don't have is because you don't know.
-
Yeah. That's let me read that to you.
-
You don't have, don't have because you don't know.
-
I meant somebody ask God. Yeah.
-
God should be the first person who else?
-
And I was speaking. Jesus said it himself.
-
He said in Matthew said my pasta.
-
You said ask, seek and knock, so that's an invitation for us to
-
ask. It says in my future percent on
-
us and it will be incomplete enough given to you see and you
-
will find no and of all we will. See you.
-
That's active fight. That's a pair of five that takes
-
bowlers. Yeah.
-
It's bowl, it's not shrinking tide, it's not hesitant, it's
-
not it's polite come on from possum God involves that's our
-
rights and as children of God we are not outsiders begging.
-
We are the children of God. So when you ask one of the.
-
Baldness. What's the nice thing about
-
that? Is you ask?
-
Big. I'm fine with the food and I
-
thought of my kids and play some story and all of that, but this
-
language when you ask big. Yeah.
-
I'm not saying it my cup, it's not just off my cup, but it's
-
under. That's your portion.
-
It's an overflow portion, overflow that's big.
-
So if you are only asking so, you are missing out on God's
-
greatness. Yeah, that's so true.
-
He can do something now, Yeah. Ask Big ask for good things, big
-
dreams that's been building it or not great dreams.
-
That's something my name doesn't make sense in national life.
-
I'm honest about this, but ask Peter, ask Peter.
-
Come on some I chase it some Psalm Channel 2.
-
Come on. And now you know that was what
-
does he say Psalm chapter 2. It says ask, ask me and I will
Psalms 2 chapter mention
-
give you not just Bracknell. I'm dancing all for bragging,
-
but I'll ask and I will give you some chapter 2 besides, thank
-
you Steve. OK, some of us need to start
-
trying bigger praise. We thank God for the flail of
-
the food. Bless the food, Lord bless the
-
family meter. But what a power you ask not
-
just for bragging. No, Jesus said the word of God.
-
Psalmist said Psalm chapter 2 beside the monster.
Psalms 2 chapter mention
-
I will give you. I'll give you muscle.
-
I'll give you Yuka. I'll give you the Nasus.
-
I'll give you South Africa. Think big.
-
Have a big vision. Travel the ball.
-
Ask God for something big. Let me.
-
Yeah, it is. I've got the best.
-
How many sources you really got? So it says the chance to resign.
-
Ask for me and I will give you Elijah.
-
Pregnant Elijah. Preference.
-
A big prey these short seasons, Elijah Tray to Elijah tray that
-
came from a drought to be doubtful because he knew he's
-
God. He knew God's power.
-
Elijah knew listen, I am talking here to a mini God.
-
I am praying here to a God that owns the entire universe that
-
created everything. And God says that I will
-
transfer the wealth of the wicked to the just to the
-
church. Get ready for the wealth
-
transfer that's coming to the church.
-
So us God big. Why play small when we serve a
-
big God? Why play small when they should
-
put it's like stop limiting God, take the limits off because all
-
things are possible. With God.
-
As a white principle with God is big God is ready to enlarge.
-
Why did you need to bless you to unflow you and sell all speak
-
tell your name to ask speak ask ask, ask, ask ask for the
-
mentions. Yeah so yeah, we are talking
-
about pray becoming a pray one year and you're like yes, mind
-
you, this is stealing in your heart.
-
You're like just what I'm going to be off or I'm going to be
-
kind of great. I want to have fire bail off
-
like innate thinking. Maybe send this poster.
-
I want to become a prayer. I want to commit to powerful
-
prayer when I don't have an hour.
-
Let me just set you free. Powerful prayer is not about the
-
left. I'm sending somebody free.
-
Otherwise, it's not about how many hours time, how long the
-
prayer is the the path of prayer is a hard lost It's that real
-
genuine heart to get shift with the world that's powerful prayer
-
effective. It's pretty.
-
It's not about fancy words. I I saw this friend of the guns.
-
I just like open honest with the door.
-
There we go. I just I don't have to don't
-
play catch IV version. Bible.
-
I don't have to play any of that.
-
I could just be myself. It's not powerful prayer.
-
It's not about fancy work outside dying Kingdom confined.
-
But no, I just like the Middle Kingdom come.
-
It's a relationship with my dad, OK, I'm talking to a friend.
-
That's my God. That's the relationship we have
-
as children. That's how my teams talk to me
-
as. They don't.
-
So it's not fancy, but it's not perfect prayer.
-
It's not funny pray. It's a genuine pray for the
-
heart. That's a powerful and changing
-
the bottle. And that translation says I have
-
heartfelt prayer. That's a heartfelt all.
-
Sometimes you can play anywhere. You can play comes on.
-
You can play in the kitchen while washing up music.
-
You can play in that work. You can play in the hospital
-
room. You can play on the school
-
runner in a difficult conversation.
-
You can pray in the middle of the back of the single
-
situation. You can pray right then.
-
Prayer is not for professional Christians.
-
Prayer is for everyone of us. Everyone you got to our prayer
-
is for everyone. Everyone, Oh my God is not
-
asking you to come up with this big performance.
-
All the performance of prayer. God is like just being yourself
-
and other chats. It's a million for all.
-
It's in the nature of the world. The only conversation told me to
-
the court and so he's inviting you to connect.
-
That is prayer something that have complicated prayer so much.
-
It's like a child calling their father and I sit with my kids
-
when I came against my son. It's that some cultures, it's
-
really nice. And it's a child calling the guy
-
down. I'm stuck.
-
I need help. Yes, I've done that Comes for
-
the books. That is when the day comes when
-
the child calls. Come on, family, you know what
-
I'm talking about. When your child call you, what
-
do you do? When your child calls you, what
-
do you do? You just you go to.
-
Yeah, Mommy, I need help. Like you've been wondering one
-
of my stunts will be done. But see, somebody said dad and
-
yes, my son, what is it? That's how somebody is and the
-
father doesn't come and show and give a lecture.
-
Why are you not stop writing? Feel like no, he counts and he
-
helps. That's our God.
-
He's not a condomi card. He's not an Antifa and he's like
-
they are going out my son and my daughter.
-
What's happening with this e-mail?
-
What's happening with this phone call?
-
What's happening with God is involved.
-
God wants to know everything. Tell him all the detail.
-
We cannot hide anything from him anyway.
-
He sees everything. Some people think oh nobody
-
sees. Well, I'm now in the house all
-
by myself. I can do this surprise.
-
But God says please come on. Oh we need to hide this away.
-
This is God bless everything. So he gives us all time all the
-
detail anyway. Just be honest and really not
-
going to Goddess out God. Let's just talk about this for a
-
moment, please. So when I feel stuck, you don't
-
have to fix it a lot. When I feel stuck in difficult,
-
you don't have to fight it down to one line.
-
It's just like father and it's like yes, my supper, yes, my
-
daughter. Just try not to you dad.
-
I'm stuck. That helped, like it helped goes
-
like yes, and father comes. So it's not the length of
-
prayer. It's not how many hours in
-
prayer. Short old prayer can be a very
-
strong prayer. Yeah.
-
A short. Another A5 player, very strong.
-
Let me give you some short, powerful prayers #1 Lord help me

-
1 short ball pray 15 years adds I can take you through the Bible
-

-
Remember Joshua? Joshua played a short this time
-

-
enlarged vagina tree. God bless you God and all this
-
territory. Even though you spread on your
-
fruit 20 seconds like that, short ball face strong.
-
That's strong praise. And so we need to start praying
-
like that. And you play short ball, 5 plays
-
on the go, something amazing happens.
-
You stop seeing prayer as an event on a Sunday morning in
-
church and pray becomes a lifestyle every day, Monday,
-
Tuesday on the go, every month of prayer.
-
And you become a prayer. You all are a prayer house.
-
You're a house to pray. Whatever you are, you're a
-
Playhouse. Praying comes.
-
You just float the prayer of what?
-
That it just becomes a lifestyle famous on the go.
-
Yeah. You.
-
Start turning one way very quickly into prayer.
-
Oh God, I got this phone call. Did you try to turn that one
-
into print? Then panic or something's
-
happening quote just to turn that panic into pray very quick.
-
It's on that temptation. Something's happened, something
-
quickly just turn into a break very quickly.
-
Just reverse the situation just just that season very quickly
-
the final situation as well. I have condition something
-
there's a symptom to look when the structure changes I'm here.
-
Well how long did that take us Who wants to move this training
-
my body by the structure Jesus I'm here we are not talking
-
about hours of praying. We talk about short fall of
-
heart craves in the on the boat while I'm driving while I'm at
-
the ships grocery shopping. I'm praying Thank you, Jesus
-
that train life pray on the gods of lifestyle and so that's how
-
you become pray. Do you know this the first of
-
the model and that's his. This is the first in the Bible
-
that says you become prayer. This is Aja was operating in the
-
spirit of prayer. This other prayer on a Sunday
-
morning at church. You become pray and lifestyle
-
Monday 5 Tuesday 5 Wednesday 5 at work 5 Karan Masa.
-
I'm praying thank you Jesus everyone.
-
It is in conversation with God all the time.
-
It's a hardly you don't even have to thank you.
-
You can change this yes, you can't walk us that rest Thank
-
you all this whole place glaze with this short praise.
-
Now let's end when we start full server charge job the fire of
-
stolen because that is one of the greatest examples in the
-
bottle of the drought to harvest prayer and I love this prayer of
-
life very powerful prayer. Droughts of flawless.
-
Prayer. That's another job.
-
Now. Again, Biosis is OK Elijah was a
-
human just like us. He had weaknesses, discouraged,
-
got tired, battles. They were only sitting.
-
He's like what? What?
-
He wanted to give that up. He wanted to throw in the towel.
-
But there was 1 faith weapon that he refused to give up.
-
He refused to give in. He prayed.
-
Somebody said he prayed and lied.
-
You prayed to shift the system, trying to shift the seas from
-
dao to harvest and Tory bright and the headed shot now, right
-
now, this funnel tension. The heavens shot and he prayed
-
again and the skies open. Rain produced a harvest and this
-
behind and here's why I hear the role is you're desert.
-
You are not half powerless. That's.
-
What I do? Yeah, in Mars.
-
You are not powerless in your desert because God is giving you
-
the truth to shift. God is giving you the keys.
-
You, the you, the authority is putting the keys and authority
-
in your hand to shuffle seasons. God be shuffled.
-
You are not powerless in your desert.
-
You are not powerless in that dry, difficult season.
-
God has given you the keys to shift it and we see this in the
-
story of Elijah gives us the strategy. 2 prayers.
-
Two prayers #1 the pray. The first pray that he prayed.
-
Lord shut it down. Shut down what have been
-
draining you. Shut down via secrets, Shut down
-
the pressure. Shot down that stealing,
-
killing, and his strength has been coming around the line.
-
Shot it down. That's the number one crazy.
-
Shut it down. Shut on that strain, that fear,
-
shut on that panic, that stress. Shut it down.
-
That was pray #1 because there was 2 prayers.
-
I want you to see this one pray shots at the other three others.
-
1. Craig closes OK, what is
-
draining you And another opens, one has been held back.
-
I want you to understand this, to press the one shots and the
-
one opens and so the first one because God has given you the
-
Kingdom authority. And that's exactly the finding
-
and losing exactly because the binding and losing back in the
-
Bible says that Jesus says that I give you the keys of the
-
Kingdom. What you bind on earth is God.
-
What you loose on them is loose. Somebody's getting this real
-
laser. Somebody's getting this little
-
bears. Wow.
-
We stand down the enemy and we open your royal power.
-
I want you to see this. This is a very powerful prayer
-
because God gave you the Kingdom keys and those keys that move
-
through prayer. I said, some of you need to pray
-
that first kind of a prayer. I said, Lord, I shut it down.
-
I shut down. I'm sickness in my heart.
-
I shut it down. I shut down fear and addiction
-
and shut down. Don't stop saying because Elijah
-
did not stop there. Yeah, it shut it down.
-
But then he prayed again. And the second pray that he
-
prayed, Lord, open it up. Open the up the front case of
-
heaven. Open the my doors open favour
-
open healing, open direction and wisdom.
-
Open it up, open opportunities, open provision and peace and
-
joy. Open it up to my doors.
-
Open it up, Lord, open the flavor of God again, because
-
prayer is not just how to survive in the desert, but it's
-
how you step into authority. Open the door for heaven's
-
right. Hallelujah, that is true.
-
What is shifting the season? Come.
-
I'm just giving you the performance.
-
He signed the carrying over here today.
-
But your desert is not forever. Your desert is not forever.
-
Your rain is coming. Your harvest is decks.
-
Your desert season dry season is not forever.
-
It's not the best of nation. Maybe it's just the falcony I
-
should have fighting this price. It's shifting.
-
Somebody shot. Let it lie big life.
-
Yes, more open the heavens. Let it lie in this price from
-
desert to harvest. And if you open it, then you can
-
open it now. Because the very same God of
-
answered and Elijah is the very same God we serve.
-
It's the same God and he can open it.
-
He's open the skies, then he can open it now.
-
I mean, all right, just let's turn to our feet.
-
And we're not ending this message with just information.
-
We're ending it with acclamation.
-
So today we are going to do what the Bible says, OK, Are you
-
ready for this? Because the Bible talks about
-
the prayer of fight. We're not going to pray the
-
prayer of fight. And then I think the Bible also
-
says try for one another. So that's what we are going to
-
do in just a moment. OK, Now before we pray, because
-
we are the leading God for rain harvesting every dry place, I
-
just want to see two categories. First one, if that is you and
-
you need healing in your body, it's pain or sickness, weakness,
-
anxiety, panic, sleeplessness, just we can stop your ass.
-
Just want to see what you're going to apply for 123-456-7910,
-
right? OK friends, put your hands back
-
down. Now the second category because
-
we're going to apply for one another.
-
If you are in a decent area, might be any area of your line
-
might be finances, relationships, OK, maybe seeing
-
your health situation, pressure and hope finally strained
-
relationship pain. Just lift your hand.
-
If that is you right now. I just want to see those hands
-
that that's it, that's it. OK, thank you.
-
This is the first moment. Put your hand back down again
-
because the Bible says praying for one another.
-
That means you don't have to fight alone.
-
I want to sign that very clearly there are whites, struggles and
-
whites in life that you are never made to carry on.
-
I'm telling you about the truth of God.
-
That's why God plant you in a church.
-
There are certain vessels and certain things you're not meant
-
to fight the OK. There are rights and struggles
-
and vessels that's meant to be shared in prayer and we come
-
together. We say white blood.
-
Let's subtle this thing right now.
-
You've played over it over that situation 1000 before now let's
-
put 10,000 all understanding this great thing.
-
Is it that simple possible yes and we thank God for a church.
-
I thank God for we need the body together that we can come
-
together and play for one another and you will see after
-
the young is shifting your life. This is the word of all this is.
