The Supernaturals 20


Hello everyone, we are still on this series and we are still looking at how to flow in the supernaturals. I have talked about HUNGER, FAITH AND BEING LED BY THE SPIRIT. Today, I want to talk about
PRAYER
I heard that one of the funny Grace Preachers said 'JESUS HAS PRAYED  AND HE IS STILL PRAYING FOR US. SO, WE DON'T NEED TO PRAY AGAIN'.
When I hear things like this, I marvel at the extent that darkness has covered such folks. Jesus is the embodiment of Grace and Truth. John 1:16. You can't have Grace or be more 'worded' than Jesus. The embodiment of Grace says
Luke  18:1 And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint.
Sardonic to say, some people have categorized the teachings of Jesus has belonging to the spiritually dead people. A day will come that I will deal with this.
Prayer is a necessity in this day. If you are going to survive as a believer and if you are going to live a triumphant life and walk in the supernaturals, YOU MUST PRAY OFTEN. One of the secret of Jesus' success in His Earthly Ministry was His Prayer Life. He rose up early to  pray. Mk. 1:35 Some have estimated that Jesus had prayed for about 8hours stretch before walking on the Sea.
Prayer helps to align and bring your will in subjection to God's will.Mt. 26:39. I'm yet to see one person that move frequently in the Supernaturals that take prayer with a levity hand. Even though, the apostles had been endowed with Power and Authority yet, they met a demon they couldn't cast out and Jesus says, THIS KIND GOETH NOT OUT BUT BY PRAYER AND FASTING.Mt. 17:21 The kind of prayer that I am talking about here is not 'those complain Sessions that many call prayer'. Prayer is not just meant for complaining or asking for your personal needs to be met. There are times the burdens of the Lord are rolled on you in prayer. Seriously emphasis must be laid on PRAYING IN THE HOLY GHOST. Why?
Jesus says in Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
 But, on the Day of Pentecost, we didn't see POWER IN MANIFESTATION BUT, TONGUES.
It means there is a connection between PRAYING IN TONGUES AND MANIFESTING POWER.
If you don't know, know this now. PRAYING IN TONGUES IS THE MECHANISM THAT GOD HAS PUT IN PLACE FOR POWER GENERATION IN A BELIEVER.
The more you exercise this ability the more power becomes available to you. There are many powerless believers yet, they can talk in tongues. I am not praying in tongues when you come to Church, I'm talking about your personal prayer time. It has been repeatedly said that an average Christian should pray in tongues for ONE HOUR drawing from Jesus' statement to His sleeping Disciples at Gethsemane.
 You can  spend hours on Social Media without feeling it yet, ONE HOUR PRAYER is difficult. If you don't know, your enemies have gotten your password. (Laugh). Prayer is not about a feeling or mood, IT IS A DELIBERATE ACTION. I know there are times you feel like praying but Paul says to us 'I WILL PRAY WITH THE SPIRIT...'1 Cor. 14:15. This connotes a deliberate thing. The more you pray, the more power comes. Lack of prayer accounts for powerlessness in the Body of Christ. There is no fire upon many altars. No wonder demons perch and operate unhindered in many lives. Listen, a believer can come under perpetual demonic oppression. A demonic agent can sit over a Tongue Talking Church because the Church is powerless and 'authorityless'. Don't quote Bible for me. I know where you want to quote. It is you that needs to pay attention. A Yoruba adage says 'a hen will only perch on a local cooking place that is cold'. I can't imagine a witch and a believer in the same house and the witch is dwelling comfortably there. When there is power in your life, sickness can no longer dwell in your body. What is the essence of the Eternal Life present in your spirit with no relevance in your body?
When there is power on your life, anything you touch become a means of dispensing the power of God. If you touch hold an handkerchief, power will flow. If you pray on water, the same result. The reason the helm of garment of Jesus could dispense enough power to heal that woman  was because He is loaded with power. Mk. 5:25-34. The Bible says in Luke  6:19   And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and healed them all.
Listen, you can lay hands and even lay your head and nothing may happen. It is not the hands that brings power, it is the power on your life that flow through your hands. If there is power on your life, your suit will  be a conduit of power. If there is power on your life and you remove your shoe, any Usher/Protocol officer that goes there is in trouble. Aprons and Handkerchief taking from Paul contained the same anointing Paul was anointed with. Peter's shadow contains the same power he was anointed with.
Many years ago around the 90s, a woman was invited to minister in a Church Convention that I attended. As she was preaching, her local head gear was removing and it was disturbing her flow. She just went towards the Choir and remove the beret on a lady there and just threw her head gear to her and went away. No be small thing o, about half of the Mass Choir went under the power as the head gear hit the owner of the beret. Back then in Secondary School, I heard the Testimony of what happened in a school. A JSS student wore a Sweater to school during the Rainy Season. He removed his sweater during the Break Time and went to the Football Field. The Break Time was shortened that day by the Drama that happened in the Class. A demon possessed girl carelessly touch his Sweater and that was the beginning of Confession Time. The entire school gathered as she began to unveil her escapade in dark world. Listen, this didn't happen during a Deliverance Session. If you have power, even the food you eat can convey power.
 Spend time more praying in tongues. There will be distinct evidence in days not long from now. There are many of this pastors that move seriously in the Supernatural that would have locked themselves up for days praying in Tongues. Some would have done 72Hours in Tongues. Listen, there are some REVELATIONS THAT WON'T COME TO YOU UNTIL YOU ENGAGE IN LONG PRAYERS. These days of Jehovah Sharp sharp. All these Seekers Friendly Church Approach are detrimental to what we are sharing here. Do you know the time that Elijah had invested in Prayer before the EXOUSIA to lock the Heavens was given? Many thought it was a pure Faith Declaration. You must be joking. There are times you have to tarry in prayer before the hold of darkness is broken over a life or territory. If you belong to the Say It and Get It Camp, I am sure by now, you should have discovered many defects in that Theology. That you are a Faith Person doesn't mean you shouldn't be a Prayer Person. There is no Short Cut. The Old Testament Folks prayed, Jesus Prayed, Paul and the other apostles prayed, those that are getting results in these times are praying. Tell me how will you avoid it? If you don't want the witch in your village to use your matter to increase in rank, you better   learn to pray. (Laugh).
 James 5:17(Amp) says the earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].
Praying in tongues is our God given way to precipitate Power. The gifts and anointings of God are stirred up by PRAYING IN TONGUES. 1Tim. 4:14, 2Tim. 1:6.
Spiritual senses are activated by prayers. Anyone that calls himself/herself a prophet and doesn't pray yet, he/she sees MUST BE OPERATING BY FAMILIAR SPIRIT. It seems the Prophetic Ministry requires prayer more than other Ministry Gifts. If you want to see tangible power manifestation in your life and ministry, you have to do some glossolalia on a daily basis. But, I'm busy, my work doesn't give me time. Pray on the Street, pray in the Bus, pray as you are doing house  chores. Paul says to pray everywhere.1 Tim. 2:8. You  can pray everywhere. Instead for you to allow your mind to be wandering, use that time to pray in tongues. You can pray under your breath. You don't have to shout and disturb everyone. If you haven't been baptized in the Holy Ghost with the evidence if speaking in tongues, you are missing seriously. Desire it. More so, you can  contact me and we will see to that. Pentecostalism in Nigeria started on the wings of prayer. There are spiritual stunts that Prayer people like Apostle Ayo Babalola did that we can only dream of now. Many years after that they have left the scene, we are yet to come close to their records let alone break it. There are some gullible people that shout that they are better than Elijah. I can  only laugh and marvel at their depths and heights of ignorance. I cant find in the Bible. It is pure Motivational talk. Let me stop here today. Read up on PRAYER in the Spiritual Weapons of Warfare series. I dealt extensively with prayers there.
 Tomorrow is another day.

Prayer of Enquiry

PRAYER OF ENQUIRY Prayer is a well established and accepted doctrine in all denominations of the body of Christ. Although, there are differences in our modes of prayer, we all believe in the efficacy of lifting up our voice to God to hear our requests and answer them. As much as we do a lot of this, we don't take the full advantage of it as children of God. We would rather worry and think things through rather than calling on God for help. This can be due to lack of faith in the power of God or being slothful in prayers. Apart from the aforementioned factors that prevent us from enjoying the efficacy of prayers, one key factor that prayer hinges on is praying correctly. To pray correctly simply means to pray according to the will of God. It is easy to know the will of God about sickness and poverty because they are expressly written in bible, but even at this, we still do not get answers when we pray. What you might be missing out may be a simple enquiry. The prayer ...

Holy Spirit 15- The Seven Spirits of God- Part 2

We have established yesterday that the 7 Spirits of God describe the 7 fold distinct manifestation of the Holy Spirit and it also describes the perfection of the Spirit of God. The answer to yesterday's quiz is: when God stepped into the matter in Eden, the 7 persons brought by the number 7 are: Adam, Eve, Physical Serpent, spiritual Serpent (the Devil), the Seed of the Woman (Jesus the Christ), the seed of the spiritual serpent (Antichrist) and God Himself . Re- read Day 14 to know how this fit in. Today's Broadcast 2. THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM Is. 11:2, Eph. 1:17 This is the Spirit that reveals to you the PLANS AND PURPOSES OF GOD CONCERNING YOUR LIFE, A MATTER, PLACE, etc. If you will ever know why you are on earth, you need the operation of the Spirit of Wisdom. He reveals EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING about the future. There are 3 prominent Greek words used for Wisdom relevant to our subject; SOPHIA, SUNESIS and PHRONESIS. A. SOPHIA describes the entire wisdom of God. T...

Holy Spirit 4- The Symbol of Dove

Mt. 3:16, Mk. 1:10. This typifies the harmless and gentle nature of God the Holy Spirit. He neither FORCE NOR FUSS ANYONE. It is only the Devil that force people and even afflict them without their consent. The Holy Spirit IS NOT a dove; He created the dove. Luke 3:22 says 'the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily form like a dove upon Him'. Many have wrongly interpreted this verse and that's why many church logos have the dove as an integral part of it. You need to know that the church can NEVER COME INTO HER FULL POTENTIAL AND RELEVANCE ON THE EARTH UNTIL SHE KNOWS (knowledge with participation-Greek EPIGNOSIS) the Holy Spirit. The person that designed the handbill for EPIGNOSIS Nite had already put a Dove there to represent 'the Holy Spirit'. I told him to remove it. The symbols in most cases are already becoming an idol in many people's hearts and rather than for many to think of the Holy Spirit as a person, they think of Him as a dove/fire/wind,etc. T...
