  13. And now to today's message.

  14. Amen, let's take our gold fashion from Joshua one verse eight.

  15. The spoke of the Law shall no depart out of

  20. God richly bless you. Why don't you take your seats?

  21. So let's see how best we can round up a

  22. month of other in prayer, hallelujah. And our text has

  23. been from look chapter eleven, verse one. Now it came

  24. to pass as he was praying in a certain place

  25. when he seized that, one of his disciples said to him, Lord,

  26. teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.

  27. Amen.

  28. One of the key things as you approach, as we

  29. try to get to know God.

  30. Remember God is not a man. Amen.

  31. God is not a man. God is not He is

  32. not like us. He's not in our leak. Halenelujah. God

  33. is God, our creator and our maker, because is it

  34. sometimes most of him that Look, if you don't learn

  35. how to reverence God, still we are still talking that

  36. we are coming to our Father.

  37. I think that's that's where were ended.

  38. If you don't reference you understand that God, it's a

  39. holy God.

  40. Maybe that's where I'm going.

  41. It's not just a deity like the other deities and

  42. the idols and of this were created by human hands,

  43. by his God.

  44. He's not a man, he's not a co equal.

  45. So that we will reference him in our heart, in

  46. our attitude. He said, when all these enterprises, pere enterprises

  47. and the rewards they are linked to serving God, on

  48. the front lines, and I see a believer that you

  49. you you don't want to save God, but you want

  50. the words it will happen. You will be frustrated. You'll

  51. be betting up. You will be betting up. You'll be

  52. challenged by sata. God said if you ana you and

  53. he says, I'm a holy God.

  54. So you watch your life. You watch your life.

  55. Yeah, people are praying in churchill, but you look at

  56. their life and you know the immediately saying in Ali

  57. they are no praying and were called forward for the

  58. first that prayer no camel. But afterwards then like I said, no,

  59. where did you learn that from? It's a waste of effort.

  60. So you'll be frustrated. God is a holy God, and

  61. you want to stay in us saying we are depending

  62. on you. We are coming to have conversation with a

  63. holy God, and all our gun.

  64. Thens are soiled. Hallelujah.

  65. Next month we are let me talking about next month

  66. order in our conversations, as that's going.

  67. To be very interesting. Hallelujah.

  68. Amen, Oh God, God have mercy on us.

  69. Hallelujah.

  70. We pray, and then after the prayer will not the

  71. thing that God does in like you want us to

  72. be doing.

  73. We just do it. We end up and big gossip

  74. and all kinds.

  75. Of things, and then we nanify all our prayer efforts

  76. forgetting that God is holy God and the Holy Spirit

  77. will energizes us. That's for me, For me, Amen, it's

  78. not that you don't see things. So it's not that

  79. people don't hurt you who come to that. It's not

  80. that you don't see all the things that are going on.

  81. Pat when you look at the presence of God. You

  82. have to go to God, and you don't want your

  83. prayer turnelus and lines to be clocked.

  84. You will follow God.

  85. You imitate God in his holiness because you know now

  86. when you are coming to God with staying garments the

  87. angels protocol demands that you be hindered. Protocol demands that

  88. the angel says, stay off. He said, Holy God, you can't.

  89. You can't approach. If you dare you you die.

  90. He'll kill you.

  91. The brightness of his countenance will try to kill you.

  92. So better go cleanse your aart, come and hold those conversations.

  93. He's not a man. It's not a usual confidant and

  94. gossip confidant.

  95. So you check yourself.

  96. You check your relationships, because he has said that our

  97. relationship is not just we and him, Halene Louiah. So

  98. you need grace, you need you need resources, Haleneluiah. God

  99. is a Deity's not like us. We are falling off

  100. on holy beans. And I'm saying, ye're mouth and than not.

  101. This aspect of his being is ignored. And when we

  102. ignore it, we fumble and stumble in our approach to him.

  103. We famble and stop you. He said, shut up, shut up,

  104. clean up your act, forgive go and say sorry.

  105. Halleluiah. You look this prayer thing and the only man.

  106. Will wrestle with you, will wrestle with you until you

  107. yield to his persuasion. And then the peace of God

  108. that pans up all understanding. He says it to mount

  109. up to form a world and a garrison around your minds.

  110. So long as you say me as for this Christian life,

  111. I will live it according to my terms.

  112. Forget about prayer. There's no order in your prayer life.

  113. You'll be there.

  114. That That's why we say, is there there two blessings?

  115. For it's meant for all all the children of God.

  116. So long as God has said, oh this this my son,

  117. this is my daughter. She has she's genuine and since

  118. here in a bonnet, gain confession, and so gay grant

  119. him entrance into the Kingdom of God.

  120. Then Holy Spirit, WHI seal you. But when we.

  121. Grieve him, when we live a life that grieves him,

  122. and then he falls up, So the grace of lies

  123. that we need, we don't. We can't hear what he

  124. wants us to do. And that's why we come to

  125. tear three blessings. Where our blessings are tied to the

  126. specific assignment for which He created us and redeemed us

  127. in due time.

  128. That is where the res is.

  129. It's attached to executing the will of God for your life.

  130. David is well known by everyone because that was it.

  131. He executed God's will for his life, cooperated with God,

  132. and became the greatest king of that.

  133. Gouse.

  134. He was a man of God's own heart. So when

  135. you don't and you are just loitering around in the kingdom,

  136. like we say, kingdom lloids, you're just there're just there.

  137. Why should they bless you? Why should he even annoint

  138. you to do what? Because the anointing goes with the

  139. identification and execution of that assignment that he has on

  140. your life, the reason why He created you, and the

  141. holy space is just.

  142. Red and waiting Harlen Luria.

  143. And remember he says, the weapons of our warfavy are

  144. not canal weapons, My Mighty through God to the pulling

  145. down of strongholds in our life. You think canality can

  146. pull down strongholds insult for insult, and the things that

  147. sometimes mushrooms and then flourishes in church, gossiping, bad biting, envy, jealousy.

  148. This one said this, this one said that, this one,

  149. I'll talk to you again.

  150. You think that it's going to get you.

  151. There no no doubt that when the magician appears in

  152. church we all run to him.

  153. Harley Lulia.

  154. You know what I'm talking about, because that why you

  155. don't need any conditionalities for holiness. And then we get

  156. duped and then we think that we say it is God,

  157. God who said into the magician pastor he told me

  158. everything in my life. Or he even mentioned my phone

  159. number and said, well, what do you mean by that?

  160. You think the devil is She said, the devil doesn't

  161. know your phone number, your house number. God is not

  162. interested in football us saying, look, there's a war to.

  163. Be fox should stop the entertainment.

  164. In the house of God, Halen Loujah your telephone number.

  165. And then the churches there's healing and claiming that read look,

  166. read the word and let us let's open ourselves and

  167. let the Holy Spirit teach us.

  168. And you know, look, look, hey, God, God is serious

  169. about this war.

  170. That's why he sent Jesus Christ to come and die.

  171. There's not a time for entertainment. We put our food

  172. aside for three days, three nights, we are not eating,

  173. and then you come in to entertain.

  174. Hallelujah, Amen, hallelujah.

  175. So fundamentally, God demands holiness before the conversation can even begin.

  176. Before the conversation we then begin. God demands holiness.

  177. Be holy.

  178. If I am holy, hallelujah, Holiness in thought, words, and actions.

  179. It simplifies our approach to Him through the Holy Spirit,

  180. who lives and dwells within her.

  181. The only spirit will facilitate it.

  182. When your thoughts about Him, Amen, your thoughts about your

  183. neighbor and all those thing when they are well, and

  184. you will realize that you won't struggle in prayer. It's

  185. always spontaneous. Anytime that you find out that your prayer.

  186. Life has stalled. Just go back to God. Impenitence David's

  187. prayer and out crying is some wanted now? He says that,

  188. such little God, you know my heart me, you know

  189. my anxious door. See if there is anything we keep

  190. away in me, and leave me, and leave me in

  191. perhaps ever lasting. Such why has the Holy Spirit gone silent?

  192. And if you have enjoyed that thraiers the excitements of

  193. working in the holy spray? When he shouts down, oh,

  194. you will be miserable. I don't know about me, but

  195. when me I offend and we all offend him. There's

  196. no man in this world that never says so time

  197. and time were all offend, it will be my most

  198. miserable day. So that will tell you that. Look, there

  199. are some things no good. Don't go there, he said,

  200. no good area. Then we are maturing. Then we are

  201. learning more about God, he said, be like me. The

  202. things that he doesn't like, don't go there. It will

  203. club your prayer channels. Your prayers will be in effected,

  204. and the devil will have the advantage. It's a war.

  205. It's a cosmic war. Prayer is not for fun, it's

  206. for war. A simplace because the lost prayer sounds and

  207. look at it, thenis welfare. Just as said, you want

  208. me to teach you how to be effective in your prayer.

  209. Can this outline our Father, who are in heaven, hallow

  210. it be thy, nay, like kingdom come that will be

  211. done here on earth. I said, teach down in heaven.

  212. Give us this they daily bread. Forgive us our debts,

  213. as we forgive those who trespass against us. Leaders not

  214. into temp tastes, but deliver as from the evil. One

  215. nine is the kingdom, the pie and the glory forever

  216. and ever.

  217. This is why he gave them. This is this.

  218. Simple outline that he gave them that every day, make

  219. sure that you pray, cover these areas and you will

  220. be good. And we said it starts off with praise,

  221. It starts off with seeking pardon. It starts off with

  222. seeking protection, divine protection, daily protection from his present. Starts

  223. off for demanding our provisions for this life. It starts

  224. over understanding that they are kingdom priorities. Indeed, that is

  225. what Jesus touched first. Kingdom priorities. The things that thatches

  226. God's heart, that he wants to be seen, is seen

  227. down in his world, not our world. In his world,

  228. he said he you will end up. Make sure you

  229. end up with praise and thanksgiving in advance. Harleelujah amen.

  230. And the Holy Spirit who dwells within us. He's the

  231. one who, if you like, connects us deeply with the

  232. holiness of God, not superficial, deeply with the holiness of God.

  233. That's why Jesus said, is the teacher.

  234. And you wrestle with you experientially that when you are

  235. growing in the Lord. Like I said, you know the

  236. likes and dislikes. And for me, I always determined that, Look,

  237. I will let the almost be dependent on you. Hallelujah amen. Me,

  238. me and you, Me and you. We have a fight,

  239. and me I don't fight. You fight, Amen. You Maybe

  240. I don't fight too, you saying what the boy said,

  241. it's fine you fight. Wh I know that because my

  242. eyes also pick up my ass to fight with you.

  243. Then the Holy Spirit will come.

  244. But you you're not hearing from him, because if you

  245. hear from him like I'm here, the fight, No, we

  246. no fight. It takes two to fight a child of God.

  247. You won't fight outside even that one Christ forbidden. But

  248. you come to church and come and fight in church.

  249. Hey hale yea. So the born again experience makes.

  250. All enables us to take a rather huge step admitting

  251. this requirement or conditionality of holiness. Once you get born again,

  252. big gigant take step towards being recognized as a holy person.

  253. Why the seal of the Holy Spirit, it opens the

  254. flat gates. That's why we keep on saying, Look, let

  255. us always examine, let us not hesitate, let us not

  256. be hesitating, always evaluating our bonn again experience with God.

  257. Once we know that one is genuinely is intact, then

  258. number two will come to the holiness aspect, because the

  259. holiness tends the word progressive. Like I'm saying, as you

  260. grow and mature, there are some things that you won't

  261. go there at all, but when you are young, and

  262. you may stumble them for But so long as you

  263. are in the school of the spirit, you are doing

  264. your devotional life. You are coming to church where you

  265. are being mented, you are being coached, You're being taught

  266. the elementary principles of the Word of God, and you

  267. are taking those lessons and applying those truths in your life.

  268. You will grow. You will grow.

  269. God is so desiral and the thing that happens to

  270. us in our Christian life. Look, every time I say it,

  271. I have nothing to do with it. Oh, by God

  272. and awful God and all through God. God does everything.

  273. That's why we say it is His life, not our lives.

  274. You just yield. He will do it. The morning prayers.

  275. How do we get up in the morning and pray?

  276. You wake you up? Where do we get the song?

  277. So he will DeFore say the song? And we come

  278. to the Romans eight twenty five. He says, well, it

  279. says in the place of prayer, we don't even know

  280. what to see.

  281. We don't even know how to start.

  282. And he said, but the only exputing through signs and grownings,

  283. through signs and grownings, next intercession for the sense of

  284. God through signs and groanings, because his presence in our heart.

  285. Can you get this mystery? He says, it presents alone

  286. in the heart. It is a put to know our

  287. deeper needs. When you are signed and you see that

  288. person and say this person will make it good wife,

  289. he has seen it.

  290. He knows it.

  291. And if that person, he knows the person. So when

  292. you are praying quir di quack word, you're saying that

  293. and then the Holy Speed said, Papa, don't give it

  294. to her. Don't give it to her, Halenlivia. That is

  295. why you don't joke with the Holy Spirit. So even

  296. when I said you're wrong, he will correct them because

  297. the Bible says he interseees for us according to the

  298. will of God for our lives, Harlene Louiah.

  299. So sometimes you pray for something and then you bring

  300. you something.

  301. Initially it's like hold on, but this is not and

  302. then you go closer and then maybe maybe like a

  303. gift for you openly said, wow, I even was prepared

  304. to settle for something lower. But look at what God.

  305. That's what it means. By he will give you the

  306. desires of the heart. You realize that even what he brings.

  307. If you said I wanted a bluepen and it brings

  308. you a red pen, immediately you get the red pen

  309. and say, ah, I should have asked for red, and

  310. you tell about I like this one than.

  311. The blue that I add. That's it, Harlen Louiah. Amen.

  312. So the bone again experience mixed enables us to take

  313. it rather a huge step admitting this requirement of being holy.

  314. For I am holy because God not only washes and

  315. cleanses us of all our persons. But the seal of

  316. the Holy Spirit in us positions us as believers for

  317. constantincies and the supernatural need support needed for effective prayer.

  318. Can I take that again?

  319. You see, because when you're saying, he will rebuke you.

  320. When you repent, you are cleansed. That's why the cornliness conditionality.

  321. The Holy Spirit helps us meet it. So once you

  322. cooperate with him, then you are all shared into the

  323. presence of God by the Holy Spirit. You are qualified, Amen,

  324. because the Holy Spirit seal has now been able to

  325. cleanse us from passing. Ongoing saying will be brought to

  326. our attention. We repent, they are cleanse future. Since whenever

  327. they come and we hit and we fall, if the

  328. Bible says seven times, he's going to give us a

  329. helping hands raise up again watch us. That's as cleanse

  330. us so we can have and continue to have that

  331. fellowship with Him.

  332. Halenelujah amen Amen.

  333. I've mentioned Romans eight twenty six to twenty seve you

  334. can put it down. It's likewise the Spirit helps us

  335. in our weakness, for we do not know what to

  336. pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes

  337. for us. We've grownings too deep for words, and you

  338. sech his hearts knows what is the mind of the spirit,

  339. because the spirit intercedes for the sayings according to the

  340. will of God. And order in prayer demands understanding of

  341. this fundamental rule. In prayer, you are approaching a holy God,

  342. and therefore be mindful of your thoughts, words, and actions before, during,

  343. and after. Can I take that again as we try

  344. and wrap up the key thing about God is not

  345. a man. It is not like us. Let's approach him

  346. with reverence.

  347. Amen.

  348. Order in prayer demands understanding of this fundamental rule in prayer.

  349. You are approaching the Holy God, and therefore be mindful

  350. of your thoughts, your worts, and action. Now listen before, during,

  351. and after, before, during, and after, so before you know

  352. that every morning I will go hey, I just need

  353. to be careful and mindful.

  354. Before.

  355. If I mess up and the prayer time arms, you

  356. can't pray theory. Sometimes we struggling prayer. Your mind this

  357. mine say down will pose it. It is when you're

  358. about to pray that your mind is running off and

  359. running off and running off that tomorrow morning there's going

  360. to be vengeance there for you. And then you are

  361. wandering away from these thoughts and when you entertain them,

  362. you can't pray. You find out that you are a

  363. priorized and even after you are prayed, now were finish, Okay,

  364. I'll finished with you only goes Now, let me go

  365. and deal with him in my canal strength and go,

  366. say my friend. Then you find out that the prayers

  367. are being delayed. You are not learning your lessons. Remember,

  368. like always see the experience that you must pass it

  369. to theory practicals. If you don't pass the practicals, you

  370. feel God will never promote you.

  371. He won't mess up. Hallelujah. Amen.

  372. God is not only holy, remember he is our creator

  373. and our maker, so he therefore demands humility. Also very

  374. important in prayer and the seventh at an attitude. As

  375. we approved the throne to make our petitions. We've talked

  376. about holiness. It's humility. You God, he's a creator maker.

  377. He demands humility from a servant because he's going to answer.

  378. But when he answers, as a servant, are you prepared

  379. to take those instructions and implement them. Sometimes we just pray, pray,

  380. prayer and work away, we pray. God gives the Oh, no, son,

  381. you are going. Can I also speak to you? No, no, no,

  382. no no, I've already made mar We pray, and then

  383. we just give God all the instructions and we walk away.

  384. And God is saying, ah, I thought we were in

  385. a conversation. You asked me for this, and I'm giving

  386. you the step that is going to bring about and

  387. you've worked off. No, I don't want it this way.

  388. I said, rain, The rain should come immediately. Oh, I

  389. have a good did you here? Jeremia twenty nine eleven

  390. Space I spoke to German that the thoughts that I

  391. have for you, they are good, good thoughts.

  392. They are good plans to give you a future, to

  393. give you hope.

  394. He said, bye. You come and pray with me when

  395. you seek me with all your heart. He said, I

  396. will be found when you sack for me with.

  397. All your heart. Can you hold on? Why not these?

  398. I'm going to give you a good husband. No, no, no, no,

  399. I want him in the university now. And God says,

  400. I look here, amen.

  401. So yes, God has done descended to stoop down and

  402. be friend with us. But he nonetheless demands our appreciation

  403. of that master seven relationship. Amen, we should come to

  404. God in the mindset of the heart of preparedness to

  405. do his every will and command, because He will give

  406. you the instraction. He will give you the feedback what

  407. to do to get you into that blessing and answer seven.

  408. You must be prep you must be humble to do it.

  409. Amen.

  410. We know about the story of him the Syrian general

  411. that when he wanted the miracle, and he said, go

  412. and dip yourself seven times in the Jordan, evins, I

  413. have some better reverse in my hometown. And then and

  414. then the seven said, ah, you are.

  415. Expecting him to do it this way?

  416. And God says, yes, do it until he did it

  417. and then boom low and the miracle breakfall. So sometimes

  418. we go to God in prayer with a certain mindset.

  419. Now the prophet comes, gives you the instruction for the

  420. miracle to burst out in your life. God speaks, gives

  421. you direction. He said, no, I thought that you come,

  422. and there you come and lay hands. So so if

  423. you didn't, then I don't want it.

  424. And time God, nay man, you know that what happened

  425. to him is a Talian lesson. Immediately repent it.

  426. Say it's true, he said, say Johnny, okay, let me

  427. go and do Jordan and then boom. It takes humility. Hallelujah.

  428. So not only onliness humility. And once again I'm using

  429. the words intentionally. God is God, but he has condescended

  430. to stoop down and be friends with us. Let us

  431. not see God as I call equal, cryer and revere him. Amen,

  432. because we say that helps you, because then you tremble

  433. at God's weart. You tremble at God's weart, the church.

  434. Will be a healthy place. God is not just interested

  435. in India.

  436. Me. Yeah, as I stand here and we find ourselves

  437. in church, I'm not interested in God answering my prayers alone.

  438. I'm interested because it's the church is something, he said.

  439. It's a ballule that God plants within our heart. You

  440. want everybody in the church in the Kingdom to equally

  441. do well and to succeed. So if me alone my

  442. prayers are being answered and your prayers are not being answered,

  443. I'm not going to be happy because the problems will

  444. come back on me. Halen Loujah. So you want everybody's

  445. prayers to be answered. And this is the way that

  446. God has taught us.

  447. He said, let's do it that way.

  448. We will have much more effectiveness in our prayer efforts

  449. if we all look say God for who is.
