  13. And now to today's message.

  14. Amen, let's take a conversion from Joshua one 's aid.

  15. This book of the Law shallow depart out of my mouth,

  16. but I shall meditate in it to day at night

  17. that I may observe to do according to all that

  18. is written in But then I will make my way

  19. prosper us, and then I will have good success in

  20. Jesus' name.

  21. Amen, why don't you take your seats and.

  22. Let's continue our discourses on how best we can bring

  23. order into our prayer lives. Halleluier, So I said a

  24. halleluier Amen. And just by way of break up, we

  25. have learned we want to continue to believe and understand

  26. that prayer is a lend, discipline, or enterprise, and it.

  27. Has to be mastered.

  28. In our work with God. Say amen to that, hallelujah.

  29. It's something that is an art, it is a skill

  30. because the Bible teaches it a lot o texts for

  31. the month pints at that when the disciples, one disciple

  32. came and asked the Lord to teach us how to pray,

  33. just as John taught his disciples to pray. They were

  34. praying all right, but they realized that there was a

  35. remarkable difference between the prayer life of Jesus Christ and

  36. then their own prayer lives. They saw how affected Jesus'

  37. prayer lives world simply because yes, he committed himself to

  38. praying every morning, at night odd hours, et cetera, et cetera.

  39. But then when they look at the prayer results, the

  40. outcome of his prayer enterprises and discourses with God, they

  41. realized that there was, or they should or must be,

  42. something to it that needs to be learned. And Jesus

  43. Christ oblige them. But what I want us to take

  44. note that is the fact that we're saying is another

  45. and skill, but it is leent and perfected by constant

  46. and consistent practice. Amen, constant and consistent practice, and we

  47. need to remember that prayer it's for a lifetime and

  48. he has to be lent and practice.

  49. We are saying all the days, you know.

  50. So if you have a prayer life, which is it

  51. stops that stop start post, you're not going to be

  52. able to scale halily.

  53. We're going to come to that. And the ba Away

  54. says at all time.

  55. So God wants to see a certain consistent in our

  56. prayer life advocate, I want you blot it when it

  57. comes to our relationship, that consistent essential of prayer by

  58. saying prayer and all the you know, that's what we

  59. have couched, kick started. We're saying to the five fear

  60. high payments, praised and invariably saying, erhaps we stay our girl.

  61. Every morning we should be handled. Jesus taught.

  62. He taught it's part of the Amen Hallenlujah in God.

  63. As I'm saying, once we make it a practice, we

  64. study a lifetime hal and then at the tail end

  65. of the passage that eleven one to thirteen, when we

  66. lend that Holy Spirit shut, we said, it's a lend enter.

  67. We have to becomeve artful, skillful. The place of teacher

  68. is already taken us. That's why you need to be born.

  69. Once you are born and you have source that God

  70. has for a successful we say to take resident in

  71. our haln loud. You are here, oh man, on every age,

  72. whether you are a child or an old man. You

  73. want to put effectively in your prayer. You must simply

  74. get born again. Since he an't be true, the Holy

  75. Spirit will come. You can't call amen. It is a

  76. seal from when God charges that our profession of faith

  77. and trusting, our repentance is genuine and there's no age

  78. limit when you have to read.

  79. So if you are a child, that they are the

  80. only sense here.

  81. You can't pray. It means that you are living insane.

  82. You have not repented. Amen. You've been coming to church

  83. since you were a baby. Now you shouldn't be getting

  84. proficient in your prayer enterprise.

  85. Say amen. If you are finding challenges, you know you

  86. are engaged.

  87. You are in upper primary. You are in jgs. You

  88. are in eshs. You are having difficulty in praying. It

  89. means that you have not repented. You need to be born.

  90. Again, har luier, so that you will get the seal

  91. of the Holy Spirit.

  92. And then immediately the Holy Spirit comes, something is going

  93. to happen to you, hared Luier.

  94. Amen.

  95. One of these days I'm going to visit your class

  96. and it's going to be random.

  97. You start and pray for us, and.

  98. Then somebody will do the closing and will know if

  99. you're born again or you're not born Harledluwier.

  100. Amen. So we are saying consistency in practice will help you.

  101. And since a.

  102. Child, you've been doing it, and up till now you're

  103. not proficient.

  104. It means that the Bonney gain experience.

  105. That we've been talking about, you have said mine, not me,

  106. hall Louiah, and you are hiding behind Mammy's kate, harly Loujah,

  107. and then coming to church by you you need that

  108. one to Hallelujah Amen. Every age, everyone young, old, Hallelujah. Learned,

  109. no learned, lettered, and none lettered. All of us we

  110. must learn, Haley Lui. And from the Holy Spirit. That

  111. is as a teacher it's no mammy that can teach you.

  112. The Holy Spirit is the one that is giving us hallelujah.

  113. We just help you kick started. But then ultimately it

  114. is the Holy It's going to open your mind, is

  115. going to blow your understand it. And when you come

  116. to the Word of God, you are going to lended.

  117. Throughout the ages, God has appeared to people of all ages.

  118. In the Bible, someone was believed to be a very

  119. young or young boy. And yet so God haleelu a man,

  120. and so all the children here amen.

  121. Amen.

  122. We will have to sign you all on a special

  123. review of the Bonn again, Yes, and the Bonnet Game Pro.

  124. But when we are praying, you are playing. We come

  125. yet to pray, not to play. It's p r A

  126. Y and not p L A Y. Say amen to that.

  127. The other day we were praying and some of them

  128. were going to play, and then I said, look it

  129. is p r a Y. She couldn't help laughing. So

  130. come let's go. Let's go and pray. When we finish

  131. the p R A Y, well, do the p L Hallelujah, Amen.

  132. And then the Holy Spirit is our teacher, Halleluiah, Amen.

  133. And how do we get to learn and be proficient

  134. in the art of praying.

  135. We learn to pray by reading and studying. That we

  136. learn to pray. Another very important true the Holy Spirit

  137. has come.

  138. Now he's going to teach us. He's going to take

  139. us to He's going to tutor us in the Word

  140. of God. So we learn how to pray and to

  141. pray well by learning and studying. The reading and studying

  142. the Word of God. Say Amen, handed luyer, very very important.

  143. And we must be willing and humble enough to go

  144. to school every day. The Holy Spirit automatically and rules

  145. all his children, but we must we should make every

  146. effort and adopt the habit of attending lectures regularly. We

  147. have enrolled Union school. And you don't go to school,

  148. you're don't going to pass.

  149. Amen.

  150. And we are saying that the foundation in the Word

  151. will help show up your prayer life and enterprise. And

  152. so if you don't come to the Word once again,

  153. now I'm assuming that you are born again.

  154. The Holy Spirit has come. But the coming of the

  155. Holy Spirit and.

  156. Look to get us proficient in.

  157. The art and scale of prayer.

  158. We must make it up to show up into every morning,

  159. to show up, should show up in school every night

  160. and na time. That the thing about the Holy Spirit,

  161. when he's teaching you, you don't decide.

  162. He knows when you are free, when you are engrossed.

  163. In something, you will need you to do it because

  164. he knows that things are done in times and season.

  165. So anytime that the Holy Spirit comes, he knows you.

  166. Are free, and he comes with such a food that

  167. you know he's speaking to you. And when he's edging you,

  168. is that can we do some lesson in prayer and

  169. you find out that there's a prayer bubly somebody comes

  170. and then just he's your mind.

  171. Pray for this person. That's the best way he can

  172. teach us how.

  173. To by praying Hallelujah, by praying and allowing him to

  174. coach and to mentors handed Luyer Amen. So whenever the

  175. call for prayer is made, we must respond to him

  176. Hallelujah Amen. And we must be humble enough.

  177. Come to school every day, the school of the Spirit

  178. we are talking about. Perform your assignments.

  179. Join the Rogos rumor broadcast hour, join the radio Ahi,

  180. do prayer, start up the nine hour if you are

  181. connect with it. These are all tools that God has

  182. provided for us, so we can learn the art and

  183. the discipline of prayer and become proficient in italite luier.

  184. So as we perform these assignments one way or the other,

  185. will grow into maturity.

  186. And then when.

  187. You read that stage, you realize that you'll be like

  188. what the Bible. I like what the Bible says. You'll

  189. be having terrible science and won days in answer to

  190. our christ and intercession.

  191. You will be having terrible science and work. I like them.

  192. We're terrible because it would terrify you.

  193. The answers will be coming, and you'll be so concious

  194. of the presence of the police spirit and the unusual

  195. answers to prayer that not even bewor it that you

  196. will just panic and say, what is happening? You just

  197. have to pass through your thoughts. And already God has

  198. done stupendous answers because of your in attending lectures. Whenever

  199. He wakes you up, Whenever you wake up and you

  200. have that nightmare, the next thing you do is to

  201. go on your knees. It's as simple as that. Hallelujah.

  202. There are soft prayers. Let me use the word God

  203. and God. They are soft prayers and hard prayers, Amen,

  204. But one that we pray, and then all you'll get

  205. that that the pard On's God show something to you

  206. in your dream and it will terrify.

  207. You so that you know that the world is not

  208. simply black and white. Haled luier. There are demonic spirits

  209. that will pose our prayers and all that. Halleluier. Amen.

  210. And so yourself going on, we should be prompt and

  211. almost always ready to respond when prayers are called. When

  212. we've come here, you know, and it is prayer time.

  213. Immediately you come to this compound and we are praying.

  214. It is not the time to be loitering around and

  215. going around with all kinds of excuses, and most of all,

  216. it is not the time to be feeding your baby.

  217. Feed your baby in the house. Say amen, we are

  218. bringing all that to our prayer. Hallelujah.

  219. We have come.

  220. We are praying your say I'm going to feed your baby.

  221. Let us feed the prayer and feed you or feed

  222. the baby before you come. Hallelujah Amen. Prayer for the

  223. prayer enterprise. We need all handswer on deck. Say amen.

  224. And when most of all we don't need distractions, hallelujah Amen.

  225. Immediately you come, if.

  226. You know that you want to go to the washing,

  227. and go to the washing manly you come, stay, stay

  228. and pray. Feed your baby in the uber, feed your baby.

  229. In the trot rop. Hallelujah.

  230. And let immediately we get here. It's business to pray.

  231. Hallelujah Amen. So whenever the call of prayer is made,

  232. we should all respond and we should do everything to

  233. get rid of the language of You know because you

  234. see when you are doing it, Because as I said,

  235. it is the practice that is going to make you

  236. much more proficient and confident. So you realize that when when,

  237. when when you are hit hard, whether it is here

  238. or in a way, you know the art and you

  239. know that you have mastered the discipline. You know that

  240. God will hear me, like David will say, when.

  241. That I cry out, I know that my enemies will flee.

  242. Why because God will hear me this. I know God

  243. we hear me.

  244. Whether that confidence comes you garner that confidence as you

  245. keep on practicing on a consistent basis the arts, the

  246. discipline that is needed prayer, hallelu amen.

  247. And let me wake this.

  248. When we must pray, when we are confident on the

  249. spiritual high, like when we are doing I P I P.

  250. And like we are saying now, we are tearing up

  251. the atmosphere. You realize that when we come to when

  252. when we come for the I p I P, we

  253. can't stand here, we can't.

  254. Pray four it's five hours, six hours.

  255. On our knees or on our toes or whatever it

  256. is or posture that we are dubbed, and we can pray.

  257. Hallelujah Amen. And that is good. It makes it easy.

  258. I PIP facilities our prayer and a longevity and our

  259. prayers stamina.

  260. That is good, hallelujish. And so we must pray.

  261. We must also pray and when we are doubtful and

  262. afraid that God will not hear us, because the situation

  263. that confronts seems impossible. That's why he says that prayer

  264. on all occasions, in all circumstances. Pray when you feel

  265. like praying, and and and you are on high, pray

  266. when you feel dumn hearted, pray Amen. When you are doubtful, pray.

  267. There are sometimes that are going to the prayer chamber.

  268. You are going into the prayer chamber and you think

  269. that's what this prayer the baom is God will do hallelujah.

  270. And then there are some other ones.

  271. When you are going, there are dolls on your mind,

  272. clouds will go.

  273. Hear us pray even when you down't pray.

  274. Last time that we read the passage in the Act

  275. chapter twelve, the Bible says that when Harold slaughtered or

  276. killed or executed James, the brother of John, and then

  277. he captured Peter, and then he put him in guilt,

  278. hoping that after they pass over he was going to execute.

  279. And the Bible says, but the church prayed.

  280. Now when he was released and he showed up in

  281. where they were prayed, how many of them? There was

  282. only one person who was praying in confidence and in faith,

  283. and that was the housemaid Ruder. Immediately he shows you God,

  284. God has answer that.

  285. And then she went and they said they were in doubts.

  286. He said no. They went to insist, and they said

  287. it must be his ghosts, Spitter's ghost. It can't be

  288. Peter himself. But then the pounding of Peter and then Loui.

  289. So even in doubts doubts showed up.

  290. And answer prayers, say a bigger he Louyer, Amen. So

  291. we must pray when doubtful enough hallelujah. And when we

  292. think that God will not hear us because of the situation.

  293. Amen.

  294. We must pray even when we think we are disqualified, hardluia.

  295. Amen.

  296. And we're going to read a passage and look at

  297. it when we think that we are disqualified, handelujah.

  298. Amen.

  299. And let's always remember that when it comes to God

  300. is a specialist in impossibility. Say amen, halleluia. Now let's

  301. look at the passaging. Let's look at Matthew and we

  302. are just going to look at it and connection developing

  303. faith because faith is a very very important thing that

  304. we need, hardelu if we're going to also be able

  305. to have our breakthrough her Man. Last Sunday, we also

  306. read through and a situation hallelujah. We also learned a

  307. Bahannah and one man. We see God showing up in

  308. corporate prayer. We also read Bahannah showing or getting her

  309. prayers and say when she stood in for herself, hallelu

  310. So we are looking at love stories that helps us

  311. understand that corporate prayer, there's a God will coming, there's

  312. a place for one man, and what we are going

  313. in accessory for our loved ones. Say amen to that.

  314. Hallelu Amen. But particularly now that our children, our children

  315. behooves us to take intaccessory.

  316. Roles on their behalf.

  317. They are yet not born again, or they can't pray,

  318. it is our duty as parents to stand in hallelu

  319. and be able to bring them out from whatever situation

  320. that they find ourselves. So so you learn that it's

  321. a win win that let's pray. We must handle ourselves

  322. like this. Disciples teach us how to pray every morning

  323. when we go on her knees. God, I am coming

  324. to you, but I don't know the ad, but you

  325. teach me how to pray. Prayer is tough and very perplexing,

  326. and no doubt, a lot of people shy away from pray.

  327. They just as you know, God will do what he

  328. will do. No God, why Ye're not doing that? So

  329. I pray, Haly, you know we are going to learn it,

  330. hallly loud. We know about the situation. When as we said,

  331. and Mama Hannah, you think that your prayers have been delayed,

  332. it's not coming. You must be able at the right

  333. time to descend the moment that God is going to visit,

  334. and then you would just grab the situation and then

  335. God is going to come through.

  336. Hallelu amen. Very very important.

  337. Let's read the passage, Siroh finish man, Let's look at it.

  338. The Bible says that then Jesus went out from there

  339. and departed of thie and side on. Hallelu So what

  340. is VERSI is trying to tell us that was visiting

  341. reading hallelu amen. Jesus was visiting tie inside. It wasn't

  342. the usual area we know Judea, dally Lee jer Rusalem.

  343. I think that was what'smen, But I think that what

  344. I like a particular passage and this point God is everywhere.

  345. Thenk to someone say God is everywhere, halleluiah.

  346. Amen.

  347. So your prayer life must not be limited to when

  348. we are coming to your men, we are coming to church.

  349. Say amen.

  350. Wherever you are, whether alone or whether in the church community.

  351. God will hear you, hallelujah.

  352. Whether you are praying for yourself or you are interceding

  353. for a friend and love one, God will hear you.

  354. Amen.

  355. So that we can rise up as we are saying,

  356. need more prayer, more prayer discourses with God. It will

  357. be healthul and it's good for us soul. There's a

  358. way that after you have prayed, even if you have

  359. not seen you know, spontaneous answers. There's a way when

  360. when you find out that the bedding is lifted, something

  361. that was weighing you down, something that was causing size

  362. and grownings and pain and whatever, it is disarmed in

  363. the place of prayer.

  364. So be what it may. We must pray. Well. God

  365. only answer prayers when we come to church, no everywhere, hallelujah.

  366. Amen, every time here, even when you rise up and

  367. you know your prayer like you are the whole twenty

  368. four hours. As you are going wherever you are going, pray.

  369. You're in the office, you need to go to the

  370. war room.

  371. Pray. It will be three minutes.

  372. Pray Amen, and catch up, and maybe.

  373. We should call it catch up prayers. Halle Halleluiah. Amen.

  374. Before you realize you have redeemed the time, pray anyway.

  375. Pray God will hear you wherever you are, Pray you

  376. are going to cry, you sit in the bus, pray

  377. catch up, hallelujah. When you do that, you realize that

  378. there is no excuse not there's no excuse not to

  379. do your quiet because you redeem the time.

  380. Hallelujas.

  381. So Jesus was in his region, And I'm saying that

  382. God is everywhere, so we can be interceding from everywhere

  383. for the people that we care about and may not

  384. sometimes know that we are praying and interceding for them.

  385. When as we read through the story you pick it up.

  386. Sometimes our children they don't even know doing their children?

  387. Do they know we are praying for them? Hallelujah? And

  388. I read about the story of a man of but

  389. I think I think we were watching on she and

  390. her husband. They are pastors. He says, they pray loud

  391. prayers for their children so that they will hear them

  392. praying for them. Halenelujiah. When they are going away, well,

  393. pray allouds so that they will know that you are

  394. reporting them to God, and that uk one day they

  395. will remember, my mama.

  396. Used to pray for me, Hallel louis amen. So that

  397. was it. So that's twenty one. Now let's look at

  398. twenty two.

  399. So they went and said, and behold, a woman of

  400. Canaan came from that region and cried out to him,

  401. have mercy on me, Oh Lord, son of David. My

  402. daughter is severely demon processed. This is sad halleluis. Amen,

  403. if you read, let's look at Mac's account. Just for

  404. me to make a point. In Max's account is in

  405. Max seven. We are looking at this some of the

  406. attitudes that we must employ, not the syoh Phoenician woman employed,

  407. so we can learn and pick.

  408. Look at that verse twenty four.

  409. From there he arose and went to the region of

  410. tie and side on, and he entered a house and

  411. wanted no one to know it, but he could not

  412. be hidden, harled Louis.

  413. Verse twenty five. Let's move on.

  414. For a woman whose young daughter had an unclean spirit

  415. had about him, and she came and fell at his feet.

  416. The woman was a Greek, a syuh Phoene it by Beth,

  417. and she kept asking him to cast it out, harled.

  418. Luke a man. So, yes, we are talking about order

  419. in prayer. Sometime we really we say five piece.

  420. Look in your desperate moment, forget about five PM prayer.

  421. And so they say, when we.

  422. Are prays, you know protocol five piece, and then that

  423. the first people will vanish.

  424. Hallelujah.

  425. And it's really and God says that you say, yes,

  426. it's a God of protocol hallelujah, and said, oh, immortal

  427. God and invisible God. Oh, and then that's when you

  428. are going to pull Hebrew west. And then Jehovah mecadshki,

  429. you have time for that.

  430. Jesus turn to somebody and say pray.

  431. Oh jeez, So she was praying, not that without This

  432. woman shows us that sometimes it's not that she didn't

  433. she doesn't respect God. You see it as we read it.

  434. We go to hallelujah, but kick start think pray. And

  435. that's why sometimes we think that I have to be

  436. in church and then I have to be in a

  437. certain mood of prayer prayer.

  438. No, no, no, hallelujah amen. Yes, God is a god

  439. he wants.

  440. It's a god of protocols and and with this is

  441. amount of ordering prayer. So no, that's not what we

  442. are teaching or trying to see in that spirate move.

  443. Just jump in and go and like they will say,

  444. just tell God exactly what you want to be done,

  445. and God.

  446. Is going to come through for you. Hallelu amen.

  447. So there's a woman who didn't have much respect for

  448. protocols and do all that. More or less, what this

  449. is trying to tell us that she gets crashed the

  450. Bible says that Jesus wanted to go and rest, and

  451. she didn't want He didn't want anybody to even know

  452. that he was there. I'm sure to have left the

  453. Galilean place and then Jerusalem. You there and come to

  454. tie and side on was the crowd. They knew him,

  455. and so he wanted it. So he went to the place.

  456. He didn't want anybody to know. I'm sure he was

  457. tased and then lo and behold, yeah, aggressive who doesn't

  458. have respect for problem? Because I'm sure if she had

  459. gone there and said that, they would have sacked here.

  460. Hallelu amen. When you come here, it's not the time

  461. for us.

  462. You come in.

  463. We are going to start the prayer at six eighties

  464. five something, pray say we are waiting for Pastor Jeff

  465. to confess before we'll pray non before he will come

  466. and start the prayer at me because you have come,

  467. you know this.

  468. Fifteen minutes. I can catch up on my money in prayers.

  469. I can catch up on my intercession for my prayer.

  470. My parents may know that the church holds a special

  471. place that is.

  472. Dear to God's hurt. How they lou He says that

  473. he puts his name here Amen. And we always say

  474. it's a fear for encounters, supernatural encounters for God.

  475. Halleluiah. Amen.

  476. This is a sacred place, So immediately you come in here,

  477. something is going to be staying in your heart and

  478. in your spirit before the prayer time and well officialists

  479. that I have some five minutes my row second enemy.

  480. Even before they start, you are in the mood for

  481. prayer and you are praying halleluiah instead of what's happening

  482. and going on social media.

  483. Catch up with God.

  484. Yes, God, that's what I was saying in the morning.

  485. I forgot to add. And then you bring your list

  486. out and start telling you the things that the peddings

  487. on your heart like Anna, begin to pour out your

  488. heart for pull out your soul hallelu amen. So, although

  489. we are talking about all that in prayer, prayer and

  490. the protocols can be set aside for you because God.

  491. Cares for you.

  492. Turn to someone and say God cares for you, hallelujah.

  493. And remember Jesus said in similar language, you said that

  494. the Sabbath was made for man and not man for

  495. the Sabbath.

  496. So the point is that God will.

  497. Receive and hear you if you push protocols aside and

  498. Badge invited. The Bible says that he doesn't sleep nor

  499. slamber halleluis amen.

  500. And when he came in, he didn't.

  501. He didn't say our father, who are in heaven, hallowed

  502. be thy name, or listen to her Halleluis amen.
