Prayer: Your fight Strategy

Ephesians 6:12

The Bible uses words like fight, contend and wrestle when it refers to the believer's battles.
Life is a fight.
Life is a wrestle to fulfill God's plan and destiny for our lives.

Every hero of faith had a fight on their hands and they all had key enemies who wanted to stop them. 
Eg. Gideon had the Amalekites, David had the Philistines,, Samson had the Philistines, Nehemiah had Samballat and Tobia, Jesus Christ has the Pharisees and religious authority of his day.

Everyone and everything God loves attracts Satan. 
Job 1:8-12
Life becomes a fight because you have an adversary who is intimidated and upset you are on the side of the Lord. 
1 Peter 5:8

Your adversary is not a human being though he uses human beings.
 Revelation 12:7-9
There are human beings who make themselves available for God to use, there are also those who make themselves available for Satan to use. 
Exodus 22:18
You are the one who determines who you will allow to use you. 
Joshua 24:15

Prayer is the major way a believer fights.
We fight by praying the Word of God.
 Acts 6:4
We fight by reminding God of His promises.
There are promises in God's Word for warfare, overcoming enemies, defeating Satan and tackling human agents of Satan.

The Bible is our battle manual and our right to win every battle.
The promises of God are for us to pray into our lives.
Prayer is our battle strategy.
Our prayers should be inspired by God's Word.
Our prayers should be fueled by God's Word.

By praying the wise way, you can cut down every spirit and enemy of your life. 
Ephesians 3:10

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.

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...
