“Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you: And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith. But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil.” 2 Thessalonians 3:1-3(KJV)
There is such a thing as a prayer covering or prayer protection. This is because prayer can avert evil from happening to you. For instance, there was a time I sensed a strong call to prayer for someone but I did not know who exactly was in danger. After I sent out text messages to some of our leaders to pray that night, one of them called me back later to thank me saying; he was glad he was a part of this ministry because his brother was coming back from Abuja that night and they had an accident but his brother was preserved and he was glad we prayed.
If you ever find out that you are having a very strong urgency to pray or to fast, know there is a reason for it. It is capable of effecting a change in heaven. Revelations 5:8 tells us that our individual prayers come before the Father, “And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.”
The question I will like to ask you today is this: Is your prayer in those vials carried by the twenty four elders in heaven? Is your prayer there? Or all the prayers you have ever prayed in this life is for yourself. Is all your prayers directed to you and your needs alone? Do you only pray the O God bless me, O God give me a husband, O God give me a job kind of prayer alone? Those are selfish prayers. Those are not the kind of prayers been presented here by the elders in heaven. The kind of prayers that are being presented here are prayers that are directed towards bringing the plan of God into manifestation on earth. Such prayers are like the prayers made by Daniel in Daniel 9:1-23.
Prayer:
Dear Father I pray that your will be established on the earth leading to the salvation of souls. May the Word of the Lord have free course and be glorified wherever it is preached today all around the world with signs following in Jesus Name. Amen.
