The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working]”
James 5:16b AMP
Stop seeing prayer as something you do to fulfil all righteousness.
Learn to expect results when you pray.
As the Lord Jesus prayed at Gethsemane, he took breaks but he continued praying on the same subject thrice.
Learn to give matters continued attention in prayer.
If you had only thirty minutes to pray in the morning, you can adjourn and continue during your break time at work.
If that still wasn’t enough, you adjourn again to continue when you get home.
When do you stop?
When you win! Continued prayer prevails.

Acts 17:24 – 25 , 27 KJV
[24] God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;
[25] Neither is worshipped with men’s hands, as though he needed any thing, SEEING HE GIVETH TO ALL LIFE, AND BREATH, AND ALL THINGS;
GOD does not demand before He gives.
He gives to ALL !
He gives FREELY !
‘He delivered us from so deadly a peril, and he will deliver us, on him we have set our hope that he will deliver us again” (2Corinthians 1:10 RSV)
There is nothing uncertain or coincidental about God’s help in times of trouble
It is deliberate, thorough and complete
Christ is the guarantee the help will always be available when needed
Don’t falter in your conviction and confession
That which you have believed is more sure
He has helped before and will help again
Enjoy much assistance this week

1 Thessalonians 5: 17.Pray without ceasing.
Paul teaches “Pray without ceasing”.
That is:
Pray before “something” happens
Pray while “something” is happening
Pray after “something” has happened
When we continue in prayer, we prevail. Praise God!

1 Peter 3:12 NKJV
For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their prayers.
Prayer is to be exciting – not drudgery. It takes someone to pray because God moves as we pray in faith – believing.
God is always ready to answer our prayers but Prayer that brings results must be based on God’s Word.
Jeremiah 1:12 NKJV
Then the Lord said to me, “You have seen well, for I am ready to perform my Word.”
God watches over His Word to perform it. God’s Word is our contact with Him.
Hebrews 4:12 Amp
For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power – making it active, operative, energizing and effective; it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [that is, of the deepest parts of our nature] exposing and sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart.
Prayer is this “Living” Word in our mouths. Our mouths must speak forth faith, for faith pleases God (Heb 11:6).
We hold His Word up to Him in prayer, and our Father sees Himself in His Word.
We put Him in remembrance of His Word, asking Him for what we need in the name of the Lord Jesus.
We eternally blessed of God !
