Pray in the Spirit

“Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;” Ephesians 6:18(KJV)

As a child of God, it is important you recognize that there is a required way to pray. Our prayer should come from the spirit. God does not expect us to offer our prayers in the flesh. This is why the Bible admonishes us to pray always with every kind of prayer and request in the Spirit.

Therefore, not only should we pray from our spirit, we ought also to pray in the power of the Holy Spirit. You have to recognize that God has given us the Holy Spirit as our Helper. The Bible says in Romans 8:26-27, “Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.”

This shows you that when you yield to the power of the Holy Spirit in you to help you pray; especially as you pray in tongues as the Spirit gives you utterance, you will be able to effectively pray in line with the will of God concerning every request and with every kind of prayer. So one of the sure ways to effectively pray according to the will of God, is to pray in the Spirit.

PRAYER
Dear Father, I yield today to the power of the Holy Spirit to help me pray effectively according to the will of God concerning every request and with every prayer. May my prayers today ascend to You as incense sanctified of the Spirit, in Jesus Name. Amen.

For further study read:
1 Corinthians 14:2, 14, 18, Jude 1:20.

DOING THE WORD
Schedule a time today, either in the morning, at noon or in the evening to build up yourself on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost.
