Dunamis Seeds Of Destiny 1 December 2024 Devotional By Dr. Paul Enenche: Praying With Results
TOPIC: Praying With Results (Seeds Of Destiny 1 December 2024)
SCRIPTURE: 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. – Romans 8:26.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Praying in the Spirit intensifies a person’s prayer life.
MESSAGE:
I welcome you to the month of December 2024, the month of completion and perfection. Just as the twelfth month completes a year, I decree that the LORD shall complete what He has started in your life, in Jesus’ Name.
It has been confirmed that the best way to begin anything is to begin with God (Genesis 1:1). And when God is left out at the beginning of anything, that thing is bound to fail. It is very important, therefore, to begin the Month of December with God.
Prayer is a major way to connect with God. Therefore, to begin a new month and experience new beginnings, it is expedient to begin with prayer.
Now, many people pray, yet they do not see the desired results of their prayers. This could be because they are ignorant of the effective ways to pray and see desired results.
In our study today, we shall be seeing boosters or amplifiers of prayer, which, when engaged, will enhance prayer results.
i. Praying in Tongues or Praying in the Spirit (Romans 8:26-27).
Praying in the Spirit intensifies a person’s prayer life. The Spirit helps us to pray when we do not know what and how to pray. When you are confronted with issues you don’t understand, pray in a language you don’t understand.
ii. Praying with fasting.
Fasting intensifies the force of prayer. It was by the power of fasting that Esther broke the conspiracy of Haman over the lives and destinies of the children of Israel in Shushan (Esther 4:16).
iii. Praying at midnight.
Most spiritual activities, whether negative or positive, take place at night. So, engaging the power of midnight amplifies a person’s prayer life. It was in the night season of prayer that Jacob’s life changed. (Genesis 32:24-28).
iv. Praying with sacrifice.
Sacrifice, which entails the release of one’s valuables and resources toward God, intensifies a person’s prayer life. Sacrificial prayer invokes God’s Presence. When Solomon sacrificed and made burnt offerings, God appeared to him and asked him what he wanted (1 Kings 3:4).
v. Praying with intercession.
This refers to praying for others out of deep love for them or praying for the establishment of God’s kingdom in a place. This type of prayer turned the captivity of Job when he prayed for his friends (Job 42:10).
Beloved, as you engage any of or all the prayer amplifiers above, you shall see great results in your life beyond your imagination this month.
Remember this: Praying in the Spirit intensifies a person’s prayer life.
ASSIGNMENT:
- Make up your mind to pray with results.
- Engage the prayer amplifiers listed above to pray with results.
PRAYER: Father, thank You for showing me the ways to pray with results. I receive the grace and discipline to pray effectively with results from today henceforth, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
