Morning Prayer Summary for Thursday, July 25, 2019

Group entered into worship…

Pastor Ray…

I keep hearing the word “cares.” Taking a care that’s never been right to take. Cares… anxieties… questions… they’re leaving. They’re out. And as the cares move out, anxieties move away, I, saith the Spirit of God, will fill the vacuum with My ways, My words and the power of My precious Holy Spirit. That’s what it means when I said to you, “be being filled” with the Spirit. And My Spirit will cause you to triumph to never go back to that place where cares were taking place. But remain in the realm of victory, overcoming in every way.

Thank for that this morning, Lord. You’ve made a way for us. You’ve shown us the way. You’ve revealed it to us. You have made a way and revealed it to each of us. Thank You, Lord.

Beyond where we’ve been before… permanent change… rhema words of the Spirit…things we haven’t even heard before… or recognized about what they said… thank You, Lord… thank You for the blood of Jesus… what we put our hands unto prospers… when we lay hands on the sick, they are healed… we’re not going back… we will contend for the right ways… on and on and on we will continually flow… for it is a flow… door after door of more… breaking out of the old mold… the old ways… permanently changed, lifted… for the joy of the Lord is our strength… there is joy, strength… an abundance of it when we yield to it…

I have something I was to read. Part of it is a prophecy and part is a declaration by brother Copeland. There is something in this that I want us to get. I believe it will help us, especially in praying in tongues. This is from this week, July 22. It begins by brother Copeland sharing what brother Hagin said.

Kenneth Copeland

Kenneth Hagin said “The reason I was able to preach night and day and just go and go and go and go, is because I believed I received the refreshing and the rest for my spirit.” He said, “Once my spirit was rested, then my body would begin to rest, and I refreshed myself like that.” He said, “I didn’t want to go that hard, but back in those days, I had to.” But he said, “That’s the way I did it, praying in the spirit more than I prayed in English. But, I had to believe for it.”

Pastor Ray… He had to believe for it. It wasn’t just that he did it. He had faith for it. Then Kenneth Copeland had a prophecy. After he shared that about brother Hagin, he then spoke in tongues and gave a prophetic word.

Word of the Lord

There’s a lot of things that in which I would lead and guide you if I had the privilege of your faith working in those areas.

Now there are areas that you don’t even know how or why or when and the ins and outs of the problems and the answers. But if you would trust Me by praying in your supernatural language and by praising and worshiping in your supernatural language… if you would trust Me with it, then I will begin to reveal to your mind… because you see, if you pray that you interpret, then your mind becomes fruitful.

But as long as you’re just praying in the Spirit and not exercising and joining the mind with that, then your mind, as I said in My Word, saith the Lord, is not fruitful, but it should be.

Pastor Ray interjected…

1 Cor. 14:14, “For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful (KJV).”

Message translation: “So, when you pray in your private prayer language, don’t hoard the experience for yourself. Pray for the insight and ability to bring others into that intimacy. If I pray in tongues, my spirit prays but my mind lies fallow, and all that intelligence is wasted. So what’s the solution? The answer is simple enough. Do both. I should be spiritually free and expressive as I pray, but I should also be thoughtful and mindful as I pray. I should sing with my spirit, and sing with my mind. If you give a blessing using your private prayer language, which no one else understands, how can some outsider who has just shown up and has no idea what’s going on know when to say “Amen”? Your blessing might be beautiful, but you have very effectively cut that person out of it.”

We want our prayers to be effective and make a difference in other people’s lives. Of course. That’s what we’re doing today.

Word is continued…

But as long as you’re just praying in the Spirit and not exercising and joining the mind with that, then your mind, as I said in My Word, saith the Lord, is not fruitful, but it should be. And I will bless it and I will illuminate your mind as you pray in the Spirit and refresh your spirit and strengthen and rest your spirit. It will also rest and strengthen your mind. I’ll see to it, said the Lord, if you’ll trust Me.

Pastor Ray interjected…

Yesterday I had this but I didn’t read through it. We were talking about it at noon time in the chapel. If we just use our faith and believe when we’re praying in tongues, I believe this. At the beginning of our meeting, Rob started playing. Then he started praying. Then he started singing. Both praying and singing in the spirit and we joined him. But there were other words that the Spirit of God wanted to speak out in English. So if we had just listened, letting our minds be connected with what is happening by the Spirit and then speak those things out, it will bring help, direction. It could put a stop to something for somebody else. If we just be faithful. We’re just talking about one facet of this but it ministered to me when he said that we should make our minds be connected to what is happening in our spirit.

Word continues…

It’s always appropriate, it’s always allowed in the heavenlies. Therefore, it’s appropriate in the earth for you to worship in that language. And as you praise and worship Me in that language… And it will begin to broaden you spiritually.

Pastor Ray interjects…

It does broaden us spiritually. It works for us too. It’s not just for others. When we hear a word and we speak it out, that could be a key for us to take another step from glory to glory or a key for revelation and insight into what we’re to do. It’s always appropriate and always allowed in the heavenlies.

Word continues…

It will broaden your mind. It will cause you to think better than you used to think. And it will cause you to have an activity in the Spirit that you can no longer ignore.

And then things begin to take place on the inside of you that’s working for you and will help you in times of trouble.

Pastor Ray interjects…

We’re in the world. There’s a time of trouble in the world.

Word continues…

And these days are wonderful, saith the Lord. So begin to take full advantage of them, and you’ll know things and understand things that you didn’t know you know. (laughed) Your spirit knows more than you know! I said you know more than you know, because you’re a spirit man. Your spirit being has understanding that your mind hasn’t caught up with yet. He’s in there. “What? Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost?”

Let’s stand and give Him praise. Glory to God.

Pastor Ray…

We welcome Your presence today… we open our hearts.

I heard in my spirit the word “restart.” Like start back up. Maybe you’ve done this. Where you’ve prayed more in other tongues. Start back up in the praying in other tongues and believe to interpret what you’re saying. And when you hear a word in English or whatever language you speak, speak it out. That will be the Holy Spirit speaking to your spirit and your mind will identify it. You speak it forth. And it’s by the Spirit, he’ll do it. And things will be changed. We’re looking for that. Changes. Supernatural change. So when we take a step of faith that step in faith… this is the way I just saw it. When we take a step of faith, believe, then that step of faith causes increase. And it comes not only to us, for us, but it comes for others around us. Because that step of faith brought more increase of the presence of the Holy Spirit. And we understand more. That’s the spirit of seeing and knowing. And it’ll operate more and more to a greater degree. And those around us will begin to hear it too. Then they’ll step over into it, like we just read here. By the Holy Spirit…

I will bless you. I will illuminate your minds as you pray. And there will be a refreshing, not just in our spirits but our minds will begin to rest in it.

And just like brother Hagin said, he could go and go and go and way up until the very end of his time on earth. He was always going. But by speaking and speaking and worshiping in other tongues, more and more, then he would pray in his English language, that he walked over, so to speak, into a place of greater rest. But his mind took on the rest also.

Thank You for the rest in You, that is so filled that nothing can stop us. And no weapon formed against us could prosper. But that we would overcome because of the words of our testimony. And we keep on testifying. And we never shrink back or sit down. But we keep speaking words of edification, words of life and bring ministry to those that hear it.

Rob, I want us to go down this road for a minute. I want you to start singing in tongues while you play. We’re going to flow with him, and step up. I believe there is an anointing here this morning for us individually for us to begin to operate in this way when we’re either praying, singing in other tongues. Our minds will begin to hook up to the words we are praying in the spirit. There will be illumination and revelation. Some of it will be about the times that are to come. Steps that we’re to take. Words we’re to speak. Connections we’re to make. Relationships. Maybe family members.

Rob begins to play and sing in the spirit…

Group joins him…

Rob speaks forth…

Stand tall… stand mighty… stand courageous in all that you are against… because I am your God. I stand with you. In fact, you can rest in Me and we will go to high places. And you’ll be just a spectator looking down at those situations that so vexed you in the past. So step out in Me. And I’ll take you places. I’ll let you just be a spectator over those situations.

Pastor Ray…

When Rob said that by the Spirit, places where we could enter into and look down on situations that would cause a frown, situations that are all around. So what I saw was as we’re lifting Him up, He’s beckoning us and saying, come on up and take your seat in heavenly places with Me. And you’ll see things the way I see them. And then when you see it like that, you’ll say it the way My Word says it.

So there are new revelations. There are new ways of seeing things that will bring rest to your spirit and rest to your natural man. ♪ So take your place. Take your place. Your heavenly place. Take your position. It’ll work in your race. For you’ve been called. For you’ve been called and you’re anointed and equipped to walk it out. It is one step at a time. Keep moving. Because there’s another step. And there’s greater and greater. ♪ Soon those things on the earth will grow way dim. And they will disappear! For My Word says so. For you’ve entered into a different realm. It’s the realm of My Spirit, saith the Lord. The Holy Ghost way! The Holy Ghost plans! Eyes to see it. Ears to hear it. And feet that know the way to walk. Ho, ho, ho! So go forth and take your place. Go forth!

Rob continues…

The equipping… that you desire… you have the equipping… I provided that equipping for you… trust in that equipping… step out in that equipping… those things I’ve called you to do I’ve also equipped you to do… so don’t shy away… step out in Me… you can trust, “I’ve got you.” … nothing is too hard for Me… because I have equipped you… I’ve called you… I’ve appointed you… so don’t shy away… just step out… I’ll catch you… I’ll hold onto you… you just need to trust and step out… step out… ha, ha, ha… for great things are ahead… great and mighty things… for those who will trust in Me…

Pastor Ray…

I want to declare a couple scriptures. Psalms 91. Because we’ve made the Lord our refuge, the most high our dwelling place. He’s our refuge. You are our dwelling place, Lord. Then we can say there shall no evil befall me, nor any plague, nor any calamity come near my house. Because we have set our love upon the Lord, therefore He delivers us. He sets us securely on high because we know His name. We call upon the Lord and He answers. God is with us in trouble. He delivers and honors us with long life. He will satisfy us and shows us His salvation all the time. God has not given us the spirit of timidity or fear. He has given us a spirit of power, love, and a calm and well balanced mind. Discipline and self-control, meaning our mind is connected to our spirit man. So our mind, we speak over you today and say, “Line up to the Word. You are well balanced and calm.”
