Lord teach me to pray, this should be the cry of every believer around the world. the Lord wants and His will is, for every believer to have a successful prayer life. Every believer is to have a passion and love for prayer; every believer is to see their prayers come to pass and to experience God in prayer. Even after you have learned much about prayer, it is the application of prayer, which is the most importation. every believer needs the burden of prayer. Although you become knowledgeable and skillful in prayer you will always need the Lord to teach you to prayer today. –(LK. 11:1, Psa. 144:1)

The application of prayer in 1980’s is not the application of prayer in 2014, and the application of prayer in 1990’s is not the application of prayer in 2014. Each believer needs a fresh application of prayer in 2014. The application of prayer is always advancing and we must advance with the Lord in the application of prayer in 2014 and 2015 etc. Although the guidelines of prayer always remain the same. –(2 Pet. 1:12, Rom. 1:11-12, Rev. 2:29)

Prayer is talking, fellowship, ongoing relationship with the Father, with Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. Begin your prayer life by talking with the Father and begin to see your life change. The Lord wants and will for every believer to be changed by prayer every time they pray. –(Eph. 3:20)

There is prayer time in the Throne Room, called Throne Room Time; this is the prayer time that every believer enjoys and this is the beginning of all other stages of prayer time. Then there is Warfare prayer: this is a time to do battle against the darkness and forces that are warning against you. The next prayer time is called prophetic prayer time: this is when the Holy Spirit gives you prophecy, or revelation to apply during your prayer time. The other prayer time is experience prayer time: this is the highest stage of prayer this prayer time is more an experience then praying. The last prayer time is action prayer time: this is a prayer time that is carry out with prophetic acts, acts of faith, and by prayer walking. –(Gen. 12:1-9, Josh. 6:1-27, Jam. 2:14-26)

These are called the five prayer sages, which are the Throne Room Prayer Stage, The Warfare Prayer Stage, The Prophetic Prayer Stage, The Experience Prayer Stage, and The Action Prayer Stage. There could be other prayer stages. –(Matt. 7:7-11)

The Holy Spirit makes intercession, He is our intercessor on the earth, and Jesus Christ is our intercessor in Heaven. Intercession is praying for your city, your nation, cities, nations, people groups, and on the global level, and praying for the lost. The Holy Spirit is called the Spirit of supplication; supplication is higher form of intercession, supplication is more impartant then intercession, since the Holy Spirit is also name the Spirit of Supplication. Supplication is praying for your local church, your apostle, your follow believers in Christ, the city church, the national church, the global church and the body of Christ. Supplication is praying for the Church, is for the church, and intercession is praying for the Kingdom of God, is for the church. This is why Jesus Christ is called our intercessor. –(1 Tim. 2:1, Heb. 7:25, Rom. 8:34,26-28, Zech. 12:10)
