Episode 83 - Prayer, Part 2 | The Well Life Podcast

Prayer: A conversation with God… and so much more!

What is Prayer?: Prayer is mankind exercising dominion on the earth by giving God the freedom to intervene in earth's affairs. Prayer is not an option for mankind, but a necessity.

Prayer is not just an activity, a ritual or an obligation. It is communion and communication that touches the heart of God.

INTERCESSORY PRAYER:

The way Paul was moved so deeply for the Jewish people gives us a clue as to how we can discern our own intercessory prayer assignments.

“Pay close attention to your tears, for your tears point you to your destiny.” Lou Engel

Pray passionately in the Spirit, as you constantly intercede with every form of prayer at all times. Ephesians 6:11

'I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity. This is good and pleases God our Savior, who wants everyone to be saved and to understand the truth. For, There is one God and one Mediator who can reconcile God and humanity—the man Christ Jesus. He gave his life to purchase freedom for everyone. This is the message God gave to the world at just the right time. ' 1 Timothy 2:1-6

'And in a similar way, the Holy Spirit takes hold of us in our human frailty to empower us in our weakness. For example, at times we don’t even know how to pray, or know the best things to ask for. But the Holy Spirit rises up within us to super-intercede on our behalf, pleading to God with emotional sighs too deep for words. God, the searcher of the heart, knows fully our longings, yet he also understands the desires of the Spirit, because the Holy Spirit passionately pleads before God for us, his holy ones, in perfect harmony with God’s plan and our destiny.' Romans 8:26-27

Jesus intercedes for us: …It is Messiah, who died, and moreover was raised, and is now at the right hand of God and who also intercedes for us. ' Romans 8:34

"If you want to lay hold of God’s willingness in prayer, just keep on asking God to keep His Word, counting on Him to work in unusual and unstoppable ways. "Mark Ashton

To pray is to be naked in the presence of God. By naked I mean totally empty of the masks we need or think we need to interact with people in the many scenarios in our lives.

Prayer is to experience God and try to make ourselves fit to his will, to discover his will in our lives.

'I love the Lord because he hears my voice and my prayer for mercy. Because he bends down to listen, I will pray as long as I have breath!' Psalms 116:1-2

Therefore I tell you, all the things you pray and ask for-believe that you have received them, and you will have them. And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven will also forgive you your wrongdoing. But if you don't forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your wrongdoing." (Mark 11:24-26 HCSB)

'One day soon afterward Jesus went up on a mountain to pray, and he prayed to God all night. ' Luke 6:12

'But each day the Lord pours his unfailing love upon me, and through each night I sing his songs, praying to God who gives me life.' Psalms 42:8
