Prayer and Success

What success is to a man/woman who knows God is quiet different from what success is to an individual who doesn't know God. Genesis 39:2
A person who knows God and has a relationship with God is not trying to achieve success, that person is already successful. Colossians 1:27
To know God and have a relationship with God is success in itself. John 14:23
Part of our relationship with God is our prayer life. Philippians 4:6,7
This means prayer is part of our success as followers of Christ.
Good prayer comes about from continuous mediation on God's Word. Psalm 1:2
Our prayer life goes with our success.

Your prayer life is connected to your success.
The right prayer can makes a success out of you like it did for Jabeez. 1 Chronicles 4:10
Prayer affects the natural and spiritual realms. James 5:7
If you want things to change for you in the natural dimension - pray.
If you want a spiritual change - pray.

An individual connected to God is successful already, not because of their social status, their personal economy, material possessions or human connections and position but because of the finished works of Christ which believers are automatically beneficiaries of through Jesus Christ.
Due to the finished works of Christ, since Jesus finished His assignment on earth, there are blessings and benefits for believers to manifest and inherit. John 19:28
Where prayer comes in is that it keeps us connected to God and the blessings in God. This is success.

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...

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...
