Prayer, Faith & Authority

James 5:16

God gives authority to those He has called to certain spiritual offices.
There's also an authority He has given to everyone who is in the Lord.
Ephesians 1:18-23
Authority and faith are connected.
Your authority works by knowledge and faith.
You need knowledge to know you've been given authority.
You need faith to use and make your authority work.
Mark 11:23

Your authority reflects in your prayer.
Your authority also shows in answer to your prayer.
Prayer generates power.
Prayer supplies the power that makes your authority potent.

Prayer, faith and authority are connected.
Your authority makes you confident to use your faith.
The manifestation of your faith shows your authority, and the combination of your authority and faith reflects on the way you pray.
Your faith and your authority makes your prayer potent while your prayer generates spiritual power which shows you have authority since there is no authority without power!

Authority is delegated power.
Luke 10:19
God has delegated His body (church) to use the power of His Spirit and the authority in the name of Jesus to overcome, to win, to get results and to glorify God.
Knowledge is so important in God's kingdom.
What you know about God's kingdom is what will work for you here on earth.
Colossians 2:3
The teaching ministry of Jesus Christ was potent and largely built on knowledge Jesus Christ has of God's kingdom.
We need sound, truthful, spiritual knowledge to be effective for God.

We need to know as people in Christ Jesus that we have authority, the faith of God in us and the ability to generate power by prayer.

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.

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...
