If you believe that you already have a breakthrough and victory in prayer, then start praying for your brothers and sisters!

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes

Greetings to you, dear readers of “Daily Word for Spiritual Edification”! God is faithful to His Word. God is faithful to us because of His boundless love. God desires to see His children being satisfied and fruitful in the things they do. For it to happen He has provided us with an opportunity to communicate with Him in prayer, to draw from His wisdom and power. For some time we have been talking about the fact that the will of God is for men to always pray and not lose heart!

What are we going to do with the truth we have heard – the truth about importance and crucial nature of prayer? We must change! First, we need to ask God to help us to pray constantly. Second, we may ask other people you consider being strong in prayer to pray for you and help you put your prayer life in order. There is no shame in asking someone to pray for you.

I remember a period in my life when I had lost a desire to pray; it seemed boring and my prayer seemed lifeless. And for some reason I wasn’t able to change it. I realized that I was experiencing crisis in my prayer life. I called my oldest brother and told him about my failures in this area; I was reading the Bible, but to no effect; I was praying, but with no results so I was losing the desire altogether. After hearing me out, my brother told me to continue to pray and read the Word anyway and promised to pray for me so that my prayer life would regain life and that I would regain the desire to pray and read the Word. And it worked. One week later everything changed; my hunger and love towards God and prayer returned to me and I once again enjoyed the time I spend with God.

So, be honest in this area. If you have problems with prayer, ask some strong believers to pray for you. You will see the situation changed. If someone has ever asked you to pray for him and you have told others about it, judging him for his weakness and spreading rumours about him throughout the church, do not do that again! God hates things like that. It is shameful to spread rumours about others, judge them for things they have entrusted us; things like that bring division among believers. In Proverbs we can find a list of things that are an abomination to the Lord:

«These six things the LORD hates, yes, seven are an abomination to Him: a proud look, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that are swift in running to evil, a false witness who speaks lies, and one who sows discord among brethren» (Proverbs, 6:16-19).

If you believe that you already have a breakthrough and victory in prayer, then start praying for your brothers and sisters and helping them. Join them in prayer, pray with them so that powerful prayer would become a norm in the Body of Christ.

I wish abundant God’s blessings!

Till tomorrow!

It all starts when a person does what he can do and does it with all his might as unto the Lord with faith and consistency. When one has such attitude towards life he will have his or her reward from the Lord. Such a person will be blessed and exalted by God. His or her gift will make room for him or her in God’s overall picture and the Body of Christ.Person’s gift will make room for him and will bring him before great men, – this is on of the Bible principles; the Bible teaches about it and also it can be seen in the lives of the people in the Bible.

  • God changing us through discipline

    I believe that discipline is one of God’s tools that help us to change and achieve effectiveness in our personal lives and ministry. Every one of us has a dream or a goal for our lives. But however good or grand these plans or desires are, discipline is a necessary prerequisite for these things to come to pass. Many ideas and desires never come true because people lack discipline.

We can experience God’s presence through fervent praying, through cleansing and purifying of our hearts, though brokenness and humility before God, and through holy and godly living.Moses made prayer a priority in order to secure God’s presence in his life and ministry; for this reason he set up a special tent where all the seekers of God were invited to come.

  • Analyze your work and your days!

    If we don’t learn to stop like God did to analyze what we are doing and where we are going, then we might end up in a totally different place, not at the intended destination, and we might get something we did not plan to get. It is so easy to get distracted, to get involved into all kinds of entertainment and futile things; that is why we need to stop once in a while to check and analyze what is happening in our lives, whether it is good or bad, should it be changed or not, is the direction of our lives right and good.
