PRAYER, REVIVAL & THE KINGDOM (transcript)

The Kingdom lifestyle is a prayer lifestyle. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Jesus didn't separate prayer from te Kingdom, rather He included the Kingdom in His prayers. Matthew 6:10
In the Kingdom of God, which we come into when we give our life to Christ, we access the things that are for us through prayer. Whether it is prophecies, promises, spiritual and material blessings, we need the power prayer generates to release them. James 5:16
The Kingdom is God's will for us, and prayer is God's will for us, so it goes to show that prayer and the kingdom go together and work together.
A Kingdom man or woman is an individual who is in the faith and who prays. Jesus is our role model, the number one man of the Kingdom and he prayed a lot.
If Jesus prayed a lot, we will have to pray a lot to.

Revival on the other hand is the Holy Spirit moving over an individual, a family, a church/ministry, a nation or a continent to do something great or new or spearhead a movement to God's glory.
The Bible makes it clear, infact it was the Words of Jesus, that there will be a revival of God's Kingdom message/gospel before He comes back. Matthew 24:14
So there must be a revival of the Kingdom messages Jesus brought globally before Jesus comes back for His church.
There is no doubt that we are in the end-times. We have already seen the manifestation of many of the 'signs' Jesus said we should look out for, for us to know we are in the end times.
If there is a time the church needs to return to the true gospel of the Kingdom it is now.

What is the connection between the Kingdom, Prayer and Revival?
There has to be a global revival of God's Kingdom message, but for people and the church to wake up to this there has to be lots of prayer.
The people who have to pray these prayers to bring this Kingdom revival are God's Kingdom people (saints).

A message shared at the mid week prayer service of The Light of Jesus Christ Assembly by Olutosin Ogunkolade, a Pastor-Teacher.

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18

The Importance Of The Anointing

Acts 10:38 The anointing is the presence of the Holy Spirit with a person. The anointing speaks, the anointing directs, and the anointing teaches people what they need to know and do. 1 John 2:27 You need the anointing. You can grow in the anointing. It is also possible to depart from the anointing. The anointing won't depart from you but you can depart from the anointing. You should remain in Him. It is worth it investing time to understand the your anointing, growing in your anointing and obeying the anointing. As you get to know a person better by spending time with them, so it is with the anointing in your life. With the anointing, you can't go wrong. The anointing strategically positions you in God's kingdom and in life. Jesus was full of the Holy Spirit. Colossians 2:9 Jesus had the anointing when He was here on earth. Jesus is our example of what our life can be when we have the anointing. Hebrews 12:2 Jesus knew His purpose. Luke 2:49 Jesus

Navigating A New Year

 Isaiah  42:16 Our text passage above shows us God is the one who shows us the path to take and leads us in new directions. Your path matters to God. The way you you choose to take is important to God. Your steps are seen by God and ordered by God. Psalm 37:23 The year ahead of you matters to God too. Luke 13:8-9 Each year God has given you the grace to witness, experience, and journey through is another opportunity to be fruitful for God. God wants you to make the most of the year ahead of you to His glory. Human beings do not always know the way and path to go, we can be limited in wisdom. History shows we do not always make the best choices. The year ahead of us will require knowing the way to go, having the wisdom to make the best decisions and choices. Deuteronomy 30:19 To successfully navigate the year we need to stay in God.. To navigate is to find your way through, it is following the right path to a specific destination.
