Prayer Summary for Thursday, July 20, 2017

Mary led group in worship…

♪ Lord, we magnify You… ♪

Pastor Ray shared…

I keep hearing this in my spirit while we were worshiping. The Lord is calling us from what we think in our thoughts and the plans we’ve made and calling us over more into the Spirit way. More over into the realm of the spirit, each and every day. That we might lift and declare, do what He’d have us to do, that our prayers would be more tuned into Him and what He’d have us to pray. Not just what we think we should pray, but what He’s asking us to say and asking us to pray, tuning into the realm of the Holy Spirit, over and over and over again. Maybe it would just be a sound that no one else can understand but He can. Maybe it would be just bowing down before Him and humbling ourselves. Remember how it says that is 2nd Chron. 7:14, “If my people which are called by my name shall humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”

Abraham humbled himself before the Lord. He recognized without Him, he’s just dust. Brother Hagin said a lot of times people will pray, “Lord, make us humble.” That prayer will never be answered. We, just like Abraham, must humble ourselves. Seek His face. I love it when we lift Him up in worship. While we do it, we are changed. We recognize that without Him, we are just dust. As we lift Him up, we are changed from one degree of glory to the next.

Abraham pleaded his case before the Lord for Sodom and Gomorra, asking the Lord not to destroy it for the righteous people within it and he went from 50 to 10 people. These were nasty places. The Lord He would spare the cities if there were 10 righteous people. Put that in today’s context. Most of our cities are so worldly. We believe for change in our cities. We know through prayer, our cities can change. We can stand in the gap and intercede for the cities, lifting up the authorities in the cities.

Prayed…

We lift up our cities… Minneapolis and St. Paul… we plead the blood over our cities… we call for change in the Church… our families… our cities and states and the nation…

Pastor Ray interjected…

If you get out of your thoughts and into the Spirit, there is no shortage of prayer. “For I have given you a language to pray through and an unction to pray in other tongues things you don’t even have a clue about. I need these things to be prayed through.”

Prayer continued…

Some things have to be finished and shut down… some doors have to be closed up forever… in Jesus’ name, we take the blood and close some things and shut them down… we’re not limited by what we know or heard in the natural… there are no limitations in the spirit… we speak to things that have not yet changed and say, “Change now!”… that’s a wide door of utterance… we will not be contained or shut down… we are rising up and coming through… a sudden turn, change… it was not working but suddenly it changes… complete turnaround… some things turned upside down… line upon line… it’ll be okay cuz it’ll turn around… those are keys, opportunities… by faith we turn them… we take our place in the race… there are no boundaries… moving into new days… taking our place in new positions of grace in the Holy Ghost…

Pastor Paul shared…

In Zechariah, the Lord speaking to Zerubbabel said to speak to the mountain. They spoke to the mountain and they called it a plain. That mountain served as the impediment, as the impasse that kept the Israelites from the will and promise of God. When the Lord came, He came speaking grace to the mountain, to bring us near to Him. So whatever it is that has been in place for so long and has stood against the God’s purpose in this land, we have been given the mandate of heaven to speak grace to those mountains. Father, we speak grace to the media, grace to that mountain that stands against the will of God. We speak grace to the authorities of Minneapolis. Grace and peace is multiplied to the body of Christ.

Group continued to worship…
