Prayer Summary for Tuesday, October 25, 2016

Pastor Ray shared…

I want to read something from a book by Vicki Jamison-Peterson entitled, More Than Enough: El Shaddai.

[begin quote]
Through the limitless power of El Shaddai—the God of more than enough—you can be a tireless dynamo in God. When you tap into the power source of the universe, you receive the energeia of God. He becomes your “energizer” for life.

First, He gives you exousia, or divine authority. That’s yours the moment you accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour. He gives every child of God the “power of attorney” to conduct the Father’s business.

That authority—when used with knowledge—renders Satan powerless. It’s the “clout” that Jesus gave His disciples (that’s you and me) in Luke 10:19: “Behold I give you the authority over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall be any means hurt you.”

That is the same authority He gave the 12 disciples in Luke 9:1: “Then He called His twelve disciples together and gave them power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases.

Second, when you step out to minister in the power of the Holy Spirit, He gives you dunamis or miracle-working power. That’s what Jesus promised in Acts 1:8: “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you.”

And it’s the same power Jesus used in His ministry on earth: “God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him” (Acts 10:38).

God was with Him… and He is with you. Any time Satan challenges your authority—and he will—you can back it up with supernatural power. Holy Spirit-filled believers carry a big stick!

And third, as you grow in faith you develop kratos—the kind of strength described in Ephesians 6:10: “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.”

You walk with quiet exousia, or authority, with instant access to the adrenalin of dunamis power, shielded and protected by the kratos of God’s might.

You’re no longer just a reservoir of God’s goodness. You are a conduit of His power. The immeasurable force of El Shaddai flows from your being.

You can move mountains. You can speak healing and deliverance to those you meet. You can lead men and women out of the darkness and into the light.

I challenge you to put El Shaddai to the test. Look your toughest problem right in the face, and then—with nothing wavering—say, “With God’s help, I will defeat you. You cannot stand in the presence of almighty God.”

When you speak the Word of God—with no doubt or unbelief—miracles happen. You are going to discover a greater strength than you’ve ever known before. You’ll never again be defeated. Even when the battle seems to be going to the enemy, you’ll have the assurance that ultimate victory is yours.

There’s no question about it. The Bible says, “Thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph (2 Cor. 2:14). Unlimited power flows through you as a believer. But you have to turn on the switch. You have to be an open channel.

May the strength of El Shaddai gush forth from you today!

Annie shared…

When you were reading from Vicki’s book about how we carry a big stick. It came up in my heart—the cross is a big stick! Jesus used that big stick and He defeated the Devil.

Margie shared…

This is something God’s been talking to me about lately. Everything has to do with our eyes, our spiritual eyes. He’s had me praying for other people and me to have the eyes of an eagle, to be able to see through things, to be able to rise above things. And one of the ways we do that is praying in the Holy Spirit. The more you pray in the Spirit and the more you step over into that place, the easier it is to access it. And that’s really what it’s all about, being able to access that place where we can hear Him. Because otherwise we’re trapped in the soulish realm, the clamorings and the chaos and confusion. And as you know, there is so much in the world now. There is so much clamoring and we can get pulled down with that. Or we can rise up even more and more because that’s what we’ve been called to do.

He wants to use each one of us. And when you come to prayer, He’s using you. He’s using me. He’s using Pastor Ray and Annie. He’s using us as instruments. But we got to access that place. That’s what this prayer time is about. But to take it in our personal lives and as the days grow darker, our light will grow more and more and more. He wants to use us very powerfully. But it’s all about that place and it’s so easy to get away from it and from spiritual things and to handle spiritual things in a familiar way where they don’t even seem supernatural anymore. But yet they’re supernatural in their origin.

Pastor Ray shared…

That reminds me this word from brother Hagin. He said it will be one day that the supernatural will become natural to us. It’ll be like breathing. We have two Wednesday prayer sessions left before the election. I was talking to Pastor Lynne and she said some things that she became aware of when she was in the prayer conference in Branson last week. One thing was about praying in the Holy Ghost, that when we’re praying in other tongues, He’ll show us things that we never even dreamed of. It’ll all of a sudden, an idea will pop up in our spirits or a saying or a direction or a door that we never knew about. We wouldn’t know about it in the natural. She said she’s more and more expectant that every time she begins to pray in other tongues that will happen. I agree with that. We could take this hour we spend every morning here, to pray out His will if we’ll just yield more to Him and get out of our brains.

Man’s opinion doesn’t count. The word counts and God has made us to be overcomers in every area if we’ll just stand on His Word. But He’s given us a way to get out in the spirit and to hear things so clearly and not just in our natural ears but in our hearts in the internal ear, we can hear things and then speak them out. If we’ll speak them out, they will come to pass. Otherwise, what are we doing?

Group worships…

Pastor Ray shared…

While you were playing, the Holy Spirit showed me something about our city, Minneapolis. There are all kinds of construction happening almost wherever you go. While you were playing, I went there by the spirit and I wanted to declare this: “New Holy Ghost construction is taking place in the center of the city of Minneapolis.” Get it? Churches that have been dormant for years are about to wake up and their bells will begin to ring once again. When I say that I mean the sound that will come out of them and thru their pastors, those in positions of leadership, they’ll be heaven-sent words. So in the center of Minneapolis, the picture right now in the natural is construction or new things… new buildings, new streets, new avenues, new condos… And God has said He will and is doing a new thing! Have you not seen? Have you not heard? I’m doing a new thing! So in the realm of the Spirit, He is doing a new thing in Minneapolis.

Prayed…

We lift that up… the borders of Minneapolis
We plead the blood of Jesus over the borders of the city
We declare it will be what God has preplanned for the city to be
In the natural, there’s things being made new but in the spirit, new days of great outpourings of the Holy Ghost
Just the way it’s been prophesied in years past
Words spoken 25, 30, 40 years ago shall come to pass
They were spoken by the Spirit and we see it with our faith today

Word… And it’s not up just to Living Word Christian center to send laborers to the city; it’s up to every ministry in the city to come together in a position of unity and watch the lost come to God. It is a supernatural blending together like never before.

Continued praying…

Supernatural developments
Different churches and ministries that occupy land in the middle of the city—rise up the way God planned them to be
They will begin to rise and their voices will be heard
It will be a Holy Ghost plan
Voices speaking louder than ever before
We declare today, they are going to the king of kings and lord of lords
Changes will take place
Lives will be changed
There’s a greater that new hotels are being built right now
A bigger plan for the construction that’s taking place… God has a plan, hallelujah
We lift up His plan
Open, open, open heaven over the city
The atmosphere just right… every element… everything that is necessary for these changes to take place
It’s part of the changes, rearranging and restoration
Wholeness, wealth, health
Transfers into the body
Great cooperation with the body of Christ… it’s supernatural
Atmospheric changes… something like Easter, where the bells of the city would ring again
People being drawn to the churches…
A sound from heaven announcing a change about to take place
Miracles
