The POWER in PRAYER

So often we think of prayer as a means of blessinig our food or wishing someone else well being, health, and prosperity. Well I have found that prayer is so much more!!! Even when I don't feel like praying I must urge myself to do so!! For this is my way of communication with my Creator, YHWH the one who sustains me. Throughout the Bible many men and women prayed hoping that the Lord would hear their cries, requests, and praise!

How often do you talk to God? It should not just be when you are going through but also when things are well. Lately it seems all hell has been breaking loose all around me. Yet I pray... I have always prayed and often times I feel God does not hear me..Do I stop Praying? NO!!!! I pray more!! For I know the word of YHWH tells me he hears me.. Sometimes there is silence and an answer may not come right away. YHWH just wants me to wait and be STILL. Being still does not mean I do nothing... I must still actively seek the face of my Father and call on my Savior Jesus Christ for he is my Advocate. He shall stand in the gap for me..Praying unceasingly because the Holy Spirit will translate my moans and groans unto the Father..

The bible gives us many examples of those who prayed for the upliftment of others even during the midst of their own struggles. As well, through their prayer they exemplified the love of Christ and Power of Prayer. Even requests of Prayer in the bible showed the expectant Power of Prayer.

Ephesians 6:19-20
Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should....Request by Paul

Acts 4:31
After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.... The spirit of YHWH honors prayer

Colossians 1:9-14
9For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. 10And we pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, 11 being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully 12giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light. 13For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins

I guess what I am trying to say is NEVER STOP PRAYING!! It doesn't have to be this long drawn out prayer. LORD HELP!! two words thats a prayer! Of course we want to give honor and Praise unto God when we pray. Thanking Jesus for being our advocate for it is in his name that we pray and it is only by him that we reach the father..Allow the Holy Spirit to overtake you and dwell within, for then you open the spiritual door for so many blessings. Confess your burdens, repent of your sin knowing and unknowingly but most of all take the time to talk to your Creator and allow YHWH to speak to you.. Which means at some point you must be quiet and listen. And Of course last but not least when you mostly feel like giving up and you feel praying aint worth nothing, cause it won't change anything...CONTINUE to pray until SOMETHING happens. My dear brothers and sistahs PUSH your way through and PRESS your way into the prescence of God!

Easier said then done I know but remember Joy shall come soon Trouble don't last always.. As I give you this word I minister to myself as well.. Please Pray for me and I will pray for you. Peace and Blessings FB Fam!

Ephesians 3:16-21
I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

20Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, 21to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.

The gift of YHWH is Revelation of Himself

Today I find strength in knowing that YHWH loves me so much to empower me through his word and the lives of others whom YHWH has annointed. The word of Most High is forever revealing within the very mysteries of the bible. It will only be revealed when one seeks YHWH. YHWH will reveal these things unto you because you thirst after it!!

As the words says in 1Corinthians 2:9 However, as it is written: "No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him."

Unless God reveals himself to us we will not know. We cannot read enough...YHWH must reveal it to us!Know that today your very existence is a mystery within the mind of God. Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God. If you cannot see God you are not yet pure... We have to take time to have relationship with God. More than you ever have before. It's time out for playing church! You don't have time for that no more!! We are at WAR! You cannot fight if you are unprepared!!

We must be strong in YHWH for he is greater in us than he that is in the world. Stop wallowing in your mess. Depression, infections, afflictions...STOP!! You must make the difference you have the POWER!
As stated in Luke 10:19 Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

We must be ever present about our will. When YHWH says pray, PRAY!! When YHWH says fast, FAST!! We must denounce the spirits that say no to YHWH!! We were created to worship YHWH! We have authority over the advesary because YHWH created us to do what the adversary chose not to do!! Therefore causing the enemy to rise up against us because of the POWER YHWH has given us.

Ephesians 6:11
Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

Only when we allow YHWH to reveal his mysteries unto us, only then can we operate in the position we were created to for!! Be ye not afraid... We have the POWER to turn things around in our lives. To speak LIFE and make it happen... Today make the choice if you will let YHWH reveal his mysteries unto you. As said in Jeremiah 29:13, And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.

You have authority walk in it!! I don't know if this will touch the heart of anyone today but after watching 5 Juanita Bynum youtube video series I felt compelled to share the word YHWH had given her in my own way...Reaching out to those who are close to me. I pray that it will add unto you Great POWER and Revelation within your day today!! Be blessed and know that YHWH is YHWH!!

Shalom

You are My Everything and I trust you!!

Yes there are times when I have looked the other way
Expecting someone else to take your place
Little did I know, no one could fill your shoes
Your imprint in my life has changed me so

There will never be another to touch me the way you do
Your very essence fills my soul, gives me chills as I grow
The way you listen to me even when you know I've done wrong
You allow me to enter in with open arms

You never question me or constantly remind me of my wrong doings
Yet you forgive me while yet warning me that I will reap what I sow
I can't help but know tis true for what I put into the ground shall also rise
You tell me no worries about life, clothes, food or shelter

For you have my best interest at hand and will make sure I'm ok
You care for me even when others turn their backs on me
When my mother and father have forsaken me yet you are there
I trust you for your word stands true..You never change

You are the same yesterday, today and forevermore
Today I just wanna say THANK YOU!! For loving me inspite of me
Even when I didn't return the love yours still shown through
You are simply AMAZING what can I say???

Except You are my EVERYTHING and I trust YOU!!
Abba, YHWH, Jehovah, Elohim, Adonai, El Shaddai
Yeshua, Jesus, The Christ, Emmanuel, The Way
Ruach Elohim, Holy Spirit, Ruach Ha-kodesh, Ruach Adonai

You are Incredible, Magnificent, Marvelous
You are my everything and I love you
Forever my soul shall be intertwined with you
Thank you lover of my soul..I bless your name

Yours Truly,

Your chosen one, daughter, servant, humble one...

So many days and nights have gone by
And yet daily I am constantly trying to reach
The next level in you...Well Father I have now

Me with the power of the Holy Ghost, The Ruach Elohim, Shekinah

Fill me with your spirit YHWH this shall be the only way
I can even stand in this life of mine... Endow me
Annoint me from the top of my head to my toes
Allow me to tap into the power and authority you created me with

So many of us are lost and don't know that You are THE WAY
Not religion, going to church, or even doing the work of the church
It is having a relationship with you that is the laying foundation
Abba if you ENDOW me then the people will see....

Fill me Lord let your light REFLECT in me
You are Strong and Mighty and yet when I am weak
You are my strength...We are your creation, we need you
So fill us with your spirit, Fill me with your spirit

There is none like you, there will never be another
You are the very reason why I exist...You are the reason
I write, I sing, I speak, I live, I breathe..Endow me with your Spirit
Thank you Lord for your fresh annointing which anews everyday..
Thank you Lord for loving me

You are Wonderful, Magnificent in every way...
HOLY, HOLY, HOLY, LORD ALMIGHTY...ALPHA & OMEGA
I am not ashamed of my LOVE for you, My relationship with you
For it is the very reason why I have survived the evils of this world

Endow Me Lord.. Like only you can, to heal the sick, to cast out devils
To speak Life to my life and others, To open blind eyes to see you,
Endow me...Lord I need to feel your spirit daily, Endow me....

I am yours, I surrender my will to yours
I am no longer me but you that live in me
Endow me Jesus!!! Endow me... You reign 4-eva
In my life I shall know no other... The Father, Son, & Spirit

The perfect trinity, mind, body & soul
All praises unto you Most High
Peace and Blessings

A Call to Persevere

But, dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold. They said to you, "In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires." These are the men who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.
But you, dear friends, build yourselves up in your most holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit. Keep yourselves in God's love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.

Be merciful to those who doubt; snatch others from the fire and save them; to others show mercy, mixed with fear—hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh.

Doxology
To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy— to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.
