Pray earnestly

“… The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].”
James 5:16(AMP)


Today, I encourage you to always pray from your heart, that is from your spirit, because your heart is the center of life. It is the life center. Therefore, whenever you pray from your heart, you are releasing life from your spirit into your body and to all that your prayer is directed towards.

This is what happens especially when you pray in the Spirit in other tongues. As you spend time praying in other tongues, you will feel power flowing in you. Remember, that the Bible says in Acts 1:8, “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: …” So as you pray concerning any issue in the Holy Ghost, you are stirring up that power that is already inside of you and directing it to produce results on your behalf concerning what you are praying about. The Bible says in our opening scripture that such praying makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working].

Therefore, if you want your prayers to be effectual and fervent, you must learn to always pray the will of God with your heart. The Bible says in James 5:17, “Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.”

We can produce the same results today, if we follow the same principle and pray earnestly from our hearts.

PRAYER
Dear Father I thank you for giving me the gift of the Holy Spirit who enables me to pray the will of God at all times, thank you Father, for I am filled with power right now by the Spirit of God to effect changes in every area of my life, in Jesus Name. Amen.

For further study read:
Romans 8:26-28, Ephesians 6:18.

DOING THE WORD
Take some time to pray in the Spirit and direct the power of God to any area of your life where you want to see a change.
