Main Notes
We have something we do more than the enemy which is prayer.
Prayer is an invitation for God
With Prayer and petition present your prayer/ invitation to God
"If yoou ask God, you will receive" Jesus said
The point of prayer is not to get an answer
Is to be in complete warmness
Before you pray God hears you
When you are in distress you should pray
Prayer is the most important part of thankthulness
The only people who receive the Holy Spirit are those who pray
Confess your sins and pray for each other and you will be healed
God wants us to surrender every thing on our own.
Acknowledge that you can do nothing without God.
Prayer is not an option it should be a routine.
There should be a constant upward looking from your soul to God.
when you cultivate a lifestyle of prayer God will direct your steps.
You should pray all the time
If you pray a prayer and you expect there is nothing that is going to happen you have defeated yourself and you have prayed a prayer without faith
The easiest way for the enemy to defeat a child of God is to stop them from praying, to take your power of prayer.
Show courage with your prayer.
We have to pray because as a beleiver the enemy wants to fight you and without prayer it is hopeless for you.
The best way to fight against sin is to fight on our knees praying.
You should pray when you are in the battlefield.
