Prayer Matters
Exodus 3:13-22
“So it was, when all the kings of the Amorites who were on the west side of the Jordan, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard that the LORD had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel until we had crossed over, that their heart melted; and there was no spirit in them any longer because of the children of Israel.” (Joshua 5:1) Today, pray that God will do a new thing in your life. Ask Him for a new thing, ask God that every representation of an enemy in your life will hear about this new thing that He has done for you. When the agent of hindrance in the way of the children of Israel heard about the new thing (that the Lord had dried water to make a way for the children of Israel) their hearts were melted. A melted heart is a failing heart; a heart that fails is a terminated heart, and that shall be the portion of the wicked ones that have taken a position to hinder you in life. Pray to God that every area of delay in your life will encounter deliverance and you will run ahead and not behind in every area of pursuit of life. 1 Kings 18:46, “Then the hand of the LORD came upon Elijah; and he girded up his loins and ran ahead of Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.” The same hand that answered for Elijah, and made him go ahead Ahab, will locate you this day, and every agent of opposition will fail to catch up with you. Ask for the hand of God that is favor, to move in your direction. Ezra 7:6, “this Ezra came up from Babylon; and he was a skilled scribe in the Law of Moses, which the LORD God of Israel had given. The king granted him all his request, according to the hand of the LORD his God upon him.” What are your requests on your land? Do you have any requests that are just coming up or ones that are pending? Ask God for the same hand that answered for Ezra, to answer on your behalf so that governments of the land will make a favorable move on your behalf. The children of Israel were in bondage for over four hundred years. In their bondage they could not envisage a way out, except by crying out to the Lord God of their fathers. The hand of God answered on their behalf, when God gave His word, “So I will stretch out My hand and strike Egypt with all My wonders which I will do in its midst; and after that he will let you go. 21 And I will give this people favor in the sight of the Egyptians; and it shall be, when you go, that you shall not go empty-handed.” In His hand there is deliverance and favor. As you have set eyes on these prayer points, the hand of God will answer on your behalf in Jesus’ name.
