I was praying on the morning of the 11th March 2012 when the Lord spoke to me clearly and said, “Whenever you pray in Jesus name, whatever you ask or say becomes My words and so it must come to pass.” The Lord then reminded me about the power of his voice in the book of psalms.
Psalms 29: 3-9: “The voice of the Lord is over the waters; The God of glory thunders; The Lord is over many waters. The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty. The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars, yes; the Lord splinters the cedars of Lebanon. He makes them also skip like a calf, Lebanon and Sirion like a young wild ox. The voice of the Lord divides the flames of fire. The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness; The Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.The voice of the Lord makes the deer give birth, and strips the forests bare; and in His temple everyone says, “Glory!”
The above verses give me the confidence to pray more often in the name of Jesus. This is because I am more aware that the words coming out of my mouth are powerful. The word of God comes out like thunder destroying every obstacle in its way. Anything preventing the glory of God from manifesting in my life must bow and crumble in the name of Jesus. The word of God in my mouth carries his authority. He speaks through me because he dwells in me and I am his temple.
Corinthians 6:19: “Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?”
We therefore need to be full of gratitude and thanksgiving to God. After we have made our request known through prayers to him, we need to honour him and magnify his holy name.
Psalms 29:1-22: Give unto the Lord, O you mighty ones, Give unto the Lord glory and strength. Give unto the Lord the glory due to His name; Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.
The above psalm describes us as mighty ones. Other versions say we are heavenly beings or the sons of God. The word of God also says we are gods. When you pray, those words are coming out of a mighty one, a heavenly being who is in Christ Jesus sited at the right hand of God. Remember that you are a new creation in Christ Jesus. You belong to the Kingdom of God and this kingdom cannot be limited by natural laws.
Psalm 82:6: “I said, “You are gods, and all of you are children of the Most High.”
Considering all these things, all your anxiety must cease. Pray about all your needs and give glory to God. This is because your prayer requests are already stamped as okay in heaven. When heaven says okay, the earth has no choice but to agree. Understanding this truth fills your heart with the peace of God. This makes it easy for you to wait patiently for your delivery to come in. You will have an “express delivery” if you maintain a positive confession.
Philippians 4:6-7: “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
Learn to speak to bad situations and command them to change in the name of Jesus. Stop complaining to God about them because God is waiting for you to use the authority that he has given you.
Matthew 8:23-27: “Now when He got into a boat, His disciples followed Him. And suddenly a great tempest arose on the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves. But He was asleep. Then His disciples came to Him and awoke Him, saying, “Lord, save us! We are perishing!” But He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. So the men marvelled, saying, “Who this can be, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”
Jesus spoke to situations; so we his children must do likewise. As a new creation, your spirit man is just like Jesus.
1 John 4:17: “Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world.”
We must be bold and strong. We must open our mouth with confidence and the Lord will fill us with his word.
Psalm 81:10: “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt; open your mouth wide and I will fill it.
Prayer points.
1. Lord help me to see and understand who I am in Christ Jesus.
2. Lord help me to know that your words in my mouth are powerful to make your kingdom manifest in my life.
3. Every negative word that I might have uttered be renounced in Jesus name.
Enjoy the blessings of God
