Prayer summary for Friday, May 06, 2016

Jerre shared song…

As Pastor Ray was preaching on Wednesday night, I got this. It’s not a song but a word, I believe “a word of wisdom.”

♪ I’m gonna flip on the light switch, praying in the Holy Ghost… We’re going to flip on the light switch, praying in the Holy Ghost… Come on now flip on His light switch, praying in the Holy Ghost… [Singing in the Spirit] Well darkness has to flee when we’re praying in the Holy Ghost… So we will flip on the light switch, praying in the Holy Ghost … Words of wisdom come when we’re praying in the Holy Ghost… and times of refreshing come when we’re praying in the Holy Ghost… so I will flip on the light switch praying in the Holy Ghost… ♪

Pastor Ray shared…

Jerre, you just sang my message for next Wednesday! I woke up with it this morning! When we yield ourselves to the Spirit, the way the Holy Spirit will manifest is through a word of wisdom, or a word of knowledge. I woke up thinking that I needed to teach on the benefits of praying in the Holy Ghost. When you said, “Flip on the light switch,” we don’t have to be any natural place on the earth to pray in the Holy Ghost. We are the ones that flip it on. The Holy Ghost is always sending out that supply, so to speak. We just need to tune into it. So we’re going to sing that a little longer and see ourselves just flipping it on full blast.

Jerre shared…

While you were ministering, I saw myself going into a dark room and flipping on the light. The Gospel is not meant to be complicated or “heady.” It’s very simple. You yield to the Spirit and what comes? Light! And it dispels the darkness. So when you flip on the light switch, praying in the Holy Ghost, light comes. It just comes. You flip it on. And light comes. Now, do we know exactly what kind of light is going to come? No. Because God is God but we always know that it’s going to be oh… so… good…

♪ Come on and flip on the light switch, praying in the Holy Ghost…♪ Come on! Let’s pray in the Holy Ghost…

Group follows Jerre singing in other tongues…

Jerre shares…

You know we don’t have to pray in the Holy Ghost “religiously.” There are so many rivers of praying in the Holy Ghost. Do we pray sometimes slow and beautiful and flowery? Yes, but sometimes we pray other ways—diversity of tongues and different sounds.

Barb shared…

As soon as we started singing in tongues, it took me back to Andy Griffith. There used to be this family (the Darlings). They all played an instrument. Remember that? One had a washboard, another was on the tub. As soon as we started singing, it was like everybody picked it up. It was such an immediate flow. And the Holy Ghost said, okay here we all are and we’re all part of this band. Like the Darlings all came together and they grabbed their instruments and started jamming. Everybody was good at their instrument.

As soon as Jerre started, there was an immediate flow and it sounded like the Darlings to me. And the Holy Ghost said, “Everybody in here has an instrument, so connect.” That’s how you flip on the switch. Right here! (pointing at her mouth) Use your instrument, your voice. Maybe you’ve never sang in the spirit. All you need to do is just connect with the music and let it flow. If you don’t want to sing, then just pray in tongues. But it’s such an easy flow and the Holy Ghost will just take you to such amazing places.

And while you’re singing, He’ll start downloading to you. I was here yesterday morning and they were praying and the Lord began downloading. I said, “Lord, I’m trying to pray. Can you slow it down? I’m trying to pray with the group here.” So everybody connect with your instrument. You might think, “I don’t know if I’m singing right.” It doesn’t matter. Just flow! Whatever comes up, just let it go. Everybody grab your washtub or harmonica or whatever it is and get in the flow!

Jerre continued…

♪ We’re going to flip on the light switch, praying in the Holy Ghost… Light comes when I’m praying in the Holy Ghost… Crabby devils go when I’m praying in the Holy Ghost… ♪

I just heard the word “Somali” while singing in tongues. There’s an assignment here. We take the assignment, Lord. Our prayers avail much here in this place… Thank You for the release, Lord.

Dave shared…

When it comes to praying in the Holy Ghost, one has to disengage your mind and allow your spirit to do the work. Your mind thinks about the things around you and what to pray for what you think in your head you should pray for. But your spirit is connected to the Most High. He’s the one that speaks things to come. He’s the one that lets you know what’s coming up and what you need to pray for. He’s the one that lets you into those places. So you need to disengage your mind and allow your spirit to have ascendancy. “Your spirit wants to pray. It wants to go out there with Me. It wants to hook up with Me. It wants to connect with Me. It wants to know Me.”

We have a “know-er” inside of us. And that’s your spirit. And it’s the “real” you. The real you is not your mind. The real you is your spirit. And your spirit drags along your mind a lot of times and your mind doesn’t want to go there and it fights. But that’s what this praying in the Holy Ghost is all about. It defies the knowledge of man. It defies the wisdom of man. It defies what the mind thinks. And it enters into a supernatural place and allows you to start working in that place that maybe your mind does not want to go. And when it starts working in that place where you mind doesn’t want to go, eventually it starts going up stream. And eventually it starts going into your head and you start believing what’s in your heart instead of what’s in your mind.

So allow your spirit to work with the Holy Ghost. And He will bring those things to remembrance; He’ll bring up the things you’ll need to pray. He’ll bring up the things that will encourage you to stay in that place of faith, that place where you’ve been discouraged before. He’ll bring you to a place where you can believe. He’ll bring you to a place where you can see yourself whole. You can see yourself well. You can see yourself provided for. That work is going on in your spirit. As you pray, it’s coming out. It’s stirring up in your spirit. And it will come in agreement. Your mind will come in agreement with your spirit. As you pray it out in Jesus’ name.

Dave began to sing in the spirit and group followed…

Dave interjected…

So as we push through in that place and as we keep working in that place with our spirits, our minds will get in agreement and pretty soon the thing you couldn’t believe, now you can believe.

Thank You, Father, for the word of knowledge and the word of wisdom. Thank You for the gifts of the Spirit, the encouragement of the Holy Ghost within our hearts to see… The entrance to the gifts of the Spirit is in this place. No more for you to be concerned about things ahead of you. Just pray in the Holy Ghost!

Group continued to sing in the spirit…

Jerre interjected…

Some may be having trouble flowing with the corporate singing in the spirit. There are melodies within the leader’s melody. It’s not the same one that he has but it is one that kind of skirts around his melody and that is a corporate flow in what we’re flowing in right now. You don’t have to be musical. He encompasses us about with songs of deliverance. Find one or two notes that go with where our leader is and sing those notes.

Dave shared…

I have something for somebody here. They’ve been struggling with trying to get hold of something with their faith and they’ve been discouraged because it just hasn’t taken place. But the Holy Ghost is saying this is the place to see that come to pass. This is the place to finish your race, praying in the Holy Ghost this way. You may start out in your mind and you may not feel like it but if, by faith, you step out and start praying in the Holy Ghost, then those things will come to you, those things you need to know…

Group continues to sing in the spirit…

Dave shared…

So as you step into this place and you start praying in the Holy Ghost, this is what comes forth. Now the word of wisdom and the word of knowledge start flowing. After you pray and you feel like something’s changed, well that’s a word of knowledge. You know something has changed. And you may not think to yourself that the Holy Ghost gifts of the Spirit operate in your life, but as you pray in the Holy Ghost you may not be able to put a label on it but that is the Holy Ghost, the word of knowledge. It is the spirit of grace that brings you to know that you know that you know that you know. And then He starts showing you things to come and getting you excited about the future and getting you pumped up about the future where your day is filled with joy and excitement and you’re headed into the day because you know that you got a plan and purpose. And that purpose will cause you to bring you to completion. It will bring you to the end of your race. It’ll cause you to come to that place. In that place, you will finish your race.

Group continues to sing in the spirit…

Dave shared…

Sometimes we tend to compare ourselves in a way, “That’s brother so and so. He operates in that gift.” Or “So and so has been doing this for a while. They operate in that gift.” Well, it’s the same Holy Spirit that lives in you that lives in that brother, that pastor, that minister you admire. He’s operating in something because it’s the Holy Ghost. The same spirit is in you! And He will start letting you see it the way they see it. And then pretty soon, you’re not looking after men to get your word of knowledge and your word of wisdom, you’re not looking for direction from people, but you’re looking for direction from inside you. The Bible says the spirit of man is the candle of the Lord. It is the place where God brings and distributes that which is needed in your hour of need. It is the thing that will bring a completion to your life. It is the thing that will get you to the place where you need to be. A place where you’re happy, filled, healed, and whole, and provided for.

♪ I’m going to flip on the light switch, praying in the Holy Ghost… The supernatural flows when I’m praying in the Holy Ghost… ♪

Jerre interjected…

I just heard this in my spirit, “the secrets prayed.” The Word says we don’t know how to pray, but when you pray in the Holy Ghost, you pray the perfect prayer. So that’s another we can add. Secrets! Secrets are prayed.

Dave shared…

Secrets God wants to keep away from the Devil. When we’re praying in the Holy Ghost, God is saying things that the Devil has no place.

Pam shared…

That reminded me of a time when we were in China. It was right after a friend went to heaven and I thought, “Why am I going on this trip when my heart was so sad missing my friend.” But God had a purpose with us partnering with the Holy Spirit. There was a lady that traveled a couple hours on a train from another province to come to the meeting. We started praying in the Holy Spirit and I laid my hands on her and started to pray. When you talked about secrets the Devil doesn’t know, I remember how I prayed out everything that she had been seeking the Lord about, that she didn’t know what to do. She had an underground church in her home and so you want to keep it secret, right? So I prayed out in the Spirit everything that she needed to do to go forward. So it was exciting to partner with the Holy Spirit and pray out those things only the Father knows! That’s a comfort to me. He knows us better than we know ourselves. When we’re a little confused or sad or down, you just start praying in the Holy Ghost and you pray out the perfect plan and will of the Father.

Jerre…

Light comes!

♪ More and more as we see the day approach, we will flip on the light switch praying in the Holy Ghost… ♪

Dave…

Just one last thing. While Pam shared, the Holy Ghost said “Can’t fight what you don’t know about.” The enemy can’t fight you if he doesn’t know something about you. So when you pray in the Holy Ghost, you’re praying out that plan and the details, he can’t fight about those details. So the resistance is a lot less. You’re not fighting against him. He doesn’t even know what’s going on. That’s a good strategy. Thank you for coming today. It’s going to be a great weekend. Enjoy the day!
