“Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee,”
Acts 26:17(KJV)
Our opening scripture is the rhema Word that God gave to Paul when he called him to preach the gospel. But Paul knew that when God gives His Word, we also have a responsibility in prayer to see that Word manifested. This was why when he was going into dangerous territories, he asked the Church to pray for him to be delivered from wicked and unreasonable men.(See 2 Thessalonians 3:1-2)
The Bible lets us know that when Daniel understood by the books of Jeremiah the Prophet the number of years that Israel ought to spend in the captivity, and discovered that they had fulfilled those number of years and yet they were still in captivity, he knew he had to pray in line with God's Word (rhema) concerning their deliverance for them to be set free.(See Daniel 9:2-22)
Daniel did not start complaining or crying helplessly, no. Instead he turned to prayer because he understood the responsibility of prayer in seeing God’s Word come to pass.
So, what would you do with all the glorious words and prophesies that God has given to us this year? Will you just sit there and wait for them to come to pass on their own? No, you have to use them in prayer and make them your confession, till you see everyone of them manifested in your life.
INSTRUCTION
Pray and thank the Lord for 'open doors,'(Revelation 3:7-8) 'open wombs,'(Genesis 21:2, 29:31, 30:22) and 'open hearts'(Acts 16:14).
For further study read:
Matthew 6:10, Acts 11:42, Psalm 110:3, Luke 24:45.
